    SilverHammer, 26 Jun 2023Hi. Your comment about oberheating is very important for me... moreAvoid buying any samsung fabbed soc(sd8gen1,sd888,etc.), they all overheat & throttle hard which is very notceable when you are pushing the phone whether its xiaiomi, samsung, sony, oppo, etc. any brand.

    If you dont want to get the latest Xperia with SD8 Gen2(TSMC), maybe if available
    Xperia 1/5 II(sd865) older but doesnt overheat.

              Do the latest Sony phones still support themes? I was a die hard Sony user many years back and one of the things I liked most was themes support and the ability to change the entire interface including wallpaper, accent, icons and even sounds by changing the theme

                      I just this phone a couple of days back. I bought it from Taipei from a Sony shop and now using it in India. The phone gets updates everyday ranging from 80mb to 1gb and it automatically starts upgrading in 3 steps.
                      I am amused about the everyday updates. Are they from Sony or Google? If it's Google, I am worried about unnecessary bloatware or some shitty update which would ruin the software goodness. Is anyone else facing this?

                      BTW absolutely luving the handset and the feel it gives while using it. Sleek, tall & light weight!

                        Having bad network reception, any one have the same issues? Network just disappears and stays that way for some time?

                          is this phone good for today? since the Latest version is whoping $2000 from my country. and how long does provide update on their flagship phones?

                            I would like to ask anyone if their Sony Xperia 1 mark 4 had their screen split in to to shades of colour?
                            This has happen twice now and the phone it self is overheating enormously.

                              I dont know much about these numbers in cameras.. but I like a good ultrawide view in a camera.. such as this one.. 12 MP, f/2.2, 16mm (ultrawide), 1/2.5" (probably 124˚)
                              I guess this is one of them.. and I always like/trust the quality of Sony cameras..
                              but in opposite.. I am disappointed most of good phones do not try to increase their slo-mo performance video recording fps rates.. more than 240 or 120... where as some of them provide this feature as 1920 FPS at 1080p resolution !! which is way better than 240.. am i right ??
                              I dont understand this.. is there any 3rd party app which can do this ?? thats why non of them phone developers dont bother developing this feature ?

                                Picked one up 2nd hand for £420 a few days ago. It's really well built and feels every bit as expensive as its retail price suggests. Common Xperia gripes such as heat are still an issue with the 1iv, when you open the pro camera apps for the first time, each one will give you a warning that the phone may get so hot as to potentially cause burns (!). It does indeed get very hot. The party-piece zoom lens is incredible tech with a lot of promise but the shots you get indicate that this is very first generation, you are paying an early-adopter tax in image quality for sure. I would like to see Sony continue pushing the optical zoom tech and putting higher quality optics in their Xperia zoom lenses, preferably optics first, the sharpness really needs improving.

                                  Had Samsung Galaxy before, amazing upgrade. Very happy with this unit. Was worries about heat beforehand, took the chance, but after running the updates no heat at all. Great!

                                      Most expensive sony phone should 4 year updates like google and samsung

                                        Anton-, 19 Mar 2023That Sony is not going to launch a new phone this year?According to the rumor and pattern timeline, Sony will release their Ultra (1 series) flagships and mid-ranger 10 series in May going forward since 1 IV/10 IV, as Sony needs time to iron out and finish their phones before putting them on sale. Most of the people have been complaining and wanting Sony to unveil and put their sales up as fast as they could, as from the Xperia X Performance to the Xperia 1 III, they always start selling 3–4 months after unveiling, and they delivered on that request since the Xperia Pro-I (unveiled in October, sales start in December) and the Xperia 1 IV (unveiled in May, released in June except in the USA). So, the Xperia 1 V should be unveiled in mid-May at the earliest.
