What kind of bloatwa... moreLol,bro never seen a samsung interface before ?Guess your memory is too short or you are too young.One of the older samsung ui was named touchwizz ,but was so buggy the fans had to come up with their own name ,,lagwizz'.Samsung have always been famous with their bloated interface and till this day they still include so much useless software that in about 2-3 years of use the phone starts slowing down if not even quicker than that.Not to mention that the hardware that samsung use is known to be problematic (exploding batteries,diying screens the list goes on)Been a long term sony user and honestly these phones are bulletproof (both hardware and software).Hard to kill one of those ,not to mention how well the battery health of every sone phone ive owned were.If you want a phone that lasts and you might keep for longer than a 2 year period ,you should definetly go for a proven manufacturer that puts it customers before everything else.

            Daz, 13 Apr 2025This page is the worst compared to other phone opinion page... more"This page is the worst compared to other phone opinion pages on GSMarena. A lot of" A lot of delusi*nal fans that's for sure. Because this phone should cost max 600-700euros. Poco F7 Ultra gives you way more value. Flagship killer even has longer software support, same auto camera mode experience + faster. Charging 3x faster, battery bigger. Maybe the name sony sounds way better than xiaomi poco but I rather have better value phone and don't pay for greedy manufacturers who doesn't have anything to offer except high price for less features.

                This page is the worst compared to other phone opinion pages on GSMarena. A lot of 'fake news' / misinformation from Sony fans & haters alike. I like phones with micro SD & audio jack options, so the only viable options are this phone or the Samsung Galaxy A25, if I want to use Android 16 in the future and have micro SD & audio jack. I did get an Xperia 10 vi but is was underwhelming compared to Xperia 5 v phone, but Xperia 10 vi has better specs than galaxy A25, and people say galaxy A25 can overheat easily and I did get overheating issue when I used a galaxy A54. So only option for me seems to be to upgrade from Xperia 5 v to Xperia 1 vi, if I want to use Android 16 when it's available & have micro SD + audio jack. I have now ordered an Xperia 1 vi, used / 2nd hand for £590. It is a lot more expensive than galaxy A25 that is available for £155 2nd hand, but it should be worth the extra cost I hope

                              "Since 2019-2020, Sony Xperia Android update timeframes also has been more consistent (never later than March) than Samsung, which is more unorderly than Sony ever been."

                              I doubt that's a good comparison when samsung ONE UI is the most advanced custom UI on android with more features than anybody else. I would say sony is pretty slow because they don't have many features compared to one ui. And still samsung is very fast with updates with exception this year. Probably something happened inside the company but I'm sure next update will come in time lol
