    I think Sony should have 2 phones more.
    Besides 1, 5 and 10.
    They're still better than most of phone OEMs.

      Why would you need 4k screen on a phone?

Slowest charging speeds, less features compared to competition, worst software support(ONLY 4 years of security?, so how many for major OS updates 3? LOL ), ONLY 1310 nits in auto mode MAXIMUM???????. I doubt in more warm countries you can see anything on this cr**. Of course if you carry around a freezer or leave your phone under AC after heavier use maybe it will not throttle with screen brightness that much in warm environment.

          - New battery compression technology that provides significantly longer battery life
          That's great and the only plus on this phone compared to last year and comparing to competition.

          - Optimized charging speeds that insure integrity longevity
          That's fancy way telling delusional people that charging s**ks. When your battery charging is slower compared to samsung then you have super sh**ty charging speed. (kinda reminds me of an apple with their weird names on cpu like "bionic" and other stuff. In reality 0.01 faster instagram loading on new cpu compared to last gen lol).

          Your argument "BuT In ThE LoNg RuN It WiLl LaSt LoNgEr" is not valid. Software support suc*** so it's not worth mentioning long run at all(4 years of security is pretty bad. Security=!features, major OS updates). Xiaomi charges 90w+ and it doesn't hurt battery so your point of mentioning fast charging is not valid too. Why? Because they are charging "battery blocks". For example 3 "battery blocks" with 30W each. It stays cool, charges super fast and it's good in a long run.

            - New stacked sensor technology for more light,
            - Fast-swap microSD storage that you can utilize on the go (targeted at photographers),
            - High quality 3.5mm DAC,
            - New battery compression technology that provides significantly longer battery life,
            - Optimized charging speeds that insure integrity longevity,
            - Properly balanced front firing stereo speakers,
            - Slim design with no camera bump,

            Just at the top of my head.

              Dang I thought Sony gonna add 8K in this phone but the answer is no. But obviously the camera is good part for most of it

                i hate it that they changed the aspect ratio but still Xperia is Xperia &it still is a solid device, hopefully it'll still support 4K video playback,i think it will , someone please check if you have the device that it plays 4k videos (vlc or natively)

                that's Anakin signing off, i think i have already been involved in to much discussion here and now I'm just concluding them

All the flagships are overpriced. Period. The variable refresh display, class leading battery, and an aesthetic unlike other brands are reasons I want the phone. I had an XR, a Z3C, and loved having them both.

The International or Global named version is actually the Asian Model that GSM Arena is referring to. I compared the models on Sony UK and Sony Hong Kong websites, and one of the sites that sells these phones was also mentioning that Global Version is actually Hong Kong version, which answers our question. As a conclusion, yes, there are differences on 4g and 5g band support between the european and other models. I wouldn't like to learn the affect on them after I buy since I live in a European area. That's why, it seems that 256gb is the only option for us.

                      Hi there, I am trying to find out an info which seems to be quite confusing. Gsm arena mentiones that the phone has 2 storage options, great. And one of them is 512gb, however, as we all know it does not show up in the official european websites. On the other hand, there are international 512gb model listed in some 3rd party websites. So, what should we know about this? For example, is there any supported 4G/5G bands difference between these european 256gb and international 512gb model? How can we know the exact differences between those 2? I would appreciate any help.

As you said most of these people don't know what refresh rate or what chipset their phone has and honestly it doesn't even matter since they either go for brand or how the camera or display looks. People who buy sony/asus/Xiaomi or even to a point pixel tend to look into specs or the features they want to have or like having

                                    Mostly they ask for Excellent camera + one full day battery

                                    so my statement is backed by 8 years of my experience spending real life time inside mobile shop . now it maybe different in some other countries but it is what it is.

                                    when it come to Xperia there are very few selected customer that purchase them for one single reason, They look and feel different from rest of devices , Myself i have a collection of 4k movies that i watch on my Xperia when i go on a trip or camping.

                                    Maybe you found my statement wrong because you are in a different country but i let my situation clear.
