With less than a week left until its official release, the first press photo of the Sony Xperia Z has just been leaked.

Formerly known as Sony Xperia Yuga, the next high-end Android smartphone is slated for a January 7 release, one day ahead of Consumer Electronics Show 2013 opening.

Courtesy of the folks over at evleaks via UnwiredView, we now know what the Xperia Z will look like. As for the specs, we're still waiting for official word that might confirm what leaked in the past few months.

Sony Xperia Z will boast a 13-megapixel rear photo snapper with autofocus, LED flash and full HD (1080p) video recording, as well as a secondary front-facing camera.

The phone will be powered by Android 4.1 Jelly Bean operating system and will pack a quad-core processor.
