Headphones jack = freedom.

    At least people has stopped complained about Sony nomenclature here, as it's already Mark 5 or 5th iteration of Xperia numerals series since 2019 and has been settling this type of naming longer (2019-present, to 2023, that's 4 years of staying) than Xperia Z/M/C/E (2013-2015) or Xperia XZ/XA (2016-2018), and if you are familiar with Sony Alpha naming from the beginning, this should applied here too, no exception. Just a reminder if you want to complain about the naming convention again.

The lack of continuous optical zoom in Xperia 5 IV proofs Xperia 5 is towards/caters for who wants Sony but safer options, meanwhile 1 series is for all the latest cutting edge (4K, continuous optical zoom, etc.)

        Sony needs to distribute phones to North American carriers. They have zero visibility over here

            Yeah, just let it come!
            If they dont screw up the heat management like they did in gen 4 then I might swap my S22U for it.

                Why does 1 series exist? Why should one buy 1 instead of 5?

Leica authentic mode and Zeiss mode clearly demonstrates that the default mode of smartphones are absolute garbage. But people think it's "great"! Sony should stick to their less processed approach, in fact they should make it even less processed. Who cares what those people think anyway? Keep Sony free from such impurities.

Best phone I have ever had!! The signal is very excellent either you are in the big city or urban or abroad for that matter. WiFi signal best reception ever and it doesn't matter if you are home or at work. I can't wait to upgrade. I have been an Android user for 11 years and I'm thinking not to experiment with Apple not even a bit since it has no sdcard, 3.5mm jack, cant sideload apps, no custom rom support, pretty locked down phone.

PC's run flwawlessly with 8GB much heavier software than any app you will ever use in a phone. It is just an artificial blowing of specs to make phones look better in paper than their rivals.
