I was able to find a friend who will be in japan in june, so they can buy the 16gb/512gb model for me and bring it home.
now the question is... do i want black or green!??! and where am i gonna find a case and screen protector!?
ALSO... this is from the sony japan site.
The "RAM 16GB / ROM 512GB" models in Slate Black, Moss Green, and Orchid Purple are currently scheduled to ship "around late August 2025." Delivery dates are subject to change depending on the situation.

The 16 / 512 generated the most pre orders and orders surpassed xperia 1vi by quite a fair bit even though it's more costly. ( surprised those that really appreciate what Sony did) SO they are definitely going to be busy manufacturing

Thanks for the info!
No trip to Japan with other words?
Do you have a link to Sony Japan site regarding the "scheduled to ship"?
Since at least a couple of weeks ago there are tons of 1 VII cases and screen protectors for sale. I have already bought some cheap TPU soft cases. Have been using such since XZ Premium.
No trip to japan for me. But I have other options to get my hands on it. Will have to wait until August now though to get the duty free price.
here's the link to sony japan site for a SIM free purchase. if you scroll down, you'll see it in the color selection section. I just thought you should know since I know you placed a preorder with the site that would buy in japan for you.

I saw I can get the spigen tough case directly from their website for the vii. their awesome screen protector is much harder to find to get in the US.

that article incorrectly states that the high spec model has the same release date as the other models. I only just noticed the august release message yesterday though, so it is possible that when pre-orders started they intended same day release for all models and then ran out of initial stock.
Maybe if you preordered soon enough, you can get the 16gb model on release day while later pre-orders will get it in august. who knows. i didn't check every day so i'm not sure how long that august release message was on there.
it just makes sense to get the 16gb model especially with the new 6 year security updates.

finally i bought it from wonda mobile, the XQ-FS72 Dual SIM 12/512gb version from hong kong. Shipped today, arriving in 5 days. I too would have preferred the Japanese version with 16GB of RAM, unfortunately it was sold out and the waiting lists are very long.

awesome! look forward to your review.
where were you looking for the japanese version that was "sold out"? afaik, you can only get it direct from sony and they just have their pre-orders at the moment.

from some sites that buy it for you in Japan from the Sony site and then ship it to you.

they removed it from their site because the sony site was closed for pre-orders due to sold out

it seems to still be available for pre-order when I look at the sony site. I didn't and couldn't go through the whole process though because I don't have a MY SONY account and can't make one without a Japanese address.
anyway whatever. did your phone ship?
My hope is that they will have plenty of 16gb models by mid-august (ahead of schedule) to purchase at the physical store.

A day or 2 after my preorder went thru it was removed from the shop I ordered.
But a search for XQ-FS44 B3JPCX0 at JDirectitems shop states "sold out":
