The latest " Xperia " model " Xperia 1 V (Xperia One Mark Five )" announced by "Sony" on May 11, 2023 (Thursday) is the first model in the world to be equipped with the CMOS image sensor "Exmor T for mobile". The world's first CMOS image sensor "Exmor T for mobile" has become a hot topic. Sony Store Fukuoka Tenjin held the "Xperia 1 V Touch & Try Event" where you can actually experience the latest Xperia model "Xperia 1 V" at Sony Stores nationwide!

Visit the Sony Store in Fukuoka!
I went to the Sony Store in Fukuoka, located in Chuo-ku, Fukuoka City. At the entrance, there is a sign that says "Xperia 1 V Touch & Try Event"!
Xperia
When you enter the store, you will be greeted by the "Xperia 1 V" right at the entrance. Three colors, "Black", "Platinum Silver" and "Khaki Green" were on display.

This is the flagship model of Xperia. We quickly took it in our hands to experience its operability!

The back of the device has a textured finish and a stylish design. It is tactile, non-slip, and easy to hold.
The camera is equipped with three types of lenses: a 16mm ultra wide-angle lens, a 24mm wide-angle lens, and an 85-125mm telephoto lens. Of course, the lenses are ZEISS T* (Teastar).
The "Xperia 1 V" was also disassembled and exhibited. We can usually see the finished product, but it is rare to see the disassembled parts. Observe the internal structure of the battery, speaker parts, etc!
I actually viewed the "Xperia 1 V" with a Sony "WH-1000XM5" wireless noise canceling stereo headset. The sound is smooth and very clear. Once you experience this sound, the "Xperia 1 V" is the only smartphone you will ever need!
Comparison experience corner
At the venue, there was a hands-on corner where visitors could compare speakers and displays with previous models. In each corner, visitors could compare the performance of the latest model "Xperia 1 V" with that of "Xperia 1 II" released in 2020.
Speaker Comparison Experience
To experience the difference, we put our heads in the box to compare the sound of the two speakers. The difference is obvious. The Xperia 1 V speakers have a clearer sound than the Xperia 1 V speakers.
Display Comparison Experience
Next, we compared the displays. The same video was played and compared, but the Xperia 1 V output image was overwhelmingly cleaner and brighter. Even in the dark areas of the video, I was able to see clearly without reflections.
Photo and Video Shooting Experience Corner
Xperia 1 V" is equipped with the next-generation "Exmor T for mobile" sensor, but we were also interested in its photo shooting capabilities. At the event, visitors were able to actually use the "Xperia 1 V" to experience photo and video shooting. There were also dog and cat figurines and flowers as models, so you could experience the performance of the camera using a variety of subjects.
At the event, if you added Sony Store as a friend on LINE, you could get Xperia goods! This is a great opportunity for Sony fans.
