Sony presents the Xperia 1 as being the first smartphone with a 4K and HDR OLED display with a 21:9 aspect ratio. Cinema ready? Well, there is more to the Xperia 1 than that. The Xperia 1 is a great smartphone, but it may only be ideal for a few people. Read on to find out why.

Sony's extra-tall Xperia 1 flagship competes with Samsung and LG on a spec-for-spec basis, but falls short when it comes to real-world performance.

With the Xperia 1 Sony plays to its strengths and, despite some small issues, the results are impressive. The 4K, HDR, 21:9 aspect ratio OLED screen is a thing of true beauty and makes watching movies on the go a best-in-the-world experience, for example. While with the flagship Qualcomm Snapdraon 855 processor installed in the heart of its hardware suite, performance is rapid and power high. Below flagship-level battery life and fingerprint sensor performance, as well as some small camera system and charging niggles, take some sheen off the finished package, though.

Sony’s path through the smartphone market over the last decade has been full of peaks and valleys. I hoped the Xperia 1 would represent one of those peaks. Sadly, it’s somewhere halfway up (or down) the hill. The phone’s hardware is outstanding where quality is concerned. You’ve got nearly everything you could want: Gorilla Glass 6, metal frame, waterproof housing, 4K screen, triple cameras, and more. The Xperia 1 falls short in a few places, including battery life, camera performance, and general usability thanks to the odd shape. Further, there’s not enough 21:9 content (both videos and apps) to make sense of the stretched aspect ratio. Would I recommend this phone? Only to people specifically looking for something unique, or those who place an emphasis on media consumption. The $949 price tag is simply too high for what the phone delivers.

Let’s face it, Sony has had a hard time in the mobile space. When they left the Southeast Asian market awhile ago, I didn’t think they’d be back–at least, not so soon. But it looks like they’re not done yet because the company is back with a brand new flagship smartphone, and it’s going all in on being a cinematic experience.

Otherwise, without a carrier-supported payment plan, you’re on your own to fund the pricey device. Does the Xperia 1 deliver a vastly better experience than the Samsung Galaxy S10 Plus or Pixel 3 XL? Not really, but at least it’s unique.

Sony has clearly invested a lot in the Xperia 1’s audio feature set. Unfortunately, that investment doesn’t shine through when using the device to play music or movies through its speakers at the default settings. (Users should definitely experiment with enabling the phone’s Dolby Atmos functionality.) However, clarity is good even in default mode, which gives it a leg up for gamers. For those recording videos or audio with the phone, the news is better, as the Xperia 1 holds its own in all our use cases.

The Xperia 1 comes with a few pretty unique movie features, including a 21:9 aspect ratio, 24fps recording, and color management presets, which were not assessed under our test protocol. If you think those features could help lift your mobile videography to the next level, the Xperia 1 might well be worth a closer look. That said, the Sony Xperia 1’s image quality performance is surprisingly on par only with older or less expensive smartphones, demonstrating that camera software must be also be carefully tuned in order to optimize hardware performance and successfully compete in the high-end smartphone market.

Aside from that, it’s been a joy. The screen ratio makes certain aspects of usage great. For instance, watching movies and playing games that are sized for 21:9 look amazing. Also reading news or blogs is nicer too because there’s less scrolling involved as you’ll see more of the page. I’m also a huge fan of the dual speakers. It provides just the right amount of loudness for my needs and when I need to get more intimate with my movies or music, I just use my headphones.

Since this is not a full review, these aren’t my final thoughts and this might change later down the line. For now, this is how I feel after a few days of usage. For starters, I’m really digging the extra tall and narrow design of the Xperia 1. The narrowness makes it easier to hold and the tall screen means I can actually see more when I’m reading news or info on a website. It however can make one handed use a little tricky with things up top, but I can live with that.

Despite a few niggles, including a slightly sub-par battery life, Sony’s latest flagship is a top-drawer affair that more than earns its place amongst the likes of the Samsung Galaxy S10+ and the Huawei P30 Pro.

Overall, I’m not convinced by the Xperia 1. I started this page by mentioning it’s a $949 phone, and at that price level I’m expecting excellence at most aspects of the phone. Unfortunately, the new Sony phone doesn’t showcase that. The screen and form-factor great, however is calibration issues, its higher power draw resulting in worse off battery performance, and the phone’s many problems with the cameras just don’t make it appealing as a purchase. This is especially in the face of the competition released earlier in the year which has seen larger price drops with which you’ll definitely end up as getting more value out of your purchase. Sony’s product development needs to focus on actually delivering a more solid and robust phone, rather than trying to upsell it via marketing buzz-words – here’s to hoping they’ll manage to get there.

The Xperia 1 has a near-perfect display, but its size makes the phone feel (and look) bizarre. If the company ditched the thick bezels around the camera and chin of the device, it could maintain that super-wide aspect ratio while looking more modern.

At the end of it all, the Xperia 1 is a powerful device, and I have to give Sony credit for bucking just about every smartphone trend out there to build something truly unique. But that uniqueness comes at a cost: Between its oddball screen and some puzzling decisions, this just isn't a sensible purchase for most people. We're all spoiled for choice when it comes to expensive flagship devices, and while the Xperia 1 definitely has its charms, they don't quite make sense for the masses.

As I said in my full Sony Xperia 1 review, I’m stunned at how poorly the Xperia 1’s camera performs. Not only is it not up to snuff when compared to other flagships, such as the Samsung Galaxy S10, Huawei P30 Pro, and Google Pixel 3 XL, it doesn’t even compare to the budget Google Pixel 3a XL. It’s hard to recommend a $949 phone when a $479 phone beats the snot out of it in the core category of photography. Bottom line, if you thought Sony’s adoption of the triple-camera setup would lead to a dramatic improvement in imaging quality, I’m here to tell you that’s not the case.

An interesting phone with a 21:9 aspect ratio 4K display that lends itself watching movies, which is where this Xperia sets itself apart from the masses. There's plenty of power and enough elsewhere to keep this phone competitive, but the camera app is muddled and in general this Sony struggles to lift itself to the top flight of flagship phone pile.

The Xperia 1 resolves those problems — mostly. The software is significantly improved, even with misses like Side Sense. The cameras use the branding and even some of the tech of its mirrorless cameras, but they aren’t the best you can get. Sony’s design is still great and, compared to other massive phones, much easier to hold in one hand. I really do like this form factor, and I’m glad Sony is giving it a shot.

The Xperia 1 nails all of the essentials, with blisteringly fast performance and three excellent cameras. The extra-tall display takes some getting used to, but it makes widescreen movies more immersive, and its 4K HDR technology is unmatched.

Sony's mobile business is supposedly headed in a new direction, but one crucial aspect doesn't seem to have changed – pricing. In the US, the Sony Xperia 1 can be only pre-ordered for $949 on Amazon, and it won't ship until July 12. A Galaxy S10+ costs $50 less and you can have one today, either unlocked or through a carrier. Had Sony bundled it with a pair of premium earphones, the Xperia 1 would have been a great deal, but as things stand right now, it's going to be another tough sell for a Sony flagship in the US. And this is unfortunate at a point in time when Sony desperately needs a phone that sells.

The Sony Xperia 1 is a fitting flagship for 2019. It has one of the best displays ever on smartphone, much improved rear cameras, slick performance and attractively clean software. If you value the unique display above features like face unlock or wireless charging, then it's a good fit for you.

The Xperia 1 has one-of-a-kind 4K display, HDR OLED at that. The triple camera, the stereo speakers, latest Snapdragon chip, stylish design, and the IP68 ingress protection all add to an overall great package. The camera experience is a little bit rough around the edges but finally on par with the competition in the things that matter. Battery life could have been better, but we guess that the 4K screen needs its juice. We have no doubts anyone who buys the Xperia 1 will be as happy as we are with it. The Xperia 1 is priced like just about any other flagship smartphone at launch - it's not cheap by any margin but its price will only get better from here on making it a better deal down the line. But even as things stand right now, we think it deserves serious consideration by anyone looking for a high-end smartphone.

The Xperia 1 is a supermodel smartphone. After a week reviewing it, more squat phones just feel a bit weird. Its premium design and lithe frame shine, the screen is seriously good, there’s a clean interface, a great stills camera and it’s class-leading when it comes to video capabilities. It’s both the most expensive and the best Sony phone to date. Having said that, in the face of stiff competition from more affordable phones like the OnePlus 7 Pro and Honor 20 Pro, while it’s excellent, the Xperia 1 isn’t necessarily good value and its oddball size won't appeal to everyone. So if you’re a mobile gamer, watch more 16:9 shows than 21:9 movies, and care more about stills more than video, then there are other better phones out there that cost less. If, on the other hand, you’re a video enthusiast, edit a lot of documents, watch films when out and about, need a good camera and split-screen multitask a lot, this is cream of the crop.

This could – as we always seem to write – be Sony’s best phone yet. It most likely is. But we are still curious as to who this phone will appeal to. Sony doesn’t have the brand clout or marketing budget of Samsung so we do respect it for trying something different to appeal to niche buyers. But it seems like it’s fully slipped into the rut that LG is in, redesigning its phones twice a year to try and hang on to dwindling sales. It’s frustrating to us, then, that Sony had an event where loads of tech journalists could only look at a specs sheet and not even unlock the phone.

The Sony Xperia 1 is a little different and we love that about it. In a market where many flagship smartphones take on similar forms, it's good to see some variation.

At this point of concluding the first impression and hands-on experience, our boy, Jim ended this note with a heavy heart because he's a Sony fanboy (lol). But I digress, Sony smartphones have been a huge part of Malaysia, most of us grew up using at least one of Sony's mobile phones (mine was one the Cybershot series, loved it). Starting from this year onwards, we may no longer see any future Sony phone launches in Malaysia but there are still some stocks left according to their website.

