At this point, it is no secret that Sony is working on a new flagship smartphone in its Xperia 1 line, which could be unveiled in the second quarter of the year. Reports so far have dubbed this model the Xperia 1 VI, and have stated that it will come with three state-of-the-art 48MP Exmor T sensors. Now, a new leak on the Chinese micro-blogging site Weibo has emerged claiming that might not be the case after all.
As per the Weibo post, the Xperia 1 VI will still be featuring a 48 MP, f/1.9, 24 mm, 1/1.35 main camera, paired with a 12 MP, f/2.2, 16 mm, 1/2.5 ultra-wide camera and a 12 MP, f/2.3, 85mm, f/2.8, 125mm, 1/3.5 telephoto camera. This appears to be the same camera hardware present on the Xperia 1 V, which made its debut with the Exmor T sensor last year.
If this turns out to be true, then it is likely that Sony is deciding to go on the software improvement route rather than hardware, likely with the help of AI. Although the camera specs might remain the same, the design is very likely to change. It was recently reported that Sony will be making the design of its upcoming Xperia flagship into a more mainstream one, ditching the 21:9 aspect ratio. This will result in the upcoming device being shorter and wider compared to its predecessors.
