Sony may be about to slow its release schedule

Sony has been releasing two phones a year since 2013, but may be about to slow things down a little. From next year, Sony may only have one flagship per year in store.

Sony's Art Director Rikke Gertsen Constein said that the design department is working on flagship phones for the second half of 2016, 2017 and 2018. What she didn’t mention in her interview with Sony Xperia Poland’s YouTube channel was smartphone was anything to do with smartphones due out in the first part of the year.

This doesn’t necessarily mean that there won’t be a phone out in the first half of next year. It could alternatively mean that the design for the early 2016 handset is already locked down.
