To give a quick recap on the Sony Xperia 1 VII, the three main upgrades in the hardware department happens to be the following:
- A new ultrawide camera with a 48MP sensor at f/2.0, which has a 16mm focal length
- Brighter Xperia Display with Sunlight Vision
- Powered by the newer Snapdragon 8 Elite Processor and now with 4 years of major OS upgrades and 6 years of security upgrades

Apart from that, most of the experience and hardware happen to be the same, if not similar to the Sony Xperia 1 VI, which isn’t a bad thing after all. At the time of writing, Sony Malaysia has announced that the phone is now available for purchase through their Official Stores and authorised channels for RM 6,499. If you happen to get the phone by 5th October 2025, you are eligible for a Sony WH-1000XM6 worth RM 2,099 for free. Which means, the phone is really RM 4,400. Girlmath.
