Sony Xperia Z and Xperia ZL leak online ahead of CES 2013 launch

Sony’s answer to the Samsung Galaxy S3 and HTC One X – known as the Xperia X and Xperia ZL – have leaked online ahead of their scheduled CES 2013 launch.

Previously known as the Yuga and Odin, Engadget got hold of some official press shots of the devices ahead of the company’s big CES 2013 reveal.

Sony promised that 2013 would see it come out guns blazing in a bid to close the gap between itself and Samsung. And looking at the specs for these two devices, as well as their respective styling, it seems that Sony has made good on its promise.

Both devices supposedly pack the same features, which include a 5-inch 1080p LCDs, quad-core 1.5GHz Snapdragon S4 Pro processors, with 2GB of RAM and Adreno 320 graphics, along with a 13-megapixel Exmor RS sensor on the rear, reports Into Mobile.

What’s weird about this rumour, however, is that both phones carry the same spec. That’s a bit weird in our book – surely Sony would want to differentiate the models and offer two distinct price points?

God knows –– hopefully Sony will explain everything in Las Vegas next week. It'd also be good to know what version of Android these guys will be runnning at launch as well. 

Obvisouly we'd like some Key Lime Pie action, but seeing that Sony is often slightly behind the curve in this regard we've got a feeling we'll have to make do with Jelly Bean at launch with the option for an upgrade at a later point in time. 

Stay tuned for our live CES 2013 coverage to find out more.
