Leaked screenshots show what Sony's Android 4.2 might look like

Sony Xperia ZU a.k.a. "Togari" is the rumored 6.44" phablet coming on June 25 with a Snapdragon 800 chipset and Android 4.2.2. The new version of Android will reportedly bring a slightly tweaked Sony UI.
Here are some screenshots that are allegedly from the updated software. We tried to match them with screenshots from our Xperia Z review and aside from minor cosmetic changes the UI is mostly the same.

Well, Sony's custom UI is still one of the closest to stock Android. We have to wonder what will happen to the new lockscreen - will it have Android 4.2's widgets or the fancy 3D effect of Sony? Unfortunately, the leaked screenshots don't give the answer to that question but the official announcement of the ZU might just do it.
