The image pmugghc was referring to below... Go easy on the bezels comments peeps!
Looks to be a midrange offering.
Moving forward, IMHO the Sony Android UI needs a full refresh.

Is that 2.5d glass on the front? And is that a metal back?

If mid range, perhaps this is the F51xx model.

If this is how the new design starts then It's good enough for me...
It's a mid ranger in a high chance... so any flagship with such design will be IMO better looking, not to say this is bad design.. it's good but not for a high-end flagship from Sony...
Arc, S designs are very nice indeed, but I'm thinking about the new trend in design, plus the needs of todays smartphones with as clean front as possible ( less buttons )
Other manufacturers are forced to return to front buttons ( HTC ) so they can have better placement for fingerprint scanner, and some decided to never get rid of it in the first place duo to that being a signature design for them ( Samsung ), and some moved to the back of the phone ( LG )...
Sony chose to integrate the Finger scanner in the side power button which is genuine.. some new makers borrowed this also from Sony... but some says it caused some issues compared to a bare front button.. so I guess alot of manufacturers are waiting for production ready behind-screen fingerprint scanner which was demonstrated by Qualcomm few months ago
Any way, I think it's a very conservative design change... maybe Sony decided to go this route or they kept the larger changes for the flagship and made this as a test for the new changes

there is a post @xperiablog
" 5" HD.
- SoC MT6735.
- Ram and storage are more than E4 (I can't talk about this at the moment).
- Camera front and back like M4 Aqua.
- Design similar to E4.
- Have 4G LTE, dual sim."
looks like a entry level model if the post is true(it's supposed to be e6)...

^ It's not meant for this one from the picture above, it is some other low end model.

Unrelated to sony but LG's press conference starts in 30 minutes at 14:00 CET, will be interesting to see what LG brings to the stage. Samsung's press conference is later today at 19:00 I believe.

Makes sense, it would be too early to have a new C model, whereas the C is much older.
Still no UAprof for the F51xx?
edit, if anyone is interested in watching samsung's press release, here is the link
