Users can enjoy more of what they want on the go with Xperia 10 III. It combines a powerful, long-life 4,500 mAh battery (25% more than it’s predecessor Xperia 10 II) with the speed of 5G for fast streaming and downloads – whether listening to near High-Resolution audio through headphones, thanks to DSSE Ultimate compatibility, or watching favourite movies on the crystal clear FHD+ OLED display. The Qualcomm® Snapdragon™ 690 5G Mobile Platform[vi] can easily handle apps, movies, games and more, with high performance and power efficiency for superior connectivity. Thanks to Smart connectivity, the Xperia 10 III takes Xperia’s deep learning technology that utilises Sony's Neural Network Libraries and analyses Wi-Fi signals to predict near-future connectivity issues.

The Xperia 10 III assesses the quality of available Wi-Fi before connecting so there is no more grabbing Wi-Fi that doesn't work. If it predicts any compromise in Wi-Fi connection quality, it uses mobile data instead.

Whether users are looking for a 5G mid-range handset, or want to incorporate the entertainment features of Xperia 10 III into their daily lifestyle, it offers a compact and attainable solution for the masses.

Xperia 10 III is available to pre-order[vii] now in Black, Blue and White from the Official Xperia Partner Store or Amazon. Handsets will be priced at £399 SIM-free. All customers who pre-order Xperia 10 III will be able to claim a pair of Sony WH-CH710N Noise Cancelling headphones worth £130.
