Why Sony, why?? The focal lengths in between are far too important to simply skip them.

thedeev1, 11 May 2023Bruh thats tablet sized aint no way 7in 16:9 is fitting in ... moreDepends who you are. Mens jeans can easily fit that. Not women's jeans, but I think we've already established at this point that gadgets aren't one size fits all solutions.

This way for videos and photos you crop less than if you had a 4 by 3 sensor. 4.3 by 3 is actually a sweet spot

Anonymous, 11 May 2023I agree that its double layered which is great, but why not... moreThink of these things independently it'll make more sense.
-Wider sensor aspect ratio means slightly smaller pixels for 4*3 photos, but much larger pixels for 16*9 and 21*9 video.
-New sensor technology increases light capture and noise level to further elevate different aspect ratio leading to bigger pixels for video.
As a device that has 4K120fps video, I think it makes a lot of sense. It's video centric. It's not trying to be just a photography device.

I wish for a bigger screen on this phone. I still want an Xperia though. Advancements in technology make it worth it.

osa320, 11 May 2023I am not talking about resolution i am talking about sensor... moreSensors are rectangles. Lens are circles.
In the end you never have 100% of pixels used.
Pixels outsode image circle can be used to improve EIS.
Those 12MP are actually 12.2 or 12.5.
Total resolution x effective resolution.
If I am not wrong , imx989 is 51.5MP that can use 50MP.

This year Sony did not disappoint me because they have used up all my expectations over the past couple years. May be I could get caught up with a hype of an upcoming Xperia Pro-II and hold off on a phone upgrade for 2023. But, once there are way better value for money like: Oppo Find X6 Pro, Xiaomi 13 Ultra or even the OnePlus 11, I cannot see the logic in anyone buying this phone. Sorry Sony but you are doing the same things over and over.

There are so many things right about Sony phones. I'd buy one in a heartbeat if they offered a larger display phone. I'm used to phablets and I don't want to go back to narrow phones. Give me 7.5-8in bezelless. (I'd be happy with 7in 16:9 too)

Why resort into afterthoughts such as cropping? Its 1400EUR so why have such unrefineness to it? It's so easily avoidable and Sony makes so many 4:3 sensors which makes this mistake stick out especially at such price.

osa320, 11 May 2023You take videos in 16:9 and photos in 4:3 so you would need... moreNo, you're incorrect, there's no better video because even 4k is just 8.3 megapixels so it doesn't use a 12mp sensor fully. Even if you start with a 4.3:3 sensor, you're working with same 8 megapixels rectangle as you would if it was 4:3! What you seem to think, which is making the sensor a little wider will use more area of sensor for video, is wrong. It's the same 8.3 megapixel rectangle, I hope you understand. So there's no better video. Even if you think of 8k, in phones that's done by remosaicing quad bayer sensor to achieve higher resolution from the same 8.3mp rectangle, because 8.3x4=33.2mp.
But in photos, there's no 4k barrier. As long as 4:3 standard is achieved, any resolution is acceptable. If the sensor is 4:3 then whole of it can be used. But by using a 4.3:3 sensor, they couldn't use all of it, resulting in worse photos. Had Sony use a sensor of same area which is 52mp/13mp but 4:3 we'd get better result due to more resolution, or even if they used a 48mp/12mp sensor of same size (like in iPhone 14 pro/max) with bigger pixel then that's better too.
Either way, one should admit Sony did wrong here. Just because you're a Sony fan, or fan of any brand, doesn't mean you shouldn't confess the mistakes of that brand.

Tann Hauser, 11 May 2023As always, quite stpd comments.
Just a sim1 and sim2 sl... more30W charging is even too much in my opinion. The damage to batteryhealth is not worth the 20 min shorter charge. (that would be 20 aeons in teen slang, yah?
man since 2017 and dash charge this been never an issue maybe only for you who is dare to try new future tech.
My phone charging at 67W battery is topped to 100% from flat in 40 minutes and is way too slow.
Rest is as i sad.
If a person needs one sim card as personal sim and other for work plus SD slot shared sim tray is total garbage.
What yu have and working does not impress anyone because 7 years or 10 years old devices are good for GSM services only rest is useless because will be not supported y old android version.
