An alleged live image of the upcoming Sony Xperia 10 III has turned up online, showing off the smartphone in black and white livery. On top of that, an additional supposed specs leak has revealed that the Xperia 10 III will be powered by a Snapdragon 6-series chip and offer an attractive battery capacity bump over the Xperia 10 II.

A very blurry but still recognizable Sony Xperia 10 III has appeared in a purported live image of the smartphone ahead of its likely April 14 launch date. The real-life photo (see below), posted by Japanese site AndroidNext, shows the front and back of the Xperia 10 III in black next to a look at the rear side clad in white. Apparently, the mid-ranger will also come in pink and blue but these colors may be restricted to particular markets.

There doesn’t seem to be anything new to pinpoint in the supposed Sony Xperia 10 III live image, as it looks just like the renders that were shared by Voice/@OnLeaks back in January. Fans of the Xperia series will likely be pleased with the familiar design as it seems the Xperia 10 III looks very similar to its predecessor. The main differences between the two Sony smartphones will more likely be in regard to what has been packed into the interior.

According to a specsheet leaked for the Xperia 10 III (full list below), the new device will have a Snapdragon 690, as has long been expected, and it will apparently boast of having a useful 4,500-mAh battery. This is a decent bump over the Xperia 10 II, which sported a 3,600-mAh example. As for other key specs for the 6-inch OLED smartphone, it seems the Xperia 10 III will offer at least a 6 GB + 128 GB configuration, 8 MP selfie camera, and as has also been mentioned before, a main camera setup consisting of 8 MP + 12 MP + 8 MP sensors.
