Both, but what I meant was Sony continuing their compact Japan only series, like they did last year with the Ace III Compact 5G.

    Downgrading it to iphone 15 level is bad idea.
    Even if price drops to $850 range, just gonna lose clients and money.
    Clients want smaller version of 1, same way 5ii was to 1ii.

    It would be better then to kill 5 and 10, just keeping 1 and Pro series and making flip phone.

      Anonymous, 24 Jul 2023Sony could offer zero years of updates and you'd still... moreI used android 7.1.1 until january/23.
      I have motorola (patch May/23, android 12).
      I do not care about having latest android.
      Zero utility to me.

      Bug free device is way more important.
      Updates made my ipad way worse comparedmto out of box firmware.

        ghenceaRO, 24 Jul 2023they don't give up that 21:9 ratio no matter what :)Well, what you gonna expect? After the tech communities forced Sony to drive out their standard 16:9 aspect ratio with XZ2 Premium being their last device to have 16:9 in order for the pursue of bezelless-ness and non-standard 18:9 to 19.5:9 ratio, which Sony adopted the former for their devices since then but only few devices adopted the latter (most of their 2018 devices, L3, Ace series), their only choice as multimedia company and has a division that delved into that area (Sony Pictures and other Sony multimedia sub-brands) in TVs (16:9) and cinemas (21:9) for decades, is by adopting 21:9 to keep everything standard and inline with their multimedia division these years.

          REDROBOT, 24 Jul 2023Frame design look like z1 compact Not quite, Z1 Compact had completely curved corners, this continues the flat line of the sides.

            By removing the telephoto they are stepping into the Pixel A\nothing phone zone where there are few Sony fans.

            If it will be not below 800euro it will have no sense

            Anyway, as an Xperia 5 III user I'm using a telephoto camera 2.9 for 50% of the time, I think there is no need to ultrawide while the main camera is already wide. After the III version, it is mainly downgraded.

                    justasmile, 24 Jul 2023And sure enough, its gonna come with 2 year software update... moreMore than enough.
                    Survey in USA shows most of iphone users do not keep phone more than 2,5 years.
                    USA is where iphone sells the most.
                    Giving 6 when ppl do not need. Waste of money.

                    Nobody would demand here if samsung was still giving 2.

                    I still havent received A13 (it is guaranteed to my device), no difference to me.

                      And sure enough, its gonna come with 2 year software updates and 3 years security updates. again.
