Sony Xperia 1 IV 5G 256GB/12GB Unlocked (Purple)
Building on the XPERIA 1 III, the Sony XPERIA 1 IV 5G Smartphone provides significant technological improvements that make it an enticing option for everyone from pro photographers to content creators across every major platform. It marries sophisticated mobile communication and internet access utilizing 5G sub6 and mmWave, with pro photo abilities that take cues from their Sony Alpha cameras. Each of the rear 12MP lenses can shoot in 4K HDR at up to 120 fps, and the telephoto lens sports actual optical zoom with a range of 85 to 125mm. Add in a 6.5" 4K 120 Hz HDR display, durable water-resistant chassis, and ample 256GB/512GB of storage, and the new XPERIA 1 IV can tackle nearly any mobile project.
Each of the rear lenses supports 4K HDR video at up to 120 fps, but creators will really love the optics and shooting adjustments implemented by Sony's Alpha 9 engineers. The three lenses include a 12MP 16mm ultra-wide, a 12MP 24mm wide angle, and a 12MP telephoto. The telephoto in particular stands out with an optical zoom range of 85 to 125mm. You can actually seamlessly zoom from 16 to 375mm, switching from digital to optical and back.
The display is also upgraded from the XPERIA 1 III, with a brighter 6.5" 4K 120 Hz HDR OLED screen with a cinematic 21:9 aspect ratio. The display's quality makes it a versatile feature, letting you use it as a viewfinder for filming, as a camera monitor, or to stream UHD media and play the latest in mobile gaming.
A micro-HDMI input on the XPERIA 1 IV sets it apart from other smartphones, adding one more professional-type feature to the mix. You can use it to livestream footage from your DSLR or connect the XPERIA 1 IV to your camera to use as a hi-res monitor.
From livestreaming to AI-processed audio, all of it can be sent to and downloaded from the cloud even faster with the XPERIA 1 IV. Compared to the XPERIA 1 III, you now get access to both sub6 and the super-fast mmWave spectrums of 5G where available. This can equate to download speeds of up to 5.6 Gb/s and uploads up to 480 Mb/s.
