Sony Xperia 10 VII Leak Reveals 120 Hz OLED Display, Snapdragon 6 Gen 4, 50 MP Camera
A new report has details of Sony's upcoming midrange smartphone, the Xperia 10 VII, ahead of its official launch. According to information from Sumaho Digest, the Xperia 10 VII will have a 6.1-inch FHD+ OLED display, keeping the same size as previous models. The phone stays small, at least by modern standards, which is a big win for many.
The report says the phone will likely get a 120 Hz refresh rate, a first for the Xperia 10 series. Sony will keep the device's 21:9 aspect ratio, which goes well with the company's approach to media consumption and multitasking.
This phone is set to have the Snapdragon 6 Gen 4 chipset, replacing the Snapdragon 6 Gen 1 found in last year's model. This new processor is about 10–15% more powerful on the CPU side, as reported by NotebookCheck. The phone is to have 8 GB of RAM and 256 GB of internal storage, with support for microSD.
For cameras, the Xperia 10 VII is to have a 50MP main sensor and an 8MP secondary rear camera. The front camera remains at 8MP. The phone is to have a dedicated physical shutter button. The battery capacity is to stay at 5,000 mAh. The phone will run Android 15 out of the box and have a side-mounted fingerprint sensor, NFC, dual SIM support, and USB Type-C connectivity.
Launch details are not confirmed, but the launch date is rumored to be May 15, 2025. Availability in North America remains uncertain.

The PS5 Pro is $50 off in Sony's Days of Play sale
The Sony Days of Play sale is underway, and it includes the first official price cut for the PS5 Pro. The console has dropped by $50 to $650 in the US for the sale, which runs from May 28 to June 11. This is the first time Sony has discounted its Pro-level console. Retail partners like Amazon are matching the discount as well. If you don't have a PS5 already and can afford the Pro model, it's definitely the way to go to get the best PlayStation experience. It earned a score of 88 in our review, and it might have scored even higher if not for the price and the lack of a built-in disc drive. There are other discounts on consoles in the US and Canada as part of the sale. A bundle of either the standard PS5 or Digital Edition with a copy of Call of Duty: Black Ops 6 starts at $400/$510 CAD (for the Digital Edition). Sony says that will save you $120/$160 CAD compared with buying them separately. The PS5 standard and digital versions will be on sale in Europe and Asia too, starting at €400/£340/¥65,980. It's worth noting that Sony has considered raising the prices of PS5 hardware to offset the cost of tariffs. Microsoft this month jacked up the prices of Xbox consoles recently for that reason. So if you've been on the fence about getting a PS5 or PS5 Pro, now might be the time to snap one up. Elsewhere in the Days of Play sale, accessories are getting discounts. You can save on the PlayStation VR2 ($50 off), PlayStation VR2 and Horizon Call of the Mountain bundle ($50 off), Pulse Explore earbuds ($30 off), DualSense Edge controller ($30 off), PlayStation Access controller ($20 off) and the DualSense controller ($20 off). Things like PS5 console covers and external storage drives will get price cuts as well. You will, of course, be able to snap up PS5 games for fewer dollars than usual. MLB The Show 25 , the brilliant Astro Bot and Lego Horizon Adventures are among the many first-party games getting discounts. If you haven't played The Last of Us Part II and don't want to wait a year or two before finding out where the story of HBO's adaptation will go after that (somewhat unsatisfying) season finale on Sunday, you might like to snap up the remastered edition of the misery simulator, which will be included in the sale. Hundreds of other games will be featured. The list includes several Assassin's Creed titles, Grand Theft Auto V , Final Fantasy VII Remake and Rebirth , Indiana Jones and the Great Circle , Marvel's Spider-Man 2 and Balatro . On top of that, movies will be on sale through Sony Pictures Core Elsewhere, some PlayStation Plus plans are 33 percent off for new subscribers. Upgrading to the Extra or Premium tiers may cost you a third less than usual as well. That stinks for long-term PS Plus members who'd like to add another year or two (especially after recent price increases in several regions), but that's standard practice for plans such as these as companies try to boost subscriber numbers. Speaking of which, Sony is adding an extra few games to the PS Plus Game Catalog for Extra, Premium and Deluxe members. They are: Another Crab's Treasure (PS5, May 29) Skull and Bones (PS5, June 2) Destiny 2: Legacy Collection (PS5 and PS4, June 4) Grand Theft Auto III (PS5 and PS4, June 10) Another Crab's Treasure is