Leaked Sony Xperia C6 photos show a gargantuan handset with a no-compromise front camera
27

Faced with declining smartphone sales, Sony adopted a conscious shift towards profitability instead of raw sales numbers in the past couple of years. However, although Sony's mobile arm is now focusing on fewer devices, the company does not fully adopt Apple's premium-only strategy. Perhaps Sony's most interesting non-premium smartphone series is the Xperia C line-up, which consists out mid-range devices with the uncommon feature of a front-facing flash.
Since then, the rumored Xperia C6 (or perhaps C6 Ultra) has fallen off the radar. However, today's leak brings the phone back into attention and also raises some interesting questions.
Other elements that the photos reveal are a curved back and a curved front panel, a combination that reminds us of Sony's upcoming Xperia XA, as well as very slim side bezels, which make the phone look similar to the Sony Xperia C6 Ultra.
Previous rumors have suggested that the Xperia C6 will land with mid-range specs such as a 1080p display and an octa-core MediaTek Helio P10 processor. At the moment, there's no pricing or release date information to discuss, but we'll let you know as soon as we learn more.
