Sony Xperia ZU image surfaces ahead of official announcement

We just saw Sony tease a July 4th unveiling of what looks much like its upcoming Xperia Z Ultra aka Xperia ZU or the Togari phone, and now we have a leaked image of the upcoming device in all of its phablet glory.

The Sony Xperia ZU is expected to be a gigantic device coming closer to the sizes of a small tablet rather than a big phone. With a 6.44” display isn’t this just way too big? Or is it just the right size for media consumption. There are always two points of view, but we’re curious to hear your thoughts about this.

So far, rumors have painted the following picture of the Xperia ZU in terms of technical specs, and it’d be sporting the latest hardware available:

• 6.44” 1080 x 1920 pixel display
• Android 4.2.2 Jelly Bean
• Qualcomm Snapdragon 800 with quad-core processor clocked at 2.2GHz, 2GB of RAM
• 8MP Exmor RS rear camera, 2MP front camera
• 16GB internal storage expandable via microSD cards
