      Hi, today my phone started to drop battery incredibly fast. The battery is draining very quickly. What could be the reason for this? The phone just passed its first year.

                It was a great phone for a year, then it started having critical storage errors, boot loops, and application lag.

                Bone stock, out of the box firmware XQ-DQ54 model. No side loaded apps.

                Going to miss the camera, 3.5mm, expandable storage, and the high PPI screen.

                    Sony should just copy the nubia red magic:
                    1- make the camera under display
                    2- Add Alert slider
                    3- Move volume rockers to the middle left (Similar to Nothing Phone 2 & 2a)
                    4- Make a playstation app/interface + make a PS controller case
                    5- Make the bezels symmetrical

                      people actually wanna do more things on the phone than just being limited on using camera, which is why most people will end up with other phones.
                      I don't feel like price justifies what I can do with this phone, or perhaps I will...after waiting for few years until the price goes down to more reasonable level.

                        Using X1V since Aug 2023 and goes well so far. No lagging at all after 1 and a half years. Nice job Sony. But you wont's earn much if you made your product over robust. Love this brand and please stay strong.

                          This will be my last Sony phone. XZ Premium was a terrible phone. The Xperia Pro-i had nothing but issues. Now the Xperia 1V whilst I haven't had any issues, it's just an underperforming phone that had no right to cost the price it released as. Even bundling it with XM5 headphones.

                          I understand that it does have the 3.5mm headphone jack and MicroSD slot. However, the charging speed, bezels, lacklustre battery life and otherwise really disappointing camera. All the combine to make the phone really look like a 5 year old phone next to my wife's new Pixel 9 Pro XL. I never thought I'd actually be praising Google but the P9PXL smokes my Xperia 1V in every single respect. Not getting the new refined camera app the Xperia 1 XI got was also really disappointing and the ported version doesn't work properly.

                          It was a nice run I guess and the video recording on the Xperia 1V is absolutely ahead of every single other device in terms of video. But I just don't record enough videos. Who has time to go through them anyway. Also I'm just not happy with Sony in general, raising the cost of PS Plus and the PS5 Pro price was ridiculous.

                            I got Android 15 update on 30th jan. I've only noticed some UI changes but then again I'm not a "power user". Feels good to have updated phone though. Good job Sony.

                                There are a lot of devices that people are free to choose from.
                                According to my personal experience, midrange phones can last long depending on the model, usage and perhaps some luck.
