Alleged first photo of the Sony Xperia ZU aka Togari phablet leaks, kitten in tow

First we learned the scoop that Sony might be unveiling its Togari phablet at a June 25th press event in Berlin, then we heard it might be called Sony Xperia ZU, and now an alleged picture of the device has leaked out, courtesy of a photo that user @latter21, who seems to work for Sony, has sent over to some dedicated forums.

It's no doubt a thin device, rumored to be 6.5mm, but balancing a kitten on it means it will not be for the faint of heart when it comes to size, which can be expected from a 6"+ phone. Here's the full scoop on the latest specs speculation: a 6.44" Full HD Triluminous display, a 2.3 GHz quad-core MSM8974 Qualcomm Snapdragon 800 chipset, 2 GB RAM, IP58 certified, 8 MP camera and Android 4.2.2.

The phone will allegedly be waterproof, and come with a stylus, as well as the ability to accept input from regular pencil or pens even. We can't wait for more leaks to trickle in then.

It simply hints the phone might have a pussy bundled with.

come on, that's not a 10'' tablet, can't you see the size compared to the hand? I have a nexus 7 and I can tell you that that thing is slightly smaller, yet it seems bigger than the Z (phone, not tab).

phablet of course judging from the picture, the thickness is almost one third of his last finger, im guessing ZU should fall below 6mm, if not 5mm... And sony indeed doesnt fail in designing, just wish they put more effort on some essential aspects as well, like battery, software features..

Better have a large battery, stupid companies try to shave a millimeter off instead of an extra 2-3hrs of screen time

Oh my god wendy, GO AWAY!! 6 months ago, you were raving on and on about how you are SO gonna get the xperia Z and you were loving the Sony brand. I dont understand you anymore. Are you here just to find attention? Cause i think you are getting some, along with a repetition, a bad one. Can i ask kindly for a mod to remove her and to stop her from embarrassing herself. It cringes me to watch. Back on topic: Either that is one massive phone or a really small kitten, i really can't tell

Guess we need to wait for June 25 to see what that is, but for now, if it is a phone, that is impressive.... It will be nice to see how this compares to the next in line note phablet, then Note 3.... Sony has really stepped it up this year....
