What to expect during the Sony Electronics press conference

Unlike other major IFA attendees, such as Samsung and LG, Sony rarely announces anything ahead of the show.

In previous years it mainly focused on headphones, a new flagship smartphone, along with the occasional smart speaker and action camera. We expect similar this year.