On one hand, it's kind of hard to be too surprised about Sony's new device announcements, purely on the grounds of the avalanche of leaks that preceded the MWC keynote. Then again, many of said rumors turned out to be nothing more than smoke and mirrors. Whether intentional or not on Sony's part, all that matters is that the devices the Japanese giant did unveil at the Barcelona event still managed to turn quite a few heads.

The Sony Xperia 1 II comes with the Cinema Pro application, which we already saw in other smartphones from Sony, and a new special camera application. It brings features found in Sony’s DSLR cameras to the Xperia 1 II, which should make photography enthusiasts particularly excited. Read our review to learn whether or not the 1200-Euro (~$1420) smartphone provides enough value in day-to-day use to justify its price tag.

Returning to the Sony Xperia 1 II has been a bitter-sweet experience. I still really like the phone but, despite numerous updates, the handset has the same niggling problems as 12 months ago. Of course, Sony isn’t going to pay much attention to my personal quibbles. But I am left wondering about its priorities after it chose to add niche new features in lieu of addressing quality of life improvements. The phone still fits the bill for Sony’s target audience, but it’s a tougher sell to the broader market. I’m excited to see if Sony can perfect the formula with the Xperia 1 III. The handset offers faster charging, dual-SIM 5G, a cutting-edge zoom camera, and the latest processing technology. Although this package might end up costing even more than the previous generation, given the lack of last-gen discounts, I recommend seeing what Sony’s 2021 flagship costs before picking up the older 1 II.

Sony has made great strides with the Xperia 1 II, delivering a phone that’s more appealing to demanding photographers than its predecessor. It is photographically competent and capable of recording pleasing video, but it’s also in the very highest price tier for smartphones, and competition at these rarified four-figure heights is fierce. Most of the top-end phones we’ve tested outperform the Xperia 1 II, and there are even some mid-range handsets that approach its numbers. Those who appreciate other aspects of Sony’s approach to phone design will be pleased that the Xperia 1 II provides a significant upgrade over its predecessor’s imaging capabilities, but buyers who prioritize camera performance should consider alternatives before committing.

Sony made unusual (but not necessarily bad) choices with the Xperia 1 II's hardware but if you're after an entertainment powerhouse and can find the phone at a lower price than its RRP, this is a superb way to enjoy media on-the-go to the fullest.

Sony has priced the Xperia 1 II at $1,200, which is on par with the excellent Samsung Galaxy S20+, and only slightly less than the incredible Samsung Galaxy Note20 Ultra. However, because of Sony’s track record when it comes to making amazing cameras and headphones, sound and photography aficionados should consider the smartphone — its audio jack and camera experience are worth it.

The Sony Xperia 1 II is the full package as smartphones go, but it isn’t for everyone.

Considering the fact we are in the middle of a global pandemic it makes me question the £1,099 price tag. However, this phone has every kind feature you would expect for a phone this price such as the Qualcomm snapdragon 865, IP68 rated, 21:9 4K OLED display and a very good camera that if you are into your photography, makes it a must.

The Sony Xperia 1 II took some big steps forward over its predecessor, the Sony Xperia 1, but its overall average score is a bit of a disappointment for a flagship phone. Bright spots include great performance for artifacts in both playback and recording. It’s worth noting again that when switched on, the Dolby Atmos boosts the timbre performance across frequencies and improves dynamics, with better performance on short transients, punch, and bass precision. As a recording device, the Xperia 1 II earned better marks, especially in life video, with good timbre performance in high-SPL scenarios.

The Sony Xperia 1 II is a wonderful smartphone. While Sony put a lot of focus into the Alpha-like camera experience, the rest of the phone is great enough to make up for the "just fine" camera quality.

Sony's flagship Xperia is the phone of two halves: the front half is pretty good with that great display and wonderful speakers, the rear half is pretty weak with a disjointed and messy camera experience.

We really enjoyed our time with the Xperia 1 II, and we don’t want Sony to stop making phones the "Sony" way. There’s absolutely room in the market for niche products like this, but these devices need to nail the essentials first (like 5G), then deliver something truly special to justify the additional cost.

The $1,200 Xperia 1 ii is many things, but a crowd-pleaser it is not. In fact, its charm derives from how niche it is. It has a screen meant for movie nerds. Its cameras are meant for film and photo nerds. And thankfully, it’s more than solid in all the other departments that matter, like performance, battery life, and overall software quality. Ultimately, it's that unabashed geekery that will either win you over or drive you away. For people who relish the thrill of laboring over camera settings to get just the right photo or snippet of footage, the Xperia 1 ii scratches that itch like no other phone.

Despite all of that, though, I can’t recommend the Xperia 1 II to any but the most devoted Sony world devotee. The high $1,200 price combined with the strange lack of 5G in the US makes it a confusing device at best. Phones that include now-standard flagship features like high refresh rate screens and stronger auto-mode photos can be had for hundreds less. And if you are a Sony camera world citizen, wait to see what the upcoming Xperia Pro can do. (It will have HDMI-in, so you can use it as a proper monitor on a standalone camera.)

For a company that produces the sensors used in many smartphones, in addition to their own revolutionary mirrorless and cinema camera, Sony has never produced a standout phone camera.The Xperia 1 II aims to change that, feeling sometimes more like a camera that can make calls than a phone with a camera. The Xperia 1 II is firmly aimed at enthusiasts, enabling granular control for both still and videos. We found it could achieve incredible results, but only with some work. The iPhone 11 or Pixel 4 will deliver better images from a quick snapshot, but with some effort and care, the Xperia 1 II can take remarkable photos.

When we reviewed the Xperia 1 last year, we didn't love it. There was a lot that was unique about the phone, but it felt a little too specific and niche to ever find a wide audience. We were right, but Sony has doubled down on the formula with the Xperia 1 II, and we've got to admit, they know what they're doing.

The Sony Xperia 1 II, like most Sony flagships before it, impresses in a lot of key areas – the camera, the display, the speed. If you like the design, and if you can afford it, then the Sony Xperia 1 II might be worth investing in as your next high-powered flagship phone.

At the end of the day, the Sony Xperia 1 II excels at being a Sony: stylish, often with a surprisingly great camera, yet at the same time it never quite reaches out to be something better than a good camera in a sleek design. Sony seems to have abandoned all efforts to improve upon the stock Android experience, it doesn’t have any of the exciting new features in the Android world like fast refresh rates, fast charging, or long range zoom. US shoppers would also be disappointed to find support for 5G bands missing (the device will support Europe and Japan 5G bands). And it costs a whopping $1,200. Finally, the phone doesn’t go on sale until July 24th, 2020, some three months after all other Android phones have arrived.

Sony. It’s the company that builds the sensors for almost half the world’s smartphones, and it makes nearly half of all mirrorless cameras sold – including the camera I use to shoot every MrMobile video. It’s also the company that for years has failed to capitalize on these strengths in its mobile division. In preparing for this video I went back and watched seven years of my own Sony smartphone reviews, from my days at Pocketnow to last year’s Xperia 1 video. They all say pretty much the same thing: Sony’s phones are very good, even great at points, but they’re too expensive, and not always for the right reasons.

It packs a nice design, plenty of clever touches (headphone port on a flagship feels almost novel at the point) and great software. Save for the £1000/$1000 price, this is Sony’s best phone for a number of years.

Combines a cinephile-grade display with camera smarts taken straight from Sony's Alpha division to great effect. Outright image quality might not be the best, but this feature-packed flagship is still one of the most photographer-friendly handsets around.

What we're saying is that the Xperia 1 II isn't great value at its projected retail price, and that prevents it from getting an all-out recommendation. What it is, on the other hand, is a great phone for Sony fans or for anyone else with a money-is-no-object attitude looking for one of the best camera systems in a smartphone. Imagine they had released it in March.

The third generation of Sony's flagship smartphone is also supposed to convince mainly with features for professional photographers. But the Sony-typical design and the high-resolution screen could also make it attractive for other users.

The Sony Xperia 1 III’s poor stamina is hugely disappointing because it’s otherwise a truly exceptional handset. Mostly unblemished in every other area, and truly exceptional in others, the Xperia 1 III is a solid indication that Sony absolutely knows what it’s doing in the mobile space. All Sony needs to do now is swallow its pride, ask for less than what Samsung and Apple are currently charging and ditch the pointless 4K display in favour of better battery life. If they can do those things, there’s nothing standing in the way of its phones standing side by side with the best phones around. For the time being, however, the Sony Xperia 1 III is simply too expensive, and battery life is too short-lived, to recommend.

I like the Sony Xperia 1 III, I really do, but $1,299 makes it one of the most expensive flagships to ever grace the market. Granted, the handset offers plenty of storage, a unique camera system, and one of the best displays in the business, not forgetting its assortment of charging, multimedia, and other technologies. But at this price point, you have to compare the phone to its competitors, and it’s missing a few key things. 5G mmWave is a hit-and-miss feature depending on your market but it’s a futureproof addition you have to expect from this price bracket. Likewise, the camera’s low light and selfie capabilities are not quite up to scratch. The software is similarly hit and miss. With Google apps and a dedicated Assistant button, Sony keeps its version of Android close to Google’s vision. At the same time, the phone is loaded with Tidal, Call of Duty, Facebook, and more bloat that we’ve chastised other brands for in previous years. For customers looking for the best all-around flagship, the Galaxy S22 series or even Sony’s own cheaper Xperia 5 III is probably the better buy.

