My only concern is will it overheat in just a few minutes of shooting video. So far every Experia flagship overheats. I used to be a big Xperia fan and had been putting up with its shortcomings. Sony had finally lost me because of overheating. I'd been through 3 consecutive generations of flagships, they all suffered overheating issue.
Anonymous, 11 May 2023It’s not really that Apple imposed it on others, it’s that others copied because they are inse... moreNo one copies the removal of Audio Jack or cutting a whole notch in a display. That is not an innovation to be copied. Every company works on thin margins and such steps help them make fortunes out of our inconvenience. Apple has a hold over the market, so it does the thing, while others become assured that if people are not questioning the mighty Apple, they won't question us as well... That is unfortunately the capitalist world in which we live.
Hopefully it's not just the black version getting released in my country, I'd happily take the grey or white as I have 1ii model in black currently.

So when choosing 4:3 you get more vertical pixels and when choosing 16:9 you will get more horizontal pixels.
This exmor is based on 789.
This tech was announced in late 2021, still when it gets available to other (probably only in 2024) some OEMs will be saying co-developed with sony semicon.
😅✌️
Reds, 11 May 2023Actually, reviewers shot mostly on auto mode this time around and the shots are awesomeI can agree with this. So far, I don't see any review that delves into manual mode or Photo Pro app.

A much bet... moreJust because you're stingy can't afford it.
That's like saying millions buy new 2023/ 2022 cars are brainless or muppet. Lmao.

ME , 11 May 2023it is charged in 1 hour, what is your problem? you have a cheap Samsung?Don't spread misinformation. Sony never claimed it charges in 1 hour. 1 IV has 30W and charges in 1 hr 42 min.
You can tell they don't want to follow the ridiculous fashions and trends that exist today in telephony, good for Sony!!!
Skip this folks use that 1300 dollars and buy your selves a 2000WH power station
A much better investment, at least you can run your fridge for 24 hours and cut your electricity bill or have a battery back up for a power outage
Don't know why people still buy these crazy expensive smartphones
eMKejx, 11 May 202330W wired charging in 2023, perfect Sony...Google talks to you, even more embarrassing 15w Poe to be under the skirts of Samsung that you see is under those of apple

And it is somehow irony because optical zoom is used just for getting more details via optics and this sony zoom lens is useless for this purpose.
you have to suffer, 11 May 2023this would compete against s23 ultra, just sayin'2 words of a reply:
DEX Mode.
These phones are powerfull enough and functional enough to be able to replace a small laptop in most scenarios: but they lack 2 things: a keyboard and a bigger screen. And you can add that through the likes of a lapdock (for on the move scenarios) or a usb dock + keyboard and some big monitor.
However, big screen asks for different UI - windowed apps, easy side by side, some taskbar with access to notifications, most frequently used apps etc.
I am using my phone this way (few years old S9+ + NexDock most often).
As far as I know, Xperia does not offer anything nearly as useful, which is a shame. I'd like it to be my next phone more than another Galaxy, but I don't want to give up on using phone as a desktop replacement (I'd rather have a top of the line phone and replace my also aging ThinkPad with a desktop, then pick a cheaper phone and a laptop that - to meet my requirements - would have to be much more expensive)

Froggie, 11 May 2023Then wait for Xperia 5V.Judging by the previous Xperia 5, they height is still about 10mm too much over standard iphone pro.
Cpt.Power, 11 May 2023Still better than google tablet 15W or google phones 18W or Samsung phones also 15W. Rather ... moreyeah, you are right! I own P40 Pro 3 years, its charging 40W, on 100% (with inteligent charging ON which saving battery - the charged capacity is not real 100% of capacity battery) take 40-45 minutes. After 3 years of daily use, the battery condition/ capacity is on 93% of their 100% as a new. I think its not bad. But the charging power could be higher, newer models using 66W-88W, and also another chinese brands are on a hundreds... also when the battery construction is not standard lithium-ion, like ssb from xiaomi or another technology which is in testing process in China will bring success faster charging with higher capacity in same battery size. I see charging in Apple as a bad joke and their constant blocking of compatibility, even now I am speculating how to limit the regulation in the EU with USB-C
Im just still use my mk iii for a little longer. But if this phone had a better thermal management, i will upgrade immediately
