According to the report by The Sydney Morning Herald, the Xperia Z5 Premium packs a 5.5-inch display, a Snapdragon 810 chipset from Qualcomm, 3GB of RAM, and a 32GB built-in storage that can be expanded via the microSD card.

For consumers worrying about the oveheating rumors and issues surrounding the S810, the Japanese manufacturer may have found a way to alleviate the problem.

In an alleged teardown of the Sony Xperia Z5 Premium, the handset has been revealed to get a dual-heat pipe to take care of all the heat that Qualcomm's chip produces. In addition, Sony appeared to use a lot of heat-resistant paste for the device.

Meanwhile, other notable specs of the new Android flagship include a slightly higher resolution 23MP camera that can shoot UHD videos as well. A 5.1MP shooter is located in front for the usual selfies and video calls.

The Xperia Z5 Premium runs on Android 5.1 Lollipop out of the box, but only has a 3,430mAh battery, which may not be enough to last an entire day with all the juice needed to power the 4K display.

Rounding up the specs list are some flagship-level features that include water and dust resistance, a fingerprint scanner, and fast-charging.
