TheSony Xperia 1 is anAndroidsmartphone made bySony.[5] Part of Sony's flagshipXperia series, the device was announced to the public at a press conference held at the annual 2019Mobile World Congress event on February 25, 2019.[6] It’s the world's first smartphone with anultrawide 21:9 aspect ratio4KHDROLED display, dubbed Cinema Wide, and Sony's first triple-lens camera system featuring Eye AF eye-tracking technology seen in the company'sAlpha line of professional-grade cameras.[7] The Xperia 1 was later joined by a more compact device, theXperia 5, which was revealed on 5 September 2019. Compared to the Xperia 1, the Xperia 5 has a smaller1080p screen, a smaller battery, and a non-centrally aligned camera module.[8][9]
On 25 October 2019, a upgraded version of the Sony Xperia 1 called theSony Xperia 1 Professional Edition (J9150) was released exclusively in Japan,[10] which is mainly soldSIM-unlocked and unlike the Japan-only carrier models, features a hybrid dual-SIM slot and has an internal storage capacity of128 GB like the J8110, J8170 and J9110 models.[10] The J9150 model, however, does not include support for the1seg mobile TV, nor does it include support for theMobile Feli Ca or theOsaifu-Keitai, unlike said carrier-only models.[11]
The Xperia 1 is designed around the new 21:9 aspect ratio display, a rework from the previous "Ambient Flow" design seen in theXperia XZ3. It consists of a 7000-series aluminum alloy chassis that has a curved edge all around the device, a 2.5D scratch-resistant front and curved-edged back glass panels made ofCorning Gorilla Glass 6, resulting in a more squarish but symmetrical design aesthetic, reminiscent of the classic "Omni Balance" design language of old Xperia Z-series flagships. The most defining change in the Xperia 1, as it was in the Xperia XZ2 trio and the XZ3, are the placement of the camera on the back. It is centrally aligned on the upper half of the device, as opposed to being placed on the top-left side like in previous Xperia devices. TheNFC antenna is placed on the left-handed side of the new triple-lens camera system, housed in a raised module with chrome beveled edges surrounding it, along with the color sensing (RGBC-IR sensor) and the single LED flash up top.
The front houses the 6.5 in (170 mm) ultra-wide 4K HDROLED display with slight curve corners and very minimal bezels on both sides, and significantly slim (when compared to the XZ3) but at the metrical top and bottom bezels. On the top bezel is the earpiece that acts as part of the hybrid dual-stereo speaker setup, the 8 MP front-facing camera, ambient light and proximity sensor and anotification LED. The hybrid SIM tray is located on the top of the device, with a sealed pull-out type of cover for added ingress protection. The bottom bezel has shrunk significantly and is blank, omitting the company logo entirely. The second part of the stereo speaker is relegated to the bottom along with the lone USB Type-C port and primary microphone.
The fingerprint sensor is now re-positioned back to the right-hand side of the device as with previous XZ Series devices and is now activated even in the US market. This is possible, in part because the power button is now separate. To mitigate this, scanner is now an always-on affair. Directly above the fingerprint scanner is the volume rocker, and below the power button near the bottom edge is the 2-stage camera shutter button, very rare in smartphones nowadays and a unique staple of Xperia devices ever since.
The Xperia 1's dimensions are 167 mm (6.6 in) in height, with a width of 72 mm (2.8 in) and a depth of 8.2 mm (0.32 in) and weighs approximately 178 g (6.3 oz). It is ratedIP65/IP68 dust/waterproof up to 1.5 m for 30 minutes. The device comes in 4 colors: Black, White, Gray and in some markets, Purple.

The Xperia 1 is powered by theQualcommSnapdragon 855 chipset, built on a 7nm process technology with 8Kryo 485 processors in a 1 + 3 + 4 configuration (1x 2.84 GHzGold Prime, 3x 2.42 GHzGold, and 4x 1.8 GHzSilver), 6 GB ofLPDDR4XRAM and anAdreno 640 for graphics rendering. It has the option a 64 GB (SO-03L, SOV4,0, and 802SO models) or 128 GB (J8110, J8170, J9110 and J9150 models)UFS 2.1 internal storage and comes in a single-SIM or hybrid dual-SIM versions depending on region, with both featuring 5CALTE Cat.19 of up to 1.6 Gbit/s download speeds. It also hasmicroSD card expansion of up to 512 GB in a hybrid SIM 2 slot setup.
The Xperia 1 showcases the world's first 6.5 in (170 mm) 21:9 aspect ratio4KHDROLED display officially calledCinema Wide,[12] with a 3840 × 1644 resolution, and 643 ppi pixel density. This aspect ratio was previously found inLG New Chocolate (BL40). In a more practical approach, the display resolution on regular usage and throughout the UI only is at PPI ppi, which is still considered sharp and is especially beneficial for the battery. The full 4K resolution only triggers automatically when compatible content is displayed on-screen.
The Xperia 1 also has a new system-wide color setting feature, called"Creator mode", alongside the "Standard" and "Super-vivid" modes. When activated, the Xperia 1 tries its best to display accurate colors as close as possible to the original intention of the content creator. It has a BT-2022 certification HDR, which is more versatile thanHDR10. This supports the wide color space ITU-R BT.2020m and as DCI P3 and Illuminant D65. It does however require the source to be encoded with the proper color info to take advantage of the feature. The device also has the newX1 for mobile engine borrowed from theirBRAVIA TV line, optimizing content that is not natively-created for the high contrast and color palette of the OLED panel.

