"The latest Xperia 1 VIII locks its telephoto camera to 70mm (2.9x magnification from the 24mm main lens). It then uses the higher resolution 48MP sensor for higher zoom levels. This module has an f/2.8 aperture and should perform better in the dark. However, the Mark 7 camera had a wider f/2.3 aperture at 3.5x zoom, which closed down to f/3.5 at the maximum extent of 7.1x."
"The other camera modules are the same as before - a 48MP 1/1.35" main (24mm f/1.9 lens with OIS) and a 48MP 1/1.56" ultra-wide (16mm f/2.0 lens), plus a 12MP selfie camera (1/2.9" sensor, 24mm f/2.0 lens). Sony says that RAW multi-frame processing is applied to all cameras, which helps to both extend the dynamic range and to reduce noise in low-light scenes. This also avoids issues like clipped highlights and crushed shadows."
"Besides the tele lens, the other major upgrade this generation is the Snapdragon 8 Elite Gen 5, up from last year's 8 Elite chip. This promises a 20% boost in CPU performance, a 23% faster GPU and up to 20% power usage reduction. The phone has a 12/256GB base configuration with different options pushing RAM up to 16GB and storage up to 1TB. Again, we will point out to the microSD slot - a rarity these days even on mid-rangers, let alone on flagships."
"The new Sony Xperia 1 VIII has a new 1/1.56" sensor inside its telephoto camera - it's four times larger than the sensor inside the Mark 7 model and it has four times the resolution too. The new model also redesigns the camera island, jumps to the latest Qualcomm chipset all while still maintaining trademark Xperia features like the expandable storage, the 3.5mm headphone jack and the two-stage shutter key."
Xperia 1 VIII includes a redesigned telephoto camera with a 1/1.56" sensor that is four times larger than the Mark 7 telephoto sensor and offers four times the resolution. The telephoto lens is fixed at 70mm, using the higher-resolution 48MP sensor for higher zoom levels. The telephoto aperture is f/2.8, aiming for better low-light results than the Mark 7’s f/2.3 at 3.5x zoom, which narrowed at longer zoom. The main camera remains a 48MP 1/1.35" 24mm f/1.9 with OIS, and the ultra-wide remains a 48MP 1/1.56" 16mm f/2.0. RAW multi-frame processing is applied across cameras to extend dynamic range and reduce noise. The phone uses Snapdragon 8 Elite Gen 5 with improved CPU, GPU, and power efficiency, and keeps expandable storage, a 3.5mm headphone jack, and a two-stage shutter key.
