Sony Xperia Z2 -The best smartphones 2014 :
Sony luvs a flagship smartphone and, if current rumors ring true, the Japanese firm is coming up its third in just over a year in the form of the Sony Xperia Z2. January 2013 saw the arrival of the Xperia Z at CES 2014 in Las Vegas, which was followed in September 2013 by the Xperia Z1 at IFA in Berlin - and in real time we are hearing that the Xperia Z2 will arrive at MWC 2014 at the end of February.
Compare Sony's product cycle to the likes of Samsung or Apple - where we see an annual reboot of real flagships like as the Galaxy S4 and iPhone 5S.

Sony Xperia Z2 display :
The Sony Xperia Z2 was at first said to be coming with a 5.2-inch display, featuring a 2560 x 1440 pixel resolution, which would make it one of the sharpest displays on the best smartphones market. That may be nothing more than a fantasy, all the same, with more recent hardware records from the D6503 reporting a regular 1920 x 1080 pixel display. The sized from more recent leaks sticks at 5.2-inches giving it a pixel density 424ppi, the same as the LG G2. Screenshots from the device report a resolution of 1776 x 1080, with 144 lines being given over to the touch panel across the bottom of the display.You can expect plenty of talk of Triluminos and X-Reality Bravia technology come launch day.
Sony Xperia Z2 processor, battery and connectivity:
The Sony Xperia Z2 has been rumoured to turns with a 2.3GHz quad-core Qualcomm Snapdragon 800 processor, which would be the same as the current Xperia Z1. There could possibly be a jump up to 3GB of RAM, matching the Samsung Galaxy Note 3, which should make for a speedy device. There have been questions raised about why the Snapdragon 805 chipset is not being used. While Qualcomm said to expect devices on the new hardware in the first half of 2014, it's believed that there has not been enough time for device manufacturers to integrate the hardware for the immediate launch cycle.While the processor may not see a step up, AndroidSaS reported the Sony Xperia Z1 will feature a 3700mAh battery. We're certain the battery will be a focus for Sirius and Sony's Stamina mode and granular power controls should keep things carrying out the day. As expected 4G LTE connectivity is also rumoured, but that's pretty much a given as it is a high-end device and its predecessor goes with it.
Sony Xperia Z2 operating system:
Initially it looked like the Xperia Z2 might launching with Android 4.3 Jelly Bean after a variety of screenshots made their way onto the XDA Developers forum, but fresher leaks suggest we could be in for a KitKat treat. As well as Android 4.4 KitKat at its heart, a new and fresh set of screenshots also reveal a huge range of new features apparently destined for the Sony Xperia Z2 including; double tap to wake the screen, 4K video recording, a variety of camera modes, smart controls, a choice of homescreen launchers and more.Sony Xperia Z2 camera:
Sony usually likes to make a bit of a song and dance about the cameras on its smartphones, and to be fair it's got a pretty strong track record. Strangely though, leaked specs for the Xperia Z2 are pointing to the same 20.7MP camera as you get in the Z1. This is by no means a bad thing, but with the same camera and processor the Xperia Z2 is beginning to look like a screen-bump update rather than a whole new device. A good sign for smartphone photographers though is word that Sony will replace the LED flash with a Xenon offering, which provides a good balance of light for more natural shots.Sony Xperia Z2 release date and price:
There were rumors suggesting the Sony Xperia Z2 would be outed at CES 2014, but instead we were given the Xperia Z1 Compact and a US variant of the Xperia Z1.
