If they manufactured 600K units and sell 400K units that's bad business for you right. Let them present their quarterly fiscal earnings then we'll know for sure if they made loss or profit.

Even the Galaxy Fold which is a niche device being a foldable, sold more than 450k units in total since its launch.
Tann Hauser, 15 May 2020No need for him to try again anything. As what you wrote is utter nonsense.
"Bigger batteries... moreMy ignorance?
There you go, higher capacity batteries with more charging cycles.

[deleted post]Did you even watch the xperia 1 II's announcement? He clearly said Sony's vision is to help people unleash their creative skills through technology. You know why this phone has 21:9 aspect ratio, 4K display, Cinema Pro app, Photo Pro app and full uninterrupted viewing experience? It just doesn't fit in like the rest and few of us like such a product.
[deleted post]that's possible. but in the mean time. fact is fact. sony xperia still on the market and sony is releasing xperia 1II.
let's save your argument later when sony actually announce they would close their mobile division

i'm not saying sony is the biggest electronic company in the world, samsung much bigger than sony, huawei much bigger than sony. but saying they'll go bankrupt because a chinese phones sell more that xperia kinda hilarious

Gganso, 15 May 2020"It's not about profit or loss" yet you're here claiming Sony mobile will be out of business.Well If it continues to sell less phones in an entire first quarter compared to some individual Chinese phone in a single flash sale, then they will choose to shut it down.
At the end of the day, it's business!

Anonymous, 15 May 2020Why are you hiding the name of the mid range device?
You afraid, you'd be called out on it?

On the other hand, an Anonymous requesting a certain OEM name is... hypocritical to say the least.

Well, 94 pages of comments at the time of this comment was written, and yet this before the Xperia 1 II hit the market yet, let alone being reviewed LOL. Proving how stabilized, solid, popular, diverse, loyal, and shock is Sony in the smartphone universe, especially some Sony smartphone that proven both solid & beloved by fans like Z3, Z5 Premium, XZ Premium, Xperia 1 & 1 II, even when the halycon days of Sony Mobile is already in the past.
And let's be honest here. Let's settle any argumentation, for now, especially the launch of this device is around the corner of the highway, in for and to be reviewed by tech journalists, to acknowledge how solid Xperia 1 II can prove, especially offering most completed essentially packaged smartphone in 2020, last seen in both Samsung Galaxy Note9 and Asus Zenfone 6 (3.5mm headphone jack, stereo speakers, no-notch / punch-hole interruption, a versatile camera setup, "optimized" big battery,etc.)

Anonymous, 15 May 2020You do realize if sales and profits went down the way they are, you no longer will be able to ... moreSony is not a small company to go bankrupt based on Mobile business. If they are, they would have gone bankrupt couple of years ago and not now. They are multinational conglomerate company. Even if they lose in one segment, they get income through other divisions. Just like how Ferrari (previously owned by FCA group) or Lamborghini (Owned by VW group) or Tesla (owned by Elon Musk) can run even in loses, these parent companies have multiple divisions where they get profits and loses accordingly. Even in case of loses, they can be saved from one or other divisions instead of complete bankrupt.
Why would anyone sells their product at a loss to gain profit?? Sony simply can't sell their products at the price of other chinese mobiles or a make product with lot of loopholes like chinese mobiles and compromise on overall quality (If they compromise, they not only get bad reputation for their mobile business but also to other segments). Also these so called chinese companies barely spend any money on R&D. Sony spends billions on just R&D. Assessing a company based on the sales of Q1 2020 is mindless.