Over half a year since launch, there’s still a lot to love and gripe about with the Xperia 1 III. I still both love and have misgivings about the camera, software, and a number of the little features which ultimately stopped the phone from being a slam dunk recommendation at launch. And that remains the case today. All the other pros and cons we discussed in the original review also apply. The lack of mmWave 5G means the phone is less future-proof over six months down the line, especially in the US. The phone is also still sluggish to charge, and you’ll have to contend with some pre-installed bloatware too. On the positive side, performance is still solid, the battery easily lasts all day, and there’s a suite of multimedia features for audio, video, and gaming enthusiasts to sink their teeth into. However, the one detail that’s undoubtedly aged less well is the price. Sony has discounted the handset by $100 since its launch, but it still retails for a hefty $1,199 through official channels.

Announced in April, the Xperia 1 III is Sony’s latest flagship phone. Sony puts a lot of emphasis on the device’s imaging capabilities but with a Snapdragon 888 chipset, 6.5-inch 4K OLED display and 12GB of RAM the Xperia offers top-end specs all around. Content creators will also appreciate the microSD slot that can deal with cards of up to 1TB in capacity, as well as the dedicated shutter button. The rear camera uses a 12 MP sensor in the primary module, next to a 12 MP ultra-wide with a 16mm equivalent focal length. The tele module uses a fairly unique design that allows the phone to switch between a 70 and 105mm lens with f/2.3 and f/2.8 apertures, respectively. In video mode, you can record clips in 4K resolution and a range of frame rates from 24fps for a cinema-like look all the way up to 120fps for slow-motion effects. Let’s see how the Sony Xperia 1 III fared in our DXOMARK Camera tests.

Sony has gone above and beyond with the Xperia 1 III, and it should be a smartphone on the tip of every Android enthusiast's tongue — especially if they have an interest in photography and cinematography. From the dazzling 21:9 4K HDR display with a 120Hz refresh rate to the brilliant array of camera features, Sony has made an exceptional smartphone. But exceptional comes at a price. Unless you’re a professional in the field of content creation who wants another camera setup alongside their other equipment, $1,299 is a big asking price for the more casual smartphone users. Still, those who do dish out will get a premium phone with plenty of entertainment perks. If you’re after a smartphone with a big focus on cameras, the Xperia 1 III should strike your fancy. For those that adore Xperia smartphones but don’t want to think about spending over $1,000 for one, then the Xperia 5 III is an excellent choice instead. For more on the best smartphones on the market today, we’ve got you covered.

Touch on the Sony Xperia 1 III is quite accurate. When gaming, every area of the screen is responsive, and the general accuracy is good. It is quite smooth in all use cases such as browsing the web, scrolling in the gallery app, and playing video games. The device manages ghost touches well in both portrait and landscape modes. Judder is noticeable at 24 fps; but while no judder is noticeable at 30 and 60 fps, frame drops and stutters are visible at all frame rates. Despite some aliasing, the Sony Xperia 1 III nonetheless provides a pleasant gaming experience.

The Xperia 1 III is not for everyone, but for devoted smartphone camera (or Sony) fans, it’s another intriguing device, despite the prohibitive price. I can’t unequivocally say it’s the best smartphone camera, but, like its predecessors, it does things its own way, whether that’s the camera array, deeply customizable camera app or the slick, sharp 4K 120Hz screen. Does anyone need a 4K phone screen? I’m not sure, but Sony makes a better argument for it with its external display app. The Mk.III, with its almost matte finish, looks and feels more like Sony’s family of alpha cameras, or perhaps more accurately, its high-end RX point-and-shoots, and when most other phones are backed with glass or glossy plastic, I think the Xperia 1 III has its own unique charm. Barring the iffy selfie camera, the latest Xperia 1 doesn’t do anything poorly and if you have the patience and the skill to master it, the Mk.III can take some stunning shots.

The latest Xperia phone seems pitched at a particular kind of smartphone shopper, one that's obsessed with fine camera controls. At $1,300, the Xperia 1 III is also an expensive phone. But if you like the potential of unrivaled smartphone camera control -- or just love the aesthetic of Sony’s hardware-- there’s a lot to like here.

It should be no surprise that Sony is capable of making excellent smartphones. The company knows more than a thing or two about audio devices, has plenty of pedigree when it comes to displays, and has a fine reputation when it comes to cameras. And the Xperia 1 III does the job of being more than the sum of those inherently good parts. While some of the specs may be overkill, and the shape might take a little getting used to, there’s no denying it will be hard to beat this phone when it comes to audio and video excellence.

Despite an impressive list of audio features, sound turns out not to be the Xperia 1 III’s strongest point. In playback, while Sony’s latest and priciest phone makes an acceptable choice for gaming thanks to a natural and fairly wide sound reproduction and the practical low-latency headphones jack, we wouldn’t recommend it for playing music nor for watching movies. As a recording device, the Xperia 1 III is fairly good for videos (both life and selfie) and quiet meetings, but it proves to be deeply inadequate when it comes to recording in loud environments, such as concerts.

Sony Xperia 1 III is without a doubt the best phone the Japanese have made so far. Beautiful, with a brilliant screen, great cameras, great audio features and packed with unique Sony technologies. If you are not put off by the high price - or you are a die-hard fan of the Xperia series - you will love this model. Everyone else will have to ask if what Xperia 1 III offers is worth $ 1299? Sony Xperia 1 III is one of the most expensive models of Sony smartphones so far - probably only Xperia PRO, costing an astronomical 2.5 thousand dollars had a higher price. Let's face it - there are many more affordable flagships from competitors on the market, which of course don't have some of the unique features of Xperia 1 III, but aren't inferior to Sony in terms of quality and capabilities. And a few hundred dollars in your wallet makes all the difference.

If you've answered "yes" to all of the above questions – and you love all things Xperia – the latest smartphone from Sony really will be the ultimate device for you. However, if you simply want a premium Android phone packed with features and a brilliant camera, there are much better options, including handsets with easier point-and-shoot cameras, one-tap Night mode photography, faster processors and speedier charging... and most of these are more affordable. Not least, the upcoming Sony Xperia 5 III which costs over £300 less than the Xperia 1 III.

This could be all the phone that many will need, with a great display, plenty of power and useful features like the headphone socket and expandable storage. But the camera is complicated by Sony's attempt to make it more 'pro', missing the mark hit by many others when it comes to basic performance.

Everything you could want is here according to the specs sheet, but there remains a couple of issues when using this phone day-to-day, including an unintuitive camera and a disappointingly dull screen.

The Xperia 1 III is one of the most interesting phones I’ve tested this year. This isn’t a cookie-cutter flagship impersonating a Galaxy S21 in its attempt to earn a place among the best Android phones – it’s doing its own thing and I appreciate that a lot. It’s great to see features like the SD card slot and headphone jack kept in. Design-wise its also wonderfully unique featuring a notch and cut-out free screen alongside an atypically tall and narrow design. On top of this it’s fast, has a good camera and mostly fluid software. But, there are bits that aren’t a complete success. Some parts of the camera need improving and I’d like a brighter screen when outside. Still, even with these flaws this is the best Sony flagship in a long time and it shouldn’t be dismissed – even at its high asking price.

In the Xperia 1 III, Sony has created a sophisticated device that both looks good and delivers flagship-level performance. It offers sophisticated camera hardware and software and a lovely high-resolution OLED that’s not quite like anything else in its class. And yet I’m struggling to think of anyone who should buy this phone over an iPhone 12 Pro Max or a Galaxy S21 Ultra.

The Sony Xperia 1 III isn't a smartphone that will be a crowd-pleaser but for those who like the quirky shape, or have purchased Sony smartphones previously, it's a great choice as we have to say, we think it's the best Sony smartphone we've reviewed to date. The Sony Xperia 1 III offers a lot of premium smartphone features, it has a great screen, excellent battery life and a camera that's much improved when compared with past Sony Xperia smartphones and can stand its own against other premium smartphones. One slight snag is the price as it is expensive but it could be a great smartphone for someone who likes a smartphone that stands out from the crowd and has the cash to splash.

Overall, the Sony Xperia 1 III stumbles to offer a flawless flagship package, but it’s as close as the company has ever come to building an exceptional smartphone. There’s fierce competition at this price point, and unless you will absolutely make the most of Sony’s more niche features, there are better all-rounders you can buy for the same or even less cash. If you do want to dive head-first into the Xperia experience, then this is undoubtedly Sony’s best phone to date and you’ll love it. Personally, it’s a phone I’d love to own but could never justify buying.

The third time is the charm, it is said, and this is at least true of the Sony Xperia 1 III, which is the third incarnation of Sony’s Xperia 1 series, which the Japanese company launched back in 2019. The new mobile patches on a few of the holes that the previous Xperia 1 models had compared to the competition, and also offers enough cool unique features – PS4 Remote Play and 360 Spatial Sound just to name a few – for, that Sony Xperia 1 III should objectively be a strong and serious competitor to the Android flagship models that currently dominates the market. What still scares many consumers away is Sony’s special camera solution, which is far more geared towards semi-professionals than the Snapchat and Instagram segment. This is also the case with the Xperia 1 III, but at least Sony has solved some of the software issues that plagued previous models (though not the automatic HDR feature that still teases), and the Basic mode of the Photography Pro app ‘ one should most regular users be able to figure out.

The reality, however, remains that this is a niche product that instead of appealing to a larger audience, digs further into that niche of tech nerds and overlooks some fundamental experiences. Sony makes the best camera sensors that all the industry uses, it has the know-how to make a great smartphone for everyone. It just needs to take that task a bit more seriously and consider making a phone not just for "Sony nerds". A phone that will still have the Sony DNA, but with less of the quirks and a price that for once doesn't raise eye-brows.

