      Anonymous, 14 May 2024Nobody is going to buy just because it is 19,5:9 over 21:9 ... moreIf they aren't useful, why do all phones have aspect ratios that don't include 16:9 and 21:9?
      Because they are the extremes, 16:9 is too wide and 21:9 is too narrow. Aspect ratios in between are better.

        This will either sell better or crash hard as the XZ2/XZ3 did.

        If 1 VI has FHD screen, it means 5 VI doesnt exists. And seeing how 10 VI seems to have gained the same sensor approach, might as well cut it and save their loses.

          Anonymous, 14 May 2024Those bezels allow them to use FRONT FIRING SPEAKERS as wel... moreAll flagship phones have front firing speakers, you can choose between black bezel around the selfie camera and a punch hole through phone settings and since you can hide the notch there is no need for under-display selfie camera.

            I'm just disappointed in Xperia 10 VI. I would prefer to see there 1 main wide camera of the same quality as 1 VI, and a processor of at least SD 7 gen 3, and I would be ready to buy it for 500$.

            (and screen aspect ratio of 21:9 or 16:9, not this weird, that is trending)

              Red one is the best looking phone out there, only if it had full metal construction!

                I miss green color of III generation

                        I know this isn't the focus of the article, but that (blood) red color is AMAZING!

                        I wish more brands do phones in more colors without making then exclusive to this or that market. It's always the same annoying options among black, not-so-black, almost black, almost grey, grey but not so much, grey lite, white and gold. Sometimes blue or dark blue, or that yellow Poco used and only a few liked.

                        Tecno and Infinix tries, but are already trapped in the same silver/black/white/sometimes blue/sometimes green with golden details.

                        Samsung had nice options back in the days of S9 and S10 series, even S20 had a few more "unconventional" options.

                          Stranno, 14 May 2024Bezels look insane.Those bezels allow them to use FRONT FIRING SPEAKERS as well as not putting the front camera under the screen ( expensive/crap quality) or damaging the screen with notches and holes.

                            In one single package.

                              We will finally know tomorrow and we hope to quickly test GSM Arenam
                              It's great if there is only 1 photo and video application left!
                              I sincerely hope that this red color will not only be available in Japan (My 1 V is khaki green so I want the 1 VI in red at best if not white).
                              The 5 VI would probably be canceled like the Pro.
