Sony Xperia 1 VI and 5 VI just tipped for a 'world's first' to prevent fake photos

The Sony Xperia 1 V in hand from the back.

 A recent rumor from a Japanese news website has stated that the Sony Xperia 1 VI and 5 VI will see a ‘world-first’ feature. The website has a history of being fairly accurate when it comes to reporting on Sony products. They claim that Sony is going to add a digital signature to images to tell if the content has been tampered with. 

Sony is well known for trying new things with each release of their Xperia model. For instance, the Xperia 1V has a dual-layer transistor pixel-stacked CMOS image sensor. It appears like the upcoming 1 VI and 5 VI may be no different. This coincides with Sony’s recent announcement that certain DSLR models will see a similar feature added via a software update. There is, however, no update on if the feature will make an appearance on other Xperia phones.
