Juan is one of the few Tech KZbinrs doing Xperia phones justice for years! 👍👌

[@karo3529]

So, Xperias are doing less compression to give higher quality (and this is why they heat up), which probably no other phone does. This is why Xperias are best for videos. This kind of technical information is what no other reviewers do. This is very interesting information.

[@hermanjohnson9180]

Yeah, I'm proud to own an Xperia 1 series.

Nobody has ever tested phones like this Sony overheated after x amount of time but no one ever mentioned the amount of data Sony processed in that amount of time Amazing content like always 👍😎

Dearest, You are the top Xperia tester in regards of proving the paper numbers on real life. But please help my testing by an answer for Xperia 1mk4 and mk5 in comparison for you having both. For this 64.1.A.0.891/913 mk4's latest firmware upgrade. 1. The slow shutter speed in lowlight 1s manual at 64-200 ISO manual, in the pictures appeare burned/coloured chaotic pixels that ruins the image overall (telephoto is the worst!).This is still happening for you? 2. The low light videos are very dark and its flash is better/stronger on photo than as video torch. Is this issue for your devices mk4 and mk5? Can you recoomend a specific setting/app to have more light (HDR is not helping)? 3. Front cam missing manual and bokeh big time for its wanna-be and how would you get a front selfie bokeh in the mk4 and mk5 compared to you? 4. Even Xperia now have amazing screen brightness after getting warmer the brighness dims and then the OLED have ghosting on mk4 this is on mk5 also? So can you please make a video with these comparisons tests for the latest firmware upgrades and give some good advices? More even, to send these issues to the software engineers, for that Xperia 1 mk4 to have a chance to its wanna-be? Some people as I know in my country are very dissapointed by this fact and Sont don't even answer to their e-mails with these issues still unsolved. Thank you so much for helping! PS: Crapsung is doing crap for Xperia also, Sony should have known that before and test its wanna-be's!

This is the most informative smartphone video comparison I've ever seen.

[@Guuzaka]

I was expecting the Sony Xperia 1 IV to be the 1st one out, but it was not! 😲 Even though it was the 2nd one out, once I learned that it lasted nearly 1 hour while having twice the bitrate, this made me even more impressed it. 👏🏾 The way this was presented was very knowledgeable and thorough. 🤓

[@10ToesDownWithBass]

wow, a review that actually reviews the devices instead of the reviewer going on a long tangent about how the company should instead make more mainstream phones. this is pretty neat. deserves more views.

[@yabaoz]

No other reviewer mentioned the higher bitrate ever before.. there is a huge gap between the Xperias and other manufacturers, thats insane. Great comparison, Juan.👍

[@neilmcguinness4422]

Flagship phones like the IPhone 14 Pro Max and S23 Ultra have high bitrate video options.

The Xiaomi 13 Ultra and Sony Xperia 1V I truly want!!! They are both so damn intresting!!!!

[@greecemobile7610]

The heck, sony didn't drop frames with 3 times higher bit rate than the 13 ultra but the Xiaomi did. The most interesting thing about this video is the difference between the 13 ulta and the vivo since both records at the same bit rate. Do you know the average fps about those 2 phones and also the final temperature? Just to see the difference between Mediatek and Qualcomm..

[@LetsBringThePain]

I remember taking 40+ min 4K 60 FPS video with my Xperia 1 IV, so I was sure and this video is a great proof that 1 V will do just fine with a better SOC 😀

[@s89kw]

Wow sony Xperia 1 iv did a great time recording It seems that the latest system updates have made this phone better also Xperia 1 v did a crazy time recording with 4k 120 fps

[@lashunmagee3367]

Excellent video! Thanks Juan!

[@ch.e.2216]

Just awesome, there are not many reviewers out there putting things into a context rather than just comparing specs and complaining about results or facts without looking at the whole picture. Just like cars I would not expect from a Porsche the same performance at 110 degrees as at 70 degrees and at the same time complain about the way too small trunk for a 4person family..🤪 love your reviews, keep it going! Cheers from Germany!

Great job on another great detailed video juan.

[@nikandfor]

I like your not a mainstream choice of topics to review and the depth of digging into details!

