Fresh images of the Sony Xperia Z leak before announcement, show a funky power key

Leave it to the vast prairies of the Chinese tech blogosphere to leak something in full bloom minutes before its announcement, and the Sony Xperia Z is the next scalp on the belt here.

We were wondering what that round chrome button serves for in the last preview of the phone that appeared, and now we have our answer - it is the power/lock key, ergonomically situated right under your thumb.

The rest of the specs get reconfirmed by this latest leak, too - 5" Full HD Mobile BRAVIA screen, quad-core S4 Pro, 13 MP Exmor RS camera, and Asahi Dragontrail glass body. Now the only thing to wait for is the actual unveiling an hour from now.
