A new leak seems to confirm that the Xperia 1 VI will ditch some of the features that make Xperia phones unique.
This year could see the Sony Xperia 1 VI mold its identity according to what has worked for other top smartphones. The phone’s specs have been leaked by MSPoweruser and while they might not be a significant upgrade over last year, Sony has packed in meaningful changes that could enhance the user experience.
As earlier rumors indicated, Sony is doing away with the tall 21:9 ratio aspect ratio for a 19.5:9 screen. It’s tipped to be 1.5 times brighter than the Xperia 1 V’s screen, playing into the trend of ultra-bright smartphone displays.
The phone will apparently be powered by the Snapdragon 8 Gen 3, which was already expected, given that its predecessor has the Snapdragon 8 Gen 2 under the hood. The device will be armed with an improved cooling system with enhanced heat diffusion and a vapor chamber to keep the phone from overhearing.
