The Xperia 5 II is expected to succeed the Xperia 5 that launched last year as the company&#8217;s compact flagship for the year, and new renders by LetsGoDigital paint an impeccable picture of it.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>It should be noted that these aren&#8217;t official renders. They&#8217;re essentially concept renders, and the phone is unlikely to take this exact form. The render showcases the phone with a nigh-bezel-less display, the only intrusion on the screen coming in the form of a centered hole punch, a la Samsung Galaxy S20 series. That&#8217;s unlikely to be the case in reality, as the Xperia 1 II has no cut-outs at all, eschewing them for a traditional slim top bezel.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The render depicts the phone with a triple camera setup, positioned vertically at the middle of the phone. That design is a lot more feasible than the hole punch in the display. The&nbsp;Xperia 1&nbsp;had a centered camera layout, while the&nbsp;Xperia 5&nbsp;had its lenses at the top left. Roles could be reversed this time out. At the bottom of the phone is a 3.5mm headphone jack. Sony has brought back that feature with the Xperia 1 II, and we expect it to also make an appearance on the Xperia 5 II.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The Xperia 5 II is expected to sport a 21:9 display in the region of 5.6&#8243; to 5.8&#8243;, which would make it the smallest premium Android device on the market. That&#8217;s something for fans of compact phones to look forward to.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>While Sony is yet to release the Xperia 1 II, word on the grapevine claims the Japanese company is already working on yet another premium phone.
