IFA 2014 takes place next month and at the event a lot of manufacturers are going to show off their new devices, including but not limited to smartphones, tablets and smartwatches. Sony will be present at IFA 2014 in full force as well and it too is expected to unveil a couple of new devices. While there have been many rumors about its devices, the company itself may have intentionally leaked just a hint of the two new devices it will show off at the event next month.
The image attached above was initially posted on an official promo page that Sony has set up on Facebook. It is hard to miss the 7 or 8-inch tablet seen in the hands of a gentleman lounging by the pool. Sony pays a subtle tribute to the waterproof capabilities of its devices with this.
Over the past couple of weeks there have been rumors that Sony will unveil the Xperia Z3 Tablet Compact. Much of what we have heard about this tablet lines up nicely with this image. It won’t be a full fledged tablet like the Xperia Z2 Tablet but it will retain Sony’s signature waterproof and dustproof capabilities.
The gentleman also appears to be wearing a smartwatch that is unlike any other smartwatch that Sony has released up till now. September will mark an entire year since the company released SmartWatch 2, there has been speculation about a successor as well. Rumor as it that the Sony SmartWatch 3 is on the cards for IFA 2014 but not much is known about this smartwatch up till now.
Sony is keeping mum on its IFA plans for now and with good reason, its official event isn’t that far off, so we’ll only have to wait for a week or so before we find out what products it will be showing off.
