S23 Ultra: poor calibration, low flickering frequency, useless curves, offensive hole.
4 things that ruin users experience. No surprise S series is going downhill.

I hope in 2024 sony cancels 10 and 5.
Only devices with 4K screen are necessary.
1 vi with 6,6" and Pro-i 2 with 6,9".
Custom resolution to make both 680ppi.

"Sony is yet to announce a North American release for the phone, which cuts out one of the most important markets – well-heeled consumers that have a limited selection of brands in their local stores"
If they do pull out, you can pretty much see the writing on the wall.
10 V isnt sold on the US, and leaving only the 1 V means they are pretty much giving up slowly...

Ferrari is for people who wanna be high class rich person.
Go buy Bugatti, Royal Royce, McLaren, Koenigsegg, Pagani, Lamborghini or even Rimac or Pininfarina if you can. Even the real rich people will think twice about buying those cars.

And that without need to change screen every year.
Forgot 5v scored 130h here?
Imx888 is most advanced tech currently. Go read how much this site liked photos. Better than what S26 Ultra will offer.
With 1/1.43" gives results of 1/1.12" ..
All that without using auto HDR like other.

If they give better software and update support it will be good but if not Samsung is the king. Forget about lag bug bloatware bla bla bla. They are tales. Using myself and know what I'm talking about. Mine isn't even a flagship.

a) Refurbished models are regularly available, and I've seen "good as new" ones with a 99% battery health guarantee for under £800.
b) Carrier deals are ubiquitous, and you can walk into Carphone Warehouse and get an entire 24-month contract on a 256GB S23 Ultra including airtime and unlimited data for about £1,000, not including a £150 trade-in discount. (The 512GB model is another £8/month, so about £200, atop this.)

I dont use headphones daily as i only use them when i travel to somewhere that takes over half a hour of time in something like public transport or something on the lines. But still i wont get Sony phones cause these are heavy with bezels that make the phones too large for me. 6.1 inch screen and 154mm tall while standard iphone and Galaxy S class is also 6.1 inch screen but are 146mm tall and dont also have 3.5mm jack but there can be used that dongle that is not something i would not like but would be forced to use. But then again i have Poco F5 that have the jack so i dont much care. Sadly there are no compact phones for past 5 years plus for budget to middle class so i was forced to get a bit larger phone then i had before even tough only 3mm was added to how tall the phone is while i went from 5.99 to 6.67 inch screen

Yes they have 3.5mm and sd. Beyond that they are consistently behind the comp in multiple areas like display, battery, camera, speakers, bugs, Carrier compatibility, releases, etc.
Sony saves millions compared to all other makers in hardware, software, marketing, release, Carrier availability, etc. Yet charge way more than everyone else.

Nothing new. They make nice phones that despite being nice are not just over priced but over priced and behind the competition in most ways.

Sony removed the telephoto camera and had already removed the charger. They also have terrible throttling problems and low quality displays. They are not "pro level"
