Sony Xperia 1 III

I apologise in advance if I have posted in the wrong area, I've only just joined the community.

I can currently upgrade by trading my phone in or without next month.

I've seen the Sony Xperia 1 III is due out this month (the 19th I believe)

I can't find a lot of info on what networks will have it and was wondering if anybody here knows if EE will be getting this phone?

I cannot see much on the coming soon page on the EE site.

Thanks in advance

@Andythebrave they haven't changed it, it's 256gb you can't get it in 128gb.

I'm surprised it's not been changed yet. Hope this helps 🙂 

Yes, great thanks. Ordered.



 

Yeah, I've never been so glad to be proved wrong!!!

Thought I'd have to buy a Fold 3 - but just received my XP 1 iii (and it IS 256gb - so that was a nice bonus!) 🙂

Glad I commented on here, as I may not have seen the XP go live on EE so soon...

(time to claim those free headphones!) 😄

 

Hope everyone enjoys their XP (can't wait to test out the camera properly...)

@OneManDroid I was going to get the flip 3 if I couldn't get this phone, funny story when I was in store sorting it out the guy kept trying to sell me a Samsung and asking why I wanted this phone, tried to sell me a Samsung S21 with a Galaxy Watch.. would of been more tempting if it was the S21 ultra. I'm glad I stuck with this though as it truly is a great phone, I really like the camera though must admit still getting used to it, I'm more used to the settings on an actual camera over a phone but I like it! I can't wait to get the headphones either that was one of the first things I sorted when I got in😂

Enjoy your XP 1 III 😁

 

@PaintOfCoat Yeah... I upgraded over the phone... and the guy said the Xperias were proving really popular! (nice to hear) - but I've just come off the back of the Note 20 Ultra - and Samsung phones, they're okay, but just a little boring... I guess similar to upgrading to the next iPhone every year (nothing much changes)... The Fold would have been something 'new' - but it had 2-year-old cameras on it... and it's time to learn a bit about manual photography (already loving the lenses and filters)... no gallery app though - WEIRD!! But I just love these kinds of quirks! Makes it feel fresh again! 😄

@OneManDroid That's good but there has been a lot of good stuff been said about it so I'm also not surprised. Yeah I traded in my Note 10+ I've had Samsung phones since the S4 and they're good phones but it's nice to have a change. And yeah that's very true yearly upgrades you don't see a lot of difference. I didn't like the fact it didn't have a gallery.. I like Google photos but I also love having a separate gallery I downloaded a few but yet to find one I actually like. I tried a Sony one but it loaded slow and stopped videos halfway through etc so hopefully there will be one more compatible with this phone, I love the camera! Not played as much with the filters though. Case is also arriving today, now to keep an eye out for a glass tempered screen protector
