Sony is preparing to refresh its iconic Xperia lineup with a new Sony Xperia 5G smartphone in 2025, likely the Sony Xperia 1 VI or Xperia Pro II. Staying true to its philosophy of cinema-grade visuals, professional-grade camera performance, and uncluttered Android UI, this new Xperia phone is expected to be a premium 5G flagship with best-in-class display and imaging capabilities. Leaks suggest that Sony is focused on delivering a no-compromise experience for creators, videographers, and Xperia loyalists.
Tall, Classic Sony Design with 4K HDR OLED Display
The upcoming Sony Xperia 5G model is expected to feature a 6.5-inch 4K HDR OLED panel with 21:9 cinematic aspect ratio, 120Hz refresh rate, and 1 billion colors. Known for its true-to-life color calibration, Xperia’s display will continue to support Creator Mode, BT.2020 color gamut, and 240Hz touch sampling, delivering an unmatched multimedia experience. The design will likely retain flat sides, IP68 rating, a dedicated shutter button, and Corning Gorilla Glass Victus 2 on both sides.
Snapdragon 8 Gen 3 & Sony’s Clean Android UI
Under the hood, the new Xperia flagship will be powered by the Snapdragon 8 Gen 3 chipset, offering top-tier performance for gaming, 4K video editing, and multitasking. The phone is expected to ship with 12GB/16GB RAM, 256GB or 512GB storage, and support for microSD expansion—a rarity in modern flagships. It will run Android 14 with a near-stock UI, minimal bloatware, and professional tools like Photo Pro, Video Pro, and Cinema Pro apps.
Triple-Lens Camera with ZEISS Optics & Real-Time Eye AF
Sony will once again deliver class-leading camera hardware, with a triple-lens setup featuring ZEISS T coating*, 12MP sensors, and real-time Eye Autofocus for humans and animals. The phone will support 4K 120fps video, 20fps burst shots with AF/AE, RAW output, and manual controls tailored for creators. Expect sensor-shift stabilization, super-wide dynamic range, and AI image processing optimized for content professionals.
Battery & Audio Excellence
The device will likely come with a 5,000mAh battery, 30W wired charging, 15W wireless charging, and reverse wireless support. True to Sony’s legacy, the phone is expected to feature a 3.5mm headphone jack, Hi-Res Audio, LDAC, DSEE Ultimate, and stereo front-facing speakers, making it a dream for audiophiles.
Sony Xperia 5G (2025) Launch Date & Expected Price
The Sony Xperia 5G flagship is expected to launch globally by Q4 2025, with pricing around ₹89,999 to ₹99,999 in India, competing with the Samsung Galaxy S25 Ultra, iPhone 16 Pro Max, and OnePlus 13 Pro. While not built for mass appeal, this Xperia will be a niche powerhouse built for loyalists, creators, and professionals who value camera accuracy, display precision, and clean UI.
