Sony Unveils Its New Sony Xperia 1 IV
The Sony Xperia 1 IV has been launched with one goal; to beat all other phones at mobile photography with its enhanced optical zoom lens. Most smartphone cameras have a tendency to blur images when they’re zoomed in, and Sony saw a gap to fill with that.
The Sony Xperia 1 IV has 3 cameras, one with a variable focal length of 85-125mm, and can be adjusted to just over 5x zoom. Its burst shooting mode can take up to 20 shots in 1 second and can shoot videos in 4K from every rear-facing lens.
Cost? It’s not cheap at $1599 when it launches!
All 3 12MP cameras can shoot slo-mo video in Ultra HD quality, it will last you a while with its 5,000mAh, its 6.5in display screen is 4K for awesome viewing of videos and other content, and it’s powered by the latest Qualcomm Snapdragon Gen 1 processor.
