Sony Xperia 10 VII: The midrange marvel Indians can only admire from afar

Sony has unveiled the Xperia 10 VII with a Pixel-like camera bar, Qualcomm Snapdragon 6 Gen 3 chip, dual rear cameras, and Android 15, but it won't be launching in India

Japanese consumer electronics maker Sony is expanding its Xperia 10 series with the launch of the Sony Xperia 10 VII in Japan, Europe, and the UK. Sony hasn’t released any smartphones in India for a long time, hence, it is unlikely that the Xperia 10 VII will be launched in India. With the release of the Xperia 10 VII, it appears that Sony has taken a page from Pixel’s notebook, as the former’s camera module strikes a great resemblance to what we see in the Google Pixel 9 and 10 series.

 

For the uninitiated, Sony announced its exit from the Indian smartphone market back in 2019. As per reports, this was done to prevent further losses and also due to not being able to capture the Indian smartphone market. Since 2019, Sony has not released any smartphone in India.
