That's the good news. The bad news is that the global release is said to only be happening in July, unfortunately.

Sony's Xperia 1 VII is coming soon - that's pretty much a given considering the fact that its predecessor launched in May 2024, but it's also obvious from the fact that we've seen it in CAD renders and then live certification images already in April.

It's not surprising at all to see it being powered by the Snapdragon 8 Elite, as Sony always went with the latest top of the line Snapdragon. The SoC is paired with 12GB...

Sony is anticipated to enhance the camera experience on the Xperia 1 VII greatly. Sources indicated it will incorporate the Exmor T sensor across all three rear cameras, an upgrade from last year's model, which featured this sensor only on the primary camera feature.
