Sony has been quite busy in their home country, where they’ve revealed the arrival of the Xperia Z4 and the newly announced Xperia A4 for carrier NTT DoCoMo. Much like the Xperia Z4, the Xperia A4 will also arrive in June but with some fun color options which include blue, pink, white, and black, which can be seen above.

As for the phone itself, it should give you a bit of deja vu as it’s basically a retooled Xperia Z3 Compact. More details on the Sony Xperia A4 after the jump.

Sony Xperia A4 highlights include

  • 4.6-inch Triluminos (quantum dots) 720p display
  • 2.5GHz quad-core Snapdragon 801 chipset
  • 2GB RAM
  • 16GB internal storage
  • 20.7MP camera
  • 2.2MP front camera
  • IP65/68 dust- and water resistant
  • 2600mAh battery

Sony is also touting a 3-day battery, making the Xperia A4 a robust and well-rounded device. If all the specs seem familiar, that’s because the Xperia A4 is basically the Xperia Z3 Compact with new colors. Despite near identical specs, the Xperia A4 will launch with an updated Android 5.0 on launch.

Like the Xperia Z4, no news about an international roll out.