a delightful Soulslike that was one of my favorite games of 2024. One of the best things about it is an accessibility option that gives you a giant pistol that can one-shot any enemy. Skull and Bones landed last year after years of delays and I'd say that "at no extra cost" is the best way to try it. Destiny 2: Legacy Collection includes hundreds of hours of gameplay with all of the expansions from the game's Light and Darkness Saga, except for the last chapter, The Final Shape . As it happens, the latest batch of monthly PS Plus games (which all PS Plus subscribers can claim and keep in their libraries as long as they maintain the membership) includes Destiny 2: The Final Shape , which will be available on May 30 for PS4 and PS5. The other titles, which you can claim starting on June 3, are NBA 2K25 (PS5 and PS4), last year's remake of Alone in the Dark (PS5) and the Jet Set Radio -esque Bomb Rush Cyberfunk (PS5 and PS4). That's a solid lineup! In addition, two bona fide all-timers are joining the Classics Catalog on June 5 for PS Plus Premium/Deluxe subscribers. Myst and its sequel Riven will be available to members on PS4 and PS5 at no extra cost. Premium/Deluxe subscribers will have access to two more game trials from May 28: Kingdom Come: Deliverance 2 (PS5) and Sid Meier's Civilization VII (PS5 and PS4). Update, May 28, 12:53PM ET: Sony pushed back the date that it's adding Destiny 2: The Final Shape to the PS Plus Monthly games list from May 28 to May 30. This story has been updated accordingly.

Exclusive: Viture is teasing next-gen XR glasses — here's what we know about them
Viture already knocked it out of the park with its Pro XR glasses, and now it's teasing a new set of XR glasses — and they aim to deliver big upgrades to shake up the smart specs space. The next-gen XR glasses from Viture will be the first to use Sony's latest Micro-OLED panels, offering a sharper, brighter and wider field of view than we've seen in AR glasses to date. What's more, the specs will arrive with 6DoF (six degrees of freedom) for expanded, more realistic movement in a 3D space. It isn't just one pair of XR glasses either; Viture looks to launch multiple specs that will be "perfect" for everyone, meaning we may see different styles as with the selection of Ray-Ban Meta smart glasses. We've seen how the Viture Pro XR glasses propelled AR to new heights with its impressive display tech, making it one of the best smart glasses you can get. But it's next pair are already looking to bring more to the table, bringing spatial computing into focus. Let's dive into what we know. Just from the teaser images, we know the next-gen Viture XR glasses will sport a similar lightweight and premium design as with its previous specs, but this time with multiple stylings. It will also feature a camera on its frame not unlike the Ray-Ban Meta glasses or Snap Spectacles. This should bring spatial computing more into the fray. With 6DoF, you're getting full rotational movement of your body in a virtual environment, so the glasses are able to track your location and full motion. We've seen this in the Apple Vision Pro, Meta Quest 3 and even other smart glasses like the Xreal Air 2 Ultra. Get instant access to breaking news, the hottest reviews, great deals and helpful tips. However, Viture is bringing this support to more compact, everyday eyewear, and combining this with Sony's latest Micro-OLED panels means these specs may deliver a fully immersive mixed reality environment with sharper visuals and a much wider field of view (potentially even a bigger 135-inch virtual screen than its Pro XR glasses). There's still a lot to learn about Viture's upcoming specs, including its official release date and price, but there are a few predictions we can make that may come to light. For one, the XR glasses will "offer everything similar products do, but with many unique features and refinements others can't match." Thanks to Viture's SpaceWalker allowing for a multi-display setup right in the lenses, it already touches on how it can handle spatial computing. That said, if the specs are set to bring "unique features and refinements," we could see support for Android XR but with unique apps from Viture itself. Or, Viture may be cooking up some of its own tech to compete with Google's XR OS. Of course, this is still up in the air, but judging by how well the company has successfully combined its own software with its hardware, it's not out of the realm of belief. We're sure to learn more about Viture's next-gen XR glasses soon, and we hope to see stronger audio and a better viewing angle, too. With smart glasses edging closer to its next generational leap, especially in a mixed reality space, we'll be keeping a close eye on these upcoming specs.
