Sony Xperia 1 VII will not help Sony to get out of its specialized market position-Gaya week voting specifies that £ 1,400/€ 1,500 is too high for non-folding flagship, especially with only 12 GB RAM and 256 GB storage.
Mark 7 offers a unique combination of features, but as a commenter points out, many of them are not exactly expensive – microSD card slots and 3.5mm headphones do not add much to the jack production costs. The same goes for a flat display without excellent or punch hole. To be clear, when some people really value those features, they do not justify the price tag tag higher than any folding flagship.
Sony Xperia 1 vii
Xperia 1 VII has some valuable features-that it is a variable central length telephoto lens and new up-altra-wide camera. But people want Sony to spend their time and money to upgrade the telephoto camera, not an ultra-wide.
Extensive Support Period – 4 OS updates and two years of security patches – nice, but it may be longer, because at the end of it, you have to spend more £ 1,400/€ 1,500 (or more!) To get the latest Xperia 1.
Nevertheless, the extended support mark 7 can help in the long run. In the comments many people mention that they are happy with Mark 6’s hardware – but they will only get an additional year of 3 OS updates total and security patches. This means that Mark 6 will get Android 17 as its last OS update and the security patches will dry out in 2028. Mark 7, meanwhile, will end on Android 19, the last security patch will come out in 2031.
Sony Xperia flagships tend to keep their prices very high, even after months of launch – until significant discounts are available, the next pay -generation has arrived or around the corner. This means that Xperia 1 VII may see an increase in interest in his life later, but early sales will probably be limited to the fans of the brand.
If 28% of voters who have voted in favor of Mark 7 follows and select the unit (now or after), this can be a little success for Sony. But after that, Mark 6 received similar voting results and it is rare to see one in the wild.
