SAm, 07 May 2023It should have a better design but we can manage I think the design is very good, mature, restrained and very Sony.

    No new SONY phones in 2023? Why?

      Just disappointed, returned mine for bugs and prox. sensor issues. Can't believe Sony is still struggling in making a usable phone. I have been buying Xperia phones since forever. 5 IV Overheating was an issue but kind of fixed itself. Proximity sensor issues is what made me give up once again. Better haptics and a brighter screen are what I wanted, and I got those with this model. Too bad it is plagued with bugs too long to list.

            Why Sony keep placing the 3.5mm jack on the top. If you're using your phone in portrait the headphone cable will mostly end up messing with the screen view, and also every time you've to put the phone in your pocket with a headphone connected the hand movement won't be natural 'cause you'll have to keep the jack facing up. Anyway, my big respect for Sony for keeping the 3.5mm jack just change the placement

              This is a surprisingly great phone. I made sure I purchased the right model number for my region and everything works flawlessly. The battery life is great. The icons are nice and vivid and pops off the screen. I use it for light gaming and streaming and I haven't had any over hearing issues. I grew tired of larger phones and I'm glad Sony keeps making this. If you're in the U.S. make sure you get Model XQCQ62/B.

                      From what I've read this is an almost compact phone with a camera app being too complicated for the average user and the issues associated with the infamous snap dragon 8 gen 1. I have work arounds for the above issues but what I haven't been able to find out is if it has a notification led and if so where?

                                      i would rather get less updates than sacrificing legacy features that a lot of people still using it today.
                                      you might be right about the price. but it depends on market. sony phones are expensive. its probably up to the build quality and their propietary features🤔

You can have this at around $800 sometimes little more or even less depending on market or if there's special events. Eitherway I don't recommend phones that have scamsung fabbed SD8Gen1 soc but get SD8Gen1+ the least or the much newer SD8Gen2 that are TSMC fabbed.
