"Sony has announced the Xperia 10 VII, a midrange Android phone that's launching in the UK, Europe, and Asia, though not the US. It's more notable than most Sony phones because it marks the first major change to the rear design in over five years: a camera bar, just like recent Pixels, and now even iPhones. The Xperia Android line has kept its cameras vertically stacked in one corner since the first-generation Xperia 5 in 2019, with only rare exceptions like the standalone Xperia Pro-I."
"But the 10 VII reinvents that design language with a horizontal camera pair mounted in a pill-shaped raised bar that stretches across the phone's back. The matte plastic body comes in black, white, or turquoise, and looks like no Xperia phone before it. It looks a little more like Google's Pixel phones, a design also aped by Apple's iPhone Air this week. Things are more recognizable from the front, with Sony's familiar insistence on a chunky bezel above and below the display."
The Xperia 10 VII introduces a stretched pill-shaped camera bar across a matte plastic back available in black, white, or turquoise, replacing the long-standing corner vertical camera stack. The phone has a 6.1-inch 120Hz display with a 19.5:9 aspect ratio and chunky top and bottom bezels that house front-facing stereo speakers. It includes a 3.5mm headphone jack, expandable microSD storage, a side-mounted single-stage camera shutter button, and an IP65/68 rating. Internal specs include a Qualcomm Snapdragon 6 Gen 3, dual rear cameras (50MP main, 13MP ultrawide), a 5,000mAh battery with wired charging, and availability in the UK, Europe, and Asia (not the US).
