        boota, 06 Jul 2023I have been using it for 2 weeks now and honestly please do... moreI have been using this phone for 2 years, and I believe this review is simply wrong:

        1. The signal is excellent.
        2. The flashlight is decent and comparable with other flashlights on flagships.
        3. The Android clean experience is exceptional. And Sony excels in battery optimization.

        This is an outstanding phone. To clutter, perfect form factor, brilliant design, very powerful, superb display, there are so many pluses. I simply don't understand why would people consider otherwise. I fully recommend it.

          I have been using it for 2 weeks now and honestly please don't buy this phone. Sony is terrible at making phones. They have 0.1% market share for a reason and now I understand why. I looked at this phone and some reviews and I was like the camera is not great but the phone overall looks good because the hardware is good and they didn't mess with android at all, what could possibly go wrong. But here are some serious problems with this phone:
          1. The worst part is SIM signals. It is barely catching 4G signals and keeps on shifting between 3G, 4G, 4G+ all the time on auto mode and you already know what happens when it keeps on shifting frequently (it just doesn't work).

          2. The flashlight is extremely dull. It is only useful to you when you are lost somewhere in a cave and it's completely dark (zero photons) and you should be able to just see things with the flashlight on.

          3. They literally didn't mess around with android and I thought maybe it's a good thing atleast for me because i wanted simplicity but its definitely not. Optimizations are definitely required like at least a little bit of battery and memory optimization features and stuff like that. The only thing they messed around is added some ching pong apps which i had to disable.

          I believe there are a few things i can't seem to remember now.

                  samfishy, 13 Jun 2023does the japanese version have green line issue ? In Asian countries they sell used Japanese models. Yes, very few owners have faced this issue. Not even 1% as per the info I collected from social media, because I am planning to buy it.

                    Are there a specific region models that are affected by the green line syndrome, or does it affect all of them?

No one seems to be selling the Global/US ones and the non telco JP version. It sucks but I can't risk on the TW/HK ones and that the Xperia 1 ii are 2x more expensive.

                                  No problems with screen for me on Xperia 5 II. Will take it for a walk today. It appears that my initial camera judgement was not precise
                                  Also I've come to realize that the aspect ratio is more or less the same as on my phone (21:9 vs 20.5) So I might have needed to by Xperia 1 II instead for less keyboard annoyances
