the more i read comments in here, i felt like i live in different universe...in my universe, i'm pretty sure the pandemic still not over and the global economy already prepared for recessions but hey, who could wait to spend $1200 for latest flagship smartphone to be on the market for another few weeks/months? clearly nobody based on this forum

It seems to me that they don't really know what they want just something new. If you really wanted a Xperia 1 ii but got tired of waiting, surely you would then decide on something that was at least similar to the xperia,. But an iPhone because the camera is good. Seriously? Is the os not more important?

Exyvia, 13 May 2020The IMX689 doesn't have dram on the chip - you'll only have interpolated slowmo at 960fps.
... more-SD865 Doesn't need dram to record 960fps.
-8k@30fps already available.
-4000mah? Lol 5000mAh should be standard on 2020 flagships.
Sony Xperia 1 II is still 7.6 mm. Not a huge difference compared to other devices
Most of the 2020 sensors can be easily fitted under 8.5mm devices.
Besides, Most people use a case to protect the glass sandwich design(since glass breaks) on modern phones. The case evens out camera bumps.
Don't care about device thickness, I'd rather take bigger sensor camera, bigger 6000mAh battery and proper vapor cooling system over thin phones.

When then Xperia will be released it will be at a very high price, while the other phones are already dropping in price and new phones are announced. So every person who doesn't need something only this phone has or is part of the (compared to other manufacturers small) fan base will buy another phone. And that's not the way to go if you want to attract new customers.

... moreAnyone who has at least a tiny bit of brain knows no smartphone camera can be compared with DSLR/mirrorless.
Sony doesn't produce DSLRs for years. They only focus on mirrorless. Don't comment if you know nothing.

Rameyuk, 13 May 2020Please explain why delay = failure? It doesn't affect the quality of the product. It's not a p... moreSurely they can lose sales. There are already people who have bought another phone because they didn't want to wait for so long (even until now we still don't know how long it actually will be). And even among the people who want the Xperia for one of it's features will be many asking themselves if it's really worth the wait.
Also there are people who need a new phone for various reasons. Like in my case, after nearly 4 years the battery of my phone is almost dead, I need to charge it 3 to 4 times a day (2 times at the time of the announcement) and still there is no release date in sight. Not many people have the patience to wait that long for a phone.
You can see it from the sales of Sony, today they released an overview of the first part of 2020. Until now they sold around 400.000 phones, Samsung for example sold the same amount in just a few weeks.

Soni, 12 May 2020If we have to wait that kong..Sony phone Will FAIL badly..i almost feel sorry for themPlease explain why delay = failure? It doesn't affect the quality of the product. It's not a perishable item like food, where it gets expired. If people are set and already made a decision to buy the phone. It doesn't matter if it's delayed. We'll still buy them when it's available. They don't magically lose sales because we decided not to buy them just because it's delayed. The only impact to the business is just delays in revenue. That hardly means failure.
Logistics are all impacted here thanks to COVID-19. Sony always announce ahead of the general availability. For what? So we can plan our purchases accordingly, set up the right budget, save enough money, etc. If they announce a new phone and suddenly it arrives on the market, it's taken everyone by surprise, eventually people go to credit card debt. Not to mention that regulation and rumours start popping out early while they do their certification, logistics, etc. It's better to go ahead and make an official announcement to everyone what to expect from their phones, before rumours start to circulate with assumptions and false information.
Everyone these days should just slow down and learn patience.. Instead of feeling that everything needs to be rushed and get their hands on as quickly as possible for prestige or social media likes.

Telephone, 13 May 2020You have to import from another country. Make sure to buy from reputable reseller. Try to buy ... moreI think some retailers (private small-medium business ones, not big corporate ones) tend to import some phones that big corporate companies don't sell. Perhaps, you have better luck there. That's how I usually get my Sony Phones where the actual Sony retailer stop selling them. It's sad, but it's the truth. But you're getting the same quality phones as everywhere else in the world. As long as the retailer is a reputable ones, and not the ones who sell chinese knockoff. (Or at least, they admit to sell you knockoffs).

Xian, 13 May 2020where can I buy a xperia 1 ii in the Philippines? Sony stores here doesn't sell anymore.You have to import from another country. Make sure to buy from reputable reseller. Try to buy from a location where your country's currency (Philippine peso) is worth more than (or equal to) where the seller is located. You can save a bit of money this way (you have to pay for import taxes anyways)

My personal preference for camera on smartpho... moreThe IMX689 doesn't have dram on the chip - you'll only have interpolated slowmo at 960fps.
No camera can do 8k30p only 24fps
Lastly you're giving up the device thickness, huge camera bumps for those sensor size.
Sony is actually one of the thinnest phones with a 4000mah battery.
