First Sony Xperia 1 III renders show a periscope camera, slimmer bezels

28 January 2021
The design is otherwise unchanged - all flat sides and 90° angles. Sony will keep the 3.5 mm jack and microSD slot that we enjoyed on the Mark II.

Ive been using Sony phone since 2013, first the xperia t, and still use the xperia Z5 premium (writing the comment on this phone as well)
A huge fan of sony phones. Im planning to buy the xperia 1 mark 3. I would really love to see a bigger battery (4500 at least and amazing if 5000 mamp) and 30 watts fast charge will be amazing too but not more than that.

    Are you flipping on your own words like a pancake?

      Blame Sony for cheapening out on giving big capacity battery and low capacity fast charging.

        Nick Tegrataker, 31 Jan 2021Note 20 Ultra has a significantly larger display as well.True. Note has total footprint of 18.3" (minus whatever the notch) compared to 15.6" on Sony

                  [deleted post]Are you seriously comparing FHD screens with a panel that has more than two times the pixels? Fine, S20 in 1080p 120Mhz mode gets less than 90hrs. So there you go. S21 Ultra is a new generation device and has new generation display, let's wait and see what 1III brings to the table. But if we compare 1II with it's generation such as S20, S20 Note and X2 Pro you can see how much refresh rate eats up the battery especially sine 1II has more pixels to light up

                    [deleted post]No wonder Sony can't even sell 1 million units of their flagship phone.
                    This company will soon follow LG into non existence

Besides OP 8 there is no single QHD HRR device that gets 100 hours of battery life. Note 20 Ultra is the closest thing to Xperia 1II and that thing is no better besides 500mAh more juice.

                          Anonymous, 30 Jan 2021HRR display eats up battery a lot more than high resolution.Not really. They both have an impact on battery life to the similar extent.

                            Anonymous, 30 Jan 2021HRR display eats up battery a lot more than high resolution.Tell that to several HRR phones which scored above 100hr endurance in Gsmarena endurance ratings while your Sony 4K screen managed only 83hr.

                              Anonymous, 30 Jan 20214k on a phone is nothing but a battery hogging gimmick You have no idea, thats why you are saying this. The article is just trashing. The 4k resolution is not applied every second. Depends on the picture or video displaying at the moment. Sony has the best battery management in the market due to its included software. The designing its a matter of preference. It adopts an industrious design with touches of elegance that polishes its roughness. Same as iphone and now samsung design language. Their cameras have not any beautifying elements and try to offer what you actually see. Again a matter of preference, because it is supposedly used by a camera fan.

                                I have Sony Xperia Z5 and it was really disaster for Sony. Sometimes I want to smash that Sony Xperia Z5.
                                I don't know why Sony has released such as dumb phone in the market. The Sony doesn't look at what Korean companies are doing. The Sony was left behind Chinese and Korean Companies.

                                      Back in the days when sony... Nokia were on top the designs were quite similar and I love it too when the look become simple but inside it which is the main catch... A good display battery performance... Powerful chipset.... But sony do not put your bloatware which was always present on your devices.... If you keep that aside... I will sure buy one.

                                        AverageIndianUser, 29 Jan 2021But it's it dual sim+sd card slot or hybrid.... Hate hybridStill better than Samsung that dropped the MicroSD slot ... And some will like the fact that Jack is present ;) (Not me, I don't really care about that, but hey, let's offer the choice to user ;))
