Sony Announces XPERIA PRO-I Camera Smartphone, More Info at B&H

NEW YORK, Oct. 28, 2021 /PRNewswire/ -- B&H is pleased to introduce the upcoming release of Sony's new XPERIA PRO-I Camera smartphone. The XPERIA PRO-I continues to leverage Sony's incredible legacy of professional camera know-how in the mobile space and is targeted at smartphone users who are serious about getting outstanding image quality from their smartphone camera.

According to Sony, the XPERIA PRO-I is the world's first smartphone to be equipped with a 1.0-type image sensor with phase detection autofocus. The new sensor is an attempt by Sony to bring the incredible image quality in its Alpha line of products to the smartphone space. This particular sensor is based on the one from Sony's latest camera in the RX series, the RX100 VII.

Photographers and cinephiles alike will be excited to know the Sony XPERIA PRO-I will feature a triple rear camera system (16mm ultra-wide, 24mm wide, and 50mm standard lens) equipped with true ZEISS optics with a T* anti-reflective coating. It also features an 8MP front camera. The wide lens is special in that it features an aspherical glass element, which lends to its miniature size. This smartphone also benefits from the addition of a 3D iToF sensor, which can immediately measure distance between the phone and subject in real-time. Coupled with continuous autofocus and AI processing, shots of fast-moving subjects result in clear images and video. A wide range of features, including low-light performance, wide-range 12-bit raw dynamic range, as well as optical bokeh with dual f/2.0 and 4.0 apertures, will also be supported. When it comes to video creation, the XPERIA PRO-I is capable of recording in Ultra HD 4K resolution at 120 fps. It is also capable of continues eye autofocus and object tracking along with slow-motion support at 120 fps.

As far as other specs go, the XPERIA PRO-I features a large, 6.5" 21:9 CinemaWide OLED 120 Hz display, the Qualcomm Snapdragon 888 5G Mobile Platform, and 5G connectivity. The XPERIA PRO-I also offers solid support for those who require advanced connectivity, fast mobile gaming, and smooth-streaming content. Despite the large sensor, the phone still manages to retain a respectable 166 x 72 x 8.9mm footprint while packing in a 4500mAh battery.
