LucasN82, 06 Dec 2023Xperia 1V is PRO phone.You can't use PRO in same sentence with sony smartphone.
Bad software support, almost no accessories, almost impossible to buy in most countries where xiaomi, apple, samsung, vivo and similar brands are available, super high prices.
The only thing sony fanboys are constantly saying: "BuT iT HaS LsD MoDe". Man stf* no one cares about that. 90% percent people cares about OS updates, auto mode when taking pictures and phone features in general. Sony is far behind all the competition. Apple, samsung, xiaomi, oneplus, bla bla. Everyone is better for their price.

Anonym, 03 Dec 2023Weekly reminder for All. True about 1V: "Xperia HDR HL... moreIt's so good even sales speaks for themselves.
They are selling only in:
US (limited capacity, not through carriers), UK, some western Europe, Japan, Taiwan, Hong Kong, China, Singapore, Malaysia, Thailand.
In other words they are dying. They aren't even the most popular brand in Japan hahaha.
I'll come to roast you when they go bankrupt. They already started taking games from people. Sooner or later sony overpriced smartphones will be dead like HTC.

1) Build quality -- Good
2) design------very bad---5 yes old design
3) software support..---- very poor
4) pricing -------- almost equal to iPhone & Samsung ..both the brands offer you max in above 4 points.
You decide and explain,why people should buy Sony ..

Pitchwisse, 04 Dec 2023Honestly, that's an extremely reasonable point of view... moreFerrari is one of the best car. Most people want to buy it, and for those who do not have money are dreaming to buy it.
Most people in the world know xperia, but they avoid buying it. And people who don't have enough money are dreaming to buy samsung and iphone.
So it means.. sony xperia is not the best phone.

TheSnowWinterR7, 02 Dec 2023Considering Sony never made smartphone business their highe... moreHonestly, that's an extremely reasonable point of view. I really did not think in the way of protecting patents, but it makes a lot of sense. I am still daily driving mine, even though I have a box full of flagships.
Even if it is just a side project, it's hands down the best phone on the market right now.

I'm very disappointed watching all tech reviews because they all say " This is phone for enthusiasts and not for mainstream users".
Well I would consider myself a mainstream user, I have used iPhone for last 5years and now got myself Sony Xperia 1V. And I don't see why this phone is not considered to be good for everyone. It has really nice design, it feels very comfortable in hand. Has really nice cameras and photos in Auto mode is nice as well👍🏽 Has 4k 120hz display and flagship CPU from Qualcomm.
I can compare pictures from iPhone 13PM and Xperia 1V both on auto mode and both takes great pictures... Sony's are more natural but for me thats a +.
So yes overally I think that it's very unfair to Sony that big tech reviewers vote against this phone for users like me they suggest Samsung or Pixel better .... which is wrong.
I recommend this phone to everyone who wants a great phone ,that is confortable in hand and will handle every task you throw at it very well🥳👍🏽

Anonymous, 01 Dec 2023Sensor with bad software. What a flex to be honest You are wrong. That was in past. At now Xperia 1V makes better photos in Auto than in Manual mode. Type "Xperia 1V HDR HLG" and you will find the true. No one believe you because you sounds like Xbox fan.

TheSnowWinterR7, 02 Dec 2023Considering Sony never made smartphone business their highe... moreThere's a lot of ' leaks ' saying that the 2024 lineup will see a whole different strategy and lineup for the mobile division but I'm skeptical of that. just really hope they find their mobile division to be worth it rather than just keep it as a show piece it's a real shame on Sony's part not even LG had such a cry from reviewers and fans to make a comeback hope they listen at least next year

Pitchwisse, 30 Nov 2023That was the entire point of my comment - they simply do no... moreConsidering Sony never made smartphone business their highest priority during its commencement in 2000 until now (unlike Apple or Nokia), I think it's safe to say that Sony is doing this for two main reasons, outside being that Sony's side projects status reasoning, as you said earlier, are to extend Sony Alpha's hand closely and just to keep the patents and technology they have in the smartphone division that they implement in other divisions that may be lost if they quit just like that, such as 5G (or 6G too) radio equipment and NFC.
Besides, Sony has two of their biggest moneymaker divisions, the biggest being their Financial Group Division (Bank, Insurance, etc.) that generates almost 50% of their profit*, and the second is gaming (PlayStation and Services). Three, if you include their Sony Music division, which generates decent profits. Plus, Sony is probably increasing its operation on B2B, which has some advantages over B2C (proof are Apple Vision Pro's tech and Exmor T expanding outside Xperia inside Find N3 and OP Open).
