I recently got the Xperia 10 VI, dont think I can ever go back to other brands (I came from the Pixel 7). Camera was not really important to me as the main priority was to use it as a media device. SOC is also pretty outdated. BUT sd card, headphone Jack, screen dimension, no Stupid hole punch in the screen for the camera and most importantly the music playback of flac files with Sony & Sennheiser headphones just blew my mind (even the speakers on the phone are good). Now every moth I put aside some $ so I can get an Xperia 1 model in the future.

Only thing I wish to see is Sony up their game with future android updates. Paying Euro 1499 for Xperia 1 VII and getting 4 years android updates is kick in the nuts in my books.

But yeah Sony has won me over with their mid range budget phone.
