According to the latest news, Sony is developing a new smartphone called the Xperia 1 VI. Sources reveal that the aspect ratio of the screen is changing from 21:9 to approximately 19.5:9, with the resolution dropping from 4K to 2K+, making the overall display wider. Although the blogger did not disclose specific design details, he mentioned that this information is “unreliable” and any resemblance to the previous generation phones is purely coincidental.
Furthermore, the blogger mentioned in the article that “the Xperia 5 Series is about to be released, which may be the last smartphone release of the year.” This suggests that Sony may not be releasing Xperia 5 series phones this year.
As for the specifications of the Xperia 1 V, it features a 6.5-inch 21:9 4K (3860×1644) non-hole-punch display, with a Qualcomm Snapdragon 8 Gen 2 processor, a 5000mAh battery, and support for 33W PD3.0 fast charging, Qi wireless charging, etc. The camera setup includes an IMX888 main sensor (24mm, 1/1.35, 52MP total resolution, 48MP effective pixels), with support for real-time HDR technology and dynamic HDR.
It’s also worth noting that during the same period, another phone named Xperia 5 V will also be released. This phone is powered by the Snapdragon 8 Gen 2 mobile platform, featuring a 6.1-inch 21:9 OLED display with a resolution of 2520×1080, and equipped with dual cameras: a 12-megapixel 16mm lens and a 48-megapixel 24mm lens.
In summary, it’s evident that Sony continues to innovate and develop in the smartphone arena, and we look forward to more surprises from their future products.
