I agree, those curved sides are nothing more than a nuisance... Flat is better, looks trendier too. Is this going to have a super powerful Tensor III or a Snapdragon 8 Gen 2 ? A powerful Tensor would be great! But if they don't change the camera, I won't be buying it. According to Adobe AI, we're still using the Pixel 3 XL camera!!

YUKI93, 17 Mar 2023I can't help but think that Sony missed the opportunit... morePhoto Pro has 3:2, 1:1, 16:9 and 4:3 for photos.
Sony is not going to develop new sensor. Sony electronics can easily just order a variant of any sensor available. Imx557 is variant of imx555. All cost of development came out of samsung pocket. Now just needs to ask for a copy of iphone's sensor (imx803) and done.
Xperia is much narrower, there is no space for periscope in the with the imx486. Guess why pro-i has 50mm cam instead.
Sony is not gonna put a 6mm cam bump like xiaomi and oppo to have 1" behind 24mm.
Pro-i uses 60% of it to avoid this.

TrainingAddict, 16 Mar 2023On a phone-sized screen, yes problem when you want to view ... more16:9 FHD only uses 2.08MP resolution. Even 16:9 4K only uses 8.3MP resolution, so it doesn't matter if you have something like a 27" 4K external monitor. They are still viewable. Only 16:9 8K needs a high 33.18MP resolution, but we don't have any 8K monitors to date.

Also, I can't see the need for Sony to develop a completely different 12MP sensor when the existing RX100 20.1MP sensor is already more than good enough. Just put a 24mm effective focal length, and job done.

That's kind of a stupid move. At least the bezels are thinner with a curved screen.
And judging from the renders the 8 Pro will have much thicker bezels.
I personally like it curved as swiping feels better, but I'm fine without it as long as the bezel is equally as thin (which it isn't).

YUKI93, 16 Mar 202312MP cameras can still produce better photo quality than 48... moreI am not comparing 12MP cameras with 48MP/108MP/200MP cameras, rather these 12MP and 48MP/108MP/200MP sensors are the same thing but different shooting mode. All I want to say is 12MP is not enough and the 48MP/108MP/200MP images are useless except those are from iPhone 14 Pro. I am not talking about image quality either. The problem is the 12MP sensors are in 4:3 format and these 4:3 images fit nowhere, NOWHERE! there is NO 3:2 shotting mode in any phone. if you want to shoot in 16:9 the image resolution decreases drastically. it's a mess. 3:2 20MP-24MP cameras should be the future.

Anonymous, 16 Mar 2023I agree, it looks like a Samsung from afar. I had a feeling... moreI feel the same
I'm currently using an S22 plus and the round corners sometimes really piss me off when they cut out content
In full screen, pictures are always cut out in the corners
Still, it's not as bad as the iPhone 14 pro max which i'm pretty sure has the most rounded corners out of any phone
I was gonna go for the S22 ultra just for this reason but a curved screen is even worse than round corners so i went for the plus

Xiaomi paid $128 for SD8+g1 last year.
Do the math. Considering all units of 7/7 pro and upcoming 7a. Maybe the tablet too.
Google can save easily over $600 millions.
Considering their phone business is small, that is huge money.

Everything about this is trash from the chipset which is a Tensor G3 aka Exynos which the S23 series didn't even use. The camera setup still looks ugly and the camera software on this trash is still not going to be an as good period. The only way this will be a good phone is if you can get it for free then maybe it's worth getting and that's the painful truth.🤡😊🙊

dbjungle, 16 Mar 2023Rounded corners are definitely a regression.Glad to see that somebody shares my opinion on this as well. What's so happy to see that pixel went for a squared off boxy design, and I was thinking to myself, what if they move away from that. Well, here we go

The moment you realize that Exynos s24 will perform worse than TSMC Snapdragon s23.
Google is the only one who doesn't realize.
