Snapdragon 650-powered Sony Xperia Z6 Lite coming next year?

Not long ago, we heard that Sony might be getting ready to release no less than five different Xperia Z6 smartphones: a 4-inch Xperia Z6 Mini, a 4.6-inch Xperia Z6 Compact, a 5.2-inch Xperia Z6, a 5.8-inch Xperia Z6 Plus, and a 6.4-inch Xperia Z6 Ultra. Now, we're hearing that an Xperia Z6 Lite may also be in the making.

According to Chinese website Mobile-dad, this alleged Xperia Z6 Lite should sport a 5-inch display (unknown resolution), while having a metal-made rear cover, and being powered by a hexa-core Qualcomm Snapdragon 650 processor (formerly known as Snapdragon 618). Reportedly, the Z6 Lite could cost around $385, and might be announced at the same time with the other members of the Xperia Z6 family, possibly in May 2016.

Of course, there's no way to confirm any of the details above. Not for now. However, sooner or later, Sony will (most likely) launch an Xperia Z6 series. We'll just have to wait and see how many smartphones this is going to include.
