The Xperia 1 VII promises 4 OS updates, ensuring a longer lifespan for the device compared to previous models. However, the high price tag of £1,400/€1,500 in the UK and Europe may deter some potential buyers, especially considering the limited storage options available.

While the Xperia 1 VII offers expandable storage, the reliance on microSD cards may limit the device's performance, particularly when transferring high-resolution videos. The camera capabilities have been enhanced, but some issues remain, especially with the telephoto camera.
The Xperia 1 VII offers unique features not found in most flagship phones
Despite its standout features like a headphone jack and a two-stage shutter key, the Xperia 1 VII falls short in terms of battery life and charging speed. The competition from other brands offering more affordable flagship models poses a significant challenge for Sony in attracting customers.
Would you consider buying the Sony Xperia 1 VII, or do you think Sony needs to reevaluate its strategy in the smartphone market?
