My Xperia is giving up I'm planning to get 1V and 5V

Where you guys normally buy from? Sony Center? Or should I go with HK set like Dual Flex?

I wonder if the 1V still worth over the 5V because this round 1V is 256gb only not 512 like previous one.

+ 1V don't give the thousand ringgit headset sad.gif

Guys & TS ChuanHong

I saw AP seller selling 1 V at 4.6k for 512gb version for this coming 12.12

Local price is 5.8k for 256gb version

is it worth to take AP with these whooping >1.2k difference in price? summore u get 512 version.. any risk to expect for HK set vs MY set ?

the only risk is that local sony team do not support HK set.. they dont ever offer repair service too.. other than that, only few pre-installed apps are different in HK variant.. firmware wise i believe are same across TW,HK,SEA.. 5G are supported as far as i knew...

true 5.8k~5.9k official RRP for local MY set currently.. earlier with bundled gifts like earbud XM5 which is cost about the same like HK price except different storage configuration only..

Thanks for the input!
I PM one of the seller they said HK set VOLTE may not be supported for Malaysia.. wonder how big of an impact is that hmm.gif

512GB at 4.6k is very tempting for HK set cry.gif

not really.. i saw someone shared before in Sony Xperia Malaysia FB, HK set no issue in Msia..

Bought 1 V with 512GB storage at 4.3k a real bargain I would say Let's hope I get a decent unit..
btw the absent of Vapor chamber is a bit disappointing although thermal were way better compared to IV

Anyone who interested with Ori 1 V they are giving away CH720n headset for 12.12 promo

Currently which device you're using? You got voLTE? Which telco?

My current 5iii also got Volte but no 5G, tried Digi postpaid previously and recently ported to Hotlink flex just got pink line on display last week after 2 years usage doh.gif

Before purchase I saw review says Volte supported, mixed feeling now hmm.gif

But do we lose big if we don't get to use Volte?

no volte then u cant use data while on normal call.

4G signal will drop to 2G.

example u sending video via whatsapp/telegram then got normal call such as from 03, then the video wont be uploaded, will resume after call finished and get 4G signal back.

very clear explanations. appreciated notworthy.gif

Since it is the same set XQ-DQ72 I don't see how coming to Malaysia suddenly will lose volte.. let's see when I receive it.

Just got my phone, got VOLTE rclxm9.gif
Like u said the build number without "A" at the back.

Anyway when I receive the phone although the display protector still intact, I notice the packaging does not have any seal compared to Malaysia version where we have sticker seal on top and bottom. And another thing is the phone 1st turned on already at android homescreen, I suspect before shipped they already turn it on probably to test for defect at HK.

Checked IMEI all in line and correct, manufactured week 42 which around October, considered quite new thumbsup.gif

Sorry I didn't know about dnb, because I check coverage from this web https://www.nperf.com/en/map/MY/-/10802.Max...7783205&zoom=13

Am I doing it right?

Starting from IV. HK and TW sets can be used in Malaysia. 5G supported out of the box.

Source? I owned two IV models. One HK, one TW.

btw with recent 5G activation for Hotlink through app, I am getting 5G on my 1V HK set thumbup.gif

Anyone with Xperia 1V experience this Bootloop issue after recent update?

The phone keep bootloop for a good 10 mins to settle in homescreen

I tried use Companion app to repair which wiped out all data, but still facing this issue.

when it manage to start up, I can use it for days where I tot it is becoming normal, going for a restart then the bootloop happened again.. hardware issue?

MK 6 already LTPO.. that's why battery is good as well as full HD+ screen.. I really can have 2 days battery life or 1.5 days minimum.. See no purpose to upgrade.. as main sensor same, telephoto same.. ultra wide sensor upgrade only.. last year 8 gen 3 performance very good. For those having old models is okay to upgrade. Else can wait..

And the untold upgrade from MK 6 is the LED torch got way brighter much more usable now brows.gif

I enjoy my MK5 but suddenly start bootloop even after Xperia Companion repair it still happen whenever I restart my device
