It seems like someone at Sony must not want their job. Following a social media slip-up that revealed a Verizon-branded Sony Xperia Z2, the Verizon version of the device has once again been spotted in official channels. It was caught in an image on Sony Japan’s site, which is even more odd considering Verizon has no known affairs in those parts of the world.
As you can imagine, the image was quickly replaced with something a little less revealing. The photo didn’t show the Verizon logo as clearly as the original leak did, though it’s hard to miss that iconic check mark and 4G LTE even in such skewed form. Verizon does make it a point to brand every product they launch, after all, so seeing the logo on a phone is like spotting a relative coming off of a flight.
We already know everything there is to know about the Sony Xperia Z2, because it’s already been launched in many parts of the world. It features a Qualcomm Snapdragon 801 processor clocked at 2.3GHz, a 5.2-inch full HD display, 3GB of RAM, 16GB of internal storage, Sony’s 20.7 megapixel Exmor camera sensor that can shoot 4K video and more.
What we don’t know is when Verizon is planning to launch this thing, though all of the recent leaks suggest it won’t be long before that ends up happening. Any Verizon owners looking forward to it alongside heavy hitters like the HTC One M8 and Samsung Galaxy S5?

It’s a great phone and losing to competition because of terrible availability…
Anyhow, I think “leak” is not very fitting in this situation… It didn’t reveal any new info, everyone know it’s coming to Verizon.
Sony really needs to work on their availability. It’s only available on one network in Australia at the moment. Luckily I am on that network.
Hopefully soon
I’m so torn all of a sudden… As a VZW customer I’ve been waiting for the LG G3 to do my upgrade as it seemed a no brainer versus M8’s so-so camera and the overhyped S5. Sony or LG? Sony or LG? Sony or LG? Decisions, decisions…
Sony. All the way. I don’t mean to sound biased, but I bought one, and this phone is just all round an absolute beast.
Yeah, but which flagship phone isn’t?
What do you enjoy most about the phone? Im due an upgrade, and only hope that VZW release the Xperia. Thanks
What do I like most about it? What don’t I like about it:
-The display, absolute rich and vivid, viewing angles also fixed
-Speed and fluidity, this thing flies all day long
-Battery life, absolutely full of endurance, 8.5 hours screen on time first day.
-Camera is great, I’m not a huge camera person but it’s definitely gonna give you great pictures on the go.
Sony is lovely but is not universal eg: throw is terrible unless you have a Sony tv. I now have the s5 but feel short changed as the quality of the z2 is brilliant s5 does feel a little flimsy compared but still it handles programmes better than the z2. LG is good but doesn’t compare to the z2 or s5… hope this helps with your descision I understand taking a new phone is now a big deal.. don’t feel short changed..
In a heartbeat!
Liter of Cola? do we make Liter of Cola?? Just get a large Farva
Farva? Fanta
I don’t want a large Farva ! I want a god damn liter of cola!
I think you mean Sony Korea. And it looks like they’ve put up a photoshopped-out version.
Are you really that ignorant? The writing is Korean Hangul and website even says “.kr” at the end..
Phandroid seems to only get worse..
Yeah it’s korean some people don’t understand the difference with japanese and korean
Do we think the compacy version will finally become available in the US?