And then there's the battery, which is more disappointing than the Friends reunion. In light use, I was able to mostly get through a day. But on days where I played games or did a lot of photography, I needed to top it off by dinner time. In our CNET battery tests with continuous video playback in airplane mode, it lasted 16 hours, 12 minutes with the screen set to 60Hz, which is an OK time. When I ran the same test with the screen at 120Hz, it lasted 10 hours and 45 minutes. Not even remotely good.

As with any mid-range phone, there's a collection of compromises that come with the Xperia 10 III. Sure, there's enough power to offer a smooth experience and it will cope with the latest games, but it's not quite on par with those devices offering a step-up in hardware, often for around the same price or even less. The design and build definitely works in Sony's favour though: this is a premium looking and feeling device, with the waterproofing a definite bonus and something few rivals offer (except for Samsung). The camera also lets the Sony experience down. While the main camera is generally decent in well lit scenes and there's a proper zoom lens, the front camera and low-light shooting is weak, so it doesn't feel as versatile as you might hope. Overall, the competition is just a little too strong for the Sony Xperia 10 III to stand out. Unless you're sold on that water-resistant design and 21:9 display, you'll get more for your money elsewhere.

Ultimately, the Xperia 1 III is not a bad phone. But it's a phone that takes a special type of person to appreciate. We certainly can't recommend it to anyone who isn't a brand loyalist, and maybe even those folks could be better off exploring alternative paths in the search of the ultimate smartphone.

Buy an Xperia 1 III. It doesn't know the meaning of the word. By once again pooling the efforts of its different divisions, Sony has delivered a truly flagship handset. It has a sublime display, a set of cameras on par with more fine-grain control than most DSLRs, and a feature list longer than a post-Brexit passport queue. A bigger battery and 120Hz screen refresh rate even fix its predecessor's few missteps. As before, though, some might say screen specs like these are overkill in a phone. Not everyone knows the difference between aperture priority and exposure compensation, either. Apple and Samsung are arguably more novice-friendly, despite commanding the same hefty price premium for their top-spec handsets. Android fans who like their top-end tech to be easy to use might be better served by a Galaxy S21 Ultra. Still, if specs matter most, the Xperia 1 III has undeniable appeal.

Sony smartphones are weird – and in this context that's a compliment. Honestly that’s why I look forward to a new one every summer: with the exception of foldables, no other phone pushes the envelope quite like a Sony Xperia. No one else is cramming a screen this sharp and a variable telephoto camera into a water-resistant chassis tall enough to stand out in a crowd. No one else has a camera division with a pedigree quite like Sony’s. And no one else is going as far to blur the line between professional and phone photography. To test a phone like that, you need to give it a setting worthy of its stated skills – so I took it to one of my favorite places in the US to see how it tackled the monuments (and the mysteries) of Montauk. I’m Michael Fisher and this is the Xperia 1iii Road Trip Review!

In the expanse of smartphones, the Sony Xperia 1 III (read as "one mark three") positions itself as a tool for photographers, filmmakers, audiophiles and gamers. This is Sony's third take on a phone targeted at creative types, and like a band on its third album, its ambitions only succeed some of the time. With a state-of-the-art telephoto lens made up of tiny moving lenses that can switch between two focal lengths, 5G support for the US, and a first-of-its-kind 4K high refresh-rate display, you have to wonder if Sony's trying to do too much and inadvertently mucking up what would otherwise be a magnificent phone? The fact that the Xperia 1 III costs $1,300 (which converts roughly to £940, AU$1,735) makes its shortcomings impossible to ignore.

The Sony Xperia 1 III is relatively pricey at 8,449 yuan ($1,334) for the 256 GB model and 9,499 yuan ($1,491) for the 512 GB model, but early sales numbers in China have reportedly been impressive, which perhaps isn’t surprising considering how much this phone stands out from the pack with its loud front-facing speakers, a headphone jack, a 4K/120Hz screen (although I can’t see the need for 4K, it’s more appealing on paper), and a dedicated camera shutter button. I didn’t get to use the phone long enough to test battery life, but its 4,500 mAh cell seems a bit small for a 4K/120Hz panel. But only further testing can tell definitively.

Sony hasn’t changed direction with the Sony Xperia 1 IV, but it still offers several features you don’t get elsewhere. It’s a top-tier phone with a headphone jack, expandable memory and an unusual take on what a smartphone camera should feel like. It has an optical zoom lens and multiple apps that focus on manual control for stills and video. While other phones offer the same controls, the Sony Xperia IV spreads them out to make them easier to use – much as they may seem intimidating at first. However, actual image quality is mixed. Image processing lags behind the best, the preview image in the app is poor, and the limited sharpness of the zoom lens limits the appeal of the super-advanced sounding zoom. The Sony Xperia 1 IV also suffers overheating issues and costs a small fortune. While it’s a great phone, you should have a limited tolerance for such problems at this price.

Sony seems to be OK with that, as are Xperia fans. But that’s all a bit of a shame because the Xperia 1 IV has a lot of really great ideas that more consumers should be in a position to enjoy. I don’t want the Xperia 1 series to lose its unique identity and excellent features, but it needs to find a way to cut through a little closer to the center ground. Unfortunately, a sky-high price tag and pursuit of the niche at the expense of familiarity are running the latest Xperia down a completely different track.

With a DXOMARK Camera score of 118, the Sony Xperia 1 IV delivered a fairly balanced performance in our tests, achieving decent results in photo, zoom and video when the light conditions were not too difficult. However, it could not quite match the best rivals in the Ultra-Premium price segment. In photo mode, the camera generally captured nice pictures, with good exposure and natural texture rendering. The device’s tele lens with a variable focal length from 85-125mm (35mm-equivalent) is a stand-out feature and delivered good results in our tests, making tele zoom capture the Sony’s strong point. In video mode, our testers liked the accurate and smooth autofocus, as well as the decent video stabilization. Apart from the more sophisticated tele zoom setup, the Xperia 1 IV’s camera hardware is mostly identical to its in-house rival Xperia 5 IV. This said, despite the similar camera specifications, overall image quality and camera performance were not quite the same and the Xperia 1 IV’s overall score is one point lower than the Xperia 5 IV. Differences were mainly noticeable in color and autofocus where the Xperia 5 IV delivered better results. On the other hand, the flagship Xperia 1 IV was better in the zoom category.

The Sony Xperia 1 V is launching later in 2023 but we've already had some legit looking leaks, focusing on the camera tech, design and basic specs. Some of those Xperia 1 V rumours are still exactly that, so we may get more upgrades than suggested here. Here's hoping the camera hardware is more of a step up, unlike the Samsung Galaxy S23, so it's more of a compelling flagship. What new features would you like to see in the Sony Xperia 1 V? Will this Mark 5 phone be one of the best blowers of 2023? Let us know what's going on in that gorgeous head! As well as these leaks, we also saw some actual tech launches this week. The Oppo Find N2 Flip finally got a global release, while the Huawei Watch Buds also emerged for a worldwide market. Here's a recap of those unboxing/review/hands on videos, and a run through of the Sony Xperia 1 V rumours. Next week MWC 2023 kicks off, so expect a lot more launches coming at your face!

You have to admire how stubbornly Sony has stuck to its enthusiast’s brief with the Xperia 1 IV. It’s doubled down on many of the talking points of the Xperia 1 III, including an even more flexible and pro-friendly camera system. It also stuck with its unique widescreen 4K display, which offers the best canvas for mobile movie-watching, while audiophiles continue to be better catered for here than with any other flagship phone. However, the Xperia 1 IV’s stamina – while improved in general terms – still suffers a little under load, which could be related to a tendency to run slightly hot. Factor in a casual point-and-shoot camera experience that remains uncompetitive, and an even higher price tag, and this is unlikely to be the year in which Sony attains crossover success with its uncompromising flagship vision.

The Sony Xperia 1 IV offers good display performance overall, with accurate colors both indoors and in low light. Its excellent control of motion means that there are no frame drops to mar the user experience when watching videos or when playing video games, and it is very pleasantly smooth in every use case. Its brightness is too low under sunlight and in low light, however; and while the device has good color fidelity when viewed on axis, a strong green cast appears when viewing content on angle. We put the Sony Xperia 1 IV through our rigorous DXOMARK Display test suite to measure its performance across six criteria. In this test results summary, we will break down how it fared in a variety of tests and several common use cases.

I can sum up the Sony Xperia 1 IV in about six words: it’s a year-on-year update. In keeping with its own tradition, it’s the kind of upgrade that you see phone makers install into their next flagship since they were unable to do so with the last one. Unlike most smartphone makers that have the tendency to uproot and overhaul the design and features of their smartphones, I would say that the Xperia 1 IV is a testament to Sony’s discipline and, to a greater degree, dedication in adding meaningful upgrades to their phone. Of course, that is assuming that moving forward, the next generation of Xperia 1s will still retain this true optical zoom feature. To reiterate the point, I had a lot of fun playing with the Xperia 1 IV’s true continuous optical zoom function and much like the Pro-I, it had me actively seeking out subjects to snap pictures of. So, if you’re looking for something different than what Samsung, OnePlus, or even Oppo is offering, and you don’t mind the exorbitant RM6099 price tag that comes with it, you could always give this phone a shot.

Is the Sony Xperia 1 IV a good phone? Absolutely. So should you buy it? Only if you’re after something very specific and are prepared to pay for it. As we’ve come to expect from Sony, the Xperia 1 IV is a multimedia powerhouse — packed with sought-after audio and video features, bundled together in a lightweight software shell. 2022’s model leans heavily into the content creator angle in a bid to set itself apart from its predecessor. There are plenty of nice touches to its revamped apps that finally allow them to reach their potential, and a free year of Bravia Core is a positive sign of the sort of tie-ins Sony should be leveraging to add value. This is the best Xperia ever, but it’s only a small upgrade and the phone isn’t alone in vying for your hard-earned cash.

