Earlier today, we told you that Sony Georgia leaked the info according to which the company would unveil three smartphones at IFA 2015 in Berlin, including the Xperia Z5, Xperia Z5 Compact and Xperia Z5 Premium (previously believed to be the Xperia Z5+).

Well, it seems that hours later, a bunch of photos showcasing what is said to be the Sony Xperia Z5 Premium model appeared online (via Tech Zoom). We can’t guarantee that what you’re seeing is the real deal, but the phone in the images does seem to jibe with the company’s design language, especially due to the metal back twist.

We’re pretty interested to see the Xperia Z5 Premium arrive on the market, because this particular device will be the first to arrive with a 4K display carrying a 2160 x 3840 pixel resolution and an insane 800+ pixels per inch.

Earlier information also claimed that the three Sony phones bound for IFA 2015 would come equipped with a Sony 23MP camera that features super-fast 0.1-second autofocus, f/1.8 aperture and 1/2.2 inch sensor. We currently don’t have any info on whether the main shooter will feature optical image stabilization or not. It would be a first for Sony.

As for the Xperia Z5 flagship, the phone should make it out with a 5.2-inch display with 1080p resolution (1920 x 1080 pixels), while the Xperia Z5 Compact will boast a 4.6-inch screen with 720p (1280 x 720p) resolution.
