I know you can load a custom ROM, but at that price, I'm seriously considering a Pixel 8 Pro or future pixels because of their 7 years security updates commitment. even budget Samsung phones will have a minimum 3 years OS 4 years security (correct me if I'm wrong on this).

          Currently using a Samsung S20 FE 5G and im shocked it hasnt died after 2 yearrs, unlike my two M2 aquas, and Sony Z5 Premium Dual.

                      gahdamn, one of the best phones so far

                        oh to have this phone

                          Main reason this smartphone won't sell S wel as the Samsung Galaxy S23 Series and iPhone 15 series is because it lacks good marketing . This smartphone is well able to match Samsung Galaxy S23 Ultra and S24 Ultra same with Sony Xperia VI in 2024. Sony mobile needs market this towards people are willing to bail on Samsung Galaxy S and Apple iPhones.

Totally different. 192KHz is the highest sample rate in the market today. Not sure if you understand the specs you're looking at. Even if the sample rate was higher, you wouldn't be able to hear the difference. This phone is 24bit/192KHz which translates to a data rate of 9216kbps. There's really no competition to the Sony Xperia for audio quality.

                                    NeverPayOver1000eur, 10 Mar 2024You clearly aren't the intended audience and 1 day of ... more1. It is by far the most consistent camera I've ever used. However, it is not a "point-and-shoot". It is meant for professionals.

                                    95% of people are point and shoot guys. That's why sony is dying.

                                    2. The telephoto is fine. Unless you are in total darkness, by which no other phone will do better.

                                    No it's not actually. You would have different opinion if you would own another device. Now you are trying to justify your overpriced purchase

                                    3. Pixel's camera is garbo compared to the 1V and HDR bracketing isn't a dealbreaker but that's just my opinion.


                                    1 V is garbo compared to pixel. Starting with auto shot mode and ending with portrait mode(2 the most used modes accross all smartphones)


                                    4. Refresh rate is only inconsistent with the default launcher and ONLY when scrolling through apps. I also noticed this but it is an instant fix with eg. Nova Launcher.

                                    Bad sony optimisations. Expected

                                    5. Haptic feedback is a meme feature. I turned it straight off.

                                    If you have bad haptics like xperia 1 v then yes. On other devices like iphone 15 pro max you would be surprised how good this thing is.

                                    6. Complaining about lack of icon packs etc. is a joke. Just use a third-party launcher like Nova like the rest of us and other icon packs...

                                    Yes. Only true statement of yours.

                                    7. Always On display is garbo. I turned it straight off. It's not recommended on OLED screens anyway...

                                    G4rb0 is your opinion. This device is called smartphone for a reason. Most people don't want to turn on their device. It's like a watch + you can see if you have notifications. Overral cool feature. Btw in most smartphones AOD can be trigged with your finger. I mean touching your screen. So your bad assumption of OLED damage is absurd.

                                    8. The speakers are awesome what are you talking about? They are REAL stereo speakers and the microphones are REAL stereo microphones that blow any other phone anyway. Compared to my Xperia 13 Ultra, I sound underwater on that phone. They might not be the loudest speakers but they are by far the clearest. Besides who even uses phone speakers these days? Get some headphones.

                                    For example pixel AI noise isolation would destroy your "best stereo speakers". Try it then b4rk

                                    9. Bluetooth volume is plenty loud enough but you can increase it even more via Developer Settings.

                                    10. Phone heats up too quickly? What? This has never happened to me and I've had mine 6 months and abused it like crazy in all types of applications.

                                    No you didn't. Sony has the worst thermal design of all snapdragon gen 2 devices. Investigate more. Maybe you don't push your device like other do. I'm glad you don't have this problem.

                                      NeverPayOver1000eur, 10 Mar 2024Says it's USB 3.2 but when plugged into my USB 4 port ... moreare you sure USB 4 is back-compatible with every 3.2 device? Maybe it will transfer faster with a 3.2 cable and 3.2 input on the computer end.

                                      Sometimes 2.0 card readers won't work properly with 3.0 inputs on computers.

                                      Still after 25 years I feel USB is giving me a lot of headaches and compatability issues. Feels like a big experiment :)
