At the moment there’s no way of telling if this is a real render, but some things don’t make sense – like the transparent strip (found in the Xperia S) which would be covered by the display when the device is closed, and the presence of capacitive buttons (since Ice Cream Sandwich doesn’t need them anymore). However, the capacitive buttons can be overlooked since some manufacturers have chosen to include them in newer devices – after all the phone might launch with Gingerbread first.
But other than that, the phone does look pretty sweet. I guess we’ll just have to wait and see if this is the real deal. What do you think?
