Case seller spotlights Sony Xperia 5 VI - smartphone release not expected this year

Contrary to previous reports, Sony will release another smartphone in the Xperia 5 series this year. This is indicated by a page on the online store of the European seller Alza, who has put up for sale the Spigen Rugged Armor protective case for the Sony Xperia 5 VI model.

The price of the case is €16.90. Although it is not yet in stock, the store page allows you to see some details of the Sony Xperia 5 VI smartphone. For example, the LED flash is located between the two cameras, whereas the flash on the Xperia 5 V is located to the left. Otherwise, the design of the Xperia 5 V and Xperia 5 VI seems to be quite similar. It appears that the phones will also be almost the same in size.

Sony has not yet mentioned the Xperia 5 VI, but based on past history, the phone should be announced in September. Considering that the Xperia 5 V was a significant improvement over the previous model, it can be expected that the same will happen with the Xperia 5 VI.

The Sony Xperia 5 VI is expected to be equipped with the Qualcomm Snapdragon 8 Gen 3 processor and a relatively compact 6.1-inch OLED display with Corning Gorilla Glass protection. Based on the images published, the device will have a dual camera on the rear panel. For its predecessor, this was a combination of a main 48-megapixel module and a 12-megapixel ultra-wide module. It is also expected that the device will retain the battery from the Xperia 5 V, providing a capacity of 5000 mAh.
