Also, the chipset would allow the support of 4GB RAM, on-board 128GB memory and 4K-resolution display support. Yes, all these things together may appear in Xperia Z3 and it would be verdict in all-leading phones of the 2014. 

If you are expecting the phone to appear in the market in next two months then you might be wrong, as Xperia Z2 is not too old in the market. It is just recently released but few of the web sources are claiming the early release i.e. later July or early August. But as per the possibility Z3 may make its entry in the month of September or October. 

Xperia Z series is already popular because of its massive camera sensor and yes Xperia Z3 would maintain the features and specification of this lineup. In the market few of the smartphones have really good camera sensors for example, OnePlus One smartphone has really good sensor and Analyst are comparing its quality with the DSLR cameras. So, you can expect what would be happening in next 6 months. You won’t need to carry heavy cameras on your trip; your phone would do all things. Already, Xperia Z2 has pretty good camera quality and Z3 would take it to another level.

Competition pressure is not only for the Sony, other leading brands like Samsung and HTC are also the part of it. Recent releases like HTC One M8 and Samsung Galax S5 are pretty good phones in the market but not revolutionary. Now market needs something revolutionary and every brand is trying to do something similar. Early release rumor is not just related to Sony Xperia Z3. But there are other upcoming beasts, which might be released earlier, then their possible date of release.

Few weeks ago, there were rumors regarding the Galaxy Note 4 that it might make its entry in early August while other members of Note series has appeared after the month of August every year. And similar is leaked for Google Nexus 6. You can’t expect those rumors to be true but still the possibility and reasons mentioned are little worth believing.

Though he didn’t give the exact month for the release, we can estimate the release month. By narrowing the time span He stated, we can calculate September to be the release month.

Another reason is that Samsung is yet to release Samsung Galaxy S5. This other brand is expected in the market a while before the Galaxy Note 4 phablet. This is the reason that the giant tech company is concentrating on issuing info concerning the S5 smartphone. Samsung has always stuck to leaking info concerning the product that is next to be released and safeguarding info on a product not about to be released. It is expected that much news on this Note 4 phablet will be available in July as it nears release.

The industry is a buzz with rumors on upcoming Smartphones. One of them is LG G3, the other one is Google Nexus 6. The rumor mill seems to produce new rumors on these devices everyday, more so because LG is said to be the manufacturer of Nexus 6. Samsung Galaxy S5, HTC One M8 and iPhone 6 will also release in this year. The whole attention is currently on Nexus 6 and G3.

Rumors on LG G3 hinted that Nexus 6 could have design and features similar to G3. As those rumors somewhat undermined Nexus 6, industry observers dug deep and came to the decision that Nexus 6 will have some independent features which are quite interesting.  One should keep in mind that chief competitors of Nexus 6 will be Apple iPhone 6, Samsung Galaxy S5 and HTC One M8. Google therefore, needs to equip its next Nexus device impeccably so it could take those competitors.

Some of the features that industry sources expect in Nexus 6 are stunning display, Smartwatch extension and Android 4.5. The display of Nexus 6 will be highly similar to LG G3. Some sourced reported Nexus 6 will have a 6.3 inch screen with Quad HD display. Nexus 6 could have 2560 x 1440 resolution display, same as G3.

Moreover, as Google's Chromecast TV dongle enables users to view live streaming of web content in television, some are even speculating that Nexus 6 will allow users to view internet based content on their handset. It's not a far-fetch speculation because Chromecast TV is Google's own product and this is a golden opportunity for Google to market it. Besides, the 2K resolution of Nexus 6'S screen is perfect to watch live streaming.
