just relise that how similar this phone's design compare to an s22/23 ultra
I took a look on new phones to replace my trusty Sony XZ Premium that's built to last.
iPhone 15 and Samsung S24 both feel smaller to me thus harder to see the details in the screen and to use those phones in general. Maybe the idea of making them thin is to make them easier to be grabbed? Or maybe if my phone is "premium" I should look into replacing it with a Pro, X Max or a Plus?
Is only an effect due to me being used to my XZ Premium? Everything after it feels small, narrow and tall!!!??

Sony should produce the same again but in a tiny size like a compact one.

manila, 23 Oct 2023This phone have most ppi in the world 807 ppiJust because it has narrower display than z5 premium and xz2 premium.

Economical, 19 Sep 2023Still working since November 2017! Lives forever. Sony is the new Nokia.From TV to Laptop and XZ Premium I own them all. My XZ dated Aug 2018 still working great but the with swollen Battery that pushed the back panel popped open and exposed the parts inside. With 5G coming, been looking at new SONY XZ line, but the odd size of new phones and price stopped me from dreaming about a one.

I know that there are more options, but I also can get a refurbished or second hand XZ Premium for roughly $98 dollars (excluding shipping and import taxes) on Aliexpress. With a bit more money ($148, again excluding shipping and import taxes), I can get a Xperia 5, but it will be the Japanese version.
I'm most interest in the video experience of Cinematic Pro for Xperia phones and want to do home-made music videos all "do it yourself" style, but that's not an urgency. If I can't get a Sony phone, I'll go with a Samsung S10e/S10/S10+. These aren't cheap here as these Sony I mentioned, but the price stills fair, it's easier to get them and Samsung repair centers still has extra batteries, screen and anything I might need to replace.

How does it perform nowadays? Does it heat while filming videos? 4GB RAM is enough?
I'm thinking about using it as a digital camera for specific purposes because of its pocket friendly size, but I don't know how reliable it would be in performance and camera, even with great specs up to this days.
I would be grateful if an actual user could help me. Thanks!
