The unannounced 2023 model new Xperia has passed FCC certification.
“PY7-38431P” was confirmed to pass certification this time.
As usual, very little spec information is available here.
However, when WiFi is not compatible with ax (Wi-Fi 6), models below the midrange,Not Xperia 1VIt is certain.
Also, since there are only two LTE bands certified in the United States, it is highly likely that it is a model for Japan.
By the way, the model with FCC ID “PY7-51629L” passed certification a few weeks ago as a mid-range/entry model of the 2023 version.
If all goes well, the next Xperia 10 series model, Xperia 10 IV, will be equipped with Snapdragon 6 Gen1, and if so, it should also support Wi-Fi 6 (802.11ax), but this “PY7-51629L” Also not compatible with Wi-Fi 6.
Therefore, I told you that this model is likely to be the entry model Xperia ACE IV.
However,The “PY7-38431P” this time is also not compatible with Wi-Fi 6, so there are two new midrange/entry Xperia models with older or lower-spec chipsets than SD6Gen1.There is also a possibility that it will be.
Alternatively, although these two are Xperia ACE IV models, there are two versions (for example, one for carriers and one for SIM-free), and it seems possible that they will pass certification with different FCC IDs.
