Reports claim no major announcements from Sony at MWC

While we will still be seeing Sony at this year’s Mobile World Congress, reports claim Sony won’t be showing off its next flagship at the upcoming event. Sony is reportedly changing the way it will deliver flagship devices to cut costs. With the Xperia Z3 just a few months old, it would make sense for them financially to release less devices each year. It is said that Sony will not be holding a formal press conference this year but will have a “welcome greeting” for the media on the first day of the event on March 2. Maybe Sony might introduce something but if they aren’t holding a press con or livestream event for it, then don’t expect it to be their next great flagship.
