Anonymous, 02 Sep 2023That's good, but is there any drawing in importing one... more*drawback

    jommo, 01 Sep 2023I don't mind the 8GB RAM, that's plenty for most ... moreI just like to comment once on each article none of this multiple posts.

    I address your all questions yours and others here.
    On price the 5 V and 5 IV Launched exactly the same £849 & €999
    (You can bet the CEO at Sony will be getting a sever le reprimand from Tim Cooke)
    There is a 256 GB option
    https://www.gsmarena.com/compare.php3?idPhone1=12534&idPhone2=11838

    IMO it wouldn't any sense to me to sell a higher memory option in selected areas. Just my opinion

    Sony Xperia support memory cards upto ITb (as do the higher Samsung A series)
    The A52S was the last A phone to use 3.5mm jack,

    I personally don't know why say 128Gb is low and a deal breaker

    In addition to microSd support you have USB OTG so whatever stick size you have bought can be attached look I am NOT saying walking around attached.

    Albeit they are not as fast as UFS why would you need to have immediate access to 256Gb immediatly

    Wireless charging is MORE wasteful in power used than wired.
    There are both benefits and disadvantages to having an Esim, you have considered it a plus (as I haven't used one yet aware, if and when it affects me well.

    Sony have promised THREE ANDROID UPDSTES, installed and two other.
    2025 Android 15, security patches up to 31/12/2025

    I feel that some Android update do have benefits they are incorporated apps
    On security patches, Google is looking for flaws introduced, or in some cases missed. It does pay third parties to look for vulnerabilities.

    Those of you who state 3 years or five years is too little remember ownership of theyour Android Handset gives us power
    If say a virus popped up, let's give this virus a name Universe ICE, and infected your phone
    Dies anyone believe that Google or tour handset maker is just going to sit by and do nothing and then only seed the solution to those still eligible to receive security updates,

    The answer is no, not whilst Apple is selling expensively exorbitant iPhones.

    Your installed Antivirus will be looking for a solution also

    Overheating issues noticed in 5 IV have all been been eradicated

          djamesz, 01 Sep 2023No 3.5mm jack and no micro SD... makes it automatically an ... moreWell said, due to lack of 3.5mm jack I'm unable to buy otherwise ok phones. It's a shame they remove such important feature. Lack of microSD can be somewhat tolerated if 256gb exist, but definitely annoying. However, lack of 3.5mm jack is intolerable.

            P C M, 01 Sep 2023That telephoto should save them at least 10% of total cost.... moreI remember when LG did these things, especially in one of its best markets, Latin America, and look where LG is now, at the bottom of the dump... there goes Sony

              Still charging 1000bucks for dual camera and 1 year old SoC.
              Even Apple are more reasonable.

                Telephoto is like my primary camera.

                  OS updates?? Security updates? Any news on how long it will supported?

                    As I watching this phone's review I thought to myself, man what a great all-around package ! Untill I heard the price... A 1000 bucks is just too much for this phone. It should have been at least priced similarly to nothing phone 2 so it can compete with it. I'm afraid it will just be another overpriced yet underrated phone made by sony.

                      True about ExmorT sensor, 4K 120fps(!) low light:
                      https://youtu.be/D8S9jaOls_g?si=kIIfEP1e7pMGeKk6
                      Do not listen haters and managers. It is real nex-generation sensor sensitivity.
                      PRO-I m2 with 1inch sensor with that tech will be very close to 4/3 ~ APS-C.

                        Sony charging over €1000 for a phone with fewer cameras than the Xperia 10V and worse throttling than any other phone with the same chip 😂😂

It was already bad enough they didn't put front-firing stereo speakers on the Xperia Mark 1 series flagship back then. If this implied Sony should pull another XZ2/XZ3 footstep and follow mainstream market blindly, then no.

                                  from the specs sheet it has USB Type-C 3.2 port with DisplayPort. So does it have a DeX/Ready For like mode to display on a monitor or TV screen? It would be a waste if not, expecially at this price point

                                    P C M, 01 Sep 2023No telephoto lense, no buy. Sony have just lost its bigge... moresony being sony lol

                                      side bezels are big mistakes. sony reduces their chance of selling their xperia 5 v even more

                                        Ugly and tacky stuff, boring, outdated design and those edges can land a plane!!! luckily apple comes to show these manufacturers how to make a flat panel with thin edges to these obsolete manufacturers
