A new report has indicated that the Sony Xperia 1 V will not come in a more compact setup than its predecessor. The Xperia 1 V had previously been rumored to be smaller than the Xperia 1 IV but the new reports contradict this. The leaked details of the yet-to-be-released Sony flagship included a schematic of the smartphone.

The Sony Xperia 1 V is expected to be released later this year and Weibo leaker, Zackbuks has hinted that it will not be smaller. The tipster has had a run of bold hits in recent times and he provided a schematic diagram of the flagship. The leaked dimensions of the smartphone are 164.68 x 70.89 x 8.54 which is different from an earlier leak back in February by @onleaks. The original Xperia 1 model measures 167 x 72 x 8.2 mm, with subsequent models slightly smaller. The weights have also varied across the generations of the Xperia 1 with a deviation of around 5g.

The February leak was premised on the information that Sony had overhauled the design of the smartphone with a narrower and thicker chassis. The Xperia 1 V will be slightly thicker than its predecessor but retains a similar height and width.

Sony will likely release the Xperia 1 V in May 2023 and a sequential distribution to other markets could be deployed. There are no official details yet from Sony but we expect the full specs of the Xperia 1 V flagship to surface soon.
