Key features

• 6.1-inch FHD+ OLED display with 120Hz refresh; supported rates depend on content and compatibility.
• Front stereo speakers, a 3.5 mm audio jack and LDAC wireless audio with compatible headphones.
• Dedicated shutter button for quick camera access, including when the screen is off.
• 50MP main and 13MP ultrawide rear sensors, both recording 12MP photos, with optical stabilization on the main camera.
• 5000 mAh standard-capacity battery with USB Power Delivery fast charging; charger and cable sold separately.
• Android 16 with up to four OS upgrades and six years of security updates, subject to purchase timing.

OLED viewing and flexible listening

The FHD+ OLED screen combines 1080 x 2340 resolution with a 19.5:9 aspect ratio. Its 120Hz refresh rate supports smoother scrolling in compatible content, while automatic color adjustment responds to ambient conditions. Sony specifies full DCI-P3 coverage and Video Image Optimization for the display.

Front stereo speakers provide playback from the front of the phone, while the 3.5 mm jack supports a direct wired connection. High-Resolution Audio and LDAC wireless listening require compatible headphones, sold separately. DSEE Ultimate and 360 Reality Audio add further listening options, with service, content, compatible-device and subscription requirements where applicable.

Quick camera access and three framing choices

A press of the dedicated shutter button launches the camera even with the screen off. The rear cameras provide 16 mm ultrawide and 24 mm wide views, plus a 48 mm zoom framing option from the main camera. The 1/1.56-inch main sensor works with optical image stabilization; the camera’s effective sensor resolution and recorded photo resolution are listed separately below.

Night shooting, HDR photography, Look effects, panorama and bokeh give you different ways to compose a shot. The shutter button also supports quick screenshots within apps. Double-clicking the power button opens the Reward & Pay menu for access to payment, shopping and other selected apps.

Battery care and software longevity

The 5000 mAh battery supports USB Power Delivery fast charging, Xperia Adaptive Charging, Battery Care and STAMINA Mode. Sony’s up-to-two-day battery claim is based on a daily test profile of six hours of mixed active use and 18 hours of standby; actual endurance depends on use and environment. A compatible charger and cable are separate purchases.

Android 16 is supplied with a stated support plan of up to four Android upgrades and up to six years of security updates. The available upgrade count and remaining support period depend on when the phone is purchased. Battery-management functions help limit overcharging and heat, with Sony’s up-to-four-year battery-health claim based on charging and discharging simulations.

Lightweight design with practical expansion

At approximately 168 g and 153 x 72 x 8.3 mm, the phone pairs a frosted Translucent Layer finish with Corning Gorilla Glass Victus 2 on the display. IP65/68 water and dust resistance is subject to Sony’s care conditions: avoid immersion and salt or chlorinated water, keep covers closed and dry the USB port completely before charging.

The microSDXC slot supports cards up to 2 TB, sold separately, and the SIM tray opens without a tool. The Snapdragon 6 Gen 3 platform works with 8GB of physical RAM; up to 6GB of virtual RAM is an additional software feature and does not increase installed physical RAM. Smart connectivity can switch from an unreliable Wi-Fi connection to mobile data.
