Sony has recently introduced the Xperia 1 V smartphone to the global market, serving as the successor to the flagship Xperia 1 IV. This new device showcases the latest Exmor T stacked sensors for enhanced camera capabilities. Furthermore, it appears that Sony is also gearing up for the launch of the anticipated successor to the Xperia Pro-I, expected to be named the Xperia Pro-I II.
Recently, Sumahodigest leaked renders of
the highly anticipated Sony Xperia Pro-I II. The leaked images reveal the
presence of two prominent cameras, sparking speculation that the device might
be equipped with two 1.0″ Type sensors. In comparison, its predecessor featured
a single sensor for the main shooter.
Adding to the excitement, there are rumors
circulating that Sony is planning to release a future smartphone equipped with
a “double-layer transistor stacked pixel sensor” that will surpass the size of
the already impressive 1.0″ Type sensor. This is the same technology Sony
recently debuted on the Xperia 1 V smartphone, naming it the Exmor T stacked sensor.
Sony has implemented a unique approach by
separating the photodiode and transistor, placing them on separate layers that
are stacked together. This innovative design enables independent adjustments to
the size of each component, leading to substantial improvements in light
capture and reduced noise levels. Sony claims that the new camera sensor can
deliver twice the performance in low-light conditions compared to its
predecessor.
While it remains uncertain whether this
advanced sensor will be featured in the upcoming Xperia Pro-I II, the
possibility has piqued curiosity among enthusiasts.
