YUKI93, 14 Apr 2021Really looking forward to the 1 iii's battery life wit... moreMore like 3x & x4.4.... not too much gap.

I wonder how the AI Super Res works on the digital zoom up to 300mm. Image stacking? That 12mp telephoto is actually a Quad Bayer?

      You missed one hell of a feature "you can plug the phone directly to the charger and fully utilise the full power of the phone without draining the battery or put it to the heat stress as the phone draw power directly from the charger"
      An important one for gamers who constantly runs to the charger

        pufanu, 14 Apr 2021The smaller phone doesn't get wireless charging. Again... moreMagnetic adapters are the perfect balance between usbc chargers and inefficient wireless chargers.

            Ok this is a bit unprecedented. I didn't expect Sony to put variable periscope lens there. This is cool!

              The smaller phone doesn't get wireless charging. Again. I hate this petty practice.

                      All with too small screens. This useless aspect ratio requires at least 6.8 inches for fairly comfortable usage.

                        Really looking forward to the 1 iii's battery life with 4K 120Hz screen configuration. I also worried about the battery usage in general because of the report regarding heat problem in the Xiaomi Mi 11 and the OnePlus 9 Pro.

                        As for the 3x-5x zoom periscope telephoto camera, that is a neat touch. I like that a lot.
