Japanese company VAIO (not Sony) has just revealed the retail package of its first smartphone. The contents of the retail package were empty because the product hasn't been announced yet.

The VAIO smartphone is expected to be officially unveiled next week, on March 12. Even though the device hasn't been shown yet, some of its specs have already been leaked.

Unfortunately, there's no telling if they're accurate or not until VAIO smartphone goes official, so take it with a grain of salt.

So, the VAIO smartphone is said to be equipped with a 5-inch HD (720p) capacitive touchscreen display and a 64-bit Qualcomm Snapdragon 410 processor.

Furthermore, the device may pack 2GB of RAM and 16GB of internal memory. There's no word on microSD card slot, but there should be a 13-megapixel camera on the back, along with a 5-megapixel camera in the front.

Word is the smartphone will ship with Android 5.0 Lollipop operating system out of the box. No word on pricing options and availability, but as you can see the specs are pretty range so it shouldn't be priced too high.

Hopefully, the Japanese company behind the VAIO project won't put customers pay for the brand instead for what the smartphone has to offer in terms of specs and functionality.
