      This is why it looks sharper than 5ii.

          There are some people who have tested the pre-release version of this phone and said that the battery life is pretty good for such hardware.
          Idk how reliable that really is, but I presume that it can be true since Sony has also done an excellent job with 120Hz on the Xperia 5 II with just 4,000mAh battery and non-variable refresh rate.

                Even my budget phone with 120Hz display switches down to 60Hz when just watching a video.

                  Resolution is always FHD+ and then upscaling, unless you watch a real 4K video.

I Swipe Pro for Facebook (prevents trackers and ads), YouTube Vanced, Rocket Music player (maybe not that odd), a credit union only Disney cast members use, etc. I want to make sure certain apps don't run on pointless refresh rates and resolutions.

                    There actually is an app (I forget the name but it's on XDA) that does this for Samsung and OnePlus phones. I really want that support for Sony...

                      Dometalican, 28 May 2021Uh oh... So we can't pick what apps run whatever resol... moreWhy would you want to modify the resolution and refresh rate at which apps would run at anyway?
                      If an app only supports up to 60fps at most, then setting it to run at 120Hz is useless and would just drain the battery even more.
                      Same goes for those that can't run natively at 4K, but at least Sony does its best to perfectly upscale lower resolution contents to near 4K quality without taking any toll on battery life.
                      Knowing Sony, this would have a decent battery life even at 4K 120Hz, as they were able to squeeze out some excellent run time on the 5 II with a 120Hz screen on a 4,000mAh battery.

                      Besides, Sony themselves can't control apps individually to render in different resolutions and refresh rates because this is done on the OS level, meaning you'll have to ask Google to have this functionality on the OS itself rather than have the Android manufacturer do it.

                        I love Sony products, their phones and all others. But with emphasis on their phones they might end up killing themselves for delay in the availability of the products.
