          There is nothing I could add to this review. Perhaps a comment on the sound recording. Many, if not all, cams do not do enough in blocking/filtering spurious wind gusts. Wind noise could be so bad I think the phone is not worth its price even though the video could be great. Some reviewers resort to external mike connected via USB-C and there are some options available. Because Sony understands the utility of a reliable connection and offers a 3.5 mm audio/phone jack, my question is whether the external mike can be connected to the Sony's audio jack.

            Rknight93, 01 Feb 2024Why do masses buy Apple products pacifically iPhone 15 Pro ... moreIt's okay

              I have a 5yo Galaxy S9plus. For the last three or four upgrades I've been disappointed that Samsung didn't build in earphone jack. Every opportunity I get to comment online I mention the possibility of developing brain tumour/s from long term, high usage of Bluetooth earpods, which pull EMF waves into your head next to your brain. Scientific research is not yet conclusive. But I would not be at all surprised if smartphone manufacturers, in the future, are subjected to class actions because their products have caused brain tumours.
              So here, RIGHT NOW, is the smartphone I've been hanging out for the last several years!!! Earphone jack, stereo audio, expandable storage (my 3 deal makers) PLUS amazing camera! After having bought Samsung phones since 2006 I'm now switching to Sony to buy the Xperia I V.
              Thank you Sony!!! (even though you've pulled out of Australia).

                          The buyer for this phone does not want to shoot at 12mpx, it's simply not enough for a bigger screen. The buyer for this phone will also not replace his sony mirrorless camera with a phone, they want to replace their point and shoot which they will not be buying anyway because they never carry it with them. I returned my Sony because the shortcomings at this price are not excusable.
                          If the res issue alone did not exist I would not have returned it but I would also not mind if the sensor was a bit a bigger and if you let me put the back button on the right. I'm happy for those who like gestures, I don't.

                              A pro would never buy s23 ultra as they can just get Sony Xperia V and shoot raw.

                                    given their unsolved after sales support which has been very since the beginning of time, Sony should have given their customers a bit of consolation by lowering their price and not follow Apple's stupidity by removing charging brick in the box.