With a DXOMARK Audio score of 121, the Sony Xperia 1 IV delivers a fairly average performance and cannot quite keep up with the best in its class. In Playback it delivers fairly consistent audio quality across all use cases, but with voices in dialogues sounding veiled and unclear it cannot really be recommended for watching movies with the built-in speakers. The phone benefits from a warm and mellow sonority and it’s virtually impossible to occlude the speakers with your hands while holding the phone. But our testers also noticed a few issues. In terms of tonal balance, there is a loss of information in the midrange area; compression impairs dynamics at all volume levels, and distortion can be severe even at minimum volume. The device struggles in the volume category, with inconsistent volume steps and a too quiet minimum volume. It also appears to start playing back sound in mono until the second speaker slowly fades in with a few seconds delay, which can be slightly irritating. When using the Xperia 1 IV as a recording device it does best for main camera and selfie video but audio quality is close when recording voice memos. Timbre is natural if a bit thin in most use cases and Dynamics are good. Background sound quality is well preserved and user hand position on the device has no impact on recording quality. Our testers observed a pumping lower treble at high sound pressure levels, though, and the Sony lacks an audio zoom feature which is pretty common on other devices in its class.

The Sony Xperia 1 IV showed poor autonomy when tested in default settings during the typical usage scenario tests. Its performance on-the-go was decent when calling or taking photos and videos, but when it came to scrolling on social apps, the autonomy fell drastically to one of the lowest levels we have measured to date. When tested in calibrated mode, the Sony Xperia 1 IV had decent autonomy in the calling test as well, but it struggled a lot when streaming videos, where it had one of the lowest autonomy readings in our database. The gaming and music streaming use cases came with poor autonomy, too. On the charging side, the Xperia 1 IV didn’t show a great performance either. The 30W took 2 hours to fill up the large 5000 mAh battery, and only provided 2 hours and 40 minutes of autonomy after a 5-minute charge. The wireless experience was average, taking 2 hours and 18 minutes to fully charge the device. The charge efficiency was poor, but the residual consumptions of both wired and wireless chargers were low, consuming a very small amount of power. Discharge efficiency was also poor, with the Sony Xperia 1 IV draining very high discharge currents during use cases like gaming, music streaming, GPS navigation, and especially video streaming, showing that it is not well-optimized for such usage.

The Sony Xperia 1 IV is an iterative improvement over the III, which tightens up some of the problems but still falls victim to a lot of the same issues. There is some clear thermal throttling that stops the stellar Snapdragon 8 Gen 1 chipset from operating at its best, the long design will not be for everyone and let’s be honest — packing a 4K display in something this small provides a barely noticeable improvement at the behest of an extra bit of battery juice. But for camera pros and Xperia fans, these issues are easily forgiven in what is a cracking phone for photography and entertainment!

The Sony Xperia 1 IV is a premium smartphone with a premium price that's capable of capturing images with true-to-life colour. The continuous optical zoom is something a bit different with the telephoto lens moving between 3.5x and 5.2x but the results aren't really any better than those we've seen from other smartphones that don't have continuous optical zoom built in. We also experienced the occasional gremlin causing problems with the UI and the smartphone struggled with heat management. The display is great, though, and the battery life will keep you capturing photos all day.

Sony clearly has a very specific target market in mind but focusing on a small user base leaves the broader package struggling against experiences available elsewhere. For instance, serious gamers will be left wanting by the lackluster sustained performance, the brand’s computational photography smarts still lag behind for quintessential point-and-shoot use cases, and Sony’s two OS/three-year security update pledge is not great. We’d expect at least another year of support, if not two, when paying top dollar. In the end, the Sony Xperia 1 IV is even harder to justify than its already pricey predecessor. There are plenty of little quality-of-life improvements, from live streaming to camera eye-tracking and a variable focal length zoom, but they’re not fundamental enough to warrant yet another price increase — let alone such a sharp one in the US. You don’t have to be a Sony fan to appreciate this is a lovely phone, but the lack of major changes makes a discounted Xperia 1 III a better pick today.

Topping last year’s Sony Xperia 1 III must have been a daunting task, so Sony has potentially taken the easy route by taking the best parts of the III and just making them a bit better. Now while that may sound like a negative, it's really not; the design is sharper, the screen is brighter, the sound is punchier – improvements across the board. While it may not be the most inspirational generation jump we’ve ever seen, it's still a phone that ticks all the boxes to make it an ideal companion for small screen AV use. The Xperia 1 IV is an excellent enthusiast choice for those looking to squeeze the best AV and music listening performance out of their smartphone.

Sony has extended its Xperia range with a flagship handset that echoes its predecessors in terms of design and specifications. The Xperia 1 IV's 21:9 screen aspect ratio and 4K resolution will be welcomed by many, while the telephoto camera's true optical zoom is interesting. However, the multiplicity of camera apps may confuse some users. In the end, even with all its plus points, it must be said that the premium-priced Sony Xperia 1 IV isn't a handset with mass appeal.

The Sony Xperia 1 IV is a top-tier phone that offers benefits that other phones don’t deliver. It says “no” to the notch, “yes” to expandable storage and the headphone jack, and includes an optical zoom camera. However, photo quality doesn’t match the best in most respects, and the device becomes hot all too often, narrowing its appeal significantly given the high cost.

The Sony Xperia 1 IV is a fine-looking phone with an excellent screen. While Sony fans and enthusiast photographers will have plenty to sink their teeth into here, an overcomplicated camera interface, a prohibitively high price, and semi-regular overheating all hold the phone back from being easy to recommend to everyone.

You have to admire how stubbornly Sony has stuck to its enthusiast’s brief with the Xperia 1 IV. It’s doubled down on many of the talking points of the Xperia 1 III, including an even more flexible and pro-friendly camera system. It also stuck with its unique widescreen 4K display, which offers the best canvas for mobile movie-watching, while audiophiles continue to be better catered for here than with any other flagship phone. However, the Xperia 1 IV’s stamina – while improved in general terms – still suffers a little under load, which could be related to a tendency to run slightly hot. Factor in a casual point-and-shoot camera experience that remains uncompetitive, and an even higher price tag, and this is unlikely to be the year in which Sony attains crossover success with its uncompromising flagship vision.

The Xperia 1 iV's advanced and intricate creativity features will justify the high price of admission for a small group of people. While features like the detailed display or variable zoom telephoto camera have more mainstream appeal, they're not enough by themselves to justify picking it over a Galaxy S22 Ultra, Google Pixel 6 Pro or iPhone 13 Pro Max.

The Sony Xperia 1 IV keeps much of the same approach as the Xperia 1 III. The camera is designed to appeal to those wanting to avoid AI and over-processing, with lots of manual options - but lacking basic point-and-shoot functions to make it competitive in all conditions. There's loads of power, along with the advantage of a 3.5mm headphone socket and microSD card slot, but this is an expensive phone. There's a premium design paired with a lot to love, but there's plenty to think about, too.

The Sony Xperia 1 IV brings some stellar creative features, with its continuous optical zoom wowing for photography and its ability to shoot 4K 120fps footage on all three cameras a great tool for video. It’s also a well-rounded phone with a good-looking display, powerful processor and long-lasting battery. However it’s rough around the edges with a fingerprint scanner that struggles to pick up your print, and a price that will likely put off many buyers.

Sony has comfortably positioned its Xperia 1 IV as one of the best phones for creatives - it has plenty of top-end camera features like a continuous optical zoom, a video recording mode inspired by its Alpha cameras, and a new handy audio recording app. It's also got some useful new entertainment modes like a built-in Sony Bravia app, tools for video game streamers and a 3.5mm headphone jack. However some of our gripes with previous Sony Xperia models haven't been fixed, and the high price will put off some buyers.

In reality, Sony already hit the mark last year with the Xperia 1 III, but of course there’s always room for small improvements, and that’s exactly what the Sony Xperia 1 IV is. A small improvement for the discerning. The screen has become brighter, the battery is bigger and the camera has got a few more features, including a telephoto lens that can now zoom freely throughout the range between 85 and 125 mm. And the camera software and all the automated settings have finally been sorted out.

Sony has long since accepted its flagship phones aren’t aimed at everyone; they’re proper devotee gadgets, with features other brands have kicked to the curb. The Xperia 1 IV is the latest evolution of that. This is a phenomenally capable flagship, with exceptional performance, all-day battery life and a cinematic 4K display. It’s also purpose-built for photographers, who will love the expansive manual shooting modes, rapid burst shooting and stellar image quality across all lenses. But while the seamless optical zoom is technically impressive, and surely the future of smartphone cameras, the limited magnification range restricts its appeal. Ultimately it won’t steal mainstream customers away from the Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra or iPhone 13 Pro Max, which are far happier to hold your hand on the photography front. It’s not such a leap forward that Xperia 1 III owners need to think about upgrading, either, and thermals are a concern. But fans willing to pay the hefty cost of entry aren’t going to be disappointed.

If you have the budget to buy the latest-generation camera technology, the Sony Xperia 1 IV smartphone is a great deal. But compared to other flagship phones, the phone doesn’t have as many appealing factors as Samsung or other flagship brands. However, if you are a true fan of Sony, you should check out this phone in the meanwhile. On the other hand, if you are looking for an alternative option, there are two recommendations that are worth your money. The Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra brings an impressive set of specs and features that any android smartphone can deliver, while there’s iPhone 13 Pro with dynamic video recording. But, the Xperia 1 IV can be picked for the best camera manual and realistic camera experience.

