Review on Smartphone Sony Xperia 1 IV 12/256 GB, Dual nano SIM, black by Mateusz Szlassa ᠌

Revainrating 5 out of 5

I am delighted, the product is really worthy.

In the year 2022, the only way to purchase this phone is through unofficial importation. The factory seal is broken when the box is opened by sellers in order to "globalize" the firmware and then resoldered, which results in the total removal of the seal from the box. There is no official firmware available for the countries that make up the Commonwealth of Independent States (CIS), but this does not appear to be a problem. The 2022 language can be found in the options, and it functions normally, including a speedy search for contacts using the numeric keypad. After establishing a connection to the Internet, a firmware update became available. The menu for the service does not include any information regarding the customization of products for the retail market. My XQ-CT72 is the white model, if you were wondering. In point of fact, it has a very faint tinge of green that gives it a slightly grayish appearance.

Pros
  • - Virtually unmodified android (in the unlikely event that somebody suddenly did not own a Sony phone). - An effective filter for preventing unwanted calls from being received (this is not a feature of this particular model, but the most recent version of dormouse includes it out of the box with no additional setup required; it also functions faultlessly here, although it does occasionally fail) - Finally, we added a long screenshot, which has been in Samsung for a very long time - the villi no longer get trapped at the speaker at the intersection of the glass with the body (everyone who has owned a mark II knows this). — Anodizing serves as the "paint" for the aluminum, at least for the white variant.
Cons
  • The case now has sharp edges, and holding the phone in your hand is not as comfortable as it was with the mark II. - There will be no official warranty in 2022; only the seller will provide a warranty. When the vibration feature is activated, the phone is supported on the surface of the table at two different points: the camera block and the corner of the body that is furthest from it. As a result, the phone makes a loud rattling sound as it moves around the surface. Another portion of the body that is almost completely dangling and rattling against the table Further for nerds (in the previous version of the review, there was a minus star for purportedly not working VoLTE at all, but a solution was found; I apologize if this moment turned out to be deciding for someone else): - There are certain issues with Voice over LTE, including the fact that it will not function properly if Voice over WiFi (VoWiFi) is also activated on the device at the same time, and the first registration in IMS services after turning the phone on will take place over WiFi. You can find a solution to it using any one of the following methods: - turn off Voice over WiFi (VoWiFi), - give Voice over LTE (VoLTE) preference in the settings, and - restart the phone with WiFi turned off (you can turn it back on after the reboot). - maybe the newest version of the firmware will include an update to fix this issue.
