Sorry for late reply.
It do have 4g calling.
I think it is worth to buy for 16xx.
My friend bought like 18xx few weeks ago.
HK unit. He currently has 1 software update version ahead of mine unit purchased from sony Malaysia.

No volte logo on the status bar… looks like he enabled it but telco not support. I dont really use phones to make calls these days, but I afraid that the imported HK set will have problem with local network for mobile internet just like pixel phones.

Er...i m coming from xiaomi mi9tpro.
The speaker volume is just around 50-60% of the xiaomi.
Lets say for watching youtube, i have to crane up to 80-90% sound volume for sony. Where usually just need to set around 50% on xiaomi.
Hope u get the idea.

is there other saving grace for this phone other than the battery?

Haha...i feel ur pain. The main reason i pick this phone was due to the form factor. My hand thanks me now lol
Maybe u gonna wait few mths for the discount from sony malaysia.
The discount also not much i guess.

Now shopee got discount. from 2099 down to 2000. minus some shopee mall coupon RM25 + RM120 rebate, total is RM1850.

only downside is it's somehow a 30 days preorder from Sony Center Sunway.

I'm using even smaller phone right now, iphone SE 2020. It does everything I need, only downside is battery endurance is saddening.

Saw someone posted a video of their 10 IV, noticed a few seconds lag when he browse the options in the phone settings, start at 0:50 mark. Is this expected from SD695 chipset?

I don think that's is lag, look like some loading there.
If u are in KL, can try the hands on at sony center.

no time to go to sony center... bought it anyway. ordered on shopee. hopefully will get courier that operates on weekend. fingers crossed don't get jnt.

last year i was really desperate for small phone, didn't know xperia 10 III was available and end up buying ipon for the size. the thought of buying this xperia 10 has been bothering me for the whole week.

I bought xperia 10 iv before that. Also hong kong version. And volte didn't work. I had to flash SEA firmware. Then only volte works.

However, with the Xperia 5 iv, volte works right away. Didn't do anything.

For xperia 1 iv, I'm not sure if it will be like 5 iv or 10 iv.

I bought direct from Hong Kong. There are many sellers on shopee who sell xperia from Hong Kong.

how hard is it to flash to SEA rom?

now i can see that 10 IV got price drop down to 1.8k , but i'm not sure the extra cost for local unit is worth it compared to HK set.

Anyone with 10 iv can share indoor video quality 1080p 30fps with hdr turned off? I watched many video samples and reviews on youtube but i still cant tell if the camera is bad or okay.

Hi, how hard is it to make volte works for imported japanese xperia?

Saw Xperia Ace III sold on shopee from HK seller, I'm thinking buying one. I just need volte to work. Based on Xpericheck website, Ace III is japan only model.
