[Rumor]The next-generation model, Xperia 1 V, may return that nostalgic power button | Smartphone digest

Sony Mobile’s 2022 unreleased Xperia, the Xperia 5 IV and probably the new Xperia Pro.

Both are likely to be announced and released for a while, but this time we found some interesting leaks / rumors about the appearance of the “next generation” Xperia.

Do you miss this button?
Next-gen Xperia

That’s all there is to it, but there is an image of the round power button that was a trade mac of Xperia before the fingerprint authentication sensor was installed together.

Power button of the original Xperia Z?

In other words, if you receive it obedientlyThis round power button will be revived in the next generation XperiaThat is.
It’s rumor-level information, but this kind of story is always exciting.
(Although I personally loved the old Xperia’s round power button)

However, if this information is true, there are two main possibilities.

One is that the side-mounted fingerprint authentication and fingerprint authentication sensor has changed from the current pill type to a round type.And the possibility that it will be designed like the power button of the old Xperia.
However, if it is a protruding round shape like before, I think that unintended sensor malfunctions will increase, so I am wondering what will happen to that point.

the other one isThis button becomes a pure power button like the old Xperia, and the fingerprint sensor is moved to another place or abolishedThe possibility.
Actually, I think it is quite unlikely that the fingerprint sensor will be abolished, but it seems that there is a good chance that the fingerprint sensor will move to the bottom of the screen.

However, it is expected to be released from autumn to winter on the Xperia 1 IV brother machine,It is unlikely that such a design change will be made in the next flagship Xperia 5 IVSo even if it’s true that this type of power button is coming back, it’s just the next generation that will be implemented.Xperia 1 V and later modelsI think it will be.