[@TheConkyDragon]

The Xperias will still remain underrated despite all of this but its great to see these kinds of tests instead of just hearing someone say "the phones overheat quickly" without much context. On a side note, I love that MAXX figure on your shelf.

[@SomeGadgetGuy]

I adore the maxx ... That comic reshaped my idea of comics storytelling without just being a cynical "grim dark" or satire. It's amazing.

[@ahmedabdi5980]

Thank you so much for this review. This is so eye-opening because most of the tech reviewers were shitting hard on Sony. Seeing how extremely well the Sony 1V performed & even how well the 1 IV did in comparison to what other KZbin reviewers said about it, I'm extremely impressed by Sony. I'm now even more convinced to buy the Sony Xperia 5V because it has the main lens of the 1V. I don't care so much about the zoom lens since it's not its best quality of lens anyways & the screen is 1080p instead of the 4K the 1V has, which consumes more battery & will make the phone hotter. I hope in the future Sony makes a 5VI or 5VII with LTPO, 256GB, Telephoto, maybe a 2K screen even though it's not a deal breaker if it doesn't because 1080p is good & it'll mean less heat & longer battery life

[@joelconolly5574]

This year's phone definitely do not overheat as much as they do in the past years. Definitely something to look forward too.

[@NizarNoor]

Thanks to Snapdragon 8 Gen 2!

[@inSaNe_44]

Yes, but way too overpriced. Sadly.

It doesn't overheat as much, but it still overheats. 43 Celsius after 30 min of KZbin

You should make same test outside .As its different humidity and we have wind which make differrences to cool down too .Also same test with HDR video .Cheers

Another great video Juan. Can't say I was surprised that the Pixel tapped out first but it was working harder than some of the other phones. My take home message from this video is that these phones can accomplish a lot and for most of the time, we don't even come close to pushing them to their limits. Xperia 1 V is a monster! Loving it

You really hit some points that are way more professional than your usual average consumer would deal with on a day to day basis. And for Sony to do what other companies wouldn't do and then go like nah it's not enough we doing it better that shows what level of pro grade phone the Xperia is. ❤

[@nikytamayo]

This is the big one for those of us who actually work with these things! I've sometimes struggled with frame rate drop while doing in car video in summer heat, and it isn't always practical to shove a phone cooler on when you're mounting to the windshield. Suxks to need to switch back to am older pre 8 Gen 1 phone for work like that. I actually carry two phone cameras when covering events just to avoid down time. Yeah, at that point, some people would just go phone plus camera, but two (or three) phones are still more pocketable than a phone & camera combo.

[@SomeGadgetGuy]

More and more likely to get kicked out of events with a legit camera now too.

[@nikytamayo]

@@SomeGadgetGuy I started using cellphones for published car photography because security gets antsy when you park and pull out a "professional" camera. Even a compact mirrorless. If you're pulling over and whipping out a phone, they'll assume you're just Instagramming. And then you get to theaters and events venues... granted, when I'm shooting am event, I do wish for better low light and flash performance, but they're usually well lit!

@@nickthaskater right? But according to Gsmarena it is not.

[@weeliano]

My Sony Xperia Pro-1 overheats like crazy as well, I found one solution is to get a gaming phone cooler fan. It's a peltier type cooler with a fan built in and it can extend my video recording time for a while, though you might pick up the fan noise on the mic.

[@KeithBab]

The bit rate issue is complicated. A high bit rate can be just because they want better quality, or they could in fact be saving power and skipping some of the encoding steps. Canon cameras used to record at very high bit rate because they didn't have the CPU power to do the compression.

[@jakedailey1054]

So the higher bitrate is likely due to wanting to save processing power for capture rather than for compression? This was the biggest question I had while watching this video: Why such a high bitrate for the Xperias?

[@nikytamayo]

could that be the secret for those of us stuck with other phones? Just get a third party app that does more direct encoding?

[@KeithBab]

@@nikytamayo the issue is how fast it can store data. Some phone have slow storage, so higher compression would be needed to keep the bit rate below the maximum rate of the storage device.

