  • An image of what’s believed to be the Xperia 1 V has leaked online.
  • Sony’s next flagship phone appears to lose the ToF camera and the RGB IR sensor.
  • The Xperia 1 V could be announced at MWC Barcelona 2023.

Unlike Samsung or Google, Sony has done a pretty good job at keeping images of its next flagship phone from leaking. However, nothing lasts forever and it looks like we finally got our first look at the device.

A new leak from Weibo user Zackbuks has provided us with what appears to be an image of Sony’s Xperia 1 V. The image isn’t much — just a close-up of the back of the handset — but it gives us some information we didn’t have before.
