SonyXperia 1 III - 6.5 Inch 21:9 CinemaWide 4K HDR OLED Display - 120Hz Refresh Rate - Four Lens Options - Android 11 - SIM Free - 12GB RAM - 256GB Storage - Dual SIM hybrid - Black

Very pleased with this phone. Very quick at loading apps and very responsive. Fingerprint reader I've found works perfectly. Has a headphone socket and SD card slot which many of the new phones that come out these days don't have. Having those was important to me. Already comes with 256GB . The 360 stereo surround sound from the actual phone speakers is unbelievably good when playing music or watching something on netflix, Disney + ect. Very respectable loudness from the phone speakers which was not so good on my old Sony, this one is much better. Battery life isn't to bad easily lasting a day. I'm still left with over 40% charge after a day of general use. The screen ratio is different to other big screen phones. Which makes the phone look tall and thinner. I actually prefer this, as it fits in to my pocket easier and is perfect for viewing films the way they're ment to be viewed. This phone is a joy to use. It feels premium quality. Very happy with this purchase 😁

My last three phones have all been Sony Xperia: Z; 10 Plus; 1 (iii); I remain as impressed with my device today (more so even) as I was with my other devices during the previous 12 years.The camera is second to none, as is the camcorder (I know, right?) and the battery lasts a full day, and then some.I have nothing but positives to report when discussing this phone, and I heartily recommend it.Also, given the phone's high price tag, for those who qualify, Amazon offers a reasonable payment plan with monthly installments. So, there's no excuse, grab your Xperia 1 (iii) today.Welcome to the next generation of mobile phones 🤟

Brilliant looking phone. Hardware exceptional. Sound system unmatched. Display unbeatable.All let down by the inability to link this phone to your PC through USB cable using windows explorer to drive the process. Insists you use an App to achieve link and then only allows you to transfer photos. No provision for transferring files, documents or music files. Device doesn't support WIFI calling. Nearly £1200 pounds to get a phone that is worse than the phone it was to replace. This is meant to be a flagship device. So close but in truth functionally so far from that mark it's a tragedy.Whilst the transfer of files apps and data from my old phone was easy, it's the transfer of files and music in the future that''s proven to be the deal breaker for me personally. Major fault with the latest Android system. Case of progress that just hampers the device's usability. Shame as this could have been a great phone.

One star reviewer because of lack of WiFi calling and data transfer between Windows os and Google Android os. Transferred data from HP pavilion to the phone no issues and WiFi calling with WhatsApp messenger with no issues. Screen is brilliant and definitely brighter than the 1ii which I also have. Purchased two of these phones for myself and wife gave the 1ii to our older children. This is a great phone I use mine for many purposes 12gb ram sufficient for multi tasking awesome portable music player, gaming great. Sat nav on my motorcycle no issues with vibration Harley Davidson with ram mount bracket. Dislikes phone very slippery I always use rugged cases for my phone's and gell case but if you don't definitely invest in one. Phone charges great on the wireless charging dock with the gell case on the phone. Not much bloat wear on the phone very minimal and very easy to configure with the settings app. Sim card slot easy to use, headphone socket, expansion memory with the sim card tray, fast charger included yes that is correct you get the charger with the phone. Accessories I purchased tempered glass screen protector, rugged and gell case, wireless charging dock-pad. The Xperia 1iii is a brilliant bit of kit it's used for sat nav on motorcycle, photos, music player via motorcycle intercom system,naim ups multi room music, Gmail, YouTube, video calls,sms and phone calls. Indoor, outdoor activities Sony Xperia 1iii brilliant device.

Superb phone ,when some settings are changed from default, see photo's for my preferred settings.I leave it on Standard mode as the the 4K comes on automatically for Netflix and photo's. Change the White balance from default cool to medium (which is the old standard setting on my previous Sony Xperia XZ premium) for far brighter display.I had to change both font and screen size from default to Large, for me the defaults were far to small .Dsee ultimate is my favourite for music ,it really does enhance all the music playback to sound so clear removing any digital nasties, Really important is to turn on the Refresh rate from the out of the box default setting which was off,this maxamises the smooth action and picture quality that this phone is designed for,but there is no point in turning it off unless you only want to make phone calls and not bother using the superb technology this Xperia is designed for? Lastly for me I leave the camera mainly on the basic mode settings for instant selfies and normal mobile user friendly action that I'm used to .The other camera and video options are top of the range for a mobile ,if you are into them ? Now for my not so good points ,it is a battery drainer big you watch slot of Netflix,Amazon Prime and tube ,but for normal Facebook and Google use the battery is ok .my big disappointment is the selfie camera is only 12mp,why on a flagship is this so bad ,even on my old Xperia XZ premium the selfie camera was a better13mp.Apart from that it's a fantastic mobile a superb size,very easy to hold and with a headphone Jack and SD card it's my perfect upgrade .one more thing is I recommend getting a Spiegen case ,a perfect fit , wonderful protection and a lovely feel to hold ,the flush cut out for the camera really evens and stabilises the back of the phone .