[@KeithBab]

@@jakedailey1054 without doing an analysis of the resulting files it if imposible to say whether the high bit rate is actually making fit a better quality video, or just a larger one.

[@nikytamayo]

@@KeithBab gotcha. I should check my onboard and see what kind of storage it is.

[@magicshon]

I think video footage recording will behave very differently when its a static shot like this compared to something moving making the autofocus and stabilization work harder

[@SomeGadgetGuy]

Yes. By design. I can't account for every phone being handled in EXACTLY the same way. Even building a ridiculous rig to mount all six at the same time, phones on the outside of that rig would be handled differently than phones on the inside of that rig. Basically, anything you do beyond my setup here will additionally tax each phone and likely reduce overall recording time.

[@magicshon]

@@SomeGadgetGuy Always good to find a base line. This makes me wonder about the bit rate too. Do phones use variable bit rate? In that case it would make sense to have a small bit rate on a static shot like this and the sony could be seen as bad for not adapting it. If its fixed then its a clear winner of course.

[@Pedro_opc]

This should be shared by Sony themselves. Everyone talking Sh*t about overheating and it turns out the bitrate is double than its competitors

[@Soundsaboutright42]

Man, been wondering about this and what your thoughts are on the phone.

I'll leave the shallow "sony names are so CONFUSING" reviews to others. I think this stuff is more fun.

[@chrisogrady28]

Hey Juan, have you found the 1V to actually shoot reliable frame rates? Like when at 4K120 does it drop frames? My friend sent me some iphone "120" footage and it was a nightmare to edit, it varied from like 70 to 110 and never actually hit 120

[@SomeGadgetGuy]

I shoot really short clips in 4K120, but dropping them into Resolve, I don't see a lot of dropped frames. Resolves lists them all as 119.8. Stats on VLC look similar. It's kind of remarkable considering the sony bitrate in HEVC is 150Mbps.

[@chrisogrady28]

That's great to know thanks, as I am trying to add phone footage into a resolve timeline with proper camera footage I need those frame divisions lining up properly. It's obscene that all the other phones are trying to push their on-paper specs, but can't actually deliver in the real world@@SomeGadgetGuy

Juan; after watching your FIVE videos on this handset I've preordered this; it is due out on 29th June here in the UK. The overheating is what tipped me towards upgrading my Xperia 1 IV which I really like, but at times the screen gets really hot.

[@SomeGadgetGuy]

So these new phones will get really hot too when you drive them hard, but they handle those thermals a LOT more gracefully. Samsung owes the entire phone industry a big apology.

[@aideyp7333]

@@SomeGadgetGuy it's almost as if they did it on purpose as the UK and Europe always put down their Exynos CPU in their flagships compared to the rest of the world. It was always seen as the slightly worse performing on synthetic benchmarks and it was later getting gaming enhancements features.

[@alphatoinfinity777]

How did you get such long recordings with the Xperia 1 iv? I tried a similar test myself with airplane mode and dimmed screen but 5 min in the overheating warning came on. Why the big difference? If I could record for 30 min, I would keep my 1 iv as I like to record instructional videos…I will probably get the 1 v but if I can keep the 1 iv, I would. Anyways, thanks for the video

[@fadelabdurrahman3469]

This is why i always told people that Sony Xperia 1 series are not mere "flagship" phone. They are phone for professional that are aimed for specific kind of users. It is very rare to find a phone that is specifically built for certain target nowadays.

What's the bitrate of 4k120?

[@DorianLust]

8:46 Are you sure higher bitrate means more processing? RAW data isn't compressed and produces a big file. It's all about the compression settings. More processing can produce better quality and smaller size. So I don't think bitrate means much if the quality isn't set to an equal setting.

[@Joxe-qp6bq]

Good point!!! Well that would be a win for others if they need half the bitrate to achieve the same quality... It would be interesting to know which phone gives best video recording

[@archie7288]

Still don't understand why no one companies moving into av1 yet, the sd 8gen2 had that features already

[@OmarSS87]

Software costs money. Nobody wants to spend on this

[@andoletube]

Hi Juan, I don't really understand how the Sony is recording double the data for the same resolution and frame rate. Does that mean there is more information being recorded on the Sony, somehow? Or is it something to do with the files being less compressed? I always thought you had a certain number of pixels at a certain rate, and that's your data - but obviously there's a lot more to it.

