Quote from: Dan Zeigler on Today at 15:45:42The hype surrounding Sony phones has always been a mystery to me.  I have literally never met anyone that has one.  And honestly, why would anyone want one?  The price is insane and the features are super niche.  Is a business model sustainable when your target market is seemingly a couple hundred people at the most? 

Because that's unlikely the actual price.
The price is exactly the cost of the VII + the headphones. And since this was a bundle offer on amazon take a guess.
News outlets saw the price of a listing with the xm6 which is usually the release bundle where you get the headphones for free and assumed a 300€/£ price increase.
They didn't care that the 300 bucks is the usual asking price for these headphones.

Hi! I have one, the Experia 1 V.  Bought it used because I don't need new, but Sony specifically because it's one of the few brands that still includes an SD card slot.

Nice to meet ya.

That's so unfair. Why can't they just make a US version again. Or at least a global version with band N71.

After leaked Amazon listing, fresh marketing images have revealed the redesigned Sony Xperia 1 VIII in all colors. Set for a potential May 20th launch, the 2026 model faces controversy over a rumored price hike and the removal of the continuous optical zoom.
