Whatever happens with this phone, I only have 3 wishes over the 5 ii:

1) keep the headphone jack. Please Sony.
2) Please, no notch or cutout!
3) add wireless charging! It's the only thing that misses the mark with the 5 ii.

    i dont mind notches..If this phone has one, it will be like under 152-153mm tall dimension(close to s21), more compact! This one too tall its like a tv remote control! Dont care if u guys hate me saying this. I talked based on my liking...not yours...bye

          Yeah, I'll probably also see if the prices on the X5 II come down and maybe just grab one of those to replace my S10e (which is frustrating me with One UI lately), kinda hard to justify $710 for a X5 II right now that in real world use isn't a huge upgrade from my current working S10e that I've had for two years.

          Another bonus for me to get the X5 II over the X5 III aside from the lower price would be it should come loaded with Android 10, and I could just avoid updating since I have also really been disliking Android 11 and what I see in Android 12 doesn't fix the things I don't like.

            Not enough difference and improvement from the 5 II, especially not if the prices goes up.
            At this point I'm just waiting for the 5 III to release so I can get the 5 II from leftover stock for cheap.
            Off-topic but Sony should add some optional stuff to buy like OnePlus does.. really disappointed from what they have to offer.

                    Love the Xperia 5 series. 6.1" is just the right size for one handed use. But why don't they include wireless charging on this one too?

                      Just get yourself 5 mark 2 then.

                        I am hoping that SONY lowers the cost on this phone. They could easily keep the great specs and offer this phone up in plastic, no wireless charging or IP6 rating, to keep the cost down. Maybe scale down to a 4000 mAh battery. Surely there's cst savings measures to lower the price.

                                  From your comment it shows how salty you are, not accepting reality which is basically, yes, brand loyalty. Enjoy your Xperia III.

                                      beep bop boop, 19 Apr 2021wait wdym? it says 1.1x optical zoom, how is that not real zoom?"real" optical zoom is kind of a loaded term. Purists say it refers to the ability to move the lens back and forth so that different size images can be focused on the same, single, image sensor. Most phone manufacturers nowadays use optical zoom to indicate that the focal length of a first lens/image sensor pair is "x" times the focal length of a second lens/image sensor pair which, purists say, is not real optical zoom. This is first phone in a long time where different focal lengths available with the same image sensor.
