The Sony Xperia 10 VIII is the corporate’s upcoming mid-range smartphone. This machine will turn out to be official in a few days, on August 25. Sony announced the press event a few days in the past, and it’s fairly apparent what’s coming.
Sony didn’t precisely affirm that it’s the Xperia 10 VIII, however contemplating current stories and the truth that this occasion is a couple of new “Xperia Product”, it’s apparent. With that being mentioned, we’ve an unique Sony Xperia 10 VIII leak for you at the moment, exhibiting you a design of the telephone itself.
Right here’s the design of the Sony Xperia 10 VIII
In case you take a look at the picture beneath, you’ll see the telephone in a woman’s hand. This image exhibits us solely the again of the machine. The telephone itself doesn’t look fully white, although; it’s as if it has a touch of inexperienced in there. Just a bit bit, although.

You’ll discover that the telephone resembles its predecessor, the Xperia 10 VII, fairly a bit. The truth is, I’m struggling to see a distinction based mostly on this picture. The backplate is flat, and there’s a horizontal digicam bar on the prime of the again facet. There are two cameras in there, and a Sony emblem subsequent to them. An LED flash can be there, because it was on the Xperia 10 VII.
We are able to solely assume that the entrance of the telephone will even be just like the predecessor. If that finally ends up being the case, we gained’t get a show digicam gap or notch, however as an alternative the highest and backside bezels will likely be a bit thicker than the facet bezels.
It looks like it can have a side-facing fingerprint scanner as soon as once more
What it’s also possible to see on this picture, should you take a more in-depth look, is that the telephone has quantity rocker buttons on the suitable facet, with an influence/lock key proper beneath them. That energy/lock key doubles as a fingerprint scanner, which is why it’s not protruding from the facet.
We don’t see a bodily digicam shutter right here, but it surely’s most likely there on the suitable facet, because it was on the Xperia 10 VII. The woman’s hand might be masking it. We can’t affirm that, although.
The Sony Xperia 10 VIII surfaced on Geekbench fairly just lately. It managed to attain 871 factors in a single-core check and three,028 factors in a multi-core check. That itemizing additionally confirmed that the telephone will embody 8GB of RAM, and, seemingly, the Snapdragon 6 Gen 3 processor.
A current itemizing reported Android 16 out of the field
That’s fairly odd, as that very same chip was used within the Xperia 10 VII. It’s additionally bizarre that Android 16 is talked about on Geekbench, so it’s attainable that it’ll launch with Android 16 and never Android 17.
In the mean time, this machine appears to be like method too just like its predecessor. The design appears to be like principally the identical from this angle, whereas the SoC and RAM rely additionally appear unchanged. It stays to be seen what Sony plans to vary. We’ll discover out in a few days.
