1. Sony Xperia 1 VI: Design & Display

According to an MSPowerUser report, the Japanese brand’s upcoming flagship phone features a sleek and slim body. The rear has a frosted textured glass panel that is paired with fine slits on the sides for a better grip. The report claims that it will be available in black and platinum silver color options.

On the front, it sports an OLED display that features a 1.5x brighter panel compared to the Xperia 1 V. The screen will reportedly offer a 19.5:9 aspect ratio and variable refresh rates up to 120Hz, which is in line with our previous report. We can expect the higher brightness to kick in under direct sunlight and other display tech like BRAVIA HDR to make a return for improved contrast and colors.

2. Specs & Performance

Sony could be placing a greater focus on gaming performance with the Xperia 1 VI. Under the hood, it could feature the Snapdragon 8 Gen 3, which is a flagship grade processor. But for mobile gamers, this device will apparently offer an FPS optimizer and a 240Hz touch sampling rate. All of this could help give a smoother gaming experience. A large 5,000mAh battery pack powers this device, which likely offers fast charging and wireless charging.

The high end hardware would even get a dedicated vapor chamber to help maintain performance for extended periods of use. The leak adds that Sony could even offer Xperia 1 VI owners one year of free Sony Pictures movie streaming, giving them access of up to five Sony movie titles remastered with IMAX video and DTS sound.

3. Camera & Audio

Back in April, we covered a report regarding the camera system on the Sony Xperia 1 VI and Xpiera 10 VI. This showcased the triple camera module that offers a wide angle sensor with a 24mm to 48mm lens (2x optical zoom), ultra wide angle lens, and a telephoto shooter (up to 7x optical zoom). The primary camera is the “Exmor T for mobile” stacked CMOS image sensor, which could have a 48-megapixel resolution.

Sony typically offers an enhanced audio and the Xperia 1 VI is no different. A new high performance audio chip may be featured on the upcoming flagship for dynamic and clear audio. We can expect Hi Res audio, Hi Res wireless, 360 Reality audio, LDAC, DSEE Ultimate, and even a 3.5mm headphone jack. Sony Pictures and Music engineers also tuned the sound profile for improved bass and clarity for audiophiles.
