Exciting new information has emerged about the upcoming Sony Xperia 1 VII, hinting at significant upgrades to both its camera system and display. The official launch is scheduled for Tuesday, May 13.
According to a detailed leak reported by Android Headlines, we now have a closer look at the Xperia 1 VII’s design, available color options, and standout features. Staying true to Sony’s signature aesthetic, the device features a flat display and squared-off corners, maintaining the minimalist Xperia style.
Reportedly, the phone will launch in three color variants: black, green, and purple. The leak also confirms a triple-lens rear camera setup, similar to the configuration seen on last year’s Xperia 1 VI.
The new model appears to emphasize photography even further, with promotional material referencing “powered by Alpha”—Sony’s imaging technology found in its digital cameras. Expect new features like focus lock and enhanced macro capabilities, reinforcing the phone’s appeal to mobile photography enthusiasts.
Additional details suggest a 5,000 mAh battery—matching its predecessor—with claims of up to two days of usage. The display is also rumored to include a new Zeiss anti-glare coating and will integrate Bravia tech, the same used in Sony’s high-end televisions, for improved visual performance. Full-stage stereo speakers are another highlight, promising immersive audio.
Stay tuned for full coverage once Sony officially unveils the Xperia 1 VII this Tuesday—it’s shaping up to be a strong contender for the best Sony smartphone yet.
