About Sony Xperia 1 IV 5G
The Sony Xperia 1 IV 5G presents a sleek, tall form factor measuring 71 mm wide, 165 mm tall and just 8.2 mm thick, weighing in at a modest 185 grams. Its front is dominated by a 6.5‑inch AMOLED panel that delivers an impressive 1644 by 3840 pixel resolution, offering sharp detail and vibrant colours for media consumption and productivity alike. The device supports a single SIM slot, keeping the design streamlined while still providing 5G connectivity for fast mobile data.
Under the hood, the phone runs Google Android 12 out of the box and is equipped with a generous 16 GiB of RAM, ensuring smooth multitasking and responsive performance across apps and games. Powering the experience is a 5000 mAh battery, aimed at delivering endurance through a full day of use. Together, these specifications position the Xperia 1 IV 5G as a high‑end option that combines a premium display with substantial memory and battery capacity.
Compared with the base Sony Xperia 1 IV 5G, this model steps down to 12 GiB of RAM and is a touch heavier at 187 g, while keeping the same 6.5‑inch AMOLED panel, 5000 mAh battery and overall dimensions.
It is sold exclusively in Japan as an Ultra‑Wideband (UW) carrier variant, model XQ‑CT24 A201SO, with 256 GB of storage and a single SIM slot. This sets it apart from the North‑American 512 GB version and the Japanese 512 GB model, which offer more storage and, in the latter case, higher RAM.
Among the Japanese offerings, it shares the 256 GB capacity and UW support with the XQ‑CT04 SO‑51C model, but unlike that dual‑SIM device it retains a single SIM configuration, distinguishing it by both its carrier‑specific model number and its SIM layout.
