Sony Xperia 10 III could be Sony’s first cheap 5G phone
A new rumor suggests the Sony Xperia 10 III smartphone will sport a Snapdragon 690 chipset, which has powered other mid-range phones launching in 2020, likely making it Sony’s first 5G mid-range handset.
The Snapdragon 690 was mentioned (under the model number sm6350) in a chunk of code tweeted by code diver Nodar Sikharulidze that referred to upcoming phones. Given its surfacing now, it’s likely referring to the Xperia 10 III, while the other chipset mentioned – the Snapdragon 875 – is likely meant for the flagship Sony Xperia 1 III.
It’s a little bit of hearsay, and take it with a grain of salt, but connecting the dots suggests these two phones could be coming soon. Sony released the Xperia 10 II earlier this year but evidently passed on making a Sony Xperia 10 II Plus, which would allegedly have packed a Snapdragon 720 chipset, in order to focus on a 5G model, theorizes GSM Arena.
The Snapdragon 690 would enable the Xperia 10 III to connect to sub-6 5G (but not mmWave). The Xperia 10 III may have more than four cameras, Sikharulidze told GSM Arena, and the along with an Xperia 1 III, Sony’s lineup next year could also include a Helio P35-packing affordable Sony Xperia L5.
