Sony is Pinoy Archiveslaunching a new Xperia smartphone on April 14.

The announcement, spotted by Droid Life, appears to have been made only through a banner on Sony Xperia's YouTube channel, which sounds like either Sony did this in error, or the company's not particularly interested in hyping up the upcoming device(s).

Sony has lately been putting the focus on the camera capabilities of its phone, and the Xperia 1 III will reportedly be no different, with a quad main camera, possibly with periscope zoom capabilities.

As for the design, we can probably expect a typical Sony longphone, with a 21:9 display, just like the one on last year's Xperia 1 II.