[@SomeGadgetGuy]

Video is just like any other media. You can take the raw data off a CD or make an MP3. You can take the full camera sensor data or make a jpg. As soon as you make a smaller "package", you can adjust how much info you're saving.

Now that the Pro-I is $999 with the vlogging kit, is that a competitive option because of the larger sensor, or is the new sensor here better because of the dual layer design? I pre-ordered the 1 V but saw the Pro-I at Best Buy for 999. It's a gorgeous looking phone that looks very professional.

It a a pity we cannot choose the bitrate in camera and video pro app. I am almost sure that would help with Xperia 1 IV overheating since even in 4k@60 I still dont manage to get over 5-10 mn without overheating. Also lesser bitrate might allow Sony to have other functions working while recording....

When posting videos into any social media sites, there would always practically be some compression in those videos. KZbin happens to have less compression compared to some other social media sites, but there's still some quality loss overall from the raw footage. The higher bit rate of Xperia assures that it would retain more of the original quality even when heavily compressed, whereas the others would've already looked unusable in the same situation. Try watching in 144p, perhaps the difference will be significantly more pronounced.

Yes the comment above is correct, where you see the video shot by xperia because you need to see in real life not on social media because social media has limited bitrate

[@Joxe-qp6bq]

@@troy5568 lol 144p will look bad for me whatever the bitrate...my limit would be 360p

[@Joxe-qp6bq]

@@ybitv5475 I don't notice that difference in bitrate between my Galaxy and 1 IV...will look more into it. Thanks

Try put phone in Fly mode so not has everything else on going in phone it help a lot in my Xperia 5 March III when take of other functions so Fly mode on get longer Recording time 👍

What is the pro of that sony xperia iv 120mbps?

[@FAT8893]

Higher bitrate means more quality. You can downscale the video output to 10x less bitrate and it still retains the same quality you get with 120Mbps bitrate.

Good channel. Nice leader. Thanks to your videos, I realized how cool the camera is in Sony phones. It's great, but dude. ) Inches, faringheits, halons, nifiga is not clear. You are watched from other countries, please make footnotes in more familiar measurement systems. Thank you. )

[@Joxe-qp6bq]

Yeah please dismiss Fahrenheit, Celsius degrees are a lot cooler :-)

[@tegkgiof]

@@Joxe-qp6bq I support. I think so too. )))

Wonder how big the contribution of the Cam Sensor is to the heat development. Xperia I IV and V have the smallest Sensors in this comparison i think. Also the most heat was generated close to the cam Sensor. Imteresting would be a Xperia Pro I. Big Sensor that was not developed for small Phones and the slim Xperia cases together should be a lot of heat ^^

[@SomeGadgetGuy]

The XPERIA 1v and Pixel 7 pro now have similar sized main camera sensors.

[@OmarSS87]

Larger sensor produces more heat. Also depends on other characteristics of sensors, fab process, etc Imx400 of XZ premium was very power hungry Sony claims new imx888 uses less power than usual exmor because new dual layer

[@rwilifeandtravel1854]

Fantastic comparison. I did not realise that the Xperias were using such high data rates with the cinema pro app. It goes to show how serious Sony are about the app. What data rates are camera pro and video pro apps using?

Brutal el nuevo Xperia 1 mark 5

[@Mr.YKK90]

Sony Mark IV. - First to throttle, my guess would be. 😉👍

Looking more and more to Juan video, i'm more convinced that many other big subs "tech reviewer" might just be an average consumer with editing teams, just lending his/her voice in sales pitch oriented video because of paid parnership or affiliated link😂. in my opinion Tech reviewer should be having unbiassed statement backed with factual data and neutral, cause we trust reviewer opinion as neutral 3rd party outside the seller. we should be more aware to differentiate people who make "fancy" video for living, and people who make video to educate other people who might spend their money on some product. Thank you for listen to my ted talk 🙏
