Wouldn't it be nice if Sony made a compact version of this, maybe with 130-135 x 68 x 8.2 mm dimensions (while having at least 3300-3500 mAh of battery). One can dream...

      iSimms, 17 Apr 2021This phone is very compelling, but, This phone is very compelling, but, it's aimed a lot at the camera's. I don't want a phone for good camera's. I use a DSLR for that kind of photography. I currently use an iPhone X 256GB. I'm still thinking of upgrading to an iPhone 13 Pro, this phone doesn't bring anything new compared to the previous model apart from a far superior display from what I can tell isn't LTPO. Perhaps the Xperia 5 IIIII will change my mind lol

        This phone is very compelling, but,

In order to get familiar with them you need to use them but just spitting out some spec numbers and hearsay really makes you look bad and that's exactly how you look now, real bad. Go to your friend that has a digital camera and press the shutter button and see what happens once you do. Completely different than what happens if you map some volume key to capture the image in camera app.

Sony dedicated camera key has half press which renders the photo to it's output state before you take the shot, that way you get to see what happens without taking the photo.

                        If your selfie stick or gimble is so equipped , you can even control the shutter that way .

                          Anonymous, 16 Apr 2021Very bad experience of these very narrow screens. The text ... moreAgreed , it seems Sony is only selling phones these days with very narrow screen real estate , even on the one three flagship model it is also tiny in width.
                          Having the narrow display makes typing a big pain unless you have little girly fingers , not to mention doing anything in landscape that requires some ceiling room either almost impossible or just as you put it , a horrible experience.
                          They seem to have good specs otherwise with the 3.5 mm headphone jack , and SD card and good internal hardware and i would buy one tomorrow if the screen was a better size , but for many people that narrow screen will be an instant deal breaker , i know it is for me .
                          The sad thing is , most other flagships do not have the SD card and 3.5 mm headphone jack ,
                          sony had a good opportunity to corner the market with a top specced phone , but blew it with the narrow screen .

It cut off a portion of the black film of the display hence it would be visible under direct light. See S21's ultrasonic or even optical would have a slightly visible 'hole/mark' on the screen when its off. Sony would not risk their beautiful 4k oled display for that, as so on the little 5 III as well.

Its a nice to have a dedicated camera button, one of the rare iconic feature that Xperia's have since the era of Z series.

                                  Sony no more exist in middle east, at least in UAE no. This looks like good phone and size. But it is expensive. Unfortunately we cannot buy in UAE. Wish we had here.

                                    AlexP, 16 Apr 20211 III and 5 III have specific camera shutter button. Look closerDoesn't matter.
                                    Having a specific camera shutter button isn't a requirement as the other hardware buttons can be easily remapped to a camera shutter button.
