Sony Xperia 5 Iv Arrives In October With Serious Camera Specs

The Xperia 5 IV (side note: what will they call next year’s phone? The 5 V?) includes a standard 24mm-equivalent wide, 16mm-equivalent ultra-wide and 60mm-equivalent telephoto lens on the rear panel. This telephoto lens is refurbished, by the way. it is not the optical zoom lens on the 1 IV. Each uses a 12-megapixel sensor – lower resolution than most top 50 or even 100-megapixel cameras these days. Heck, even Apple seems to be moving away from 12 megapixels. Sony spokesman El Deane Naude says it’s a deliberate move to enable these high read speeds across all of its cameras and to maximize low-light sensitivity with larger pixels. Each of these rear cameras is capable of 120 fps read speeds, allowing for 4K / 120p video recording on each. They can also take photos at 20 fps with autofocus, auto exposure and HDR enabled. There’s also a new 12-megapixel sensor on the selfie camera. In addition to photography features, the Xperia 5 IV includes a 6.1-inch 1080p OLED with a 120Hz refresh rate and a tall 21:9 form factor, a Snapdragon 8 Gen 1 chipset, and a 5,000mAh battery — now, with wireless charging. It comes with 8GB of RAM and 128GB of storage, an IP65 / 68 rating, and relies on a few fast-disappearing hardware features: a headphone jack and a microSD card slot. There’s sub-6GHz 5G support — no mmWave — and a set of new, more powerful stereo speakers on the handset. 5 IV is scheduled to ship on October 27th.
