Back here again to comment on the lack of 5G mmwave bands in the specs. Sony's dev team needs some intrapreneurship or strategic renewal. Why do they even both making phones if they can't compete with the latest at their release times... all of the Xperia phone's body possess some of the sleekest styles. Android and Microsoft Launcher are both so pleasant to navigate and to look at. Subtle yet immersive touches throughout the UI like Xperia Loops, Alpha time-changing wallpapers, and even the side-mounted fingerprint reader are huge differentiators. But they need to keep up with the times more accurately. It feels like they don't even care to try, but I know they could gain a bigger following if they deliver everything consumers want within $1200 like Apple and Samsung. They are not far from being the greatest.

Daum, 05 Oct 2021Are you okay buddy? Can't you read? There's no &q... moreEvery single review or media article regarding this phone emphasizes thsat Sony is calling this a "Compact" phone because it's basically the Xperia 1 iii but in slightly smaller size dimensions - minus a few things... i.e. making it compact. So that is what the original post is referring to. But you are right... the word Compact is not part of the phone's name. It's merely just a marketing claim. The height of the phone throws the Compactness off, otherwise, width and depth are pretty decent.. Anyways, we should be ranting about why this phone still isn't released. :/

So far there's no issue in day to day usage. If you are scared of overheating why not get the Xperia 5 II which has almost the same specs but with the snapdragon 865 that stays much cooler?

I’ve got an XZ1 compact and it’s 15mm smaller than this - who the hell would call 157mm ‘compact’?? They must have huge pockets. I was hoping for a replacement when I heard the rumours of a compact Xperia in late 2021 but I’m going to stick to my old phone. A missed opportunity for Sony,

Announced 2021, April 14
Status Coming soon. Exp. release 2021, October 09
what a shame, announced in April & expected in October, why so much delay ?
why cant they announce a phone and launch it in 2-3 months?
Sadly they stopped selling phones in India.

Does it really have 1080p@240fps? I can't find that information from Sony's website.

Realme, 25 Aug 2021I am not sure with this technology but why the 12MP cameras... moreHigh MP like 23MP is great in bright sunlight but in low light, it's a noisy mess.
12MP is perfect in both low light and daylight conditions, not to mention amazing low light video capability unlike those quad bayer or binning sensors.

Realme, 25 Aug 2021I am not sure with this technology but why the 12MP cameras... moreThe lens size on a phone doesn't really allow more than 12MPx resolution. In fact most DSLR zoom lenses are limited to roughly that resolution (unless extremely expensive and, typically, large and heavy).
In the past sensors had imperfections and so they used lots of pixels and the software ignored faulty ones. ("Pixel binning")
Now a 12MPx sensor can be produced without faults so very large pixel counts are not needed.

Realme, 25 Aug 2021I am not sure with this technology but why the 12MP cameras... moreI have an old Xperia XZ F8331 that I keep as backup. It has 23MP not 32MP. Picture quality was ok at best ! I'm using an Xperia XZ2 right now that has a 19MP camera that's way better then my XZ's camera and the 12Mp camera on the Xperia 5 iii is supposed to be even better then my XZ2 due to it's sensors. Even the newer iPhones now use 12MP cameras so MP size doesn't matter. It's the quality of the camera sensors that matter !!!
