This time, Sony brought together engineers from its α digital camera, Walkman digital music player, and BRAVIA TV divisions, harnessing advanced technology to create this major flagship of the year. The Xperia 1 VII doesn't just combine the brand's AI technology in digital imaging, high-quality audio, and display — it also introduces "Xperia Intelligence," developed specifically for Xperia, using real-time AI to enhance camera, audio, and display performance for an unprecedented smart experience.

In addition, the Sony Xperia 1 VII leads the evolution of smartphone video capture with two new innovative features, "AI Video" and "Auto Framing," letting users compose shots easily and precisely without having to constantly watch the screen, capturing stable, clear footage and greatly improving mobile creative convenience.



To match this, Japanese phone accessory giant DeFF specially designed the G10 Bumper high-density fiber protective frame for the Xperia 1 VII, offering a comfortable grip whether holding the phone vertically or shooting in landscape mode.

The DeFF CHRONO G10 protective frame is made primarily from G10 high-density fiberglass, carefully crafted using CNC precision machining. Milling just one G10 frame takes over 2 hours, with every step of the process rigorously controlled to ensure exceptional precision.

Some users may not be very familiar with G10 material, but this high-strength material is already widely used in military-grade products such as gun grips, slides, and knife handles, thanks to its extremely high strength and crack resistance, along with advantages like heat resistance, water resistance, chemical resistance, and high impact resistance.

In addition, G10 material does not interfere with data connectivity (4G, 5G), voice calls, wireless charging, NFC, or mobile payments, making it an ideal alternative to traditional aluminum alloy bumper frames. The QuickLock 2 (a new patent) also continues the previous generation's screwless latch design, making SIM/MicroSD card removal and replacement simpler and smoother without any additional tools, greatly improving convenience.

The packaging has been fully upgraded, using higher-quality materials and finer craftsmanship.
The G10 frame itself comes in a single color, Graphite Black.

Paired here with the Xperia 1 VII in Rolan Purple, the Graphite Black frame wraps around the body, offering excellent protection while showcasing a distinctive personal style.
An enlarged headphone jack cutout on top improves compatibility, ensuring support for all types of wired headphones on the market.
The USB port cutout has also been widened, ensuring compatibility with more types of charging and data cables, improving connectivity convenience and versatility.
The CHRONO G10 protective frame uses a two-piece structural design, using precision CNC cutting technology to minimize the gap between the upper and lower halves, achieving extreme precision and a secure fit.
In addition, this generation's volume buttons have been fine-tuned, offering a more comfortable click feedback compared to the previous generation for a more natural, intuitive feel. The subtle adjustment makes the click feedback more comfortable.
The camera shutter button features a fine, textured 3D pattern, cleverly echoing the tactile feel of the Xperia 1 VII's own buttons for a more stable feel and precise control.
The Xperia 1 VII's diamond-textured camera button design is one of its unique highlights, not only improving grip and slip resistance
The frame height is precision-engineered to sit higher than the camera module, so when the phone is laid flat, the lens surface is effectively protected from scratches, improving durability and safety.
The G10 protective frame is compatible with screen protectors from any brand on the market, offering complete protection and the best experience.
Forest Green pairs beautifully for a unique feel, understated yet rich with natural character. Whether combined with the Graphite Black frame or shown on its own, it conveys a refined, composed sense of aesthetics.
The side power button cutout is enlarged, ensuring smooth wake-up presses and fingerprint unlocking with no obstruction, for a more effortless operating experience.
The box includes a DuPont® Kevlar® bulletproof-grade fiber protective back panel, offering extra protection and toughness that users can mix and match freely.
The 3K woven fiber pattern offers a distinctive texture, showcasing fine craftsmanship and premium aesthetics.

The protective back panel uses an embedded fastening design, securely attaching to the protective frame to ensure durability and stability, resisting detachment for reliable, long-term protection.
