Xperia 5 III will come a month after Xperia 1 III
Although almost on the same ship as LG and HTC, Sony is always not affected by the performance of its cellular business. In fact, it seems to take a sweet time while his competitors rush to issue a model after this year’s smartphone model to redeem the swamps last year. Recently announced the initial pre-order for Xperia 1 III in the US, but its availability will not occur until a month later. Likewise, Xperia 5 III won’t even be available until September, almost half a year after it was first announced.
It is difficult to categorize Xperia 5 III as a medium mobile phone, especially considering it runs on Snapdragon 888 like her proficient siblings. 8GB RAM and 128GB of storage do not fall far from the tree. It also has three 12MP cameras that almost sound similar to Xperia 1 III, at least on paper.
Devils are in detail, they say, and the difference between the two can be smooth but remain significant. The 6.1-inch screen is not only smaller but also has fewer pixels at 2520 × 1080. It also doesn’t have a fourth and more important telephoto camera, but at least redeems it with the features borrowed from Sony alpha cameras.
Naturally, it will have a lower price point than Xperia 1 III, even though Sony does not disclose that information in US press releases. Unhtfit European companies are fortunately more advanced with 999 EUR numbers. Considering the $ 1,299 Xperia 1 III received a 1,299 EUR price label in this region, it would be safe to assume that the Xperia 5 III would also cost $ 999 when hitting America.
The question now is “when?” The European announcement places September availability on Xperia 5 III, without a word on pre-orders. It can also be the same timeline for the arrival of the US, the assumption of Sony making cellphones available there at all.
