After its release of the Xperia XZ series last year, Sony continues to move forward in their vision of the smartphone evolution with the Sony Xperia 1. The title is simple and eliminates all the Xs and Zs we grown tired of seeing. On the Xperia 1, Sony is bringing us a OLED 4K display but this time adds a 6.5″ 21:9 CinemaWide view coupled with HDR. Sony has also worked with Dolby Atmos to give you sound on a smartphone like no other.
Its triple lens camera features Eye AF which they believe will make your photos look the way they are intended to look. Each lens is 12MP but brings something different to the table such as a 26mm lens, 52mm telephoto w/ OIS and 16mm SuperWide.
Specs wise we are looking at a Qualcomm Snapdragon 855 chipset, 6GB RAM, microSD support, water resistant and 3,330mAh battery.
Xperia 1 comes in Black, Purple, Gray, and White (only Black and Purple
available in U.S.) with Android™ 9.0 Pie, and will be available in the U.S. from late Spring 2019.
On the mid-range side is the Xperia 10 and Xperia 10 Plus. They are both Full HD+ and also bring you a 21:9 Ultimate Wide display as they call it. The Xperia 10 is 6″ while the 10 Plus is 6.5″. Both are using dual shooters with the Xperia 10 wielding 13MP+5MP and the 10 Plus with 12MP+8MP. Xperia 10 houses a Snapdragon 630 chipset and 2870mAh battery while the larger 10 Plus has a 636 chipset and 3,000 mAh battery..
Xperia 10 (MSRP $349.99) and Xperia 10 Plus (MSRP $429.99) come in Black, Silver Navy, Pink (Xperia 10 only) and Gold (Xperia 10 Plus only) (only Black and Silver available in the U.S.).
Both Xperia 10 and 10 Plus launch on Android™ 9.0 Pie in the U.S. from March 18, 2019. The Xperia 10 and 10 Plus have been certified to work on Verizon’s 4G LTE network. As a part of the new partnership, you can get a $250 pre-paid Mastercard when you switch to Verizon and activate your new Xperia 10 or 10 Plus online at Verizon.com
