What this hardware actually means

Editorial interpretation generated from the device's self-reported fields and our SoC tier database. Cross-reference with the raw fields below; if you spot a contradiction, please tell us.

Platform & performance positioning

The docomo SO-01M is built around the Snapdragon 855, a current or recent flagship-tier SoC from Qualcomm. It launched in 2018 on a TSMC 7nm N7 process. 2019 flagship, mass-deployed in Galaxy S10, OnePlus 7, and the Pixel 4.

Usable in 2026 for messaging, social, and light games. Heavy AAA titles and modern AI features will show their age.

Day-to-day workload

6 GB LPDDR4X of RAM is adequate for mainstream daily use; modern games may benefit from closing background apps. Display resolution is 2520x1080.

This record reflects Android API level 30 (11). Android 10–11 — increasingly limited; expect some modern apps to refuse to install or downgrade features.

Trust & buying notes

If you're cross-checking a phone advertised as a docomo SO-01M, the fields most worth verifying are: Build.MANUFACTURER lowercase-equal to "sony"; Build.SOC_MODEL set (Android 12+) and consistent with Snapdragon 855. For an automated check, run our Hardware Trust Score from the DevCheck AI app and compare its output against this entry.

For a second-hand purchase, also verify the security patch date is no more than ~12 months old, the boot count is plausible for the claimed age, and battery health is above 85%.
