And it's also seemingly capacitive and not a 'real' button.

      The button's fine, even useful, but I really dislike the overly rounded corners, it just cuts into the display, makes the notification bar bigger and actual usable area of the screen smaller.

      Seems like it's either this or a sharp brick nowadays, can't wait for both of these to go away.

No ... moreGet Xiaomi out of that comment since with the ultra series from 12 they released a photography kit with a special button dedicated to the camera when you put the cover on! and that was 3 generations ago after their ultra! so in this case even if it was with a kit the idea is the same for the same functionality... now the others, Samsung, but they did it a long time ago, and the ones from other manufacturers that are never interested in this, I'm sure they now they will take it into account

                      They try to release it first so nobody going to claim they're copying 💀🤣

                        Me using Sony Xperia 1 II and Apple iPhone 13 Pro Max as daily drivers seeing this news: "well, this is getting interesting 👀"

                                Nobody gonna talk about how the Find X8 has the same shape as the iPhone?

If they have absolute banger cameras and great battery life I'm willing to use an iPhone 15 Pro Max copycat. It's like, a good design is a nice to have. I like looking at my phone from time to time, it feels nice.

                                  Also, the price you paid is like for the Chinese version right? And where did you even get it for that low? Either you got insane discounts or you're blatantly lying about getting it on launch. It launched at CNY5,999 for the 12/256 gb version. Which converts to ~750 euros or ~840 USD.

                                    I bet Xiaomi or Nubia is next.

                                        Sony: *does something*
                                        Apple few years later: *copies Sony*
                                        Literally every smartphone maker: *copies Apple*
                                        It isn't only about capture button, iOS 18 has some "new" features that Sony phones have had since at least 2017
