Actually I think a side mounted FPS is superior to a screen one. It's more natural to unlock on the side than the screen IMO
I agree, but that's where the tech is going to and we know that Sony is not willing to pay for the fps/power button combo license...also if the dedicated screen fps area is large enough that could be good too

There have been reports that with Samsung using an in-screen FPS, that regular standard not expensive screen protectors will result in the FPS not working. This has something to do with the fact that any tiny air bubbles or pockets under the protector will be the cause of this issue and currently the old solution is either cut a hole where the FPS is, stupid, or apply some special protector that is on the market which costs like 60 bucks.
If these reports are true and regular cheapo screen protectors will not work then I'd rather have a side mounted one.
Another issue is, if the screen cracks/breaks near the FPS, does it still work?
From what I read, it works with plastic protectors but not glass ones (unless approved by them) and same goes if your fps button breaks...things break sometimes, doesn't matter where there are placed 😉 (I don't use cases or protectors, never been a fan of covering up the original intended design)

I don't understand this, all design elements from last year are gone if these leaks are true.
Yeah, thank God for that. All the dumb review sites praised the changes which resulted in plummeting sales, since all the review site writers own iphones. I even saw a recent article about how great it was that Sony got rid of the side FPS, something every Sony user thought was a bad move. This phone finally looks worthy to replace my XZs!

All told I do like that the Xperias are now using the same naming scheme as the RX line of cameras. It's a nice enough foundation to build off of for future units.
I assume the purple unit we're seeing there is the flagship, so I wonder if there's a "Premium" variant yet to come.

Like Z series and XZ2/XZ3 combined. They're going back to their old roots.
I'd like to see more variety in design though. For example:
Xperia 1 series (Xperia 1 and Xperia 1 Compact) with a similar but more polished design of Z series as flagships, Xperia 10 series with bezel-less loop surface as higher mid-range, Xperia 100 series with bezel-less ambient flow as lower mid-range
-------
@vivftp if the base model of Xperia 1 (as seen in the render) has 4K OLED Display and an appearance that feels and looks like an 'alpha' flagship, they shouldn't announce any premium model since it'll be redundant.

True, unless they take the opportunity to make the Premium into a different sort of beast. There's any number of ways they could do it such as folding screens, super high end specs, bigger displays, superior cameras... and whatever else they can think of

I agree. The main thing about the Premium was always 4K screen and if that can be provided in "regular" Xperia there is no need for a Premium line of devices. Either way, it seems that we will have a new naming scheme so the regular/Premium divide is no more.
I must say the leaked design from few pages back looks great. I hope we don't need to wait for summer for 5G variant.

Premium evolving into a foldable phone would indeed be something premium.
I will be buying the new MWC flagship but after that my next phone could very well be a foldable one. I really like the concept and I will just wait for Sony to perfect the system.

Zackbuks teased the Resolutions for this year's phones. We already knew that the 5040 x 2160 will be inside Xperia 1, 2520 x 1080 will be in both Xperia 10 phone, and 1440 x 720 will be in L3, so the 3360 x 1440 panel belongs to....? 🤔
A more affordable Xperia 1 or Xperia 1 Compact, I suppose?

I wonder how many levels of approval Ambient Flow had to pass. I mean not one person thought it wasn't good?
That chain of bad decisions should have been fired too. After all a designer is an artist whose job is to defy norms.
I totally expect a more premium device. I don't know why, I'll have a better idea after we see the camera specs.
