Sony has confirmed this development at 2017 Investor Day citing not-so-satisfactory sales, reports Xperia Blog. The ‘ Standard’ smartphones were expected to offer specifications at a reasonable price tag, and whilst they garnered much interest in Japan, other countries saw lacklustre sales. In Japan, Sony managed to achieve 85 percent of its sales targets, while internationally, it only managed 31 percent. With these disappointing numbers, it is only logical to not announce successors to the Xperia X and Xperia X Compact.

Last year, Sony Xperia XA1 Ultra respectively.

Coming to its 2017 roap, Sony reportedly wants to focus on ‘technologies that only Sony can deliver’ and put more focus on its main markets like Japan, East Asia, APAC, Middle East and Europe. The report says that Sony remains vary of India due to dominance of budgeted smartphones in the market.
