QuoteThe whole series of 12 GB is good for civilization

That's "good civilization", I believe. Which, taking into account how terrible machine translation algorithms still are, we should interpret to mean that the newer phone represents an evolutionary step up.

QuoteBut the downside here is that it would mean the Xperia 1 V and Xperia PRO-I Mark 2 may remain at 12 GB for their entry-level SKUs.

How is that a downside? At least Sony isn't downgrading it to 8 GB like what Samsung have done.

Samsung can get away with anything apparently, if it's true that the S23 is selling pretty well. But even setting aside the comparisons specifically with Samsung and its curious approach to upgrades/downgrades, 12GB for an entry level SKUs seems pretty much adequate nowadays, how many phones have an entry level SKU with 16GB?