The Xperia 1 further improves and upgrades the previous Motion Eye camera from the XZ3 with a Sony-firstTriple lens camera system. It is composed of the primary 12.2 MP 1/2.55"Exmor RS for mobile memory-stacked Dual Photo Diode (2PD) sensor with a 1.4 μm behind anf/1.6aperture, 26 mm "regular wide" lens; a second 12 MP 1/3.4" RGB sensor with a 1.0 μm behind anf/2.4 aperture, 52 mm lens and 2x optical zoom for "telephoto"; and a third 12 MP 1/3.4" RGB sensor with a 1.0 μm sitting behind anf/2.4 aperture, 16 mm 130° "ultra-wide-angle" lens. They are paired with theRGBC-IR color spectrum sensor that assists thewhite balance of the camera by providing additional light data from the surrounding conditions of the scene, and a single LED flash. The frontselfie camera has a 1/4" 8-megapixel sensor with anf/2.0 lens and Steady Shot with Intelligent Active Mode (5-axisstabilization).
The Xperia 1 is capable of capturing 4K HDR video, and the two sensors (primary and telephoto) are optically stabilized, a first for an Xperia device, dubbedOpticalSteady Shot. It has an Intelligent Active Mode where it which alongside the standard electronicSteady Shot (5-axis EIS + OIS) for better video stabilization. Exclusive for the Xperia 1 is theBIONZ X for mobile image-processing engine, borrowed from Sony'sAlpha professional cameras. This brings pro camera Alpha technologies to the Xperia line for a more professional approach to mobile photography.
First and unique for the Xperia 1 is the newfast Eye AF. It is an intelligent focusing system that focuses and locks into a subject's eye for an impressively accurate subject tracking. It can accurately calculate and measure the distance of the subject it is currently tracking from the device, and, through machine learning, can also remember the particular person's eye if he/she was either blocked by view or moved out of the frame for a while and then back in.
An additional camera feature isCinema Pro, which is a video capture application designed in collaboration with Sony'sCineAlta division and squarely aimed at cinematography enthusiasts. Other unique camera features of the Xperia 1 include an Autofocus burst with up to 10 fps of AF/AE tracking, Predictive Hybrid Autofocus, an Anti-distortion shutter and RAW image file recording with RAW noise reduction.
The Xperia 1 also hasPredictive Capture. When it detects fast-paced movement, the camera automatically captures a maximum of four photos before the shutter button is pressed, and lets the user select the best one afterwards. This is done without any user intervention and is possible due to the same built-in DRAM chip on the image sensor used in capturing the 960 fps super slow-motion videos. Xperia 1 marks the last device from Xperia devices to have Sony's 960fps fps super slow-motion videos as Xperia 5 and Xperia 1 II no longer support the feature due to different hardwares.
The Xperia 1 is powered by a non-removable 3,330mAhlithium-ion battery. Charging and data transfer is handled by aUSB-C3.1 port with support for USB Power Delivery. It also has Qnovo adaptive charging technology built-in which allows the device to monitor the cell's electrochemical processes in real time and adjust charging parameters accordingly to minimize cell damage and extend the battery unit's lifespan.
The Xperia 1 also comes with Battery Care, Sony's proprietary charging algorithm that controls the charging process of the phone throughmachine learning. It recognizes the user's charging habits for a certain period and automatically adjusts itself to the pattern, for example an overnight charge, by stopping the initial charging to about 80–90 percent, and then continuing it until full from where it left off the next day. This effectively prevents the unnecessary damage to the battery's cells from excessive heat and current due toovercharging, further increasing the battery's life span.
The Xperia 1, like the Xperia XZ2 that started it, has the standard3.5 mm audio jack omitted in favor of wireless. To make up for the removal, it has improved wireless audio connectivity along withLDAC, an audio coding technology developed in-house by Sony which is now a part of the Android Open Source Project,[13] that enables the transmission of 24-bit/96 kHz High-Resolution (Hi-Res) audio content over Bluetooth at up to 990 kbit/s, three times faster than conventional audio streaming codecs, to compatible audio devices. It also comes withDolby Atmos for a better sound reproduction.
Other connectivity options includeBluetooth 5 withaptX HD andLow Energy,NFC, 4x4MIMO antennas for fast Wi-Fi and cellular upload/download speeds,dual-band Wi-Fi a/b/g/n/ac,Wi-Fi Direct,DLNA,GPS (withA-GPS),GLONASS,BeiDou andGalileo satellite positioning. The Xperia 1, like most high-end smartphone nowadays, has no FM radio.
The Sony Xperia 1 is launched with theAndroid 9.0 "Pie" operating system, along with Smart Stamina battery saving modes and Sony's proprietary multimedia apps. It features an improvedSide Sense. It works through a pair of touch-sensitive areas on either side of the phone. A tap or slide triggers various actions set by the user, most of which configurable including the sensitivity of the touch areas. Another feature by the Side Sense isPair shortcut which, upon launch from the Side Sense window, will trigger a split-screen setup with the selected pair of user-customizable apps instantly.In December 2019, Sony began to releaseAndroid 10 for the Xperia 1.[14]