In a sea of similar-looking and feeling smartphones, I have a natural respect and fondness for Sony for thinking outside the box, for sticking to its guns, for zigging where others zag. To be honest, I still think something like the Google Pixel 6 Pro or the Vivo X70 Pro Plus can grab a better shot most of the time, but I like that the Xperia 1 IV challenges me to make the adjustments needed to find better exposure in a shot. But in between the still sub-par battery life (caused by the unnecessary 4K display), thermal issues, and a very high $1600 retail price, the Xperia 1 IV is hard to recommend to anyone but enthusiasts. The price has rightfully garnered some scoff from those who follow smartphone news, but honestly, people into cameras won’t be deterred by the price, because camera gear is expensive. My 20mm lens for my Sony camera alone is $1,200. A brand name Manfrotto tripod can easily go for $800. A camera bag, $300. To that group, $1600 for a phone isn’t high. But that group is a niche, and the Xperia 1 IV is a niche phone.

Despite all these flaws, we found the Sony Xperia 1 IV an appealing smartphone with great potential and skills, especially when in the hands of camera professionals. We believe Sony will work out some of the throttling issues as this is a pre-production phone, and every aspect of it is worth it. We really liked this Xperia in spite of its issues, and we see no reason why not to get one. If you find it complicated or overengineered or cannot forgive some of its shortcomings, look elsewhere.

The Sony Xperia 1 IV is meant to be the one-stop Sony flagship for 2022. Packed to the brim with cutting-edge hardware and the latest features Sony has to offer. It’s not quite over-the-top like the Xperia PRO-I, with its 1.0-type sensor, but it’s obvious that the Xperia 1 IV is flying very close to the super-premium PRO-I. Sony wants this to be a smartphone for creatives, and that’s immediately apparent when you see that there are three different camera apps and a plethora of manual controls. Its 120 Hz, 4K display and meaty stereo speakers are there to help you enjoy any media you may wish. The light weight and grippy design make it an excellent everyday carry. And it’s kind of amazing that Sony keeps the headphone jack on its phones, despite the fact that the company has a plethora of wireless headphones that it would probably be more than happy to sell to you. I know, it’s weird, but I have to give props that this very basic connector is included on this very premium phone. However, at the asking price, it’s kind of hard to recommend the Sony Xperia 1 IV.

It just doesn’t seem fair. You shouldn’t get plaudits from reviewers year after year saying you’re "one of the most-improved phone brands" … without eventually becoming an easily-recommendable phone brand. But when it comes to smartphones, Sony is the opposite of easy. I’m Michael Fisher and this is a very early preview of the Sony Xperia 1 IV.

索尼仍然忠实于自己的产品线,再次将其高端智能手机设计得与智能手机竞争对手有些不同。除了骁龙8代、新的相机传感器和真正的光学变焦之外,Xperia 1 Mark V还提供了许多其他旗舰智能手机所不具备的设备特性。

The Xperia 1 VI is a significant change for Sony, bringing the design and display of its flagship in line with other Android phones. While it might sound like a downgrade, the phone benefits as a result. Other highlights include strong Snapdragon 8 Gen 3 performance, excellent battery life and very good zoom and macro photos. However, the rest of the camera experience is a step down from the best camera phones around, while slow charging and occasional overheating issues are frustrating.

When considering the Xperia 1 V, it might be best to think of what as it can offer rather than the hit it will make on your pocket when purchasing it. The Xperia I V sits at the high-end range of price points for this handset displaying Sony's various high-end features and stylish appearance. Currently I have seen this smartphone, with 256GB of ROM and 12GB of RAM, as reviewed priced at £975 from Amazon. Shopping around might bring the reward of a lower cost.

Sony has turned out another brilliant pro-leaning flagship in the Xperia 1 V. The notchless 21:9 4K display is unique for its widescreen movie potential, while this is also the best-equipped smartphone for audiophiles thanks to the rare inclusion of a 3.5mm headphone jack. The biggest improvement this year is to the Xperia 1 V’s camera. With a much larger main sensor and improved image processing, Sony’s camera has some point-and-shoot smarts to match its peerless manual setup, while low-light shooting is also improved. Technically, Sony hasn’t fully addressed our main criticisms of the Xperia I IV. At £1,299, it’s still very expensive (though no longer an outlier), it can still run a little warm, and the 30W charging speed remains way too low for a phone of this calibre. For a relatively small niche of flush media-enthusiasts, however, the Sony Xperia 1 V is flat out the best option on the market.

Xperia One Mark 5 is undoubtedly an exciting phone; A 120Hz OLED 4K display that you can use as a professional camera monitor and of course cameras equipped with continuous optical zoom and eye tracking for autofocus along with dedicated photography and video applications; Or even a headphone jack, a dedicated camera shutter button and a SIM card slot that does not need a pin! You are probably as excited to experience it as we were to review it. But the price of the Xperia 1 V phone is very high; So much so that the Galaxy S23 Ultra looks cheap next to it! Also, using the complicated user interface of this phone’s camera to capture the best images is beyond the patience of many people who just want to take the most colorful and lively photo for Instagram with one click. Maybe if you are a photographer or a filmmaker, Xperia 1 V is the phone of your dreams.

Those who want to control every aspect of their photography may appreciate the Sony Xperia 1 V, but others will find the default images too flat looking for a phone that costs more than top camera phones like the Galaxy S23 Ultra or iPhone 14 Pro.

The Xperia 1 V can be considered the ideal smartphone for enthusiasts. While it can serve anyone pretty well, it however is definitely not the smartphone for everyone. If you love to tailor your experience in a smartphone, be it themes or camera controls, this is the smartphone that can satisfy your needs unlike any other out there. The added bonus here is the classic features like the physical shutter key making the whole experience rather unique and attractive in this day and age.

It's clear that - just like its camera strategy - the Sony Xperia 1 V is designed for something of a niche audience. It's too expensive and has a camera system that's pretty complicated - not to mention it doesn't deliver the eye-popping, colourful results you'll find on the more mainstream smartphones, particularly at nighttime. That's not to say I haven't enjoyed using it. The grippy texture is fantastic, as is the 21:9 OLED display and stereo speakers, plus there's a lightweight approach to software that I really appreciate. Add that to the practical inclusion of a physical audio port, storage expansion and waterproofing, and you get a phone that definitely ticks a lot of boxes for the right person. If you find the true-to-life camera results preferable to the mainstream saturated approach, or if you want those professional camera and music tools at your disposal, this could absolutely be the phone for you.

Whether to buy the Xperia 1 V all comes down to budget, and at $1,399, you’ll need a healthy one. The Xperia 1 V excels as a multimedia powerhouse for both avid content consumption and captures, and the improved camera setup makes this the best Xperia to date. Still, the lack of an upgrade commitment, some aging hardware choices, and barebones software (outside of a few apps) leaves us with pause for thought before offering a slam-dunk recommendation. There’s no denying that you can buy a lot of phone for less money from the mainstream players. The Samsung Galaxy S23 Ultra ($1153 at Amazon) and Apple iPhone 14 Pro Max ($1099 at Best Buy) might not be quite the full multimedia powerhouses the Xperia is, but they’re not far off.

Sony’s best phone in 2023, is an excellent performer, but costs more than a Samsung Galaxy S23 Ultra, and that’s a problem for it. The phone is beautifully made and a refined companion to keep in your pocket, its combination of computing performance and sharp cameras putting the Sony Xperia 1 V near the top of the 2023 smartphone charts, but you just might find your thoughts drifting to other flagships.

The Sony Xperia 1 V is the best Sony phone for 2023. It’s a great example of how Sony’s approach to phone design is a little different to that of the competition. And a big part of this approach is keeping a lot of older things the same as they always were. This handset is a lot like the Xperia 1 IV, but with a new processor and some other tweaks. If you bought last year’s model, you should feel pretty good about that. But is it dynamic enough to compete with phones like the Samsung Galaxy S23 Ultra and iPhone 14 Pro Max? That part is a little less clear. It doesn’t drip in that sense of “newness” that propels a lot of shiny, expensive tech, which may lead you to question if it is really worth the high asking price. However, it is going to appeal to a key kind of tech traditionalist. Its camera software is also inspired by Sony’s dedicated cameras, offering a completely different feel to most of the best camera phones. Is it better?

Sony has turned out another brilliant pro-leaning flagship in the Xperia 1 V. The notchless 21:9 4K display is unique for its widescreen movie potential, while this is also the best-equipped smartphone for audiophiles thanks to the rare inclusion of a 3.5mm headphone jack. The biggest improvement this year is to the Xperia 1 V’s camera. With a much larger main sensor and improved image processing, Sony’s camera has some point-and-shoot smarts to match its peerless manual setup, while low-light shooting is also improved. Technically, Sony hasn’t fully addressed our main criticisms of the Xperia I IV. At £1,299, it’s still very expensive (though no longer an outlier), it can still run a little warm, and the 30W charging speed remains way too low for a phone of this calibre.

In a way, you’ve got to admire Sony for keeping going in a market where it attracts so few sales. I pushed for how well the Xperia 1 V is doing in terms of units shifted, and was told this information can’t be disclosed, but it is “good”. Without any hard data, it’s quite possible that “good” in this context means “for a Sony”. Across the globe, Apple accounts for about a third of smartphone sales, Samsung another third, and everybody else battles for the remaining third. In several markets, Sony has about 1% of the market – it seems unlikely that the big two need to feel worried about the 1 V just yet. Although it has addressed some criticisms of its flagship model, it has done little to address many of the others.

