6/13/2023 0 Comments Sony xperia 1 iii![]() ![]() Flushing the button should make the device even more comfortable to hold. I can understand why Sony chose to carve a depression on the sides of the device for the power button due to the fingerprint sensor, but I probably would not have done the same for the dedicated Google Assistant key. The matte aluminum frame surrounding the Xperia 1 III has the same colour as the rest of the device, and is decent at repelling fingerprints (unlike the iPhone 12). The fingerprint resistant coating and comfort of the Xperia 1 III’s build makes this one of the very few devices that I would love to use without a case. With the Xperia 1 III, the sharp edges of the device have a pronounced 45-degree tilt so they do not bite into the flesh of your palms. Like the Xperia 10 III, the balanced, rectangular construction of the device is amazing to hold. The Sony logo is silkscreen-printed on the middle of the rear in transparent gloss, while regulatory details and the Xperia brand are in a faint white print. The rear is made of Gorilla Glass 6, but you may not realise it as the “smooth matte” treatment makes it not feel the part. Sony has tried its best to minimise bezels on the front, but the design decision to avoid a front camera cut-out and maintain a balanced outlook means small bezels along the top and bottom lengths of the device, giving us an 84.2 per cent screen-to-body ratio. Weight distribution of the device is very balanced, and the matte, dark purple body of our review unit looks and feels suitably premium in my hand. The Xperia 1 III comes in the same familiar, understated angular frame that has come to define the Xperia line. While the recommended retail price is a cool S$1,899, your purchase gets you a pair of Sony WF-1000XM3 Bluetooth earbuds, if the device is purchased from Sony’s own online store. ![]() Sony is bringing the variant of Xperia 1 III with 12GB of RAM and 256GB of storage to the Singapore market. We are reviewing its third variant today, updated and released for the Fall 2021 device release season. The Xperia 1 series has been Sony’s flagship for some time now.
