The Xperia 1 II will ship with support for 5G NR in Europe and Asia (making it Sony's first Xperia device to support this network), while the United States will ship with a 4G variant.[5] Although 5G networks are supported, it only supports "sub-6" 5G, meaning it is not compatible with millimeter-wave (mmWave) networks.

Design

The Xperia 1 II retains Sony's signature square design that is seen on previous Xperia phones.[4] The phone has Corning Gorilla Glass 6 protection on the front and back as well as IP65 and IP68 certifications for water resistance.[5][9] The build has a pair of symmetrical bezels on the top and the bottom, where the front-facing dual stereo speakers and the front camera are placed.[4] The left side of the phone contains a compartiment for a SIM card and a microSDXC card, while the right side contains a fingerprint reader embedded into the power button, a volume rocker and a shutter button.[4] The rear cameras are arranged in a vertical strip.[4] The phone will ship in three colours: Black, Purple and White (in Japan and Hong Kong only).[9]

Specifications

Hardware

The Xperia 1 II has a Qualcomm Snapdragon 865 SoC and an Adreno 650 GPU, accompanied by 8 GB of RAM, 256 GB storage space (which can be expanded up to 1 TB via the microSDXC card slot), and single nano SIM slots.[6] The display is identical to the one on the Xperia 1, a 6.5-inch 4K HDR OLED with a 21:9 aspect ratio, which Sony claims offers "unprecedented color accuracy".[6] It is also capable of displaying one billion colors; most smartphone displays have sixteen million colors. The phone has a 4000 mAh battery, and supports wireless charging.[4] The phone has front-facing dual stereo speakers and a 3.5 mm audio jack.[4][6] The latter feature was not present on Sony's previous flagship phone,[5] and technology journalists noted it as unusual in a flagship smartphones in 2020.[4][10][11]

The phone has a triple 12 MP camera setup and a 3D iToF sensor on the back, and an 8 MP camera on the front. The rear cameras comprise the main lens (24 mm f/1.7), the ultra wide angle lens (16 mm f/2.2), and the telephoto lens (70 mm f/2.4); each uses ZEISS' T✻ (T-Star) anti-reflective coating.[5][6] The phone has support for 4K video recording for up to 60 FPS and for 2K for up to 120 FPS.[5][9]

Software

The Xperia 1 II runs on Android 10. Sony has also paired the phone's camera tech with a "Pro" mode developed by Sony's camera division CineAlta, whose features take after Sony's Alpha camera lineup.[4][5]

Notes

  1. The model's Roman numeral suffix is read "Mark II" (mark two).[4]
