Introduction and design
Update: In a strange turn of events, Sony and Verizon have announced that their plans to release the Xperia Z4v have been cancelled. We were looking forward to this one coming out stateside, but we, just like you, will have to wait a little longer for Sony’s next smartphone.
Sony’s latest flagship smartphone, the Z4v, is an offshoot of the Xperia Z4 and Xperia Z3+ that’s making its way to US shores by way of Verizon Wireless. The new release aims to provide the best traits of each of those phones, while also offering enough aesthetic and internal boosts to trump last year’s Xperia Z3v, which was also available through Verizon Wireless.
While the build I got my hands on was only a working prototype and didn’t feature final software, the presentation was complete enough for me to make some snap judgment calls before its tentative summer release.
The Z4v has what it takes to hang with the sharpest and most powerful smartphones available in the US. But if you were hoping for a direct translation of the Xperia Z4 or Z3+, you might be a little disappointed.
