At the beginning of the year, Sony introduced not only the Sony Xperia 1 II, but also the Sony Xperia Pro smartphone. The latter is called a smartphone for professional bloggers, which can serve as an external screen for the camera.
Overall, the Sony Xperia Pro is similar to the Xperia 1 II, but it has a thicker body and sixteen 5G antennas. To transfer data from the camera to the smartphone, not only USB-C is provided, but also an HDMI port. The Sony Xperia Pro gets 512GB of flash storage versus 256GB for the Xperia 1 II. For the rest of the characteristics, smartphones are copies of each other.
The American store B&H Photo Video claims that the phone with 5G support will still go on sale in the US, but the store does not name the exact date of the start of sales. Those interested can subscribe to availability notifications and hope that the price of the device is not too high.
Considering that an unlocked Sony Xperia 1 II costs about $ 1,200 in the US, it is unlikely that the Xperia Pro with more storage and HDMI will cost less than $ 1,300.
