As expected, Sony on Thursday took the wraps of the new Xperia Z3 and Xperia Z3 Compact smartphones for the Indian market at a press event.
Originally unveiled at IFA trade fair in Berlin earlier this month, the new Z3 smartphones pack some impressive specifications and will be competing with the likes of new Moto X, LG G3, Samsung Galaxy S5 and HTC One M8 in the country.

Among other specifications, the phones come with Android 4.4, 16GB of internal storage, microSD card slot, NFC, 4G LTE support and water/ dust resistance.
As you can see most of the specifications are same in the two phones but Xperia Z3 sports a 5.2-inch full HD display and 3GB of RAM, while the Xperia Z3 Compact packs a 4.6-inch 720p HD display and 2GB of RAM.
