Is Xperia 1VI Camera BETTER than Xperia 1V? 📸 Camera Test with a SURPRISE!

[@WhatGear]

Here is the Xperia 1VI auto mode vs Pro Mode video that I shot in London..,If you want to check it out : kzbin.info/www/bejne/rpKmaoaKmLKGb7s

[@jjeter1]

Thanks for doing this video Bro! 👍🏾💪🏾👊🏾🔥

[@jjeter1]

And throwing in the Pro-I🍻

[@mh7711]

Sony (1V and I guess 1VI) produces excelent (not overprocessed) Raw-Files that can be edited in Lightroom perfectly! You can raise the quality and details in the Sony Raws so much compared to their Jpgs. It is absolutely impressive. With Samsung S24u for example you get very bad Raws (Pro Mode and Expert Raw) because they are already highly processed and they are not real Raws, only processed Jpgs in a Raw-Container. A thirdparty app can solve this little bit (motionCam or gCam), but it is tricky and not always good. So for photograper-freaks the Sony is way better than any other phone.

I’m really enjoying your Xperia coverage! I preordered one, I can wait to play with the manual mode. Keep the great vids coming!

[@azizizmailov7014]

Hi, what phone are you upgrading from?

[@marhkox]

@@azizizmailov7014 Pixel 7. Love the camera, but want something more manual.

[@kaiser.watanabe]

Damnnn the VI really upgraded the HDR in photos and videos! I can't wait to get mine ❤

[@MezMan37]

Currently sitting on a V... I was going to upgrade, but think I will wait for the VII. Great video, thanks... Saved me a ton! 🤣

[@bloodytoad2010]

Photo quality and color will be similar. The pro I already demonstrated for your consumption.

[@gtx_UK]

After 5 years of being with Samsung, I've had enough! Terrible unrealistic colours, no expandable memory and gimmicky features... I am switching from Samsung to the new Sony Xperia 1 VI, it looks absolutely incredible!!

[@aashishnakarmi1690]

which samsung phone were you on?

[@gtx_UK]

@@aashishnakarmi1690 Samsung S24 Ultra. I regret getting this a couple of months ago!! The new Sony Xperia 1 VI is only £50 more expensive and people are complaining it's too expensive when it's clearly the better phone with expandable memory... 🤦

[@chrisoranje6606]

Same! Switching from the S22 Ultra to the Xperia 1VI. Better camera and hopefully better processor.

[@gtx_UK]

@@chrisoranje6606 my friend has the Sony Xperia 1 V and he received so many compliments from other people. They all asked him which iPhone is it which goes to show that the quality is outstanding and Sony Xperia is by far the better choice amongst Android devices

[@aiqalosky9449]

same..

[@muhammid99]

The only sad thing about the Xperia 6 reviews is that the people in the US will never know how good the phone is. Even if we got one from overseas we would not have the benefits of 5G on the US phone lines

[@jmaxim917]

Great video. I was correct 90% of the time. The VI is impressive.

[@splintercf]

I like the Xperia 1VI more, but I hope the software will improve in time.

[@spIette]

Very interesting comparison. I had the Pro-I before and quite loved taking photos with it because they are just so natural looking (no aggressive brightening of the shadows for example). However in the test in this video I was surprised of how split my choice for best photo was, pretty much evenly between the three phones, depending on the setting. I would have expected the VI to come out as a clear winner among these three. Interesting result for sure.

[@sosiehtesaus2652]

The Pro i still takes excellent photos.With the 1Vi, however, you notice that the new sensor can handle much higher ISO VALUES.And the battery really lasts twice as long and it reliably plays LDAC with full bandwidth and APTX Adaptive. Unfortunately, this wasn't possible with the Pro i. Otherwise the Pro i was simply fantastic

[@Roomyverse]

Great video and shows that if there's any difference between the two Xperia 1s then it's subtle. Nice to have a little sharper zoom details, though, and some night WB smarts, but 1V owners should be pleased that it generally looks like business as usual. If you won't miss that extra zoom detail, the macro and the 48mps mode then stick to the 1V, unless you desperately need the 1VIs extra battery life. Any notes from you on that, btw? If you fully charged both in the am, how much more did the 1VI have in the tank at day's end?

