Sony recently launched its flagship smartphone — Sony Xperia 5 and now as per the new report, it could be the last 4G-powered flagship device from the Japanese company.

However, the report adds that the future premium smartphones from Sony will come with 5G support in the Japanese market but nothing is confirmed about other markets. It also adds that the company will keep making 4G smartphones in the budget and mid-range segment.
