KING DRANZER, 01 Aug 2021SONY should simply look at numbers and charts of their sale... moreWhen ther were selling 40 million units annualy they were actually loosing over billion dollars. Now with less than 5 million units shipped their profit is 250 million. I guess they are doing something right considering their 2021 lineup has a median price of $1,300 per unit.

Nick, 05 Aug 2021Why is the 5 III's telephoto sharper than the 1 III�... moreBecause their 1 III was early preproduction model. If you check samples from people who have production 1 III unit their telephoto images are just as sharp

AcceleRacer, 04 Aug 2021I was expecting to be 2160x3840 pixels but i will be waitin... moreIf Sony made the vertical resolution 2160p, the horizontal would be 5040 pixels wide which would be overkill and mostly useless because all 4K videos are 3840 pixels wide. Netflix streams at 3840x2160, but for 21:9 movies, it's cropped so you end up with 3840x1646 which is very close to the resolution on the Xperia 1 III

Why is the 5 III's telephoto sharper than the 1 III's? gsmarena noted the same for 5 II vs 1 II
This is very annoying as I was hoping to get the 1 III but it's more expensive, has worse battery life and a worse telephoto camera
Why hasn't Sony fixed this?!
Could the ToF sensor be to blame? Does the ToF have any benefits at all to be honest?

AcceleRacer, 04 Aug 2021I was expecting to be 2160x3840 pixels but i will be waitin... moreBut that's in 16:9. When did you last time see a new phone with that screen ratio? Sorry, but I just don't see it happening. Not just with Sony. All phone screens are now between 19.5:9 and 21:9. Those 16:9 times are over.

This device is very underwhelming compared to the recent flagships.
Plus this one doesn't even have a fast charging brick in the box. The Mi 11 Ultra is better. Let's be honest.
Just install GCam on the Ultra then it would beat this thing a lot of times, no matter the condition is.

Then I switched to XZ Premium which I purchased for my Dad when it launched but then Gifted him XS. I was planning to purchase XPERIA 1 II but the purchase got delayed and postponed repeatedly due to Covid. Now I plan to Purchase XPERIA 1 III. Lets see how it goes. It all depends on when my cousin plans to visit thanks to Covid the planned trip is getting postponed repeatedly.

I was wondering if he was more careless or not actually dropped his phone several times and you hadn't, that's all. I've pre-ordered the 1 III an am hoping for the best

Using Sony from 2016. In the beginning Xperia Z3 compact (still works), now XZ1 4/64gb. And will use sony, because the quality of its devices, the optimization & design are top-level-solutions.
Sony stays Sony!

SONY should simply look at numbers and charts of their sales from 2013-2015 and of 2019-2021.
In 2020 whole year they only managed to sell less than 5million phones throughout the world. While they managed to sell 5.8million phones in less than a month in a single region and besides that craziness they managed to sell 20million+ phones across the world. That is good 4-5times more sales than what they are currently seeing.
If the sales were bad back then I would have accepted the fact that SONY is not selling well and should Exit Smartphone market. But that is not the case. SONY is just outright being dumb. They are ruining their own profits. I wish a New CEO steps in as the current one has no experience or running a company specially one that big.