[@WhatGear]

That's a tricky one. I'm using the Mark 6 as my main phone. The other two didn't have a SIM card that day. So it's hard to say how the battery compared...that might be an interesting video to make.

[@St_Lucifer_Morningstar]

I must say I am impressed! The 1V holds it's ground really well!

[@45forall]

Too bad Sony released an update for the Mark V today. One could assume they changed something on the Xperia 1V.... More towards the 1VI.

[@Agent-xj5xe]

Excellent comparison of camera for 1 v and 1 vi. Also agree with your comment for the photo qualities. 1 VI is the apparent winner.

[@CHMernerner]

tip: they launched phone early (again) so photo app is not perfect. they said there will be updates soon

[@phillipwhittall7679]

I've got the S23 ultra, I upgraded from the xperia 1 mk II, I'll be going back to xperia next, the battery life with samsung has not been the best

[@Agent-xj5xe]

Not to mention Sony phones have a unique feature with one button press to activate camera anytime, which is really very useful when you want to have a quick snap of some scene.

[@gregorgregoric5945]

wow almost the same as 1V...a little disappointed...but I still think it's big Upgrade from my 1 iii...I pre-ordered 1 VI

[@EinzMY]

When you want maximum image quality, shoot in 48MP mode on the 1VI. And resize in post to whatever resolution. 👍

[@CL4MP]

Barely any difference except for the additional zoom range. And while the VI does a better job exposing the background in the first video, the foreground highlights are blown out and I do prefer the overall look of the 1V.

[@FAT8893]

Definitely intrigued by the 1 vi's new variable zoom camera, but I'm still not sure about going for it since it still has the same sensor size as before. Also, there will be the Snapdragon 8 Gen 4 with in-house Oryon CPU, so I'm conflicted even more.

[@natdenchfield8061]

in terms of brightness and a bit of white balance, it's relatively easy to pick Mystery, V and VI .. Mystery always being the most different and darker, the V being the my preference and the VI being of same white balance but slightly over-exposed (on my monitor, in my opinion). I'm watching this as I've just got a V (I like to stay behind to curve for cost reasons ...).

[@cristisun184]

The cameras are improved and it is still has the tendency to overexpose but it works like a top flagship camera at least as much as they can do with this tiny sensor in order to keep the results as natural as they can.The main sensor is doing a great job and I believe that if the PRO C will have a better sensor in order to complement the great manual software. In my opinion the new format suits better for utility even if I like the "unconventional" style more.Outaside of the screen res/ppi Sony device looks so good with real usable quality features(updated jack, all BT codecs, excellent sound software and this are FEATURES that no other device has, improved and more polished user interface, flagship cameras with😊 superb manual- auto adjustments, excellent color profiles display adjustments, great battery and more).I just have to wait for the price to drop.

[@drmoynihan]

And the 1 V has a USA VERSION. 😊

[@WebLeoTV]

excelent video! hope you can make a Zoom war between S24 Ultra and this amazing Mark VI (and test camera if you can too).

[@AsadMulla]

With such similarities between the V and VI, i feel all the more reason to not move to the VI just yet. That's not to say that I think the VI isnt better but that my V is still very good

[@bernardcaillouet5565]

This was an excellent breakdown of the three phones. I had hoped to make the Sony 1 VI my next phone, but I live in the states and we are not getting it. Do you think buying an international version will work with my carrier AT&T?

[@WhatGear]

That's a good question. Maybe check out the Xperia Reddit group. I think you might find someone there whose done it

[@bernardcaillouet5565]

Thanks.

[@omotuyiadebayo8883]

Please do a display comparison with other flagship phones, let's see how good the 1080 p screen against other flagships

[@CHMernerner]

well it is good(changed to 1VI from 1V)

[@amranibrahimrashidi]

I will get this phone soon so amazing camera and video I think. I am using 1iv right now..

[@krazyolie]

Nice, i think the tree was better on the v, but vi looks better on everything else

[@NLMusique]

I definitely would buy the Xperia 1 vi. I'm actually considering that but I'm worried that it might not work on the T-Mobile network. What carrier do you run your Xperia 1 vi on?

[@alikhan12301]

Please compare the quality of Sony xperia 1 v and sony xperia 1 vi and Samsung S24 ULTRA screen and show a video of playing video and photos in them. In bright and low-light environment / it is very important, whether by reducing the resolution in Sony xperia 1 vi, I actually see a low-quality image or a high-quality one.

[@UKRedSnow]

Got to say, I picked the Mark V or mystery in most of those, with the VI perhaps doing slightly better in low light/WB test. Not a great "upgrade" unfortunately.

[@nathanwyn9854]

Im uograding from am oppo flip n2 to the xperia mk6. Cant wait

[@carljames1411]

Would be more interesting if you had installed the camera app of the Xperia 1 VI on the 1 V. I did that and the pics and vids are brighter, more color true and have more contrast on my Xperia 1 V with the new app, compared to the photo pro app.

[@andrez3729]

What app is it?

[@t0pa]

Thanks for the well made comparision!! Thanks for your work. Is it for you possible to further compare it to an Pixel 8 pro or iphone 15 pro or samsung 24 ultra or Xiaomi 14?

[@t0pa]

Iphone test already done sorry haven't checked out all ur videos😅

[@oliverskinner8962]

​@@t0pa The Google and Samsung would make for a good 3 way test with the Sony... That's what I'm waiting for !

[@KriTaKriTaKriTa]

Thank you! 🌻

[@map00100]

Would you recomend xperia 1 VI for auto mode? Everybody writes and enjoy manual mode... What I like: decent photo, good size and perfect battery.

[@WhatGear]

The auto mode is very good now. However to get the most out of the phone the manual mode is still the best

[@joelconolly5574]

Good upgrade. Is it a £1299 upgrade no. Maybe if you can find the preorder deals they Basil from TechEdit found. Otherwise, solid upgrade compared to previous generations.

[@safisafihi4501]

hello, plz compare of display quality

[@pixels_per_inch]

Great comparison! Sony has improved significantly, especially in low light. Just curious, when you say HDR for videos, you mean "Wide dynamic range" mode right? Because for some reason I can't enable stabilization and WDR at the same time.

[@bloodytoad2010]

Yes. HDR stands for high dynamic range.

[@tremainemendez3160]

Wow, those video shots are absolutely terrible. No details, blown out.. thank you for the review. It just put my mind to rest and made me look towards Vivox100 Ultra. Please review that one for video if you get the chance 😊

[@WhatGear]

I hope Vivo will send it. I've not heard anything from them yet 😔

[@tiradmiral5532]

If you don't shoot HLG video you kind of loose a lot. You can use Video Creator down the road to convert HLG video to SDR. On the other hand, Wide dynamic range option is kind of a hit or miss as it has issues with texture rendering and it does nothing in low light, at least in Video Pro.

[@trilingualkid]

damn look at all that overblown areas...what the hell are people even thinking saying this is good?

[@the_matchless]

@9:59 wait what? Xperia 1v is catching more light than the 1Vi? Shouldn't it be the other way around? 🤔

[@lusilk7954]

london ,bro thank you nice vid

[@Brahh777]

Terrible HDR performance for the VI in the photo of the tree... Hopefully it was just a coincidence or it's fixable with a early firmware update.

[@muhammadtalhaimtiaz8616]

Well i wanted to know does xperia 1vi have haptics, something called dynamic vibration?? I really enjoy with bass music on my xperia 1 ii but no one seems to talk about that function

[@RennieAsh]

Maybe look on the product page? They could have removed the feature too

[@jukijunk]

I waited for the VI and was very disappointed, so i went with the V instead.

[@andrez3729]

Why do you choose the V? I have the Same one 🙏🏼👍🏼

[@AviusL]

5 beats 6 in video detail, imo. But 6 beats 5 in photo mode.

[@art-tb3um]

Strange. I liked xperia V photos in over 90 percent of scenarios. It wasn't too dark or overexposed.

[@nathanaelbartholomew]

The 6 is just a downgrade of the 4k screen. Nothing new.

[@SeanMarkey-o3z]

I’d have purchased if they didn’t drop the 4K screen. Don’t see the point in all the of camera hardware, recording at 4K etc. if it’s only viewable through a 1080p screen. To keep the same sensors and drop the screen res to still charge £1300 is actually crazy.

[@not_amanullah]

Headphone jack and sd card slot 🖤

[@Soundwave857]

13:12 it has a 1" type sensor but its not using the full sensor. The sensor has 20mp but due to the small lens only covers half of the sensor resulting in 12mp

[@famakate]

But it has it. For light gathering ehat counts is the pixel size not the senzor size

[@mikeellis5801]

nice video

[@carljames1411]

I thought the mystery phone was the iPhone. The colors of Xperia pro are outdated in my opinion and I don´t know why Sony does not fix that. I also think that Sony won´t update the photo pro app of 1 V, If they're even going to do that, until they sold enough to the Xperia 1 VI.

[@r.o.o.k.]

Pro-I looked the best imo. Much more natural.

[@famakate]

Yeah, it lacks only in the HDR shots

[@s89kw]

Xperia 1vi is amazing

[@jeevasundar9589]

Super, compare xperia vs s24 ultra

[@patton1977]

So the 5 is easily just as good in my opinion

[@WhatGear]

Slight hardware bump on the tele, big chip upgrade which also helps the image signal processing.

[@archie7288]

That's really terrible HDR blown out the background

[@alkeryn1700]

bought the VI it's the only decent flagship imo.

[@supashaker1]

Honestly I use to be a big Sony fan id always have there phones always preorder whenever one would come out now I always stay away they can never nail a solid phone that does great in all areas, again on paper they seem fantastic but real world use it's not all that great. I honestly believe I'll never buy another Sony phone again which is annoying as I don't want any Chinese brand phone Samsung isn't for my liking at all and I'd rather not bother with apple but I've only gone with iPhone for the fact that they hold value very well better trade in offers and if I wanted I can sell the phone at the end of a contract and get double that of an android.

[@eduardodavidzgalkaplan8253]

V AND Vi look the same

I do like most kind of dogs. They are just the best. I mean cats are ok as well but to be honest i am not really a cat person so much. There is a reason they say they are mans best friend i guess!

[@RedstoneinventeArmoredGuy]

Not bad,

[@victorrumyantsev3718]

Only telephoto lens is upgraded - one out of 4 lenses. That's rubbish. Also Xperia lost its unique 21:9 4k display. No uniqueness anymore. And all of this for £1300? No, thanks. I just ordered Oppo Find X7 Ultra for $700. F***k Sony!

[@invensys834]

But there also 24 mm 48 mm option on main camera now on vi - ?

[@victorrumyantsev3718]

@invensys834 Still not enough for paying that money for it. Even if you have Xperia 1 IV. Too minor upgrades and few downgrades. Everyone expected 1" main sensor at least. I remember Xperia 1 VI rumours about having all Lytia rear sensors... I wish that Xperia 1 VI had the same hardware like Oppo Find X7 Ultra...

[@nathanaelbartholomew]

I have the 1 mark 5, I am not even enticed to get the 6 by no means. And I have also decided that I won't buy another Sony after this. The specs are stagnant. I'm not much of a camera person, I liked the 4k display. But only the 5 has that, which is my last Sony.
