In news that will pleaseSonyphone fans, the flagshipSony Xperia 2(orSony Xperia 5 Plusas it might be called), will be landing atMWC 2020in late February. Or at least Sony is holding an event then, and the Xperia 2 will almost certainly make an appearance.
Several tech websites have received an invite to a Sony press conference on February 24 at MWC (as shared byGSMArena), and while the invite doesn’t say what will be shown, we’d expect the company will have something high profile up its sleeve if it’s bothering to hold a press conference.
Plus, theSony Xperia 1was announced at MWC 2019, as well as theXperia 10and10 Plus, so we’d fully expect new devices at this year’s event.
Of course, Sony might well unveil other devices too. The mid-rangeSony Xperia 6 has been rumoredfor one, so don’t be surprised if there are yet more handsets and maybe even a tablet, headphones, or other type of device.
WithSamsungset to get ahead of MWC with a February 11 announcement for theGalaxy S11, the Sony Xperia 2 could end up being one of the main highlights of the show.
Based on rumors we’re expecting a top-end Snapdragon 865 chipset, 12GB of RAM, a quad-lens rear camera and a 6.6-inch screen, all of which sounds promising.
We’ll know the truth soon, and TechRadar will be on the ground at MWC reporting all the news as it happens, so make sure to check back here on February 24 and throughout the rest of the several-day-long event.
