Xperia 1 VI and 10 VI camera islands' leak suggests new larger modules
Xperia 1 VI and 10 VI camera islands' leak suggests new larger modules
Both are physically larger than the protectors for their predecessor but that may not translate to larger camera sensors.
Maybe they should fix the naming. What the hell does 1 VI and 10 VI mean?
I'm not sure why this comes up in every Sony post. Their naming scheme is dirt simple and stable unlike other brands. 1 is flagship, 5 is their midrange and 10 is their low end. Mark number is generation.
Simpler than pro, max, plus, FE, lite, 5g etc from all the other brands. I swear people just like to bitch about Sony.
For people explicitly following Sony, sure it makes sense. For the average consumer that doesn't know anything about that stuff, no it doesn't.
For the average consumer and the average company, the bigger the number means the newer the device (ex: iPhone 12 vs iPhone 11 S23 vs S22, etc.). And then it's pretty easy to tell that words like "pro," "max," or "ultra" denote a more high end experience than those without in the title (ex: S23 vs S23 ultra). Obviously there are nuances and variations, but it's easy enough for the average consumer to quickly skim before inquiring with a salesperson.
Your average consumer doesn't delve deep into hardcore researching everything and won't be sitting there following the specific naming scheme of every single product line of every company. They just want to quickly be able to tell what the latest and greatest models are.
The rest of the world isn't techie like Lemmy/Reddit. So no, the naming schemes don't make any sense.
Sony really has no idea how to name some of their product lines lmao
Will it have more than a pitiful 2 years of software updates? If not, not interested.
If I didn't need my banking and identity apps so bad, I would slap lineage on my 5ii.
