Bread, 09 Sep 2023Why would you need an expandable slot nowadays... Storage, portability, modularity, flexibility, more options...
There is no good argument from the consumer standpoint for excluding such a basic feature. It is PURELY an anti-consumer move to get you to purchase their cloud-based storage solutions. Same reason they get rid of the 3.5mm jack.

Bread, 09 Sep 2023Why would you need an expandable slot nowadays... Because we want ALL THE STORAGE. On a side note, it pisses me off that the only colour that has 512Gb is black, I mean come on man I would love to have a red model with 512Gb, but nope 256Gb only.

sunnyboyo, 07 Sep 2023The lack of expandable storage is such a massive disappoint... moreSony phones are by far more expensive than ASUS.
I like compact phones and my current phone is a refurbished Sony Xperia XZ1 Compact, I find the screen quality to not be great so while I was searching for a new phone the decision was between the Zenfone 10 vs the Sony Xperia 5 V, but the latter is very expensive, is taller than the Zenfone and indeed you get the microSD, but I went for the Zenfone, still in the process of setting it up.

The lack of expandable storage is such a massive disappointment here, this would've been a nearly perfect compact phone otherwise. Also quite overpriced as most new phones are.

I personally like Sony for the close to stock Android experience, better sound quality, headphone jack, battery life, no notch and overall aesthetics. But S23 is also a good choice which will get more years of android version updates.

you guys recommend buying the S23 or sony 5 IV? Both compact and can be rooted.
As much as I wanted to grab the Zenfone 10 - no unlocking the bootloader I would have to skip it unfortunately

Mr. Anonymous, 01 Sep 2023The 5v review shows that it throttles a lot though.Yeah, just read the review. Honestly, I'm a bit disappointed. I'm not too worried about the chipset, but, overall, it's not a great value for money proposition for me.

AnonD-1114487, 31 Aug 2023Correction: "With the 5 IV.." Even SD Gen 2 Trotthles alot GSMARENA makes that clear... still ditching the telephoto lens and remaining €999 price tag is a big mistake. They will lose now alot of customers to the Asus Zenfone 10..

I'm really sick of seeing all these massive phones with an ugly notch or hole on the display. Plus, I need the headphone jack. I will be getting the 5 V. With the 5 V, it was the processor that caused the heating. Pretty much every phone with the 8 gen 1 chip had heating issues. With the 8 gen 2, it shouldn't be a problem. I'm not too worried about them removing the telephoto lens, but it would have been nice to have the LED notification and I hope they offer a bit more software updates.
Having used the Pixel 3a for four years, I wanted to buy a Pixel again, but because they put their own chip (which sucks) and no headphone jack either, I decided to ditch it. I'll be getting the 5 V. Hope it works well ✌🏻
Thank you for your inputs. :)

AnonD-1114487, 17 Aug 2023I am considering buying a Xperia - most likely the 5 V when... moreI use the Xperia 5 IV for quite some time now... and yes in the beginning it heated up sometimes. Especially when using the videocam. But now i iam totally heating free. They have been resolved since the last 2 patches. Really people like to complain alot about Sony. Most of the time because of their software support or because of their processors what is not Sony's fault. They make excellent products and the 5 IV has litterly every box checked. 5000mAh, 3.5mm jack, Micro SD slot that is toolles, E-sim, Good camera's, excellent screen, Wireless Charging, Notification LED, IP68/IP65, SDGen1 processor, GG Victus protection, Small form factor
Trust me its good, but just install the latest firmware update. I have even bought two of them because i will never ever find a phone again that is so complete package.

Anonymous, 28 Aug 2023MKBHD Bust Of The Year 2023 Candidate. Feeling humble, A-SUS? I think you're confused. MKBHD is giving this the compact PHONE OF THE YEAR award. The S23 was a bust. (But maybe that video was a joke? idk.)
