Sony should build zoom lens and sell to other.
Since they do not seems able to make one.
Even samsung that has done before, as former camera maker.

$100 per periscope would be fair price.

    Sree, 25 Aug 2022Sony xperia mobile phones is a great product, but it is cos... moreDecreasing price by 25% forces them to sell 30% more units just to make same revenue in the end. This increases costs, since more units are made.

    Selling 1.000.000 devices at $1000 brings more money than selling 1.250.000 devices at $750.

        R, 25 Aug 2022Finally someone in a Sony comment section thinking the same... moreThere is no budget enouh for this. It is bizarre that people here are no able to understand this simple fact.
        Sony needs to sells phones for 2 years to make same money Samsung takes 1 month.

        Xiaomi , Oppo and Vivo make each 10-12x higher revenue, still none of their phones with android 12 will be getting android 16.

        People here demand 5 years, but every 12-16 months get new phone just because of SoC that is not even 4% better than previous.
        I wonder how many here keep phones for 5 years.

        By the way, my phone with older android is bug free and have same performance of early days, while my Apple device up do date is buggy and getting slower.

          Same old design with the same old glossy back I bet. Maybe some new colours.

                            I know a lot of people who wouldn't care about updates if the mid-range phones were correctly priced, but even the mid-range Samsung phone is now getting 5 years minimum of updates..
                            And expecting me to fork 1200/1400 for a new phone with only 3 years update promise (which was the answer to the question which many people asked and they reluctantly answered when the last Xperia phone came out)

SONY Must Bring Back Low, Mid and High end and also WALKMAN and Cybershoot name. In my country, Samsung is pushing low end for existency and Now SONY dont be so rude and arogant to survive.

                                  .last phone I bought from Sony was xz1 and got Samsung note 9 as a gift shortly after..
                                  Guess which phone just received a software/security update..
                                  Feel bad that I made 2 friends get the xz2 compact and the the other xz3.
                                  Unfortunately I'm not optimistic that anything will change about Sony's update policy :/

                                    Their Xperia 10 series(the more affordable ones)are way over priced for the hardware they have, and Xperia 1 IV is way too expensive for most people, even Sony fans.

                                      Really can't wait. If this releases before the Pixel 7 in the US (to which I'm not optimistic), I'm getting this for my wife for her upgrade.
