Sony Xperia smartphones look so good on paper. So why is it that we don’t recommend them? Here’s our answer to that and a brief 2023 review of the Sony Xperia 1 IV.

I was planning on getting an Xperia 1 VI.
Gonna flash LineageOS on it.
I have the 1 VI, it’s great. No lineage available yet, might take a while
Is it bootloader unlockable?
If it is, try checking treble compatibilty.
If passed, Lineage may be supported.
Yes you can unlock the bootloader (not supported on the Japanese model and there is no US model this time), I’m not sure how well the camera system works on a gsi. On previous models they had to use proprietary blobs to get it to work properly
I got a 1ii and though LineageOS works great compared to stock, it still has its downsides - on the top of my head screen mirroring is lost and since LOS21 can’t make Magisk w/ zigisk work.
