please, don't use Xperia name again, SONY should use new and easy names, old names belong to old phones, SONY needs new air, If someone ask you what is your smartphone's name, you should say: Xperia! 1 iii !? that's a joke.

You can't even play games in 4k because android doesn't support 4k gaming. The phones native resolution is 2560x1096 for doing everything other than watching supported films. So nobody is going to Xperience 4k in their day to day.

        amirlau, 03 Jun 2021it's 1300 nits according to technick on ytJust letting you know that 1300 nits is for the 10% window. Due to the limitation of OLED itself - the automatic brightness limiter (ABL) would not be able to push 1300 nits full frame. I'd assume it'll be around 600 at 100% coverage (Similar to last time), if the screen has a heat sink or vapour chamber then it'll get up to 800 at 100%.

              [deleted post]So you go to Sony forum, where you are obviously going to find Sony fans. You say that the phone is rubbish. One of said fans gets upset and let's you know (actually quite politely) that he is not in agreement. you report him to the admin for personal insults (that I personally haven't detected). My suggestion is to take a long hard look at yourself in the mirror, and decide for yourself if that was really as fun as you thought it was going to be.

Taking into account the price of 12gb ram, sd888, 256/512gb 3.1 ufs. SD card support. The screen may be a gimmick but it is still technically better than any other phone. Aspect ratio is a personal preference and doesn't really change the price. What makes the price of this phone a joke that doesn't apply to similar priced flagships?

Not surprising as this is someone's coming from the person whose favorite's phone of this year still utilizing USB 2.0 port (really, in 2021?) even on their flagships phones, when even Galaxy S21 already utilized USB 3.2 port or even Xperia 10 III already adopted USB 3.1 port, trash-talking about the only few flagships phones of 2021 that ticked most even all components from all spectrums to most basic one to the most complex feature, and the most amusing part of your comment? The phone you're attacking isn't made for you at all, rather for the community Sony approaching in the first place and don't want to buy it at all but act like you care and want to buy this phone right now ROFL. 🙃 Scram off and buy your favorite phone. You're acting Sony had point a gun at you and your family in the past.

In fact it can achieve all the results that you get out of other flagships. Show me another one which is capable of doing that. You can adjust it to be bit saturated and warm and vibrant like SAMSUNG or iPhone or make it bit cool and lower the saturation to make it dull like Oneplus and Vivo.

                      True 4K@120Hz display. No gimmick.

                      Your so called "Stupid 21:9" is the aspect ratio which you have been watching movies in since you were a kid. Now it suddenly became stupid. While the other non standard aspect ratios like 18:9, 19:9, 20:9 are fine. If you hate 21:9 then I hope you never watch another movie in your life. But if you watch and enjoy movies there is no point in hating 21:9 as you enjoy it.

                        Bad image processing, bad selfie camera, 4K display which is a gimmick, and stupid 21:9 ratio. This phone is mediocre at best. 1100€? Are you kidding me?

                                First Impressions: matte finish FTW! Not only the glass on the back is matte, but also the power button and the whole aluminium frame. 120Hz not adaptive, it's either on or off. The camera bump is noticeable bigger, better put a case on the back. Very noticeable heat on heavy loads and especially when using the camera, can be felt through the thicc xperia case. Even better camera app than mark2.
                                Some minor problems though, but mostly because of particular location I am in (mainland China). These problems all come from bad localization.The fingerprint sensor is quick and works well for unlocking the phone, but does not support Alipay. NFC does not work with Alipay either, although both fingerprint and NFC works with WeChat.
                                All in all, very aesthetically pleasing phone, with good

Only $100 more than its expensive-for-what-it-was predecessor with dual periscope, 888, adding 120Hz to 4K, 4 more gigs of RAM, and 40% louder speakers/DAC is a pretty good upgrade in my book.

                                        On June 1st in China, Xperia 1 iii was the #10 sales among all phones available in China.
                                        This is first Xperia to achieve this.
