    117, 13 Jun 2020@Kfav82 hello mate how is the new phone going I have been u... moreEvening, yeah so far so good. I have got used to the height now in fact my x compact screen is tiny in comparison. The quality of the screen is fantastic. When you get the phone search on YouTube for 4k 21:9 videos and it's like watching your flatscreen TV in your hand. Battery on 56% was charged 13 hours ago and have got screen time of 3 hours 40 and was using playing music for over half an hour so can't complain about the battery at all. The speaker is absolutely fine that's the only thing I was worried about. Mobile speakers are never great anyway but it's certainly loud enough. Sony have removed the equaliser and clear bass settings from the music player. If you download Sony music centre from the play store that player has them if it's something you used in the past. To be honest I have played the same song on both players via wired headphones and there isn't that much difference.
    As for O2, they got a bit protective on that forum saying I should have waited but if you look at Virgin and Vodafone the speaker/headphone deals are only on contract at inflated contract prices. Even the 1 II on O2 deal is only on contract and it's not currently offered on PAYG. I have a good deal O2 sim so just wanted a handset. If you order from giffgaff you have to buy a goodybag sim. I chose the £10 one. Once you get it don't activate it at all. I then removed my payment details from my giffgaff account page and that's it, the payment won't renew each month. If you Google buying a giff gaff handset it points you to their forums where their own staff even explain it in detail. It's next day delivery for free which my phone arrived at 930am

            Unfortunatelly in my case its look like software problem.
            I dont use cover or nothing else.
            I try fix software option, wipe, install another camera app, turn on phone in safe mode and results are practcally the same (video recorded in safe mode were a little bit louder).
            I make service tests and both mic works properly. When i make voice call on loudspeaker or making voice record its loud and clear. Problem appear only in videos (and i cannot pass the microphone and speaker test in technicall support app (on a board).
            I wrote to sony and they said to me only to make a fix option in Xperia companion.. I wrote that i done this firstly and nothing was changed. And still i donr have answer.


            so i wait for any software update and hope that fix this issue.

The mic is at the very bottom next to the charger so be sure not to cover it. I have just recorded a video and it's loud on playback

                  Just to say have received my Xperia 10 II this morning and it's so far a great phone. Have changed from an Xperia x compact and getting used to the change in height although it's no wider and is actually thinner. I was worried about the loudspeaker but it's perfectly fine. Yeah it's not stereo but it's louder than my old phone by a mile. Just don't turn it full blast as it distorts. It's a lot faster and smoother to use so what all the concern about the snapdragon processor is about I will never know.

                    joe nodden, 10 Jun 2020Literally priced the same as the IQOO Neo 3. The difference... moreYou're orbiting any, even every comment section on Sony phone pages, either 1 II,10 II, or L4. What are you? Pluto orbiting the Sun? And since when is Sony spamming the phone market industry when they only launched 4 phones so far (PRO, 1 II, 10 II and L4), when the others are launching so many phones every single week like no tomorrow, even some people can't keep up with them? And what's your next target? Xperia 5 II? smh dude...

                      Merajzem, 24 Feb 2020Still under 4000 mhz battery 👎Will be fine with less power consuming OLED screen and battery optimization for which SONY is known for !

                        that is why i'm happy !
                        althought it was not refered to, neither tested in the review.
                        i hope it is not a error.

                          [deleted post]I'd guess it could be something like unwillingness of most people to consider other characteristics than just tech specs - while that's not so easy to consider and because of their obvious doubts and second thoughts about that, they want to force all other people who chose to look at (and pay for) different values, to follow their exact narrow way. Can't imagine there is something more than just insecurity feelings which force them to act so aggressively - otherwise it would be just normal discussion over their happy choice and our happy choice; both sides satisfied and pleased about their attitudes...

I done fix option and factory reset. I used only help app and services test (both on a board in stock) to check both microphones.
                            Ahave small number of apps and only 2 of them i get not from playstore: sonys email app (compatybile with android10) and recent call widget from Sonys too (this is version for older android but works perfectly).
                            Now i don't do nothing more and wait incoming update should fix it (i hope).
                            When any prolems appears again i get rid of this widget and conside wipe again.

                                Literally priced the same as the IQOO Neo 3. The difference is the Neo 3 has the 865, an SoC that performs over 3 times better. And a 144hz display to go along with it. The only real downside is the punch hole LCD.

                                Sony stop flooding the market with overpriced trash. This is twice the price it should've been.

It's surely a bug in the firmware and good luck with that because it will take a minimum of 6 months to sqush that bug by sony.

                                    Such a dumb design

                                      ralf316, 09 Jun 2020Looks like i have any software problem. I still have proble... moreHave you done a factory reset? I noticed that you have been messing around with trying to install old APKs and playing with diagnostic functions... I would suggest resetting the phone, and just use it as a phone. If you don't like the software that comes with it, try something that is supported by the phone on the Play store, rather than custom APKs of old Sony software that was only intended to be used on one phone ever.

                                        AnonD-783118, 08 Jun 2020Okay so I bought this phone and I have it now for a about a... moreThank you for your clear headed view on this phone. I'm thinking of buying one myself and I'm glad to see something said from someone who is neither pureblood Sony fanboy nor hater who only looks on numbers.

                                        I mean, could this phone be better? Of course, OIS on main camera would be awesome, stereo speakers would be nice (but meh) and a better SoC would be greatly appreciated, not for the extra power but better lifespan and performance after few years.

                                        I think this phone will be great for day to day use as a phone. For media, web and all normal apps. If you are looking for a gaming beast why are you looking at 6" phone? I want a phone that feels good in one hand, can easily run all my daily apps, if I see a funny bird take a picture of it and if I want, I can plug my Audio-Technika wired headphones in for some premium sound. This is the phone that can do it.

                                        I've seen some people compering phone companies to cars and I think it has a point. You can buy VW Golf or other VW concern car (Samsung, Xiaomi) and it would be good car. You can buy a BMW and pay premium for great engine and features (flagships). This phone is a Toyota, it is not flashy or extra powerful, but it will perform almost anything you need it for and most likely will perform it far longer then others thanks to optimization. It is the boring safe bet, but it will work.

                                        For those who call this phone overpriced I say 'sure, I guess'. You can find better for cheaper from Chinese companies or just as good for cheaper. But if you care, you can take in consideration that Sony has stricter environmental policies than most companies so bit of that higher price can make a huge difference on the effect on the sustainability.

                                        I personally will wait and buy one as soon as the price drops to ~300 euro and I think it will be worth every single cent.
