Amazon.com: Sony Xperia 1 VI XQ-EC72 5G Dual 256GB 12GB RAM Factory Unlocked (GSM Only | No CDMA – not Compatible with Verizon/Sprint) Global Version Smartphone – Khaki Green : Cell Phones & Accessories

Phone interface feels silky smooth. Performance is great. Screen is great. Very light comparing to S24 Ultra. The only issue, that it will not work on USA AT&T. Provider just purely rejects that phone IME. Contacted AT&T and they refuse to activate it. I could make calls, but no Data. So, be aware.

Was super bummed this model isnt officially available in the US, luckily this variant (which I think is the Tawain variant) works automatically with T-Mobile. I placed the SIM card in and able to get onto T-Mobile network without any issues. Although, 5G is not available only LTE to get 5G some intervention may be needed, but let's face it LTE is super fast as well. I did confirm the IMEI to ensure the authenticity of the phone. Picture quality top notch, battery from 6am to 11pm with 6ish hours of phone use in between battery was still at 68%! One issue on prior Xperia was the heat, I have not noticed this on this phone after heavy use. Build quality is solid, doesn't have that cheap Samsung feel, feels more quality like an iPhone build. Super happy with the phone, wife has the newest iPhone and now wants this Xperia 1 Vii after comparing photos between the two.

Got this to replace my Sony Xperia 1 III. The Sony's just have the best DAC and sound. Not to mention the aux output jack so I can connect it to my tube headphone amp. AMAZING! This still has the SD Card slot so you can increase memory to 1 gig for almost no money (I use 256meg mainly for FLAC music). The battery lasts almost a week! My older Sony only lasted about 1 1/2 days. The buttons and touch screen are MUCH more sensitive than on my older phone and I'll have to get used to that because I keep making errors by accident. Also the new cases for the phone, B0D5CTJL3M, have everyone talking that sees them.This has been a very nice upgrade to my old Sony. I've seen some people report that this phone doesn't work on AT&T, but it works great on T-Mobile.

I’m currently an iPhone 15 pro user, but mainly bought the Xperia 1 VI for a personal media player ie SD Card and 3.5mm jack (last of a dying breed) I’m getting into the hobby of being an audiophile. After playing with this phone..I’m blown away! The addition of the Bravia Ai just made the visuals and screen outstanding. Has more color depth than the iPhone 15 pro. I snapped a few pictures and it was on par with the iPhone! For the main part the 3.5mm jack lacks the umph. It was expected, but pairing these with the Fiio BTR7 DAC..man the details in sound was amazing! The LDAC codec is far better than the AAC of the iPhone! Apple Music and Tidal sounds so good using the Xperia. Instantly you notice the clarity and depth in the songs. The SIM card reader is very fast and responsive. The 120hz refresh rate makes zooming through your audio library a breeze. I Watched Netflix on the Xperia and I was very pleased with the audio and video experience! I have it connected to the WiFi and T-Mobile sim and works great! Highly recommend! Unfortunately I will not fully transition to the dark side (as of yet) I still like the apple ecosystem but the full customization option and quality of the Xperia got me thinking. Sony needs to rethink its marketing strategy and bring this phone to the US. Amazing phone that is being slept on! Love it!

No issues on T-Mobile. I also had it on AT&T and 4G worked fine though I wasn't able to get 5G working. AT&T sent me a text that the phone wasn't compatible on their network, but it worked fine. Overall this is one of the best phones on the market. The screen, battery life, camera, software, and sound quality are all great. The headphone jack output is extremely good on my Shure SE-846's. Also the camera photos retain that very natural Sony look (compared to most brands that are way too oversaturated and oversharpened).
