Sony marches to the beat of its own drum when it comes to smartphone design. The Xperia 1 V, with its unique 21:9 4K display, substantial bezels, and continuous zoom lens, is a testament to that. We expect the upcoming Xperia 1 VI to follow suit.
This maverick approach has pros and cons, but it undeniably makes Sony's flagships stand out.
What's on the Horizon for Xperia 1 VI?
The Xperia 1 VI is rumored to be on the cusp of release, and whispers suggest significant camera upgrades. We'll keep this article updated with the latest leaks. In the meantime, we'll also explore what we'd love to see in the new phone.
Possible Release Date and Price
Following historical trends, a May 2024 launch is likely, with actual availability potentially stretching into June. A rumor suggests an even earlier reveal at MWC 2024 (February), but this seems less credible.
Expect a hefty price tag – the Xperia 1 V starts at $1,399, so the VI is likely to follow suit.
Camera Rumors: More Megapixels, More Possibilities?
The biggest leak so far revolves around the camera. It suggests a triple-lens setup with a massive upgrade: 48MP main, 48MP ultrawide, and a 48MP telephoto offering 3x optical zoom and potentially reaching 6x with sensor cropping.
For comparison, the Xperia 1 V has a 48MP main sensor paired with more modest 12MP ultrawide and telephoto cameras, offering a maximum of 5.2x optical zoom. If the leak holds true, the VI promises significant improvements in megapixel count for both the ultrawide and telephoto lenses.
