If we asked that question in year 2011 the answer would be a whole lot different then in 2014 right?
Okay then, what is a compact size phone for this age and era we're living right now in 2024?
Anyone?
Thanks.

The only reason to buy xperia 10 xx is the possibility of installing Sailfish OS from Jolla

I'm still up for this, on this weekend in my country there was 10% off from 10 VI preorder.
Usually once per month in my country certain electronic shop has 20% off campaign for everything, so would cost around 320 EUR instead of 399 EUR.

As an owner of Xperia 10 IV I'm pretty happy with that review - I plan to have a long road with my 10 IV, but if I had to choose now a new phone, definitely I would choose 10 VI.
Maybe SONY will make it more mainstream & next Xperias might be a little wider (69/70 mm), and still be very compact & easy to use with one hand.
The battery life of 10 VI is preety interesting, because it have worse times with gaming, video & calls, but better with web. Still great performance, but STILL worse than 10 V.
But when I look at 1 VI and this whole camera/video integrated app, that is not ready & SONY is planning final version of it "soon", than I assume, that maybe even software for 10 VI is not ready for new chipset in 10 VI.
I hope will se new series & I haave no clue which chipset will be in possible 10 VII, but if it will be the same Snap 6 gen 1, then I assume, that battery life will be better, because of +1 year of software optimization - 10 Iv & 10 V have the same chipset, but 10 V still have better battery life.

I had the same doubt, you can have a brand new 10 V for 280€ right now, the problem is that it is the international version (6GB / 128GB), the 8GB / 128 GB seems only available from the USA, so with postage to my country (Portugal), it would end up costing more than 400€... easy decision on this for me, I'd go for the 10VI, the only thing worse I think is the battery life (and maybe the 3rd camera, idk).

One irritating thing about Sony is that they limit the camera experience of their cheaper phones for no reason. I'd get that strategy if they were market leaders, but for a niche brand it'll just hurt their sales.

My 5iii I think was manufactured in Vietnam, no doubt with exploited child labor. There are many reasons I wait until my phone becomes unreliable, not just sluggish and certainly not just out of date before I buy new phones. My Seiko might actually be Japanese made.

And the phone still Chinese parts in it, just less of them.

[deleted post]I'm interested in this phone, but unfortunately I bet that of course the majority of its parts were made in China, despite Sony being a japanese brand... almost everything is made in China, these days.
