Recently, smartphone manufacturers really do not appreciate the format of compact flagships. Even Apple, which released the iPhone mini two years in a row, eventually gave up and replaced this model with the iPhone Plus.

However, there is one brand that is actively pushing for the release of small high-end smartphones. And that brand is Sony.

The company has announced that the Xperia 5 IV will be announced soon. First, the device will be unveiled in China on October 20.

A distinctive feature of the device should be the size – the diagonal of its screen is 6.1 inches, and the width of the case – 67 mm, it will be even smaller than the Xiaomi Mi 12S and Samsung Galaxy S22.

From other points, we can note the Snapdragon 8 Gen 1 processor as the basis, 8 GB of RAM and 256 GB of permanent memory. At the same time, the battery capacity of the Sony Xperia 5 IV will be 5000 mAh, which is quite a lot for its size. It will also support fast charging at 30 W.
