The Sony Xperia 1 VIII is coming on May 13 | Infinium-tech
Sony has just officially confirmed the date of unveiling of its Xperia 1 VIII – May 13, 11:00 am, Japan time. Sony didn’t really add much in the way of information, only saying that “when the talent comes full circle, the next one is coming.”
It is clear that Sony will announce its long-awaited next flagship, the Xperia 1 VIII, but Sony will also announce its high-res flagship full-frame camera, the A7r VI, as well as a new lens – the 100-400mm f/4.5 GM.
We know that the Xperia 1 VIII will come in a new design, highlighted by a new square camera island, and a body that will be slightly wider and thicker than its predecessor.
Rumor has it there will be a new telephoto sensor, ranging between 1/3.0-inch and 1/2.0-inch, a 16mm ultrawide, a 24mm wide-angle camera, and a “2-day battery.”
According to the leaked preliminary listing, the Xperia 1 VIII may start shipping on June 26, and will be priced at €1,868.99 in Germany and £1,728 in the UK.
