Editorial report
Sony Xperia 10 III 6 GB / 128 GB / Global technical sheet
The Sony Xperia 10 III suits anyone looking for a relatively light, slim phone with water and dust protection. It weighs 169 g, measures 8.3 mm thick, and has IP65 and IP68 protection. Its main trade-off is the battery: overall, it stands worse than those of most phones of its time, although its 4,500 mAh capacity and 21 W charging are typical figures.
The 6-inch OLED display has a density of 457 ppi, among the highest of phones of its time. In contrast, its 60 Hz refresh rate and 80.3% screen-to-body ratio are worse than those of most. Performance is typical; this configuration pairs 6 GB of RAM with 128 GB of expandable storage. The rear main camera's 12 MP resolution and 1/2.9″ sensor are both worse than those of most phones of its time, while its 2x optical zoom is among the highest. It also records 4K video at 30 fps.
Connectivity is better than on most phones of its time, with 5G, dual Nano-SIM, NFC, and a 3.5 mm audio jack, as well as dual-band Wi-Fi. Overall, the Xperia 10 III is typical among phones of its time and earns a NeoScore of 5.4. It is a considered option for people who prioritize a slim design, a high-density display, and broad connectivity; the battery and rear main camera specifications are its clearest limitations.
