Anonymous, 05 Apr 2023$1000 with 3 years of updates, this is ridiculous. This is ... more$1k my @** lying troll! 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.

$1000 with 3 years of updates, this is ridiculous. This is more expensive than iPhones. At least with iPhone you get at least 6 years of updates. And this isn’t even Sony’s most expensive.
This phone is desirable (SD, Jack, no hole or notch), but offers no value. Sony needs to get better at updates, and lower the prices. Offer something mid range (not the crap 695, at least the 778), and price at $500.

I got the S23 Ultra but because with a case it is too big for me to use outside on a daily basis, I got the Xperia 5 IV aswell now. And I gotta say so far this phone is absolutely amazing. It is super compact and elegant, obviously for gaming or photos, or simply beeing at home in general, I prefer the Ultra, but for mobile use - so basically what a phone is designed for - this thing is outrageously good.

How the hell did they put that 5000mAh battery inside a pretty normal sized and almost kinda compact phone in width and all that with a 3.5mm jack and SD slot?? Amazing.

Sony should improve it's os upgrade policy to 3 or 4, chinese brand like oppo is on 4 for premium now.
I like sony smartphones because they have clean and smooth os and sd card slot and 3.5 jack port.
They just need to improve os upgrade policy and fast charging and so many people will consider sony as serious choice to buy over some chinese with bloated os.

Most disappointing phone i have ever owned.
It has the potential to be great, but sadly clearly 8gb is not cutting it with all of the Sony bloat.
All the way to mid February this phone was not even able to run both browser and Spotify at the same time, instead it just killed the player from the background and when you went back to Spotify, it would then kill browser.
Now they seem to have gotten active media players to work at least.
But now they have apparently dropped support for WearOS watches, as both my old Ticwatch pro 1 and my new Ticwatch pro 3 keep being dropped by the phone.
All that because the WearOS app won't stay open if you do anything else than keep it open in the screen.
Sometimes restarting the phone will make it work for 1-3 hours, until the watch turns back into magic wand and vibrates like crazy because of the constant "i lost connection, i have connected, hey have these 15 already notified notifications again, i lost connection..."
Also don't even think about playing something as demanding as Pokémon go on this phone, because that is just the fastest way to make sure that your watch turns into that vibrator.
Also how come with Snapdragon 8 Gen 1, you can't even handle simultaneous Spotify playback and opening up Firefox, Pokémon go or even Google messages app without playback beginning to skip and crackle for a second.
I'm sure that with stock pixel style software, this phone would be awesome, but with all the sony bs in it. I would dare to say that whatever 150€ cheap Android phone beats this thing in terms of usability and stability.
So sadly I have to say that this is definitely not worth your money.

Alpha, 04 Mar 2023Go enjoy your 20:9 screen ratio that will have black border... moreI don't need scrolling in IG or FB as a already dumped FB for 10 years and IG never joined that. Quick phone call is all i need people wise and dslr photos go in email. I am more of an outdoors guy and even now and then meet people irl.

Anonymous, 04 Mar 2023lol, you don't have netflix? patheticThe majority of netflix i see here on my 19,3:9 S22 Ultra fits perfect. On Sony this content would be having left and right black area's.
Oh and for the occasional
