More details have surfaced on the web with regards to Sony's Xperia Z and Xperia ZL smartphones, expected to be unveiled at the Consumer Electronics Show (CES) 2013 event starting next week.

According to reports, the main difference between the two devices is that the Xperia ZL will be the dual-SIM variant of the Xperia Z. The Xperia ZL is also rumoured to be less expensive than its counterpart. Moreover, the Xperia Z will be dust and water resistant.

An alleged photo of the Xperia Z, previously rumoured as the Xperia Yuga, shows a 19,990 THB (Thailand) price tag, which is around $660.

Earlier this week, the Sony mobile website inadvertently leaked images of the Xperia ZL and Z. While the specs appear to be similar for the both devices, there are certain visual elements that keep the two apart – the ZL is slimmer and the front facing camera on the Xperia ZL is below the display, and not above it as on the Xperia Z.

The common specifications include a 1.5GHz quad-core Qualcomm Snapdragon S4 Pro processor, 2GB of RAM and a 13MP camera, 5-inch full HD display and Android 4.1.2 Jelly Bean out of the box. In the meanwhile, check out our previous coverage on the CES 2013 here.
