Unfortunately, your voice will not be heard by them, as the specs for the next generation model have already been internally determined.
but as far as I know, it is likely to be realized for the first three wishes.
One more thing to add...

4K 21:9 with 2160p does not exist.
It becomes 5K.

Time for sony to perform big "UP" to 10 series. It is impossible to justify โฌ450-500 for 10v.
Just look at upcoming redmi note 13 series.
1/1.4" main cam, IP68, "1.5K" screen, 16GB ddr5/512GB ufs3.1, glass back.

It needs new soc and it needs 4K recording back. 10V new main sensor is OK and with ability to shoot 4K it will be decent enough. They need to tweak video quality on it as well. Ultrawide and telephoto are there for convenience and I don't think Sony should invest into them a lot. As a matter of fact it makes a lot more sense for 10 series to have 2x image crop off the main sensor than 5. 10V finally has a decent screen (but 5V now has worse screen thanks to compoment sharing with 10V), finally has hybrid dual speakers and battery life remains super outstanding. Keep it the way it is, add new soc and few camera tricks such as 5V bokeh mode, improved nightmode and 4K recording.
Side note for 5V. Every sparse video, and they are very sparse, about 5V only talks about bokeh mode 2x crop.
EDIT: 5V speakers are EQed differently yet again and vocals are now muted while bass is a lot tighter compared to 5IV. Display is really worse than 5IV, not only it's not as bright as 5IV which is not that big of a deal but glass coating has a lot more glare compared to 5IV. From what I seen I think it even lacks saturation but that could be the tuning and not the actual display feature.

Yeah that's not gonna happen. They just upgraded the sensor so they gonna ride it for at least another generation. Next year it's the soc upgrade most likely and that's about it. If they throw in wireless charging next year I would be positively surprised

It would be very good from them. Because 1/2" exmor T might challenge 1/1.56" exmor RS according to some weibo posts. So if they give it to 10vi, phone would improve a lot.

Gsmarena says apps read Oppo/OP cam as imx888. Wasnt it exclusive?
Who owns the imx898? Considering its specs , seems ultra overpowered.
Interesting to see the structure of imx888 is kinda different from one used by iphone 15.
Photodiodes seem shorter than xperia's , but wider.
Saw on weibo papersheet of 989. Nothing impressive, to me seems just bigger version of 766.

I don't think it really matters. SSSG will make tons of 888 variations if they are being paid to do so. Apple knows why they did what they did even if there is no benefit to it in the final result. Or there are some benefits to their pipeline or who knows what.
I thought 888 would be renamed as Lytia for Chinese ODM with, of course, slight variations. It seemed to me Xperia would keep Exmor branding while all others would be shifted to Lytia.

Looks like SS calls 888 as LYT800, while "Electeonics" still call imx888. Because doc from SS says LYT800 is first DL sensor.

Xperia has been overtaken by Pixel in terms of popularity (Google search) in Japan.

Pixel A is by far more popular than vanilla and pro. Difference between 7a and 7 are not much.
Now compare 10 and 1. The 1 offers much more, but at 3x the price.
How to solve this? Making 10 better, while keeping it below โฌ500.
How to make 10 better? Slap 6g1 inside 5iv. Simple.

Looks like all devices run on snapdragon. Last mediatek was Ace 2 in 2021.
Besides 8g3, I have zero idea what chips may be used.
Qualcomm should make a 6g2 with dual A720 + hexa A520. It would be awesome.

Is this real? Person claims 5.7".
If my math is not wrong, phone with 5.7" 21:9 would be like 14,7cm x 6,3-6,6cm (depends on how thick are side bezels). Basically as tall as Z phones, but about as wide as XZ2c.

6" down to 5.7" is hardly earth-shattering (e.g. see here). Down to 5.5" begins to make some useful difference in my opinion.

According to Canalys, sales between jul - sep/23 in Japan were 13% better compared to jul-sep/22.
BONUS: Overall sales revenue between jul-sept/23 was more than 20% lower compared to jul-sept22. Obviously 5v is failing to sell. Probably worse than 5iv.

It looks so much like an old Xperia. Can't believe Sony didn't own their design and release modern versions of it. To some it was uncomfortable but I think it was cool.

Cant deny XZP is stunning.
But I prefer the chocolate bar design , all flat like Z phones.
Zte Nubia Redmagic 9 Pro is complete flat, 8.9mm and no cam bump.
Sony should do same.
No one is gonna complain about 0,5mm more.
