Sony is gearing up to unveil its latest Xperia smartphones on May 17, and while specifics are still under wraps, anticipation is running high for what the Japanese tech giant has in store. It’s widely expected that Sony’s upcoming lineup will feature new iterations of its popular Xperia series, including the Xperia 1 VI, Xperia 5 VI, and Xperia 10 VI.
A recent report out of Taiwan has shed some light on the pricing for at least one of these new devices – the Xperia 1 VI. According to the leak, customers in Taiwan can expect to pay around TWD 39,900 for this flagship phone, which translates to roughly $1,225 or €1,145. While this may seem steep, it actually represents a price drop from the previous model’s launch price of TWD 41,990 ($1,290 / €1,205).
Interestingly enough, this puts the Xperia 1 VI in competition with Samsung’s high-end Galaxy S24 Ultra. With a starting price of $1,299.99 / €1,299.99 for the Galaxy S24 Ultra, Sony seems to be positioning its flagship as a viable alternative for consumers looking for top-tier performance and features.
As we eagerly await more details about Sony’s upcoming flagship phone and its potential features and specifications, one thing is clear – the battle for smartphone supremacy continues to heat up among tech giants like Sony and Samsung.
