Sony Xperia Pro Full Specifications

After the presentation of rigor corresponding to the MWC never held, where Sony has unveiled the new Xperia 1 II - or as the brand itself pronounces it, closely following the nomenclature of its imaging equipment: Xperia 1 Mark II -, also reveals the intentions to go one step further in one of the segments that work best for you: the audiovisual.

Sony unveils the Xperia Pro, a smartphone still in development to target the niche more than the photographic experience and video recording. A space in which only RED has been introduced so far, with the dire results in its Hydrogen One.

The Xperia Pro is still a device in development, but not for this reason Sony has avoided giving too many details about it. We know that it will have the same Snapdragon 865 processor as the Xperia 1 II, as well as 5G connectivity that will be the most ambitious mmWave this time.

With these capabilities, Sony postulates it as a tool that enables real-time video retransmission, and it has already tested it in its first field tests by CNBC and Verizon in the United States. With the smartphone, you can make a real-time display of what is being recorded, thanks also to its extra dedicated HDMI port.

It is not yet clear that the best way to provide one of these expensive connectivity recording equipment is through a smartphone that is disabled as such while it is being used, but Sony puts some efforts in this direction.

Among its main features is an ultra-widescreen in 21: 9 6.5-inch format, in 4K resolution (3,840 x 1,644) in OLED and with HDR capabilities, with a Gorilla Glass 6 protection and IP68 resistance.

Interestingly, with the new generation, Sony recovers the 3.5 mm headphone jack in its highest range. In this way, it covers the space that the vast majority of manufacturers have left orphaned, by avoiding this component.

Their cameras will be the same as we see in the last Xperia 1: a main sensor of size 1 / 1.7", with 12 MP resolution and f / 1.7, a 70 mm telephoto (near 3x optical zoom) also of 12 MP with aperture f / 2.4, and a wide-angle of 16 mm next to an aperture f / 2.2. Also, it will have a ToF sensor for depth measurement, and its front camera will be 8 MP and f / 2.2.

The main processor will be accompanied by an 8 GB RAM, 512 GB of internal UFS memory and support for microSD cards of up to 1TB capacity. Its battery will be 4,000 mAh capacity and will have USB Power Delivery support for charging, probably in the 18 W of its brothers.

ISO

ISO measures the sensitivity of the image sensor. Image sensors operate within a specific ISO range. The higher the ISO rating is, the more sensitive to light the sensor is.

100-3200

Sensor format

The image sensor format is the shape and size of the image sensor. It is usually expressed in inches.

1/1.76"

Pixel size

Pixels are the basic building blocks of digital photography: they are the individual elements that capture light to compensate for your image. Pixels are usually measured in microns (μm). Generally, the higher the sensor size, the greater the pixel size, the greater the pixel size. The more light you can take, the better your photo.

1.8 µm (micrometers)

Aperture

The aperture is an opening or a hole through which light passes. Aperture controls the brightness of the image that travels through the lens and falls on the image sensor. The lower the f-stop number, the larger the diaphragm opening is, hence, the more light reaches the sensor. Usually, the f-stop number specified is the one that corresponds to the maximum possible diaphragm opening.

f/1.7

Focal Length

The focal length is the distance between the lens and the image sensor when the subject is in focus, usually stated in millimeters. The 35 mm equivalent indicates the focal length at which a full-frame camera will achieve an angle of view that's the same as the one of the camera of the mobile device. It is measured by multiplying the native focal length of the camera by the crop factor of the sensor. The crop factor itself can be determined as the ratio between the diagonal distances of the image sensor in the 35 mm camera and a given sensor.

24 mm *(35 mm / full frame)

Flash Type

The rear cameras of mobile devices use mainly a LED flash. It may arrive in a single, dual- or multi-light setup and in different arrangements.
