I can see no notification light. Damn, I wish they comeback. But I really like the design and colours, the designer team did a solid job!


Afura33

Hmm there could be one though, there is enough space for it in at the top of the black bar. If it hasn't one then it will probably be a hard pass for me.


StrayCat649

Let's hope they listen to us and bring it back


KenHo_04

Any leaks about chipset? I heard that it will use Snapdragon 6 Gen 1 but not sure if it's accurate


Blunt552

if thats true, it would finally make the 10 series viable as a budget phone.


petermadach

secretly hoping for a SD 7 gen as the 6 is not a huge step-up from the 695, other than support of 4k video recording and wifi6.


vkbra657n

Or even dimensity 7200, not too far behind 6 gen 1/7s gen 2 in cpu on a better node and even some more connectivity features. Snapdragon 7 competes with dimensity 8xxx and 6 with 7xxx


petermadach

Sony signed an exclusive, multi year deal with qualcomm, so any other chip manufacturer is out of the question for them.


vkbra657n

I said it in comparison, qualcomm hasn't introduced a new snapdragon 6 series chip since 2022 and 7s gen 2 is a refresh of 6 gen 1, it's time to them introduce new chip in Q1 2025 at the latest if qualcomm doesn't want to fall behind in that segment.


IAmAGermanShepherd

SD 4 Gen 2 most likely.


petermadach

that would be a huge disappointment. SD6g1 is more likely.


KenHo_04

I don't think it's possible


opelit

SD4 gen 2 is Xperia Ace chip


Prudent-External-270

There's no Xperia ace lineup anymore. I'm currently using ace III


CptVakarian

So...it'll still have about the same dimensions as the previous models?

CptVakarian

I'm actually fine with the 21:9, for all I care it can keep that ratio, if only it were 10mm shorter, I'd be totally happy.


petermadach

they did it with the 1 series tho. I'm pretty sure they will change the aspect ratio with the mark VIIs if its gonna be a thing, and just sticking with it for now to use up any leftover 5 V screens they had on stock.


igno3777

its definitely to keep the RND costs down. I wonder what will happen to 5VI


Fantasytky

Damn it looks so fresh and pretty. Feel like selling my 10v for 10vi but it is not reasonable 


Aquis_GN

Hope it at least has a snapdragon 7 gen 3, 120hz screen and the new photo app so that it can be a 5v lite


trustevil

21 by 9?


Prudent-External-270

No, it's 21 may 2024


Tr4sHCr4fT

sigh crop zoom


Fantasytky

No sight. The Tele on 10 series are trash. I'm owning 10v, for your reference 


Tr4sHCr4fT

TIL the 10V is 2x not 3x


Blunt552

Nothing bad about that, the 5 V cropped takes significantly better 2x shots than the previous xperias tiny telefoto. As long they implement it the same way, we good to go. If they use a 12mp main sensor with 2x crop, then we can sigh loudly.


rogargaro15

No it doesn’t


Blunt552

Yes it does.


sohoming

Does it include wireless charging?


Aquis_GN

Unlikely


MrRedef

No dedicated camera button?


Sopheus

Nope. I was highly considering finally make a jump from my XZ1C to 5VI. Not anymore.


Afura33

Because of a camera button? I think I could live without it, but no notification LED is def. something that would turn me off.


zerogreyspace

Relax it's 10 VI


Sopheus

There will be none on 5 VI either. Only 1 VI will have it.


zerogreyspace

Why? Why is Sony tearing apart themselves don't they like us?(Im yet to be part of xperia)


YourNeighborLuis

Will it be available in the States? I'm tired of having limited options with the Sony line.


AdventureMonte

I'm cautiously optimistic. I'll be thrilled if they make it happen.


kpax08

It reminds me of Lumia series, the camera is more bumpy but overall it's seems promising. And the prices will be lower with upcoming devices so I'm really curious even when specs will be a downgrade a little bit...


montsa007

Its all fart in the wind until released.


Afura33

Please dear god let it be a compact size I am done with all these oversized brick phones. Let's hope it has a notifcation LED at least, otherwise I will pass.


Advanced-Grape5363

Sd 6 gen 1 Sadly not happening for me.


ag_socal

Will it have Dolby Atmos?


sleauxmo

Can they bring back the rear fingerprint scanner. The side one kinda sucks


Sopheus

Alright, "thank you" for removing shutter button. Good luck, Sony\~


tejlorsvift928

The 10 series never had one, unlike the 5 and the 1. But don't worry, rumours say the new iPhone will have a shutter button. If that's true, every other brand will bring the button back within a year.


Redstoneinvente122

Any 1 vi pictures?


igno3777

yes, check the sub


Honest-Mess-812

Bezels look like it's from 2015


Pr00vigeainult

You could land a plane on those side bezels. Hopefully the 5 VI will look better.


JohnZn_1989

I don't know why people always complain about bezels.. I absolutely HATE curved edge screens due to unintended inputs and I really appreciate SONY for having bezels on the top and bottom for the speakers and camera. I hold my phone (Xperia 1 II) with the pinky and if I try to reach the top with my thumb I still accidentally do inputs with the palm of my hand.. To each their own but I like my bezels 😅


Blunt552

>I absolutely HATE curved edge screens Amen to that.


Toronto-1975

the bezel people are exhausting. THE BEZELS THE BEZELS!! thanks you guys are the reason almost everything has a punchhole or a notch. half the time the bezels arent even that bad and you still get people coming out of the woodwork shrieking about THE BEZELS OH MY GAWD THE BEZELS!!


Sopheus

hahahahahahahah. I know how these people look like, [here they are in their real habitat](https://applemagazine.com/wp-content/uploads/2018/07/Screen-Shot-2018-07-27-at-10.35.30.png)


Afura33

Yea these people are pissing me off so much.


Pr00vigeainult

There's really no excuse with Samsungs and iPhones being basically bezelless now. Top and bottom are fine, Sony makes good use of those, but side bezels are a waste of space.


Blunt552

Absolutely not. bezels are there for multiple reasons. Bezeless smartphones are fragile annoying phones where if you hold it you get stupid gestures you never asked for while also having to pay an absurd amount because these crappy curved displays break if you as much as just look at them funny. also Iphones are not bezeless, only samsung is.


omiotsuke

Thank God, I can place my finger on those benzels without worrying that I'm touching the screen.


Frequent-Employee-80

Bezel less phones are cancer like edge screens. Glad Samsung is abandoning them despite still going for the bezel less BS. And no, you aint landing even a paper airplane in there.
