Sony's camera pedigree shows up front and center here, with a 1.0-type main sensor that's rare on any phone at this price point, paired with Zeiss T* coated optics across all three rear lenses. The variable aperture (f/2.0 to f/4.0) on the main camera is a feature you won't find on rival flagships, giving more control over depth and exposure than typical smartphone cameras allow. Snapdragon 888 5G, 12GB RAM and 512GB of UFS 3.X storage handle the processing side, so there's no shortage of power to match the imaging hardware.
The 6.5-inch OLED panel runs at 4K resolution with a 120Hz refresh rate, unusual specs to combine, and its 21:9 ratio makes it well suited to video work alongside stills. Sony Xperia Pro-I price in Malaysia starts from RM3944, positioning it as a niche pick for buyers who prioritize camera control over mainstream features.
Battery capacity sits at 4500 mAh with 30W charging, modest by 2021 flagship standards, but the phone compensates with a 3.5mm headphone jack, 24-bit/192kHz audio support and IP65/IP68 water resistance. It's built for someone who wants a proper camera and audio tool in phone form, not just another slab optimized for screen time.
