Editorial report
Sony Xperia 1 VI 12 GB / 512 GB / Global technical sheet
The Sony Xperia 1 VI suits people looking for a high-end Android phone for photography, video, and media. Its 3.5x optical zoom is a standout feature, but the main camera’s 48 MP resolution and f/1.9 aperture are both worse than most phones of its time.
The main camera has a 1/1.4″ sensor, larger than those in most phones of its time, and optical stabilization. Its 6.5-inch LTPO OLED display supports 120 Hz and 396 ppi; the display stands better than most. Performance also stands better than most: this version pairs the Snapdragon 8 Gen 3 with 12 GB of RAM, and its AnTuTu score is among the highest for phones of its time.
The 5,000 mAh battery supports 30 W wired charging and 15 W wireless charging, which is better than most phones of its time. Connectivity is among the best, with Wi-Fi 7, Bluetooth 5.4, NFC, and a 3.5 mm audio jack. This configuration has 12 GB / 256 GB; the phone is also sold with 12 GB / 512 GB. With a NeoScore of 8.2, the Xperia 1 VI is a particularly well-rounded choice for people who prioritize optical zoom, the display, and connectivity.
