Meet the fatter flagship Sony Xperia 1 III: high-quality images and details from a reliable source

Sony is currently preparing a new line of smartphones for 2021. Information about future updates began to appear on the network.

This time, well-known insider Steve Hemmerstoffer under the nickname Onleaks has published the first high-quality images of the Sony Xperia 1 III and details about the smartphone.

According to the source, Sony Xperia 1 III has qualities that are rare now for flagships – the smartphone will retain a slot for memory cards (MicroSDXC) and a 3.5 mm audio jack.

The smartphone is almost identical in appearance to last year’s Sony Xperia 1 II. He received a glass back panel and a metal frame without fillets. The dimensions are slightly reduced, but the thickness has increased. Dimensions are 161.6 x 67.3 x 8.4mm (9.6mm with camera overhang).

The OLED flat screen is once again CinemaWide with a 21: 9 aspect ratio, 6.5-inch diagonal, 4K resolution, and HDR support. The frames have become very narrow, which is largely responsible for the reduction in the size of the smartphone. Decreased not only the side edges, but also the “forehead” with the “chin”.

The rear camera received three main modules, ZEISS optics and an additional 3D iToF sensor. One of the camera modules has become a periscope. There is also support for 5G, a fingerprint scanner in the power button, dual front speakers, and a button on the left edge for quickly performing different tasks, like in the Xperia Pro.

Steve Hemmerstoffer has a long track record of making reliable renderings of various smartphones prior to their announcement. Almost all such works by OnLeaks are then confirmed, so there is no reason to doubt the design of the Sony Xperia 10 III. Leaks include the Samsung Galaxy S21, Sony Xperia XZ4, Google Pixel 4 XL, and more.
