FULL STORY ======================================================================

Were less than a week away from the May 11 unveiling of the Sony Xperia 1 IV
, so its no surprise that Sony is ramping up its teasers for the phone, and that includes three short videos that hint at major features.

First up theres a video claiming that the Sony Xperia 1 IV has been built for content creators , with Pierre T. Lambert (a travel and adventure
photographer and YouTuber) claiming that the Xperia 1 IV feels as if you had
a big optical lens in your hand with a great camera.

They go on to say that it adds range, both in terms of focal length and creative possibilities. So aside from anything else that hints at a telephoto camera, and perhaps longer-range optical zoom than the 4.4x offered by the Sony Xperia 1 III .

Next up, theres a teaser highlighting the Sony Xperia 1 IVs music creation skills, with Ippei Haino (a Sony Music Labs A&R producer) proposing that what you record just as a memo could end up being professional quality or studio quality.

Its not clear exactly whats meant here, but perhaps the Sony Xperia 1 IV has high-quality microphones built in, or pro-grade audio editing tools.

Finally, theres a video advertising the phone at gamers, with Xifan Wu (a professional PUBG Mobile player) saying that they can livestream as they play sharing every move, without anything else. That likely means theres built-in streaming software.

We wouldnt be surprised if more videos land before launch too, but either way we should learn everything there is to know about the Sony Xperia 1 IV soon. Analysis: a real pro

The Sony Xperia 1 IV isnt expected to have Pro in the name (though
technically the name hasnt been revealed yet, so it could), but based on
these teasers its shaping up to be more of a pro handset than the likes of
the iPhone 13 Pro or the OnePlus 10 Pro .

It so far seems like Sony is aiming the Xperia 1 IV at creators and streamers more than casual users, given that content creation, music production and
game streaming have been highlighted.

Of course, that doesnt mean there wont be stuff for more casual users as
well, but this is expected to be a very expensive phone , so giving it genuinely pro-grade credentials could make sense, and could help it stand out from the crowd. Want to keep in touch? Sign up for TechRadar's daily newsletter
