    Still recognizable as a Sony Xperia, but I am disappointed they ditched the 21:1 aspect ratio since last year. That was undoubtedly a Sony Xperia thing that made the phones stand out from the masses.

      laggdroids, 02 Apr 2025Wonder who even buys Sonys nowdays? Their design is so 2017... moreI don't think it's because they're lazy or lack innovation.

      Sony clearly has a disdainful attitude for modern design. Like a few minority here, they view top/bottom bezels as more superior over 'bezel-less' punch hole displays. I think it's a conscious design decision fueled by pride. They are proud of their design.

      But of course, they must've earned massive revenue, either from sales or from their parent company, to engage in this pride.

          Shamrock Sean, 02 Apr 2025It's nothing to do with Japanese government and no Jap... moreA tad lazy with their design? Fanboy much? Everyone smashed Samsung for S25 ultra design yet Sony with their 10 years old design from Xperia I to VII, I don't see any bashing. Talk about silly comments !

            laggdroids, 02 Apr 2025Wonder who even buys Sonys nowdays? Their design is so 2017... moreAnd you don't think other manufacturers haven't done exactly the same?? Seriously 🙄

              AntonelPAPI, 02 Apr 2025These Japanese have become lazy!! Why do they keep releasin... moreIt's nothing to do with Japanese government and no Japanese people are far from lazy. It's just Sony with their phones can you not see that?? Sony and Japanese in general have amazing technology but Sony have become a tad lazy with their designs. Can't say it's the Japanese are lazy because I can tell you they are some of the hardest working people on the planet. Do your research before making such silly comments

                Beautiful and classy as always.........Highest quality material and built but its so flawed and expensive that i cant defent it

                  What about Xperia 5 VII? Without it, the offer won't be as interesting. How much better will the camera be? Will it ever overtake Samsung, Apple Vivo?

                  If 5 VII appears, hopefully it offers exactly the same as 1 VIInot less and less things from the big version. Wha about world availability, in the EU and the US? Will it be with telecommunications company ?
                  Google Pixel is clearly cheaper and offers very nice/better photos.Pixels getting cheaper over time, it often goes on sale. Samsung, Huawei, Apple, Google offer phones and watches, but Sony has been doing nothing for years. Sony is disappearing in the smartphone market, people don't even remember that this company still exists.

                    These Japanese have become lazy!! Why do they keep releasing this almost-dead product? Does the Japanese government pay them some kind of patent or license fee? If they stop manufacturing this, they'll cut off their money supply?

                      Sony literally release the same phone every year yet get none of the criticism that Samsung get for doing the same. Their (very small, nowadays) fans are cult-like in their defence of them.

                        Wonder who even buys Sonys nowdays? Their design is so 2017 ish. Once an innovator, now just keep reproducing same out designed phones with that weird naming conventions.

                          Sony has best phones ever in terms of hardware and software 👍👍👍
