well i have 4 phones in my disposal and this xperia mk III i am using is the fourth one that i purchased recently second hand... im using it and it seems fine by me yes the downside is the battery which it has 4500mah i guess a halfday of usage would last with a single charge other than that everything is good performance storage wifi etc. camera for me is good it is the same quality as my VIVO X70 pro with the same Zeiss optic camera it gave me some nice pictures and video quality (if you are not keen too much on the camera side if not choose samsung) overall for me this phone is good even some owners dont like it... i just bought it for nostalgia since my first ever android phone was an Xperia Z1 it had everything in this phone as what that Z1 had with more features in it I love this phone well i hope you too if you try it...

I'm wanting to buy this phone second hand. Is there any greenline issue with this phone? How bad is the heating issue? Also here in my country the Samsung s21 is also around the same range as Xperia 1 mark iii. Should I go with the Xperia or Samsung all things considered?

Envy, 11 Dec 2024Hello, anyone here been using the phone since launch? Does ... moremy unit has green tint on ~50% of the screen which is always visible if you look closely but especially visible with low screen brightness. imo it makes watching movies a bad experience because there is a color gradient from one end of the screen to the other... This is the biggest issue with the phone. Two smaller issues are: there is a software bug that sometimes occurrs when using gesture controls; the phone gets pretty hot when charging or high performance tasks.

I bought my 1iii new in 2022 (a year after release to let them iron out any issues software and hardware). Mine is fine in all aspects - it's been in a case with a screen protector since new, and I've left the battery charge limited to 80%.
I came from a poor experience with a Pixel 3a. The camera on the 1iii does need a lot of tinkering to get good results, but once you master the correct settings, the photos on the Xperia look more real-life. The big thing is, most people these days don't have the patience for that - they just want it to work and look good immediately. That's the biggest consideration people need to make with Xperia phones. Otherwise you should stick with the mainstream brands like Samsung and Apple.
In my case, the 3a did photography better out-of-the-box (and that didn't have Pro modes), but Google started updating everything and made things worse - obvious case of planned obsolescence. I regret updating the OS and apps as it was perfectly fine when I got that in late 2019. As well, I regret updating my 1iii to Android 13 purely because of of the wireless toggles (needs more swipes now to access Wifi and Data toggles), but otherwise stability hasn't changed unlike Google. Still solid, only had to force-restart once after it hard-froze while I was listening to music and taking a photo at the same time, but hasn't happened again.
Otherwise, I had a Galaxy S6 128GB (for four years) before my 3a (that only managed just over two years - only stopped using it because Google released a Clock update which killed the alarm - yeah nah). My 1iii is the grey 512GB, and provided no dodgy updates, I'll only consider replacing my Xperia once the internal memory fills up (I'd estimate probably close to 2030 - I have access to genuine batteries for my 1iii straight from Japan). I don't care about updates that much - don't do anything dodgy and just update the web browser, and it will last you as long as the hardware is good. That's the only reason I would opt for flagships - to use as long as possible vs more frequent replacements. My next phone is probably a foldable to be honest, being the nerd that I am.

Randomuser, 04 Dec 2024I want to purchase this phone (used) for general use and so... moreI purchased this Sony a month ago used with slight screen burn in marks, but no greens lines or whatsoever as I can say right now. But the camera is quite disappointing. Get a Samsung S23 used or brand new.
