Sony is expected to unveil a new Xperia smartphone at the event. A smartphone with model numbers F8331 and F8332 surfaced recently with USB Type-C port and almost similar specifications as the Xperia X Performance, but this is said to feature a different design. The phone is rumored to be called Xperia XR or XZ but we will have to wait for two more weeks to find out.
