Sony presented three new smartphones a few days ago. We want to take a closer look at one, the Sony Xperia 10 III, in this article.
The Xperia 10 III is a mid-range smartphone that can convince on paper with an IP68 certification and a telephoto lens.
Sony Xperia 10 III: Technical Specifications
When designing the front, we see a familiar image of the Japanese manufacturer. This year, too, you do without a recess in the display. Instead, the front camera is housed in a long, thick border above the panel. The elongated OLED display in 21: 9 aspect ratio measures 6 inches, has a pleasantly sharp resolution of 2.520 x 1.080 pixels and unfortunately does not support a smooth refresh rate of 90 or even 120 Hertz. Since 90 or even 120 Hertz OLED panels are gradually becoming the standard in the middle class, 60 Hertz in the new Xperia is rather disappointing.
Under the hood is the 5G-capable Snapdragon 690 from Qualcomm, which we already had from last year OnePlus North N10 5G The processor is supported by 6 GB of RAM and 128 GB of internal memory, which can be expanded via a micro SD card. The battery has a capacity of 4.500 mAh. In addition, the smartphone is IP68 protected against the ingress of water and dust.
On the back, Sony has installed three cameras on the top left. The main sensor has a resolution of 12 megapixels and is supported by an ultra-wide-angle camera also with 12 megapixels and an 8 megapixel telephoto camera that enables a 2x optical zoom. The front camera has a resolution of 8 megapixels.
The Sony Xperia 10 III will soon be available in black, white and blue. Unfortunately, at the moment there is no information about the market launch or the price.