The Sony Xperia 1V provides everything a flagship smartphone should and then some more. The gorgeous display with its vibrant colors has unique to this smartphone. It features an industrial design that is protected by Aluminum housing and the toughest Gorilla Glass Victus 2 for the screen. It also has a one-of-a-kind camera system with a unique sensor that is specifically optimized for this smartphone. If you want the best of what smartphone technology has to offer, this is the smartphone to get. However, Sony smartphones are not available in every region and if you happen to live in some place where Sony doesn’t sell its smartphone, then you should look for a different smartphone. The device has flagship performance, while the only thing it lacks is the higher nits brightness support.

While the Sony Xperia 1 V can honestly boast some impressive hardware, a lot of that splendour is, if we’re being quite honest here, a varying degree of repeat performance. The good news is that that said performance is still pretty impressive, to the point that I can still recommend it as a solid option to avide mobile photographers, even with its ludicrous price tag. To bring up another point, its asking price of RM6,399 is also makes the Xperia 1 V the most expensive Xperia smartphones that Sony has, to date. And while the brand does love to argue that its price tag is no less unreasonable than the ones commanded by brands like Samsung and Apple, you would think that the least it could do is provide a USB-C cable or even one of its specially designed casings, but no. Even with its new packaging, all you’re getting is the phone, and nothing else.

Sony has doubled down on its unusual decision to pitch the Xperia 1 series firmly at creatives who already own Sony gear. If you shoot with Sony cameras and want a phone with the same feel – and a few specific compatibility features – then you may well love the Xperia 1 V. But that doesn’t describe me, and it won’t describe most people. For just about anyone else there’s little reason to pay more for a phone that often delivers less thanks to a complicated camera and slow charging. The only real area it excels is its 4K display, but that’s old news now and of limited use – there’s a reason no other phone manufacturer has ever bothered to equal it. Sony’s hardware remains as slick as ever, but at this price there’s little reason for most people to put up with the compromises.

The Sony Xperia 1 V is the best Xperia 1 model from Sony to date. And that’s saying something, because last year’s model already offered plenty of improvements for the discerning. So if you buy the Sony Xperia 1 V, you’ll enjoy a bright, high-resolution display, a large battery with long battery life, great performance and perhaps the best mobile camera for enthusiasts and semi-professionals on the market.

The Xperia 1 V is more of the same from Sony: a powerful, expensive flagship phone that’s destined to only appeal to a small niche. If you love Sony’s proper cameras and want a phone that mimics them, you may well love it – but otherwise you should probably steer clear.

The Xperia 1 Mark V is a high-quality and powerful smartphone. How unreasonable is it to buy Sony's latest flagship for $1,399? This is not so much due to the price, which you can definitely obtain at a cheaper price point or via mobile contracts—but rather due to the Xperia 1 Mark V's biggest shortcoming. Software support of two major Android updates and three years of security patches are simply not up to par with the rest of the industry. But somehow that is also so Sony. Why launch a perfect product on the market if you can't also include a few tiny and major slip-ups? Why not make a smartphone that is 16.5 cm long, developed in a country where people have rather small hands? And why include a telephoto camera with enough sharpness and a sensible focal length if it can zoom in a bit instead?

The Sony Xperia 1 V is a brilliant phone for Sony Alpha camera users, photo and video enthusiasts who want loads of control over their camera system, or headphone fans who want a pro-grade flagship to plug into. For everyone else, though, it's too expensive. To really compete with the best from Apple and Samsung, Sony either needs to out-perform, or undercut them, but in many key areas it does neither. The Xperia 1 V screen is perfect for cinematic content but is too tall and narrow to get the best from most other media, games, and phone tasks. It doesn't get as bright as some competition, and the lack of a variable refresh rate matched with that 4K resolution hurts battery life when set to a smooth 120Hz. The phone's camera is superb for pros who want control, but it doesn't have the best zoom or noise-handling in automatic mode, which most users will default to.

Sony once again makes a case for its 4K flagship phone by providing yet another Xperia 1 that nails picture, sound and features. The unique form factor still won’t appeal to everyone, and there are some Sony-specific software quirks, but they can easily be overlooked in favour of this phone’s performance. This is still undoubtedly a phone for AV enthusiasts. If you are serious about taking your movies and music on the go, you will be hard-pressed to find a better alternative.

You might quibble with the design, which remains an acquired taste, but it does everything exceptionally. The price, however, remains so out of kilter with the market and Sony’s minnow-like status in it that you can’t imagine it giving the Apples, Samsungs and Xiaomis of this world much cause for concern.

Much like Motorola, I appreciate that Sony is out here trying something new with its approach to smartphones. If you've spent most of the last few years focusing your attention on Samsung and Google — or even Apple — it can feel like the entire market has stagnated. Sony's phones have too, to an extent, relied on recycled designs from a pre-pandemic era. But combining fan-favorite features in a device designed for content creation remains, as ever, a smart move on the company's part. Not everyone likes Google's photo processing, and building a smartphone from the ground up to focus on manual controls over all else is a unique approach. It's just too bad that the overall package doesn't come together. At $1,400, neither the ease of use nor the overall smartphone quality are quite there.

Reviewing the Sony Xperia 1 V after using it as my full time phone, including a real life camera test, gaming performance, battery life and beyond. The Sony Xperia 1 V is a big improvement vs the Mark IV, offering a proper point and shoot photo experience, cooler running and general upgrades. But is it the best phone for you in 2023, over the Samsung S23 Ultra, iPhone 14 Pro etc? If you want a smartphone camera that can boost your pics to make them look stunning with zero effort, the Sony Xperia 1 V isn't your best choice.

So, the Sony Xperia 1 V is a good phone — it's a really, really good phone. It's very nice to look at and hold, it has a camera system that is well above average, supported by custom apps that give you that "real camera feel" with their many knobs, buttons, and tidbits. It performs great and, thankfully, doesn't seem to have overheating issues. Its speakers are great, its screen is lovely to stare at. We could knock it for its battery life, but since we found that it gets us through the day, we don't mind it too much. But combine that with a price-tag that is well above other premium products on the market, and we can't help but ask "Why?".

The Sony Xperia 1 V boasts a major camera upgrade vs the Mark IV, namely a fresh 24mm Exmor T sensor which can apparently take better night shots. Hopefully my unboxing and review of the Sony Xperia 1 V will be live soon but here's a run through of all of the big specs, features and upgrades. As always, it's the Alpha camera tech that's most compelling on this 2023 Sony flagship smartphone. While the ultra-wide and telephoto zoom lenses appear very similar to the IV, the Xperia 1 V serves up an all-new primary sensor that's larger than before. You can shoot 12MP pics with improved low light performance, according to Sony. And also up to 4K 120FPS video, using all three lenses. Other improvements include that Snapdragon 8 Gen 2 chipset, pumped-up stereo speakers and a new grippy deisgn. Are you tempted by the Sony Xperia 1 V? It'll cost you around £1299 when it hits the UK at the end of June, so get saving/organ harvesting now! Also this week: Google I/O revealed the Pixel 7a and Pixel Fold, Asus' ROG Ally review embargo lifted, and the Huawei P60 Pro was launched globally. Check out my coverage here on Tech Spurt and stay tuned for a Pixel Fold unboxing!

The new Sony Xperia 1 V retains all the best features of previous Xperia 1 phones, like a 4K high refresh rate display, expandable storage, cutting edge cameras with eye tracking autofocus, a 5,000-mAh battery, a dedicated hardware shutter button and a headphone jack; all wrapped in Sony's lovely mundane and utilitarian design.

The Sony Xperia 1 V is an excellent smartphone, something we've come to expect from Sony. In addition to the new main camera and upgraded chipset, it also brings improved thermals and Night View for all cameras. There are also thoughtful updates on the design, speaker system, and battery life. The Xperia 1 V impressed us right out of the box with one of the greatest smartphone designs we've experienced lately - solid, well-protected, lightweight, and with the best grip on the market. Then comes the excellent 4K OLED HDR10 screen, it's a feast for the eyes. It is color accurate, too, and supports 240Hz touch response and 120 refresh rate, which no longer has to turn off due to overheating like on the Xperia 1 IV! We only wish it had a dynamic refresh rate management. The front-facing speakers on the Xperia 1 V are also something you have to experience for yourself to appreciate them.

That said, this remains a no-compromise handset aimed squarely at creatives who know their way around a camera – and particularly those who shoot video, or who appreciate the Sony’s burst shooting abilities. Rivals also zoom further and pack in more creative modes to appeal to casual snappers. So once again, Samsung, Apple and Google fans aren’t going to be lured from their Galaxys, iPhones and Pixels.

The new Sony Xperia 1 V retains all the best features of previous Xperia 1 phones, like a 4K high refresh rate display, expandable storage, cutting edge cameras with eye tracking autofocus, a 5,000-mAh battery, a dedicated hardware shutter button and a headphone jack; all wrapped in Sony's lovely mundane and utilitarian design.

The Sony Xperia 1 V is an excellent smartphone, something we've come to expect from Sony. In addition to the new main camera and upgraded chipset, it also brings improved thermals and Night View for all cameras. There are also thoughtful updates on the design, speaker system, and battery life. The Xperia 1 V impressed us right out of the box with one of the greatest smartphone designs we've experienced lately - solid, well-protected, lightweight, and with the best grip on the market. Then comes the excellent 4K OLED HDR10 screen, it's a feast for the eyes. It is color accurate, too, and supports 240Hz touch response and 120 refresh rate, which no longer has to turn off due to overheating like on the Xperia 1 IV! We only wish it had a dynamic refresh rate management. The front-facing speakers on the Xperia 1 V are also something you have to experience for yourself to appreciate them.

