Sony should push 5iv to QHD, then make a 10 iv Plus with SD750, 6.5" , 5000mAh. All rest equal to 10iv

At least Sony keeps pushing along even if hardly anybody buys their phones.
Among the many brands I've owned, I actually never owned a Sony smartphone before. I did own a Sony Ericsson T616 (AKA T610). That was my first camera phone but it wasn't a smartphone. I'm dying to get a Xperia since Sony already gets most of my money from PlayStation and Spider-Man.

And it should be revived by using a Dimensity 700 or 720 to be a budget 5G phone.

But why its name is 1? It comes from One Sony. All electronics (except PlayStation) are same division now. Many people now work on different devices instead of having teams for each electronics.

Isn't t... moreExactly. After Apple and Samsung, I find Sony naming scheme the least confusing. And they are already at their 4th generation.
Xiaomi or Realme naming are far more illogical to me. I mean Xiaomi 11 Lite 5G NE is pretty logical, lol.
But probably people will always have something to complain in Sony, Apple and Samsung posts.

How is it possible that 6.1 inch xperia 5 mark III has 4500mah battery and 3.5mm jack, while 6.1 inch galaxy s22 without 3.5mm jack only 3700mah? What happened to Samsung?

Whole thing is not just 20fps. It is doing 20fps while adjusting focus and exposure 3x per frame.
The higher is the resolution, the harder is to do it. Rx100 7, A1 and A9 can do it, but because the have DRAM.
Rx100 7 cant adjust focus that much.
This tech has some penalties like higher crosstalk and some DR sacrifice.
See A9 x A7iii .. The A7iii lacks the dram, but has better high iso performance and 1 E.V more of DR.
One prototype of 1 iv has imx789 and 766 , like one plus 9 pro.

I hope the TSMC rumor is right (considering it makes all the sense in the world for Sony) but I'm hoping the camera isn't. But that my 1 iii doesn't take good pictures but quad 20MP sensors with an Alpha-designed custom ISP to keep the 20fps burst shots would be better for them. I guess it's to keep the sensor size down...
