The Sony Xperia 1 II[a] is an Android smartphone manufactured by Sony Mobile. Part of Sony's Xperia series, the phone was announced along with the mid-range Xperia 10 II on February 24, 2020. Key upgrades over its predecessor, the Xperia 1, include support for 5G connectivity and Qi wireless charging, and a triple-lens camera which incorporates ZEISS-branded lenses with T✻ (T-Star) anti-reflective coating as well as technology brought over from Sony's Alpha camera lineup.[5][6][7][8][9]

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

Design

[edit]

The Xperia 1 II retains Sony's signature square design that is seen on previous Xperia phones.[5] The phone has Corning Gorilla Glass 6 protection on the front and back as well as IP65 and IP68 certifications for water resistance.[6][10] 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.[5] The left side of the phone contains a compartment for a SIM card and a microSD card, while the right side contains a fingerprint reader embedded into the power button, a volume rocker and a shutter button.[5] The rear cameras are arranged in a vertical strip.[5] The phone shipped in five colors with the first three: Black, Purple and White available globally.[10] There are also two colors exclusive to East Asian markets, Frosted Black for Japan and Mainland China[11][12] and Mirror Lake Green for Mainland China and Taiwan.[13]

Specifications

[edit]

Hardware

[edit]

The Xperia 1 II has a Qualcomm Snapdragon 865 SoC and an Adreno 650 GPU, accompanied by 8 GB or 12 GB of RAM, 256 GB storage space (which can be expanded up to 1 TB via the microSD[broken anchor] card slot), and one nano SIM card slot.[7] 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".[7] 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.[5] The phone has front-facing dual stereo speakers and a 3.5 mm audio jack.[5][7] The latter feature was not present on Sony's previous flagship phone,[6] and technology journalists noted it as unusual in a flagship smartphones in 2020.[5][14][15]

Camera

[edit]

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.[6][7] The phone has support for 4K video recording for up to 60 FPS and for 2K for up to 120 FPS.[6][10] Android 11 update enables 4K video recording up to 120 FPS[16]

Software

[edit]

The Xperia 1 II released with Android 10, now updated to Android 12. Sony has also paired the phone's camera tech with a "Photo Pro" mode developed by Sony's camera division α (Alpha) and a "Cinema Pro" mode developed by Sony's cinematography division CineAlta, whose features take after Sony's Alpha and CineAlta cameras.[5][6]
