The alleged upcoming smartphone from Sony, Sony Xperia Z6, is now being rumored of having its own version of pressure-sensitive display. This flagship smartphone will be the successor of the Sony Xperia Z5.
Ubergizmo reports that Sony will be integrating its own version of a pressure-sensitive display for its new Xperia Z6. Thus, this appears to indicate that Sony could attempt to make their own display that will be a different move from relying on third-party suppliers like Synaptics who just previously announced pressure-sensitive display components.
According to Android Headlines, the Huawei Mate S and some Apple products also employed these kinds of display. This feature is being utilized to show different kinds of information or to offer quick access to some functions that will rely on the amount of pressure that is applied to the display.
Probably, this feature will be included in several phones next year including the Xperia Z6, since Synaptics has released the essential technology for these kinds of display. In order to keep up with the competition, Sony could opt to increase the resolution of their flagship phone as well as the amount of RAM.
Since this rumored feature for the Xperia Z6 is on trend and demand, then this could be a great recovery move for Sony, for they have been facing substantial losses in the smartphone market this year. In terms of display resolution, the Xperia Z6 will likely sport a 2K (QHD) screen. Moreover, the latest Qualcomm Snapdragon 820 SoC is projected to supply power for this handset, reports Mobi Picker.
The upcoming flagship smartphone Sony Xperia Z6 is now being speculated to be released in 2016 with a feature of pressure sensitive screen. On the other hand, the Xperia Z6 Compact could be revealed too, but without the pressure sensitive screen in order to decrease its price.
