We already know that Sony is cooking up a couple of tall phones for MWC 2019, but now we're getting a look at another upcoming Xperia device.
A new render that shows the Sony Xperia 1 has leaked out, courtesy of Evan Blass. The device looks to have a tall screen of its own (which could be a 4K HDR OLED panel), and we can see a triple rear camera setup around back as well as volume, power, and camera buttons as well as a fingerprint reader on the side. The phone itself is clad in a royal purple color that looks pretty attractive.

Blass followed up this Xperia 1 leak with renders that give us another look at the Xperia 10 and Xperia 10 Plus. Once again, we can see their tall 21:9 screens, side-mounted fingerprint readers, and dual rear camera setups.
Sony recently teased its MWC 2019 event with the phrase "Embrace a new perspective" and a video that appears to show a 21:9 panel, hinting that it will indeed use extra tall screens on its new Xperia smartphones. We've seen lots of phones with 18:9 and 19.5:9 displays lately, but the 21:9 screens on these Xperia phones will be different, and we're interested in seeing what it's like to use Android on such a tall screen.
Sony's event is happening February 25th, so stay tuned.
