Sony Xperia 1 VI
On May 15, 2024, Sony officially released the Xperia 1 VI.

In terms of core parameters, the Sony Xperia 1 VI is equipped with a Snapdragon 8 Gen3 processor, 12GB of memory, a built-in 5000mAh battery, and supports 30W fast charging. The ancestral 3.5mm headphone jack is also included.
In terms of imaging, the Xperia 1 VI camera adopts a three main camera configuration, namely a 48 megapixel wide-angle main camera, a 12 megapixel telephoto camera, and a 12 megapixel ultra wide angle camera, supporting optical stabilization.
