IT House April 17 news, according to Sumaho Digest reported that Sony's next flagship phone Xperia 1 IV has appeared on the running sub-platform Geekbench.
According to the list, the phone model is XQ-CT54, equipped with a chip codenamed "taro", which is the code name of Qualcomm Snapdragon 8 Gen1. Earlier there were rumors that the phone might be powered by the Snapdragon 8 Gen1 Plus processor, but now it seems that this is not the case.
IT House learned that its single-core test score is 1204 points, and the multi-core test score is 3352 points, which is consistent with the performance of the Snapdragon 8 Gen1 processor.
The information also shows that at least one model of the Sony Xperia 1 IV will have 12GB of RAM, and the phone will run Android 12. It is reported that the machine will have a maximum of 16GB of memory and 512GB of storage.
In addition, the XQ-CT54 is a European model, and the other two models, the XQ-CT72 and XQ-CQ72, appeared in the Eurasian Economic Commission (EEC) database as early as November.
According to previous news, the Xperia 1 IV camera will usher in a major upgrade, which may lead to a 6% to 20% increase in its price. The Xperia 1 III is already more expensive than most flagship phones in 2022, starting at $8,499, so it's hard to say whether Sony will continue to raise the price of the new phone.
The Xperia 1 IV is also expected to offer a 6.5-inch 120Hz screen and a 5000mAh battery, and may retain physical fingerprint recognition and a 3.5mm headphone jack.
Given that the phone has been certified by the EEC and also appears on Geekbench, it is expected to be released soon, and there are rumors that the phone will be available in May.
