If you’re looking to get your hands on a smaller and possibly cheaper version of the Sony Xperia Z2, you might be interested to learn that Sony has officially announced the Xperia Z2a in Taiwan. When Sony unveiled the handset at that time, they did not mention any of the handset’s specs, but thanks to the folks at GSMArena, we now have a better idea of what we can expect. Based on what they found, it turns out that the Xperia Z2a is essentially a smaller version of the Xperia Z2. It will feature a 5-inch 1080p HD display. It will be powered by a Qualcomm Snapdragon 801 chipset and will also pack the same 20.7MP rear-facing camera as the Sony Xperia Z2. Storage will also be expandable and will also support both 3G and LTE connectivity.

Today we get the detailed rundown of the specs of the recently announced Sony Xperia Z2a. For all we know, a name such as Xperia Z2 compact would suit it just fine. A week ago we saw the Sony Xperia Z2a go official in Taiwan, but at the time we didn’t have many of the specs of the smartphone. Now that we have them, it turns out this one is absolutely identical to the Sony Xperia ZL2, which was announced back in May for the Japanese market but with half the storage (only 16GB). The Xperia Z2a is a more compact version of the Xperia Z2 flagship, with a .2″ smaller display, all-plastic rear design, 200mAh smaller battery capacity. The rest of the specs – camera, chipset, etc – are pretty much identical with the Sony Xperia Z2. So, the Xperia Z2a comes with a 5″ IPS 1080p display, it utilizes a Snapdragon 801 chipset with 3GB RAM and packs the same 20.7MP camera as the Xperia Z2. Its storage is still expandable, the connectivity options are the same as on the Z2 with only the 3G/LTE bands being more different.
