Anonymous, 19 May 2021Gorilla Glass 6, IP68, 4500mAh for $150? Keep dreaming. N... moreexactly... the priority of this phone is different... i even think the phone display will last longer than other xperia, being the only ips released this year... and for ip certification at this level, it is neat... japanese people does not worry getting wet... i mean the phone getting wet...
might consider to import it (that is if it is unlocked) but the notch says "no, tch!"

    Wish more manufacturers could adopt this more compact form factor. 6 inch or less is pocket friendly. Sony should have used Helio G70/G80 chipset instead but congratulations for not following the sheep with huge 6.5 inch screens.

          kek, 19 May 2021I just want to remind everyone that this "Ace 2" ... moreThis is exactly the same phone. Told to be 5,5" and 14cm tall.
          Notch, dual rear camera, bottom speaker.

          5iii is not listed at docomo because phone is gonna be sold just in late august.
          The assembling of 5iii did not start yet.

          People should move on. There is not gonna be any successor for XZ2C.

          Nobody but Apple is gonna make phone smaller than 14cm.

              ILS, 19 May 2021100% agree. Although it has crappy specs. I really hope it ... moreMan Samsung A20e is small size and is a lot better deviceeven if is 2 years old.
              Even Iphone 5s or SE is far better than this. And thats several years old device.
              SE2 by Apple too.
              Ulefone Armor X7 Pro cost just 100 bucks and is far more better in every aspect.

                  REDROBOT, 19 May 2021which company give IP68 water & dust proofing, Gorilla ... moreMan GG6 and IP68 just made this phone a lot overpriced.
                  From sites like wish or alliexpress anyone can buy waterproof case and a 5D screen protectorboth would cost maybe 5 and will do the same. Give screen protection and a water resistance. Paying 200 for this is like watching 8K movie on a 5 inch screen phone. Its completely stupid idea what Sony did.
                  But i do understand than 90% people are lazy to pay 5 bucks for a waterproof case and a quality screen protector they rather pay 100 more for GG6 and IP68.

                        I love the specs on this phone, 4GB, 64GB , microsd support and best of all a 5.5 screen, damn! Wait, did I say best of all? Wait it is a "Sony" and it costs $202, good GOD, that's delicious, now all they need is a less generic design, "Nokia 5.4" anyone, wink wink

                          Good job Sony, a $200 phone with a 3 year old chipset. No wonder no one buys your phones.

                              Bad front cam location.... China phone
                              Cheap look

                                I've always been a big fan of smaller phones that can easily fit in your pocket and you can operate them with one hand. Looks great as a second phone for trips, but it's overpriced and the camera specs are kind of old. To me, it should be priced around $130-150 max.

                                  That is a monster of a chin. This is 2021 even budget phones like OP Nord barely have chins anymore.

                                    I just want to remind everyone that this "Ace 2" is different from the renders we saw from that one Compact rumored device.

                                    The side buttons are different, and so is the screen design & body design.
                                    Also as a quick note, Xperia 5III was not released in Japan, so that means Sony will throw something new on August. This aligns with the previous rumor of the return of the Ultra line and that more devices were in the pipeline.

                                    If anything, this Ace 2 is the new L series.

                                        would be interested in this had it sported a decent cam (24mp+) and 1080 screen. doesn't say whether it will have a 3.5mm, that would be required also.
