Don't mind 512gb also...

Also the... "Free Gift Option 2: Newly launched WH-1000XM6 Wireless Headphones (top-up $200)*"... now sold out?

The XM6 is a huge upgrade compared to XM5

It has brand new noise cancellation processor they claim 7X stronger

They have 12 microphone instead of 8 in the previous model to capture accurate noise to cancel out

Music is tuned by Sony in house music production

But most importantly, XM6 can now fold and bring it as travel companion because XM5 is the only headphones in their whole series cannot fold and bring bulky

So if really for own consumption, better top up

but fans here won't be getting 512gb

order from shopee probably won't get foc 1000XM5. but i suspecting they already priced into xperia 1 vii.

anyway just curious where 256gb oem will come from, china or vietnam which we will know coming july 2025 once folks start receiving their xperia 1 vii

Just a few paragraphs in and there are already quite a few errors.

It's not a plastic back and the bezels are there for front facing stereo speakers and no punchhole cutout

Think he didn't properly go through the specs but focuses mainly on camera. That full 21 times zoom seems better than I expected, but if they put bigger sensor will be better though.

Sony is going to turn over production of its flagship Xperia smartphones to third-party manufacturers.

The company has been assembling its own flagship models and now plans to outsource its production.

Will it lead to more competitively priced Xperias or more fully featured for price bracket ?

Sony's Xperia 1 VII manufactured by OEM, future models to follow the same trend

Never

We are selling diamonds

Late Sony founder Akio Morita say so

But recently, their mark 6 model sell $1399 instead of $1989 when launch

Meaning most likely I will buy their previous gen phone after the new phone launch

Like when mark VI launch, I will buy mark V since they are the last model has 4k display

Anyway their other lose money electronic business like TV they all OEM everything except their Chip and tv design

Their PlayStation also all OEM too

Eh I never say considering leh. That's why I always told you all to start planning and saving for it early and save more, now with tariff it's even costlier.

Looking at the reviews it seems very satisfactory, many improvements (display , heat management , processing , stability , UFS speed , camera quality , speaker etc) over the vi too.

One true Xperia fan

Even me myself when I buy the latest Xperia, usually I don't buy the successor model to what I currently own
