TL;DR
- Sony’s claim that the Xperia 1 VIII is 8.3mm thick is reportedly incorrect.
- Sources say the phone measures 8.59mm thick in real life.
- It is possible that Sony measured the frame’s thickness and didn’t take into account the raised glass front and back.
It’s been almost a week since the Xperia 1 VIII launched, and the phone has already faced an AI camera controversy that just got worse with Sony’s response. It doesn’t seem like the company can catch a break, because yet another controversial problem has emerged — this time from the phone’s spec sheet.
