milesfastguy, 04 Aug 2023Do you mean to say that Sony fixed the over heat issue at t... moreEven the Xperia V smartphones throttels... but the thermal management is a lot better then in the beginning days of the IV models. Which was cause by an inefficient fab of Samsung 4nm node. They are fixed now trough firmware updates, but the fix came far to late.. so many people ditched their phones before the fix. I bought the 5 IV in July 2023 so i didn't noticed all the overheating issues the day-one buyers had.

Couple of days after my warranty expires, my fingerprint sensor stop working. The phone can't even detect it anymore (:.
Apparently this is a big issue with most of their phones. Cheap fingerprint sensors used in a VERY expensive phone.

Is the 4k active only when viewing 4k content? What about when viewing photos in the gallery etc, is 4k enabled or disabled that time?
The only reason why I'm considering the 1 series is the 4k display. Otherwise I think the 5 series is better-- more compact, cheaper, more power efficient, less heat etc. What do you think?

Does this also hold for the new 1 v? What I know is that the 1 v has zero heating issues out of the box. But maybe it also has the same compromise?? On top of that its too costly compared to 1 iv. If the 1 v also throttles like it's predecessor then I guess I'm better off buying the 1 iv. What do you say?

Planning to buy a new xperia but can't decide between the 1 iv and the 5 iii. I'm considering these two as both have the continuous optical zoom feature. The 1 iv has the 4k screen, better RAM and it is newer. The 5 iii is compact, more power efficient, cheaper etc. Is there any other major difference between the two phones? I know the overheating issue is common to both due to the underlying chipset but I know for sure that it is fixable after a security update.
