Yes that is good, just wishes that they had better cameras like 1 inch sensor and way better zoom. The night video show that it really have problems with reflexions and underpreform. If the camera system was better i would be interested, but the phone isn´t good enough to buy for a Samsung S22 Ultra user. So waiting 1 more year to see if something is worth to upgrade to.

bro

Don't slap on a 1080p screen and call this a flagship phone, than charge flagship prices onto it. Whoever is the lead designer or marketing team needs to be bitch slapped for thinking its a good idea to downgrade the screen.

While it's true that removing the 4k screen feels like a downgrade if you're coming from the V like me, I wasn't happy the V had a 4k screen in the first place. As expected the battery drain is quite high and to be honest in 90% of the cases i can't even see a difference between 4k and 1080p on this screen. So going down to 2k is a no-brainer

I didn't understand 4k it still has buddy it is written

The reason is not that they got rid of 4k screen, but because some of them loved 21:9 aspect ratio, and most of them are shocked by the move not to a standard flagship 2k-3k resolution, but to a budget phone level 1080p screen, that is too low for a 1500 euros flagship phone.... such pathetic resolution should be on 10 VI or 5 VI, never on 1 VI....

​@glebpalchin6809 the 4K screens weren't even running 4K 90% of the time. If u check AIDA 64, it'll still show 1080p resolution rather than 4K on previous Xperia 1s

I agee and im still on my 5ii. They should have giving that nice 48mp double stacked lens to the 10 vi too and a normal selfie. And then with the 5 vi they should have giving a normal 80mm zoom lens again. Then it would make sense to me. The 10 vi misses the boat too in my opinion. Cant use 8mp cameras anymore these days. For the 1vi it might make sense that they use a different aspects ratio cause of the zoom machenism that maybe needs more space in the phone itself. But lets see. Im really curious of the 5 vi. I do want to save money to buy a 5 series again. Nonetheless that are still improving and now even give the 3 year os updates gives me a sense of "okay we are here to stay for a longer while" feeling. So that might be good.

if 19 :9 is even better

Lol

21:9 4K is better Sony downgraded for no reason it's Samsung and Apple need upgrade to 21:9 4K

@@thedarkknight1971 I also don't understand their market strategy. It is a costly phone. So reaching out to more markets and providing better software upgrade duration will help them increase sales. But I use it and find it pretty good. Whatever updates they published, they were prompt. The 3 separate apps doesn't bother me. I love the video viewing experience. In fact I watch all my netflix, prime etc. in it and find them enjoyable.

​@@LukasGroundsThat and the new battery tech, plus the underclocked chipset. Good for Sony though, these phones aren't meant for gaming anyway.

Oh well, it lasts twice as long as the S24 Ultra.

@@LukasGrounds maybe, but the OnePlus 12 lasts two days with 2k 120Hz, so there's no excuse. I think it's just the compromise that Sony has chosen. All brands make some cuts, and here it's the FHD panel.
