Watch the Sony Xperia 1 VI launch live here

2024-05-08

While it was originally slated to May 17, the global Sony Xperia event is actually scheduled for May 14 – it starts at 7:00 GMT and you can watch the livestream below.

Spoiler alert, based on leaks so far we will see two-thirds of the Mark VI series. There have been leaked renders for the Sony Xperia 1 VI and Xperia 10 VI, the Model 5 will likely be left for a later event. That was the case with the Mark V series last year too, the question is how long we will have to wait between announcement and release.

The answer awaits in the stream below, along with confirmations on all the rumors we’ve heard so far on Mark VI cameras, displays and more.

We don’t know about you, but the one detail that we’re most eager to hear is about software support – will Sony follow Google, Samsung and others into stretching out the phone’s lifespan? Maybe not 7 years, but more than 2 OS updates seems like a must.
