Earlier this year, Sony unveiled the Xperia 10 III with Snapdragon 690 SoC and triple rear cameras. Today, the Japanese tech giant has silently launched its lite version dubbed Sony Xperia 10 III Lite. The device isn’t really a lite model in terms of raw hardware, rather it cuts on some storage and offers eSIM functionality.

The Sony Xperia 10 III Lite comes at a price tag of JPY 46,800(approx. 425 US Dollars). It has Black, White, Pink, and Blue color variants, however, the latter two colors are exclusive to the Rakuten carrier. The smartphone will be available for purchase starting from August 27 in the country.

The smartphone borrows most of the specs from the original Xperia 10 III. It sports a 6-inch OLED display with an FHD+ resolution. It has an aspect ratio of 21:9 and supports HDR. Upfront, it has an 8MP camera for selfies. Moving to the back, the smartphone has a triple camera system. It has a 12MP primary lens, an 8MP telephoto lens, and lastly an 8MP ultra-wide-angle sensor.

Under the hood, the device is powered by the Qualcomm Snapdragon 690 SoC. The major difference between the Lite model and the original Xperia 10 III is the storage. The Lite is limited to 64GB of onboard storage and has 6GB of RAM. It packs a 4,500mAh battery with support for 30W fast charging technology. The device is IP68 dust and water-resistant and has eSIM functionality.