That said, this remains a no-compromise handset aimed squarely at creatives who know their way around a camera – and particularly those who shoot video, or who appreciate the Sony’s burst shooting abilities. Rivals also zoom further and pack in more creative modes to appeal to casual snappers. So once again, Samsung, Apple and Google fans aren’t going to be lured from their Galaxys, iPhones and Pixels.

索尼新推出的 Xperia I VI 高端智能手机几乎没有什么值得期待的地方:它配备了进一步改进的摄像头、更出色的性能、超长的电池续航时间以及亮度更高的全新 LTPO 显示屏。此外,它还再次提供了其他旗舰手机所不具备的功能。然而,它仍然面临着几个弱点。

Much like its predecessor, the Sony Xperia 1 VI can and does boast some impressive hardware, particularly in the camera department. The fact that it is no longer a slimmer-than-average device is, at least in my books, a massive plus point and a welcome departure that allows it to join the fold of other candy bar flagship smartphones. And while its asking price of RM6,499 is no less steep, I feel the phone makes up for it by offering potential owners of the phone a solid mobile photography experience, battery life that runs rings around most other flagships, access to certain creature comforts like Google Walley, and the ability to expand your storage via microSD card if needed. The only other thing I wish Sony would have at least changed – this really is just a minor niggle but one I think would still benefit the overall sale of the phone – is to include a USB-C charging cable. I mean, it’s one thing if they don’t want to provide a charging adapter but come on, a charging cable isn’t too much to ask for.

I love Sony. When smartphones from companies like Apple and Samsung zig, Sony inevitably zags, and it’s how we ended up with the Xperia 1 line in the first place. The series has built its reputation on narrowcasting to Sony loyalists with world-first features that rivals don’t even consider competing against. However, that’s starting to change with the Xperia 1 VI. It’s still a killer all-rounder, with the line’s now-signature utilitarian design, a clean, near-stock Android user experience, and rare design quirks, like a physical headphone jack, dual front-facing stereo speakers, and a bezel-mounted front-facing camera. But for the first time since the original 2019 Xperia 1, concessions have been made on some of the series’ defining characteristics, such as the step down from a 4K resolution, 21:9 display to a brighter, squatter 19.5:9, Full HD+ panel. This shift in Sony’s approach runs much deeper, though.

The Sony Xperia 1 VI is an old-school flagship phone that will no doubt appeal to existing Sony phone fans. It's a powerful machine with great battery life, strong cameras, and a handful of rarely-seen features like a headphone jack and expandable memory. That said, Sony has skimped on the durability of the Xperia 1 VI's design, and the phone's “fast” charging capabilities pale in comparison to those boasted by similarly priced rivals.

If you’re a creative using a smartphone to create your content, then this is worth a look as a standalone device. If you’re using Sony’s Alpha mirrorless cameras, it’s also worth your time thanks to the way it ties into the ecosystem. For anyone else, this new flagship from Sony launches into an extremely competitive market, and you’ll need to weigh up the cost against the features you’re getting.

For anyone else, this new flagship from Sony launches into an extremely competitive market, and you’ll need to weigh up the cost against the features you’re getting.

With the Xperia 1 VI, Sony has taken a small step towards the mainstream without sacrificing its hardcore Pro credentials. While part of me is a little sad that the range has lost its unique 4K 21:9 display, the FHD+ 19.5:9 replacement is just plain better in most scenarios. While it’s a more balanced, usable phone than its predecessors, the Xperia 1 VI’s familiar design offers no compromise when it comes to the media focus. Battery life is also greatly extended and the innovative optical zoom camera has been improved with even greater range and a cool new macro function. The main camera is more pleasant to use, too, though it’s still mostly geared towards photography enthusiasts. Further improvements in the camera’s point-and-shoot credentials, together with a lower asking price, improved cooling, and an extended software support promise, could be all Sony needs to enter the flagship big leagues.

With its new shape and simplified software, there are fewer reasons to reject the Xperia 1 VI and enjoy its variable telephoto camera, bright screen and enhanced connectivity over rivals. But the cost of the phone, and the fact it's not available in the U.S., are two big problems that could spoil all the other benefits for a typical buyer.

I know I’m probably going to get it in the neck from the very loyal Xperia fans on this one, but sadly I remain a little disappointed by the latest flagship device here. If this was an £800 phone, then I’d be more forgiving. But, the fact that it’s a super-expensive device from a company which I know should be capable of producing much better results leaves me, once again, fairly cold. That’s not to say that the Xperia 1 VI is inherently bad. It’s not. It can produce some good results in certain conditions, and gives you lots to work with if you want those manual controls, and it’s got some neat tools for streaming and content creation. But there are just too many problems to give it too much of a glowing endorsement, and the competition out there just beats it far too readily, especially if your primary aim is to easily take high-quality photos.

In the end, the Xperia 1 VI represents one of the first Xperia phones to come with no major compromises. It’s no longer a phone that will only appeal to Sony camera users, or professional photographers and videographers. Yes, it’s got a camera with lots of those pro tools still, but the easy automatic camera mode, combined with some brilliant results, market-leading battery life and flagship performance – wrapped in a grippy, skinny, lightweight phone – are things anyone can appreciate. What you might not appreciate, however, is the £1300 price tag. Sony is asking for a lot of outlay for a phone that is, in most ways, about the same as a Galaxy S24 Plus. Cameras aside, that is a top-notch Samsung phone which costs £300 less, comes with a longer software commitment, reliable security patches and a wider variety of third-party cases and accessories. As brilliant as it is, at £1300 in the UK, and no availability in the US, it’s probably the best phone nobody will buy.

In low-light conditions, Sony claimed it has achieved performance close to a full-frame sensor camera due to the two-layer transistor pixel technology that separates photodiodes and pixel transistors on different substrate layers, which are then stacked together. This results in reduced noise in low-light images, and as seen by the shots we took in the low-light testing booth, the Xperia 1 VI does excellently with little noise and accurate skin tones.

Reviewing the Sony Xperia 1 VI, a big departure from the regular flagship smartphone design including a new display and camera app updates. The Mark 6 is great for creators, gaming etc, but beware - the Sony Xperia 1 VI is also expensive, so better get saving! I've been testing this phone for over a week and here's my thoughts so far. Check out my other smartphone reviews here on Tech Spurt! Now, while Sony often slaps multiple camera apps onto its premium handsets, the Xperia 1 VI makes do with a single, more standard offering. You still get some photo pro controls, but no video pro setup just yet. All the same, I like the streamlined setup and the Mark 6 can happily snap great looking portrait photos with minimal processing. The Sony Xperia 1 VI is cracking for gaming as usual.

This is a tough question, especially when we factor in the asking price. If you're a Sony fan, you're probably glad that the Japanese company still continues its smartphone journey. Some of you may perceive the FHD+ screen as a downgrade, but don't forget, it's LTPO now and quite brighter than the panel on the previous model. The software experience has been revamped as well, and now it's much more suited to the regular user and not the extreme photography enthusiast. Whether or not this change of direction will translate into sales, we don't know yet. Sony kind of took a leap of faith with this model. Has it worked? Yes, and no. Asking $1,399 after a clear downgrade in resolution won't make people happy. The new aspect ratio makes the phone modern and familiar but takes away the cool and original vibe the previous Xperia flagship had.

The Sony Xperia 1 VI is a great phone in a bubble, combining excellent battery life with a quality display, booming front-firing speakers, ample power and impressive camera hardware. Its macro photo and video capabilities shine, and with no major chinks in its armour beyond pared-back photo processing, Sony's made a great 2024 flagship. Costing more than an iPhone 15 Pro Max, though, the Xperia 1 VI remains a niche option.

The new Xperia 1 VI is finally here, and Sony is changing things this time around. In a surprising shift in product strategy, the new Xperia 1 VI is shedding some of the lineup's staple features. But you also get new ones which allows it to compete better with the market leaders. Despite these changes, the phone retains its core quirky identity, continuing to cater to creators and smartphone power users. Check out our video review to learn ALL YOU NEED TO KNOW about the phone's top features, build and screen quality, battery life, performance, and camera image quality.

All in all, the Xperia 1 VI is the best Xperia yet. The standard aspect ratio, the lower resolution and the implementation of an LTPO OLED all play a big role in our assessment. The new display is probably the reason why the device got this impeccable battery Active Use Score. We also liked the loud and nicely-tuned speakers, making this phone the ultimate multimedia device. However, the unremarkable video quality with the zoom camera, the uncompetitive charging speed and the underwhelming performance tuning of the Snapdragon 8 Gen 3 keep us from giving this phone an excellent score. Especially considering the launch price. Then again, if you are a photography nerd, you will definitely appreciate the solid hardware at hand here coupled with excellent battery life and various Pro-oriented modes and settings for photos and, eventually, for videos (coming with an update this Fall). Whether that would be enough to give the Sony Xperia lineup the push remains to be seen.

At 1,399 euros it's not the cheapest flagship out there, as well, so once again the premium price might limit this phone to the hardcore Sony fans.

Instead of stubbornly doing its own thing like past efforts, the Xperia 1 VI feels like a more conformist take on the Sony flagship formula. The screen aspect ratio, resolution and refresh rate are more in keeping with the rest of the phone world, as does the more hands-off photo processing. There aren’t multiple manual camera apps to overwhelm less experienced snappers, either. I still think there are better choices for point-and-shoot photographers, but there’s much less in it than previous generations. It still looks the part, has all the fan-favourite features, and delivers excellent battery life. Performance is easily on par with high-priced rivals, and those stereo speakers are a treat for the ears. The combo makes this my new favourite phone for gaming, too; shove it into a Backbone controller and little else can match it.
