Sony-leaks

As we've seen time and time again, upcoming devices' designs and specs are leaked much earlier than their intended reveal. While many companies like Samsung are good at keeping things a secret, others are not as fortunate. Sony is among the many that has not been so lucky as their newest flagship, the Sony Xperia Z1, surfaced across the web before its IFA 2013 event in Berlin. So today someone snapped a photo at a Sony Mobile office in Asia that exposed some of their rules. With these rules now being posted for employees to see, Sony hopes to at least slow down the amount of leaks for their devices.

Among the list of rules are:

Do not use phones without protective cover
Do not show phones to individuals outside of Sony Mobile (Unless NDA is signed)
Do not upload any pictures to social networks, public webpages etc.
Do not use 3rd party benchmarking applications
