Anonymous, 27 Apr 2023The stick phone is back!Oh how original, an extra 1 ratio vertically and it's a stick phone. Okay. NGL, I don't get the hate. But you do you I guess.

Insulting, really. I'm sure you understand my frustration. That's the reason LG phones died, because of dumb reviewers like him, and if Sony stops making phones, you bet it's gonna be for the same dumb reason.

Look at xperia software and hardware...
Look at price...
Look at Sony selling stats...
Look at price again...
Laugh...
Oh, few years ago I was big fan of sony as they had nice desings, software was mixed bag but it was stable. But now.... Just stop.... seriously Sony, just stop as its not even funny now...

My question is, why don't you use your own one inch sensor? I hope they do it in this new xperia that comes in May!! and also, a better distribution, and more consistent prices, I'm not saying less than 1000 but at least 1,200 or something like that

I like tall screens. You don't. It's an opinion that you hold. It doesn't mean xperia's are bad, it just means you don't like tall screens, nothing more.

If they can severely reduce that, Xperia 1 V might just be my next phone. Sidenote, any guesses on how long it'll take Samsung to be "inspired" ?

Anonymous, 27 Apr 2023Are you implying 1 series sells more than 5? Do you have an... moreDude, you had to be joking if you implied Sony didn't give feature gaps inside the 1 series over the 5 series. It's already been that way since the original Xperia 1 and until the most recent. 0p} already stated the main points of what makes the 1 series different from the 5 series. I mean, why just recently has the 5 Series in the 5 IV gained wireless charging but lost the periscope lens, while the 1 Series in the 1 IV still has both features right now, even gaining a continuous zoom lens? How about Sony's slo-mo legacy, the 960 fps super slo-mo from the XZ Premium days? Only the original Xperia 1 has it. Or the overall design, where 1 series has gained a flat frame since 2020 and a textured shutter button since 2021, while 5 series only have the former in 5 IV? 16 GB of RAM / 512 GB of storage max in the 1 series, whereas 8 GB of RAM / 256 GB max in the 5 series? The only time 5 series had an advantage was 5 II, where it gained 120 Hz HRR earlier than 1 series (1 II settled for 90 Hz interpolation), but most of the time, features inside 5 series are less than 1 series, and the gap could be widened again this time. Especially if we see it from Samsung's perspective, the Xperia 1 is treated as their "Ultra" flagship, while the Xperia 5 is treated as their vanilla flagship, and of course, Sony will do everything to keep the 1 series ahead of the 5 series, just as Samsung did with their S23 Ultra and S23.
And the average selling price of the Xperia, also already mentioned by op} is now around $1000, meaning it is in the Xperia 1 pricing territory; hence, Sony is selling the Xperia 1 more in this regard, not the Xperia 5, let alone the 10 and Ace series. I'm not even mentioning the Pro series, a series above the 1 series and dedicated specifically to prosumers, where its ASP is above $1500 (Pro-I was $1800, Pro was $2500).

I’m worried about the rumoured cost cutting like we saw between the 10 III and 10 IV. Already no tof and rbg sensor according to that leaked 1 V image.

Reds, 27 Apr 2023It's just an opinion. I have the X1 and tbh it's ... moreProbably this
" Sony Semiconductor Solutions Corporation (“Sony”) has succeeded in developing the world’s first stacked CMOS image sensor technology with 2-Layer Transistor Pixel. Whereas conventional CMOS image sensors’ photodiodes and pixel transistors occupy the same substrate, Sony’s new technology separates photodiodes and pixel transistors on different substrate layers. This new architecture approximately doubles saturation signal level relative to conventional image sensors, widens dynamic range and reduces noise, thereby substantially improving imaging properties. The new technology’s pixel structure will enable pixels to maintain or improve their existing properties at not only current but also smaller pixel sizes.
A stacked CMOS image sensor adopts a stacked structure consisting of a pixel chip made up of back-illuminated pixels stacked atop a logic chip where signal processing circuits are formed. Within the pixel chip, photodiodes for converting light to electrical signals, and pixel transistors for controlling the signals are situated alongside each other on the same layer. Increasing saturation signal level within form-factor constraints plays an important role in realizing high image quality with wide dynamic range.
Sony’s new architecture is an advancement in stacked CMOS image sensor technology. Using its proprietary stacking technology, Sony packaged the photodiodes and pixel transistors on separate substrates stacked one atop the other.
In conventional stacked CMOS image sensors, by contrast, the photodiodes and pixel transistors sit alongside each other on the same substrate. The new stacking technology enables adoption of architectures that allow the photodiode and pixel transistor layers to each be optimized, thereby approximately doubling saturation signal level relative to conventional image sensors and, in turn, widening dynamic range.
Additionally, because pixel transistors other than transfer gates (TRG), including reset transistors (RST), select transistors (SEL) and amp transistors (AMP), occupy a photodiode-free layer, the amp transistors can be increased in size. By increasing amp transistor size, Sony succeeded in substantially reducing the noise to which nighttime and other dark-location images are prone.
The widened dynamic range and noise reduction available from this new technology will prevent underexposure and overexposure in settings with a combination of bright and dim illumination (e.g., backlit settings) and enable high-quality, low-noise images even in low-light (e.g., indoor, nighttime) settings.
Sony will contribute to the realization of increasingly high-quality imaging such as smartphone photographs with its 2-Layer Transistor Pixel technology."

I think Sony's Xperia 1 V will be announced.
Maybe, Ace, who exists in Japan, will exist somewhere in the world in 2023.
And maybe at the end of the year there will be a Pro-I II....
I only buy Japanese brand electrical appliances. I support Sony's Xperia from the beginning. Currently I have an Xperia 1 IV, but I'll be swapping it out for a 1 V.
