Sony Xperia SL is official!

Looks like a Sony employee accidentally published an official page for the upcoming Xperia SL, a week before Sony's pre-IFA show on the 29th August. The page leaked colour options, battery life statistics and of course, the specs. The Xperia SL is a refresh of the Xperia S, hopefully these changes make an impact.

So, the phone packs a 4.3-inch display with 720p HD resolution (720x1280), powered by a dual-core Snapdragon S3 processor clocked at 1.7GHz (up from 1.5GHz) with 1GB of RAM. Camera's include a 12.1-megapixel rear-facing camera and front-facing camera of unknown resolution for video calling. Internal storage will most likely be at 16GB/32GB with no option to expand it. The phone runs Android 4.0 "Ice Cream Sandwich" as oppossed to the original Xperia S which ran Android 2.3 "Gingerbread".

Sony Xperia tablet leaks... [UPDATED]

Remember the Sony Tablet S with it's unique wedge design? Well, a successor may be on it's way soon. Today's leak includes a picture of the successor and some of it's specs. The tablet looks the same except it's thinner, now only 8.8mm thick making it 42 percent thinner than the Tablet S.

Camera's will be upgraded, the Xperia tablet will apparently sport a 8-megapixel rear-facing camera and a 1-megapixel front-facing camera. Battery capacity is said to be 6,000mAh which could double internet browsing duration over the Tablet S to around 10 hours.

We'll just have to wait and see what Sony eventually brings to the market, prices start at $399.99 for the 16GB version going up to $599.99 for the 64GB version respectively. The tablet is expected to be revealed at Sony's pre-IFA show on August 29th and come to market in September.
