Sony's team that makes camera should work on smartphone camera instead of the usual smartphone team. There's no nonsense quad Bayer in their actual cameras but now they've moved Xperia into this. Why? Why not give us a 20mp main camera with large, pure RGB pixels?? We don't want quad Bayer gimmicks anymore.

    I have a bad feeling that 5v will continue using old 1/1.7" sensor.

      Reds, 12 May 2023It is either you crop for video or you crop for photos. And... moreHere you crop for both unlike other phones. Why such hassle? What benefit? Nothing!
      Yes, 48 vs 52mp or 12 vs 13mp isn't much, but it still is something. Everything matters in flagships. Worst part is that it could be easily avoided.
      Its not like this same sensor was used in some other device and Sony just placed it in 1v to save cost. So theres absolutely no justification

Also is an entirely new sensor technology for Xperia not enough to qualify as commited to mobile?

That's not the kind of claim someone planning to pull out of the mobile space makes.

It also uses AI to make things look much better. Which many people, myself included, do not want.

You could get technical and say that it's a vertical screen so it shouldn't work that way, but it refers to horizontal resolution. Which is 3840. 3840*1644 is a standard 21*9 4K resolution.

                          Mukhlis, 12 May 2023Still ufs 1🥲☠️ dude do you really think you're going to be recording 4K120FPS video onto UFS 1 storage? It's not UFS 1. Sony hasn't divulged that information and it's not in consumers hands to check yet. But I'm telling you it's not UFS 1. UFS 1 does not allow you to save full quality uncompressed 12MP shots at 30FPS.

                                Excellent design, and strong feature set both in software and hardware. However, the stability seems extremely disappointing, what is the point of an 8 Gen 2 if it is going to perform half as good after few minutes of intensive use? But still, the worst part is the quality of and the support for their software. Sony manages to make AOSP look coherent and consistent by how messy and unmaintained their version of Android looks, they probably have very few software developers working on their Android implementation and updates but at the asking price for this phone, it is not our problem and they should do better. What I mean is, they have all these different tweaks, apps, and feature additions that do not come together nicely. Different style and size toggles in the settings, weirdly small text and UI elements for such a large and tall screen, and the high refresh rate option is a single switch on a page on its own with no additional illustrations to fill that white empty pillar of a screen. For over 1400 euros, I expect a phone with attention to detail, coherent and nicely implemented software with many years of support.

                                    There are three things that in my opinion are quite silly and funny. First, they give 30w charging on a 5000mAh battery, although it's fine, but 25w is enough. But, I understand that many people are addicted to their devices so waiting for them to finish charging is difficult. Second, they still use front numbers for 4K resolution. I actually still wonder why they and many people still do it but for the 21:9 ratio with 4K resolution it is actually 5040×2160 instead of 3840×1644 not the numbers in front but the back first that should be written. Third, this one is very clear which is the price of the device.

                                        If only Sony made a midranger that competes with the Poco F5 that also has expandable storage with headphone jack and SD 7+ Gen 2 at a similar price with identical specs.
