Alongside the flagship Xperia 1 V, Sony also announced the midrange Xperia 10 V last week. It is the successor to last year's Xperia 10 IV and brings a couple of upgrades like a brighter display, larger image sensors, and more. So let's get right into the specifications, features, availability, and expected price in Nepal of the Sony Xperia 10 V.

Sony Xperia 10 V Overview:

Design and Build 

Like its predecessor, Sony Xperia 10 V has a plastic back and Gorilla Glass Victus-protected display. The phone is IP65 and IP68 dust/water resistant, and it weighs just 159 grams. It comes in Black, White, Lavender, and Sage Green color options. The display here is a 6.1-inch FHD OLED panel with a tall 21:9 aspect ratio. Unfortunately, Sony hasn't upgraded to a higher refresh rate this time either as the Xperia 10 V's display still refreshes at just 60Hz. But Sony does say this screen can get up to 50% brighter than the one on the Xperia 10 IV, so that's something.

Camera

Moving on, Xperia 10 V has three cameras at the back housed in a pill-shaped array. Sony has replaced the 12MP main camera with a 48MP 1/2.0" Exmor RS sensor here. But its 8MP ultrawide, 8MP telephone zoom, and 8MP selfie camera remain pretty much the same.

Performance

Likewise, Xperia 10 V doesn't get any upgrade in the performance department either. It is powered by the same-old Snapdragon 695 5G chipset which is complemented by 6GB RAM and 128GB storage. There's still a microSD slot for expanding the memory though. The phone runs on Android 13 and is fueled by a big 5000mAh battery that supports USB-PD charging.
