Sony Xperia 10 VI appears on Geekbench with Snapdragon 6 Gen 1

Sony will launch the new Xperia 10 with two cameras, and today, we also learned the Mk. VI version will run on Snapdragon 6 Gen 1. The phone appeared on Geekbench with model number XQ-ES72 and a chipset named “parrot” which is the codename for the midrange platform.

The listing also revealed Android 14 out of the box and an 8 GB RAM option.

The phone is just around the corner, as it has been certified by the FCC. The Japanese source also confirmed Sony will sell the Xperia 10 VI through all major carriers and retailers at home. The global availability of the 2024 midranger is still a big unknown, but more info should pop up soon.

We do know Sony is removing the telephoto camera and will launch Xperia 10 VI in Black, White, and Powder Blue colors. The overall design will stick to flat sides, flat panels and thin bezels on top and bottom instead of notches or punch holes.

8GB model of Xperia 10 V were sold only in certain countries, most will get 6GB model.

the Xperia 10 VI could be a solid alternative to the new Pixel 8a, considering that the Snapdragon 6 Gen 1 only trails the Tensor G3 by 7% in our benchmarks. According to notebookcheck
