Anonymous, 09 Mar 2021The physic is we dont want flagship phone with 2200mhA batt... moreWell iphone 12 mini cost 800 euro and the just iphone 12 isnt that much larger phone and dont cost much more too.
And you dont need to make the compact phone 7mm thick to just have that 2200mAh battery in it. It can be 10mm thick and have something 3000-4000mAh battery in it.

And if you think that 12 mini dont sell well just cause of it's 2200mAh battery then your wrong. As all iphones have had small batteries. Iphone 12 have 2850mAh so it isnt that much better also

    NotAnOpinion, 09 Mar 2021Sony as a brand in Japan has lost so many loyal local consu... moreSony has to reconstruct it's business model. PS doesn't even reach a million units in Japan last year (If Im not mistaken)

    Most of the Japanese friends I know owns a switch. It clearly shows what the Japanese people wants and it's completely different from what the gamers around the world wants.

    It's just sad to see PS isn't doing that great in its home opposite on whats happening in other countries.

        1. Wait until there is a global shortage of decent compact phones
        2. Make one, people around the world start to get excited
        3. Release it only in Japan
        4. ???
        5. Profit?

          Shame 😣

            hmm, 09 Mar 2021Is there a reason that it must be 21:9 ? You should have asked Sony that when they did it the first time.

              Yeah no one loves large phones
              But still no one buys compact ones
              Iphone 12 mini that according to Gsmarena comments section would be the top 2020 phone

I cant say i have small hands. But i still want a compact phone just cause i dont play games or watch videos so the large screen makes no sense for me. Especially as i work behind screen at work and then when i am home i have desktop pc too to play games and watch videos.

                When i am out i want to be off from any screen. And large phones are not comfortable to carry around. I cant even tie my shoelaces when i have phone in my pants pocket cause it prevents me to bend forward or any type of bending. these big phones make you like a stormtrooper suit with what you cant remove your helmet or sat down

                    Yeah. No good replacement for XZ1 Compact.
                    I've decided that it's time to move on and bought S10e

                        Only xperia pro has vapor chamber ( also graphite and copper).

                        Lack of compact flagship = poor sales of XZ1c and XZ2c compared to XZ1 and XZ2P

                          Make sense for Japan only releases. At least some of them would still buy Sony phones. The rest of the world, the Sony “fans” are just talk, demanding this and that, but they all end up just buying cheap Xiaomi or Motorola phones, always complaining that Sony is too expensive. No wonder Sony is bleeding. Their fans are not real fans.

                            You can make phone small like iphone 5, with same chip A14.

                            Sony does not have a 5,2" 21:9 version of 5ii because they know it would not sell more than 50.000 units.

While yes the transistor sizes and every other smartphone component are much smaller the heat output has only grown. One of the agendas of pushing larger phone is the ability to have a bigger vapor chamber or thermal spreader big enough to keep the device cool.

                                    Hope they place to good low light cameras at the back. I really love this size fone where currently we are swarmed with huge fones. A compact with midrange affordable price is what we need. Even my girlfriend with small hands agrees.

                                      I dont see any problems how cant they make new compact phones under 135mm tall and under 70mm wide. Apple can do it with iphone 12 mini. Where is the physics in there or what is this physics your on about ? Never mind that they were able to do it 10 years ago and everything have gone smaller and smaller in 10 years.
