It's a perfect phone for cat owners, S mode in camera and 4k120f video recording is so nice to catch my cat. SD slot allows me to put more than 15,000 songs inside my phone (half of them are 96khz24bit flac). Lack of the ability of DSD playback is a huge pity, but I solved that with a third-party music player. Overall it's almost a perfect phone for me, much better than 5 II, but maybe not for most people.

Now, after seeing what a disappointment Pixel 8 is, I understand why Sony decided to postpone USA sales :)
But inability to record 4k 120fps in a 48mm mode in 5V is the biggest WTF for me, I really hope they add it with some software updates later. And only a few years of OS updates is also ridiculous for such price.

Every other company provides 3 or 4 years of os update and even new pixel 8 series up to 7 years of updates... and still sony is so stingy and give only 2 os. and even funny they announce their phones with an old version of Android. Stingy sony.

Sony makes high quality phones. I just hope they will place the headphone jack on the bottom rail of their phones. That's all.

Is the microfone as bad as in Xperia 5 III? Distortion when recording video from metal concerts.

[deleted post]Why not try both keep it's pro flagships for the niche market and make the rest for the intermediate market (bit of both) eg: computational photography for quick pics and Manual when needed. They just need to increase their software support and advertising first, the 2 things that's killing Xperia right now. No idea what Sony is thinking but it's can't just do things like it's currently doing for long they have to change and it has to be a big one unfortunately change is something the Japanese don't like

I'm saying this with experience as a past Samsung user their software is what slows the phone down the hardware is fine but not too great
