This time, Sony has made significant improvements. The support period has been extended to match the realistic smartphone replacement period, and the display resolution has been changed to FHD+ with LTPO support, which has significantly improved battery life (a wise decision since there is no content developed in 2K in the world). Despite being a high-end model, it has the second longest battery life among smartphones in the world. A smartphone that runs out of battery quickly no matter what you do is plain... and definitely stressful. Battery life is justice. Other improvements include a beautiful telemacro shooting experience, 48 megapixel shooting with the main camera, integrating the camera app into one, introducing a camera UI that is easy for many people to use while enabling almost everything that was previously possible with multiple Pro apps, and improving heat dissipation efficiency by introducing a vapor chamber. Originally, Sony's cameras are optically faithful to the basics of cameras. Other companies' smartphones have AI that adds selfish flavors, which makes it unnatural for anyone to take the same image. Sony enables much more natural and free photographic expression. I am very grateful that the range of expression of Sony's cameras has been further expanded. Do you want to express yourself through photography? Or are you satisfied with the fictional images generated by AI?
For a sane price I would be interested. For what they ask? And at that price, that stupid USB cable is slap in the face. No, fuck no.
Another new flagship, another phone company claiming to be "green" by taking out the charger from the box, and in this case the USB-C cable again. "Vote with your wallet" is useless when almost everyone is getting brainwashed that they need "the latest and greatest" without having most of the features. Heck, at one point they'll sell an "invisible phone" for a ridiculous price and people will STILL buy it.

HUnt, 23 May 2024Can anyone tell, where is it manufactured?Thailand good quality
So the camera quality and hardware is not on par with the top model i.e. Iphone 15 promax, samsung s24 ultra... ?
Looking at the reviews alone, I think it's about 4.2 points. The score is too generous for the reviews.

Simply not worth it for the price.. I get it that they target a niche market here, but still
Also the screen ratio is just annoying imo. Really makes it uncomfortable to carry in a pocket
I guess that it isn't that expensive. I just looked up the 1tb fold 5 On sale for...
$2 159,99
It'll be out of date soon, to be replaced by a model that's already out of date because they're planning the next one.

It seems that all that matters in this country is money and power. I was told that my elderly mother's I phone is going to be blocked by t mobile because of its age. They blocked my perfectly good recently purchased, through them, LG V60. My two other working but unreliable LGs, G8 with cracked screen and V20 didn't work either. They would be fine for about an hour and then received a signal blocking them. T mobile blamed LG, LG blamed T Mobile. Apparently t mobile updated something which made LGs incompatible with their network. After about a week and a half, LG sent out an update which you could get through WiFi. T Mobile told me that I can't count on this not happening again and need to buy a phone though them. I bought the 5iii before the LGs worked again I use the V60 for music and as a mini tablet. It's not comfortable to walk with in my pocket anyway. I went to a t mobile store to ask them about my mother's phone. My phone rang. I looked to see who it was. The clerk asked me what phone it is. I told him. "That's illegal. You can't use that." I walked out of the store without saying anything. I went to an Apple store to ask them about her phone. My Sony received a text message notification, I pulled it out of my pocket to see who it was. "Now I'm going to mock you. What does that phone do that ours don't?" "I shouldn't waste time answering you but it has expandable memory, a headphone jack, I don't need to use proprietary plugs and cables and it has something that nothing you sell has. It's paid for.". I'll probably have to buy something other than the Sony I'm currently using soon because T Mobile will probably block it, as well. This is what it's like buying a phone in the U.S.
