Maybe some of those new superior 4Ah batteries might have two cells in parallel, but even thats unrealistic to me.

With a cheap controller in the battery, it doesn't balance each cell equally, so when a high load is required, some cells will be too low and won't be able to produce the voltage.

gadgetlover, 19 Sep 2019it is really a problem in my country too this phone is not available +1. The same in my country. Sony is not selling their phones here at all. Only parallel imported in couple of shops for insane price. I'm pretty sure that many people here don't even know that Sony still makes smartphones.

Anonymous, 20 Sep 2019There are tons of 12MP sensors. Not the same. Yes I agree. But the point is why these manufacturers purchase Sony sensors but can develop much better photography? I mean, as an OEM of sensors, Sony should've been better at configuring its own products.

dfgd, 19 Sep 2019this has changed already after they changed CEO... u r old news mateBut we don't see a significant improvement on its photography capabilities on the latest Xperias as Dxomark only gives it a 89 mark compared to the 112 from Samsung and Huawei. It's rather ironic that manufacturers like Xiaomi and Oppo has some devices that use the same Sony sensors but earn much higher marks in Dxomark.

VectorR, 19 Sep 2019There is a logical explanation for this. Sony don't want Xperia phones compete with their own ... moreThis is also the analytic reason given by some professional phone reviewers.

Capacity reduces by round about 20%. But internal resistance is another aging factor. Which is significant since battery will be limited also by a lower voltage threshold under load. Which is the reason why some older phones turn off while still showing 15% battery capacity.

sm4rt4ss, 19 Sep 2019The phone is awesome. But the problem with Sony is that it's no longer availible at the carrie... moreYeah thats the issue for Slovenia and Sony. I guess people here just dont like Sony anymore.. Also usually gets negative descriptions, not much of a sales for Sony at carriers in Slovenia. Slovenia os truly like Iphone and Samsung country, even Lg isnt popular anymore. But lets be fair. Sony x1 and x5 are really cool looking phones. I mean both reviews got 4,4 which isnt bad. I suppose people see more beneficial to pay 300 eur more for Iphone. Too bad really.
