              does anyone one consider the fact that sony sell xperia phones cheaper then samsung and happy. sony left the Australian market in 2017 properly because of tax reasons and anti consumer time on supporting their devices however compared to any phone I have had my sony phones dont have battery pregnancy like samsung and if sony wanted to step up in the market they need to upgrade and battery to compete with Asus ROG phone line 6000 mah with 16-18 Ram they also need to consider making some exclusive returns of triple A games for sony phones only like resident evil and metal gear solid

                Anonymous, 01 Oct 2022This or the iPhone 14 Pro?The iphone is more expensive, and in my opinion if you have an android phone get this, if you have an iphone get that, unless if you need to do something that can't be done with your current OS

                  why don't you make the phone screen 19.5, like the other manufacturers, it depends on the aesthetics of the phone and it looks better before, they were much more beautiful than 21.9, the phones are good as specified before I was doing sony but now I don't like it anymore since I'm with phone screens like this, the only minus that I don't like about sony anymore

                      Alpha, 28 Sep 2022Right, because all other SD 888 and SD Gen 1 phones are ice... moreIm pretty sure all other android phone alternatives do worse and throttle more or overheat more.

                      Just look up stress tests of the alternatives offered in the rev.
                      Xiaomi throttles more, Asus throttles less but overheats much more, Sammy is not even worth mentioning in that department.

                      Xperia 5 IV seems to be among the best at thermal throttling in its class of android phones.

                        So better buy cheap china phone with low grade chip. It has the same performace with xperia.

                                It's a pity that Sony is not using Snapdragon 8+...
                                Can actual users verify the heating issues of 5IV?

                                      Sony phones are one of the best smartphones and I think xperia 5iv better than S22, 13 mini and many other compact phones. But it's overpriced. It offers almost the zenfone 9 but though it's far way expensive than zenfone 9. I have been using Sony but I can't take this anymore so I'll move to Asus

                                        Anonymous, 26 Sep 2022& the result is overheating & throttling. 🤣That's undeniable at all. My 7-year-old Snapdragon 810-powered Xperia Z5 running Android 7.1.1 has some throttling and overheating issues, though not as bad as Z3+ AFAIK as Z5 overheating issues were anticipated by using dual copper heat pipes instead Z3+ single copper heat pipe.

                                        And this happened again with the Mark 3 & 4 series on their SD888 & SD 8G1, which's highly regrettable, but with other flagships botching MicroSD slot, 3.5 mm headphone jack, notification LED, pinless card tray, and shutter button that I need from a smartphone, of course, my next phone will be still Sony.
