Price last checked: 10 Jul 2021. Confirm current price before buying.

Sony built the Xperia 1 around a tall, narrow 6.5-inch OLED screen running a proper 4K resolution at a 21:9 ratio, which makes it stand apart from the usual 20:9 flagships. Under the hood it's Snapdragon 855 paired with 6GB RAM and 128GB storage, still a capable combo for daily use and multitasking in 2024's secondhand or clearance market.

The camera setup is a triple 12MP array covering wide, telephoto (2x optical zoom), and ultrawide, all backed by 5-axis OIS on the main two lenses. Video shooting goes up to 4K HDR and even 1080p at 960fps for slow motion. Battery capacity sits at 3330 mAh with 18W fast charging over USB-C, and the phone carries IP65/IP68 water and dust resistance plus Gorilla Glass 6 on both sides.

Sony Xperia 1 price in Malaysia starts from RM2790. It comes in Black, Gray, Purple, and White, running Android 9 with an upgrade path to Android 10.
