Sony Xperia 1 VI: Features

display is now brighter too – up from 900 nits to 1,300 nits – and smarter – the LTPO panel

The legendary  4K OLED 21:9 format of the Xperia 1 VI has been replaced with a 1080x2340px OLED display with a 19.5:9 aspect ratio.

This change makes the screen a little bit larger with the same 6.5-inch diagonal size.

The brightness of the display has been increased to 1,300 nits, and it can support variable refresh rates from 1Hz up to 120Hz.

Sony has mentioned that the battery life of the 5,000mAh battery can last two days and charge to 50% in 30 minutes with a 30W charger, so an improvement in battery life is expected.

Couple that with the fact that, thanks to Battery Care and Xperia Adaptive Charging technology, the battery is said to retain 80% of its capacity even after four years.

There’s a new Premium Audio Circuit for better sound from the 3.5mm headphone connector.

Internally, the Snapdragon 8 Gen 3 chip is paired to 12GB of RAM and 256GB of storage in Europe, or 512GB in Japan and East Asia.
