Excellent so pleased with the new phone it does everything and more

I love Sony products and wanted this phone but waited until they were released after the recall of faulty phones, but unfortunately AIMartz sold me an old faulty one that kept turning off especially when charging, wasn’t happy about spending £1400 on a faulty phone and also not getting a charger including but apart from all that if I can get a working model I would still buy one

great phone
DR I. –
I discovered, the day after purchase, that the phone is subject to a replacement program because of manufacturing issues. Search Google for “Xperia 1 VII Smartphone Power Issues – Free Replacement Programme Announcement” to find this. I am thus left with a phone that is highly likely to “brick” in the next month or so (other users have reported this).I recommend not purchasing this phone until Sony have found all the defective phones, and AIMartz are sure they are not selling a defective phone. They can know by IMEI number.I deliberately purchased from AIMartz to avoid quality-control problems like this, but no luck for me.The phone itself works so far. It’s a great device. Bit annoyed that the wide-angle camera is not as good as Samsung’s, and there’s no wifi sharing. But the sound quality is amazing, and the phone is very fast. Battery seems great, is it value for £1400? No. Clearly not given the replacement programme means I won’t see it for a while (how long, even Sony cannot answer).

Best buy
The phone is amazing with great sound, camera and display which comes with Sony assurance. The phone is light, the 3.5 mm headphone jack and external sd card slot is the great feature. The dedicated camera shutter button is nostalgic.
