Until today, the only images wed seen of the Sony Xperia XZ3 included a dual-lens camera, but its now looking like they might be wrong, as new renders of the phone show it with just a single lens.The new renders were supplied to Compare Raja by reliable leaker @OnLeaks and are apparently based on factory CADs (computer-aided designs), so theres a fair chance theyre accurate, though as ever wed take them with a pinch of salt.They show a design thats quite similar to the Sony Xperia XZ2, complete with a likely glass back, a fingerprint scanner in the center and a camera above.
The front meanwhile has a screen with a likely 18:9 aspect ratio and bezels above and below theres no notch here.It also appears to have a metal frame and curved glass on both the front and back, but theres no sign of a 3.5mm headphone jack.Image 1 of 4There's only one rear camera in these images.

Right now nothing is certain, but we should know the truth soon, as theres a good chance the Sony Xperia XZ3 will be announced at IFA 2018 at the end of August.Via GSMArena 1, 2
