Yeah someone answered me in a review from Youtube, my apologize to Stanley, I will miss it too but I do not mind about it, but it will be cool to have it, I think since Xperia 1 Mark 3 is already gone

    KaChai, 13 Jun 2023Here it is. https://electronics.sony.com/mobile/smartpho... moreI think Erin doesn't know what they're talking about. Every review I have seen states that it no longer has the LED notification. I, for one, will miss it as well. Such a nice feature to look over and be able to figure out if it's worth picking up the phone to check the notification right then or if it can wait.

          Hi JuicyJ, thanks for your interests. Yes, it will.

          With its next-generation Exmor T for mobile sensor and computational processing, the Xperia 1 V delivers low-light pictures that you never thought possible on a smartphone, with less noise and wider dynamic range – and videos with cinematic colour expression. Its imaging prowess is complemented by a host of other features, from immersive entertainment to functional, tactile design.

          Regards,
          Erin

                    I really hope that Sony becomes more popular and that they release 5 V

                      Notification LED Lov, 10 Jun 2023No notification LED, no buy.I had three reasons to want this phone... (1) Front facing stereo speakers inside proper bezels that house all the necessary sensors thereby leaving the screen with NO holes (that may be more than one reason - LOL) (2) Headphone Jack, (3) Notification LED.
                      For the price of this phone I expect ALL these things to be there because I do not really like the 21:9 aspect ratio (but can live with it). I do not like the fingerprint sensor in the power button but can live with it also... (place it on the back 1st, or under screen 2nd.)
                      HOWEVER, for no logical reason (I don't care what their logic may be) Sony decided to REMOVE one of the most important features (TO ME) that virtually NO OEM has any longer...the notification LED!!!! Sorry Sony, but if I have to use a 3rd party app to get what I want then I might as well save some $$$$$ and stick with the Pixel. You lost another sale. You are bending over dollars to pick up dimes!

                        Notification LED Lov, 10 Jun 2023No notification LED, no buy.I hope you're sincere and not mocking. I heard Android 14 allows camera flash and screen flashing as notification and that's why Sony removed the LED. Regardless, the custom LED is much better than those in Android 14. I'd rather take notification LED and one 5x telephoto over moving 3x-5x telephoto lens.

I have the XZ2 Premium and I remember the major criticism was the weight... "It is too heavy!"

Ahmm people watch iPhone 11 to iPhone is the same, as the S21 to the S23

They're like different beasts of the same kind, both much better than any Canon camera.

                                But I understand and I guess Sony will be a somewhat separate entity from the mainstream smartphone market (aside from their 5 and 10 models).

I don'... moreIt must be related to both 1.) the unwell receptions of the 2018 Xperia lineup (XZ2 series, XZ3, XA2 series, L2) from the tech community, as 2018 Xperia was called out for being too mainstream in Xperia history and yet still didn't work to appeal to the mass market and gain enough revenue/profit to move further after XZ1/XZP was deemed "outdated" (removal of the 3.5mm headphone jack, too curved for Sony devices, "copycat" of HTC design, fingerprint sensor moved to the back, etc.) and 2.) Sony's internal restructuring happened in 2018 after the new CEO was appointed in order to preserve Xperia around as Xperia is the last telecommunication division of Sony that Sony may needed for other divisions as well (they mentioned the no.2 in their interviews about keeping Xperia in their portfolio)
                                    .
                                    Hence, for Sony, it was returning back to its roots and drawing board gradually in 2019 (back being to its signature boxy rectangular gradually, fingerprint sensor back to the side) and fully in 2020/2022 (3.5mm headphone jack returned fully, design is even boxier), while changing its market from mass-market to niche, even super-niche devices, and focusing on their Pro series and flagships rather than mid-rangers and low-ends (when get even pricier, but better profits income, it's better to be that way; I mean, LG did the opposite, selling a lot of devices in low-ends and mid-rangers however not flagships and appealing mostly to mass-market, but profits weren't enough to keep it running AFAIK). Plus, Xperia has since then acted as Sony Alpha training wheels, proof-of-concept, transferring Alpha tech and know-how to Xperia even more, and companion devices after the Alpha division was assigned to supervise Xperia since internal restructuring happened and continues until today.

                                        The specs of the Sony Xperia iV are attractive. However, at this price, a three years security update promise (vs five years from Samsung) is a no go.
