It appears that the filing was registered in late March 2026 and became available on April 13. Although there is no clear mention of the name of the device, it is believed to be the Xperia 1 VIII.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"e_e e_P\">\n<p>If this is the Xperia 1 VIII, it appears that Sony submitted its filing some time early this year. For comparison, the Xperia 1 VII&#8217;s filing became available on April 17, 2025. It is unknown whether this will have any impact on the launch date of Sony&#8217;s next flagship.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"e_e e_P\">\n<p>Unfortunately, the listing doesn&#8217;t offer much in terms of new details. The device is said to offer wireless charging, Wi-Fi 7 support, and 5G band support. There also appears to be several mentions of an earphone jack in the filing, so we can expect the return of the 3.5mm audio jack.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"e_e e_P\">\n<p>There&#8217;s a lot we still don&#8217;t know about the Xperia 1 VIII. However, as we get closer to the final launch, more details are sure to emerge. The Xperia 1 VII was announced on May 13, 2025, with a release in June. If Sony plans to follow the same schedule as last year, we may get an announcement in the coming weeks.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div data-container-type=\"content\">\n<div class=\"e_uc e_P\">\n<p>Thank you for being a part of our community.
