2024 next generation Xperia lineup.
If all goes well, I think the release of the Xperia 1 VI and Xperia 5 VI will be the default path for the high-end.
Now, interesting new information has been leaked regarding the specifications surrounding the fingerprint sensor of this next-generation Xperia.
The other day, the person who provided information on some of the specifications of the Xperia 1 VI later posted an additional post. (However, this part has now been deleted for some reason)
The contents include:
It looks like Sony will finally switch from an electrostatic to an ultrasonic fingerprint sensor with the next generation Xperia.
However, this does not necessarily mean that the fingerprint sensor will be installed within the screen.
There are multiple models, including the Galaxy S series, that are equipped with ultrasonic fingerprint sensors. (However, optical methods are still the mainstream.)
On the other hand, as far as I know,There are no smartphones equipped with an ultrasonic fingerprint authentication sensor outside of the display.Should be.
Opinions are divided regarding the usability of the fingerprint sensor on the side, but if the next generation Xperia (Xperia 1 VI or 5 IV?) retains the side fingerprint sensor but uses an ultrasonic type sensor, that would be So it looks like it will be a very interesting specification.
Additionally, many models with side fingerprint sensors, including Xperia, have a problem where the fingerprint sensor disappears with all settings.
The cause of this problem is still a mystery, but some say that the electrostatic type is a contributing factor.
If so, it seems possible that the problem of “fingerprint sensor disappearing” could be resolved by changing the sensor method from electrostatic to optical, regardless of the location.
