The successor for Sony's high-end Xperia Z smartphone, due for a worldwide launch later this month, has purportedly been outed.

Details acquired by Xperia Blog has shed light on a handset codenamed Sony C670X, with the ID of the Xperia Z being C660X. The anonymous tipster claimed that the C670X will be the next flagship device for Sony and the successor to the Xperia Z.

It reportedly features a full HD 4.8-inch display and is powered by a Qualcomm Snapdragon 600 (APQ8064T) chipset with a 1.8 GHz quad-core processor, as well as 2 GB of RAM and an Adreno 320 GPU. Other features include 32 GB of internal storage and a 13-megapixel Exmor RS camera. Its OS is rumored to be Android 4.2 Jelly Bean.

The Sony C670X smartphone is apparently scheduled for a launch during the middle of 2013. For more on the Xperia Z itself, visit our CES 2013 hands-on impressions.

    Looks like a decent phone. Maybe Sony will wait a few more months before releasing it.

    So their next flagshit is going to have 300 MHz more, to compete with HTC's One 1.7 GHz? For real?

    Some companies release their next generation after about a year. Sony apparently does it every few months.
