This upcoming Sony flagship might be available with single and dual-SIM variants according to the regions and will be IP65/IP68 certified that makes it a water resistant smartphone. The device is expected to be measured at 157 × 78× 8.1 mm and is expected to weigh around 159 grams. It will obviously have a fingerprint scanner but we still have to wait to know its exact placement as the Sony devices always have a fingerprint scanner on the side mounted power buttons.

This device is also expected to have a 3210 or 3240mAh battery that will have Qnovo Adaptive charging support for fast charging. For more details, we have to wait for the MWC 2018 event where the company might showcase the device.
