The Sony Xperia lineup has been going through some difficult times recently, with the company scrapping the Xperia 5 series and postponing the official announcement of the flagship Xperia 1. Some Xperia fans were even concerned about the future of Xperia phones, but it seems that we’re going to get at least one more Xperia 1 model.
The Xperia 1 VII is right around the corner, and even though we don’t have official confirmation yet, there are some credible leaks and rumors about Sony’s latest flagship, so we’re pretty sure this model is happening.
With that said, it will be interesting and important to compare the upcoming Xperia 1 VII with its predecessor, the Mark VI device, as the latter brought some radical changes to the Xperia experience (what a tongue twister).
The Xperia 1 VI ditched the 4K display and the 21:9 aspect ratio in favor of a more traditional (or should we say widespread) 19.5:9 aspect ratio and an FHD+ resolution. This created a bit of a backlash from avid Sony fans, and now it seems that Sony’s backtracking some of these changes with the Xperia 1 VII.
But let’s not get ahead of ourselves. This preliminary comparison will explore in detail all the differences (and similarities) between these two models. When Sony launches the Xperia 1 VII, we will update the article with all the tests and benchmarks, camera samples, and a final verdict, but for now, let’s pit those two against each other based on the available information.
