No reason was given for the cancellation, which could be an indication of more serious problems, given that Sony doesn’t hold a strong brand presence in the U.S. smartphone market at the moment.

However, Sony’s upcoming Z5 smartphones are scheduled to launch later this month — including in the U.S. — so the delay in the Z4 could be insignificant.
