By ForGeeks Sony is preparing to officially unveil the Xperia 1 VII flagship as early as May 13. Ahead of the announcement, high-quality renders of the device have hit the web, showing off three color variants: black, green, and the returning purple. The smartphone looks almost identical to its predecessor and still uses the brand’s signature elongated form factor.
Focus on cameras: new Shirik and Periscope zoom

The display, as before, is branded as Bravia and has two auto-brightness sensors on the front and back.
