I left out names from the email as I don't think they are important.
But supposedly the engineers are on it , so fingers crossed we get sorted soon enough

Eko Briketi, 15 Sep 2021I have the phone for over 3 months now. Great clean design,... moreI found the tint and black crush issues greatly reduce on my Xperia 10iii if I set image quality mode to " original" and white balance values all set to "0"
After a few minutes of high brightness usage , the screen issues don't seem noticeable now

I've had mine for about 3 months. I can get a full 2 days on a charge. That's with an average of about 2 hours video calls a day.
A 1 hour voice call barely moves the battery. In short the battery lasts about 4 times as long as the 3 year old S9 it replaced.
Everything works fine. Don't know why you would want more.

I have the phone for over 3 months now. Great clean design, no round edges, no camera-hole on the screen, very small camera bump on the back, do have memory card and audio jack, also side mounted finger-print button. Small and easy to use with one hand. The battery life is great - 3 days on normal use, so charging battery is about 3 times a week to 80% (some kind of battery saver option from Sony). On full charge even better. These where the things I looked for, so there was not much of a choice between all brands in my country.
I do have the green screen tint bug on low lite, but I don't really care about that. The original camera app produced below average photos, so in the beginning I was a bit disappointed even if I knew it is was not a great camera phone. A few weeks later I downloaded Gcam(Google camera app) from XDA forum, ver 7.4(I think) , and it was a whole different story. After some play with the app settings I get so much better results from the original app, that it is hard to believe it is the same hardware in the same conditions. Photos are not over-sharpened or over-saturated, so they still have this "SONY realistic style". So, I'm happy with this phone even with the price in mind. Also I got a gift promo-pack with the phone - noise canceling Bluetooth headphones. They are not something special, but still a great addition to my purchase.

But don't worry 👍

Sorry if that's a stupid question but wouldn't a 1/2" 32 Megapixel sensor have the same quality as this 8MP 2x Telephoto? Because it seems like a weird choise to me.

J, 05 Jun 2021Does this have an Always-On Display feature?No this phone unfortunately does not have an always on display. Otherwise it would have been a very nice phone - I really miss the AOD I had on my previous 2 phones. If I had known this earlier I would not have bought this phone.
Also, because of the small screen and narrow width, text in apps are super small. I already changed the fonts to large in settings but it doesn't apply to all apps.

ksuuk, 22 Aug 2021I guess it's depends of the hardware, if hardware does... moreSo Sony confirms on the Amazon UK product page QA that it has a functional radio, but don't ship a radio app.
Does Android 11 even support third party FM radio apps, due to the updates in the permission model? If not, this would be rubbish...

Don't care one bit about cameras, wish they only put in one instead of all these, we're not all "influencers" or want to take selfies where ever se are... Am in between this of a Xiaomi M11 lite and can't decide. I do like Sony overall, but this phone is heavier than the Xiaomi (never had a chinese phone before) can anyone say something about the sound in this Sony phone?
