A new Sony Xperia smartphone has appeared on Geekbench with a Qualcomm Snapdragon 865 SoC and 8 GB of RAM. Codenamed 7Y6DU1I, the device could well be the Xperia 5 II.

Sony has released one Snapdragon 865-powered flagship this year, the Xperia 1 II, but past rumours have suggested that three more are in development. Thought to be called the Xperia 0, Xperia 3 and Xperia 5 II, multiple sources have stated that the latter would follow the Xperia 1 II. By contrast, the Xperia 0 and Xperia 3 are supposed to arrive in September and at some point later this year, respectively.

The listing, called Sony 7Y6DU1I, describes the device as having a kona motherboard. While some outlets have claimed this to be a reference to the device being paired with the unannounced Snapdragon 865+, kona is the codename for the regular Snapdragon 865. The listing also reports the Sony 7Y6DU1I as having 8 GB of RAM. Geekbench does not offer any hardware details though, other than that the device is running Android 10.

Snapdragon 865 and 8 GB of RAM matches the specifications revealed in a leak about the Xperia 5 II published by @NodSikharulidze last month. Apparently based on the design of the Xperia 1 II, @NodSikharulidze claims that the Xperia 5 II will have a 6.1-inch display, a 3,800 mAh battery and four rear-facing cameras including a ToF sensor. No release date was offered, though.
