I still have mine
Been using it till last month
It had problems like being weak and some ghost touch but it was so beautifully built and had very lovely screen and very light software that even in 2023 it hadn't any lags on daily uses
Mine ia still in good condition and battery still works fine.... It holds for 3 hours of normal use LOL 😂 But it is a good phone and it made me a sony fan since but unfortunately i couldn't get my hand on a sony Xperia 1 series and now im using a motorola edge 20

People would rather have aesthetics over function when they could have both. They'd rather have a phone with virtually no bezels hence suffers from ghost touches and has to have a hole on their screen just to have a camera on it. Which breaks the purpose of their aesthetic having 100% screen, which is why I want the Xperia phones to succeed so that they produce more and be a bit cheaper. As they are the only current smartphone that has the sensibility of having ACTUAL 100% usable screen minus the BS of pop-up cameras and underscreen cameras.

            I owned this phone and the C5 Ultra, this one has much better design than the C5. The XA Ultra got stolen when I moved, so sad.

              Rakesh, 03 Sep 2023Funny how their phones still look like they are from that times with those chins and foreheads... morethe top and bottom chin are so small and make great for holding without accidental screen touch and attached kishi controllers, not to mention for the dual speakers and cameras without ugly cut outs and notches, i take that along with a 4k screen, expandable storage and 3.5mm jack, 🤷‍♂️

I can't wait for bezelzs to make a comeback. It gives you space to hold the phone in landscape and space for the cameras. It also makes the display look framed better. The Bezel-less trend is cancer.

                                        If modern smartphones had 95% head-to-body-ratios and had equal-sized bezels, they could have 1/2.5"-type selfie cameras, and potentially even with OIS, just like this old Sony phone. There is enough space to do so, even with a punchole cutout, but the bezels are somewhat in the way.

                                        I would love it if a company did this setup for their selfies:
