In the world of iphone, Samsung, Xiaomi, there's a beast in the corner waiting (Sony xperia) ❤️

[@si35-manga]

Finally someone is reviewing this phone, who also knows how to shoot great photos! I looked through several reviews before this one. The reviewers all complained about the quality of the photos when ... they were just bad photographers, who couldnt setup the camera angles and functions properly. Love to see your photos! They really are an amazing display of your talent and also what the phone is capable of - in the right hands!

[@todoroki-kun5577]

Wow! The shots are something that you dont usually see with iphones and samsung!

[@neilmcguinness4422]

As a non Sony consumer looking in, I just have to say that you Sony appreciators in this comments section are a very intelligent and interesting and technically savvy lot, not like the rabid childish ranting fanboys and fangirls of other phone manufacturers. Respect to you all.👍

[@JVSONFILMS]

When the Mark 4 came out, I was hesitant to buy it but had to wait for the Mark 5 when I heard about the overheating problems and non-rotable camera app. You have now convinced me and I'm gonna get the Mark 5 ! Thank you for this amazing review and photoshoots.

[@chingsengdaring]

This phone is for professional not for ordinary people who want well contrasted, saturated, balanced coloured photo directly opening the camera 🤣 ive seen so many reviews and comparison of this phone by other youtubers. They always say its not good enough to compete with s22 or iPhone. Obviously they shoot only in basic mode like other phones. They didn't even tend to use the manual mode 🤣 but the way you took photos in this proves everything.

[@saint2972]

Well said

The shutter button is a really great feature and I hope other manufacturers will also adopt it! Smartphones definitely killed the compact camera market and major parts of entry/mid-level DSLM.

[@milenaveleva5274]

@@adilalkanzy1820 It was on Sony Ericsson phones long before xperia smartphones

[@RennieAsh]

Every phone can use volume as a "shutter button". It doesn't have a two step operation though. Most users probably wouldn't care for the dual step or find it "annoying" that they thought they took a photo but all they did was focus xD

[@yeetiesandwheaties]

Sony has had this feature for 10 years. If other companies were going to copy it, they would have done it by now.

you are a brilliant photographer, love your compositions every time! Really enjoyed watching this :)

Best review by far, great photography skills, thanks man, wishing you all the best :)

[@nick_cooper]

I've been using Sony phones for about 15 years now and love them. Getting the Xperia 1iii a few years ago got me in to photography, and I now use a DSLR. But I feel like my new Xperia 1V has replaced my lenses with a focal length under 70mm, it just feels so good.

[@lejournaldade]

I want it as my next phone ! the fonctions available and the sharpness are impressive 😮

[@Rock2005Star]

This was a fantastic review! Thanks for coming to Chicago and doing it as well!! I live only about 25 minutes away, so you choosing to come here made it extra special! All the improvements mentioned here like the vertical & horizontal view as well as added night mode and heavier use of computational photography/AI are welcome additions! I also love that they improved the heat sink/cooling capabilities too over the last phone. S-Cinetone is sweet! The standout shots here were the one of the birds as well as the beach and street ones at night for me! It would be really awesome if you did a photo of comparison test vs. the Google Pixel 7 Pro, which is my current phone. 👌👌👌

[@Natomac]

Point and shoot really vastly improved. For people wanting this phone but dont know how to operate like an expert, well Sony packed this phone with a beautiful camera now.

[@neilmcguinness4422]

Sony certainly needed to make the point and shoot abilities of the 1 V exceed those of any other of their devices to date. They seem to have achieved this, and I hope this device really sells well for them. And that people enjoy using it.

[@y.corazon9611]

Amen

It costs more than S Ultra and Pro Max. It seems to be decent, but it is so unaffordable and horrendous value.

[@ICEMANZIDANE]

@@stephaned3072 4k/120fps?? This phone does stuff which others simply cant AND the biggest difference between the Sony and others is that on the Sony your pics will have no or almost no ai sharpening, just look at iphones for example, they are right now the worst when it comes to ugly sharpening and that immediately gives away that the picture was taken on a phone…

[@stephaned3072]

@@ICEMANZIDANE he is thinking of replacing his camera with this phone. Im just saying that this wont replace the camera at all aspects. At that price id just buy a good phone for way less. Im talking about pro raw and other ways of getting close to unprocessed images.

I don't mind slight bezels, but Please find a way to make the front side all symmetrical top bottom and right and left both sides all symmetrical PLEASE!!! PLEASE PLEASE PLEASEEE,😢

Hi Pierre, Wow, Wow, what a great Smartphone, Smart it is. Great how you can have the Vertical Interface, it's good for us viewers to enjoy the experience of Vertical, instead of Horizontal. Love the low ISO, 25, 32, Etc and clean looking shots. Enjoyed the wide angle shots, Cityscapes, the window reflections. What a great idea having the Shutter Button like where a Camera is. Even in full auto looks great, Thanks for this video, I've learned something new today.

I will still keep the Sony Xperia 1 mark 4 .the pictures that you take in Chicago really looks professional and like a photographer just shows that the Sony is a proper camera phone a lot of people are realising the Sony is a good phone.. keep up the good work man once again nice video peace out 👍👍

manual focus was even on my old asus zenfone 6 - great phone... sadly now i miss all manual settings with my pixel 7pro... still hoping for an update... not sure why google is so stingy with just few extra manual sliders... focus, iso, shutter speed would be an excellent and basic starting point.

i used to love Sony. my very first phone was a secondhand T630. yes, that one with a joystick and keypad 😆 then switched to a slide up walkman phone (i don't remember the model) then switched to a samsung phone when touchscreen phones came out then back to Sony live with walkman. (i looove Sony's speakers and camera so much). bought a budget Samsung phone then a Huawei, then back to Sony xperia XZ. that was the last Sony I bought. i switched back again to Samsung as the XZ slowed down after a few years when I didn't get any more updates. currently using an S20+ and considering upgrading again. I was already looking into buying either S23 ultra or the new Iphone15 promax because of their camera but I guess i'm switching back to Sony because of this video 😂 loooove your photos!!

[@exfx8315]

@@vinibrian3867 in comparison to iPhone, I'm not too sure... What I am sure about is the quality of the built in speakers, they are really well balanced and the stereo sound is amazing. I think because of the chin and forehead it makes room for good speakers, and also, Sony are quite good in that department too. Obviously, a paired Bluetooth speaker will always sound better but they do a great job as far as phone speakers go. They don't sound horrible and tinny at full volume and I have actually watched a film or 2 with just the phone speakers and it sounds brilliant. Honestly, it gives a mad surround sound effect. As far as loudness goes, not the loudest phone I've heard, but loud doesn't always equate to good sound.
