Quote from: PhoneCheck on April 02, 2023, 10:44:36How is that a downside? At least Sony isn't downgrading it to 8 GB like what Samsung have done.

Samsung can get away with anything apparently, if it's true that the S23 is selling pretty well. But even setting aside the comparisons specifically with Samsung and its curious approach to upgrades/downgrades, 12GB for an entry level SKUs seems pretty much adequate nowadays, how many phones have an entry level SKU with 16GB?

QuoteBut the downside here is that it would mean the Xperia 1 V and Xperia PRO-I Mark 2 may remain at 12 GB for their entry-level SKUs.

How is that a downside? At least Sony isn't downgrading it to 8 GB like what Samsung have done.

QuoteThe whole series of 12 GB is good for civilization

That's "good civilization", I believe. Which, taking into account how terrible machine translation algorithms still are, we should interpret to mean that the newer phone represents an evolutionary step up.

The Sony Xperia 5 V, which could be considered as a modern standard of a compact smartphone, will apparently come with the same starting amount of RAM as Sony's other high-end 2023 Xperia offerings. A post by a trusted leaker has seemingly confirmed what an apparent Xperia 5 V Geekbench run had already signposted.
