That is just a guess on my part. It looks too much like a Voyage without buttons. My PW3 doesn't look very good in sunlight compared to the Oasis 2. The plastic screen with the texture casts shadows making the background look grainy. The smooth glass screen of the Oasis makes the background look uniform and much brighter.
ETA: In chat with CS today I asked if the front of the screen is glass similiar to the Voyage and Oasis, and got told that, yes, it is the same. Take that also with a grain of salt until we do have a real teardown.
