Weaknesses

Sony Xperia 10 VI

The Sony Xperia 10 Mark 6 is a compact mid-range phone that doesn't break new ground, but rather offers a generational refresh to the series. The most notable changes include a new chipset and a reduction in camera count from three to two. Design-wise, it's similar to its predecessor, with a lightweight and relatively tall and thin body. The display is a 6.1-inch OLED panel with a 1080p resolution, 21:9 aspect ratio, and Gorilla Glass Victus protection. While it looks decent, it suffers from a strong color shift and maintains the same 60Hz refresh rate as before. The speakers, however, have improved in terms of volume and sound quality. The phone runs on Android 14 with some custom Sony features, such as multi-window mode and s sense, which allows for quick access to apps and features through a handle on the side of the screen. A notable upgrade is the ability to record 4K video using the main camera, but the quality still suffers from an overly contrasty look. The camera setup has been trimmed down, with a 48MP main cam and an 8MP Ultra-wide, but lacks features like manual mode and PR mode. Photos taken in good lighting are contrasty, while those in low light are more detailed and accurate in terms of color representation. Overall, the Xperia 10 Mark 6 is a solid mid-ranger with a unique compact form factor, commendable battery life, and improved software support. However, its display's strong color shift and 60Hz refresh rate may be a drawback for some users.
