TL;DR Sony’s latest Android smartphone is going official with the launch of the Xperia 1 VIII.
This year’s model runs a Qualcomm Snapdragon 8 Elite Gen 5.
Camera hardware gets a nice upgrade with a big new 1/1.56-inch telephoto sensor.
Today’s smartphone market is somehow both the most impressive we’ve ever seen, and a shadow of its former self. While models like Samsung’s TriFold push the limits of what’s possible, long-time player Asus just dipped out of the game, and OnePlus may not be far behind, leaving us with less and less competition. With all that upheaval in mind, it’s almost shocking that Sony has kept at it for as long as it has. After last year’s Xperia 1 VII left us with mixed feelings, there’s more on the line than ever for a follow-up — and today Sony finally shows its cards with the launch of the Xperia 1 VIII.
