LG V50 vs Sony XPERIA 1: The REAL Pro-Grade Camera Showdown!

Realy. Honor to JUAN

[@BjayawesomeBlackDude]

Well - Yes, so the LG V40-STAB it's almost the same cameras setup. V50 Snapdragon 855 and V40 845 snapdragon. BUT lg V40 has more bands (66-71) just way more 4G LTE bands, LG V50 has stupidity design - no barely 4G LTE bands but it got a spanky new 5G,.. now go ahead and wrap your head around that ones? Another stupid move on both company Tmobile wasn't pushing for an LG V50,. So you gotta either hunted down an Europe or Korean unlock (maybe supposedly factory) model W/no 5G.

Color balance and potrait modes were similar but LG G8 had the edge on contrast and showing actual color. Now to my question or help needed.. Does the LG v50 take the same type of pictures in selfie mode? Or are they similar? Or is the V50 even better? I couldn't find the v50 today in stores to test it.

I really can't agree more except one thing that they should allow bootloader to be unlocked rooting lg V series makes it a mutant beast. Just because how crank hard bootloader they made on LG V40 discouraged me to buy it.

As expected lg v50 is a better phone.. but it is a leap forward for sony.. so much improvement especially in camera department with xperia 1.

[@Conceptcreator]

It is so annoying though you cannot use the second and 3th sensor... like why? Not to mention how the app has some weird things with Sony.... While I get Sony can focus more on Manual which is fine, there is no reason for Automatic to not do well? I mean don't get me wrong in sunset and colors it beats Samsung with better colors most of the time, but man it is a shame how it falls short for those who don't use manual controls

[@SomeGadgetGuy]

It really is ALL OR NOTHING. Would be nice to have a little halfway, but once you get used to using manual mode, even if you leave all the options on auto, there really is no going back.

[@Conceptcreator]

@@SomeGadgetGuy that is somewhat of a fair statement. But if you want to sell to the bigger groups I don't think you can walk that path? For me for instance gotta be fair, manual mode (apart from b-roll I just hardly use it because I don't plan to shoot something. Neither do I like it when people see me take a picture so I just do it like undercover automatic haha. (also my lack of knowledge on proper Manual mode prevents me from giving advice in that because it would be false information) But I do get what you are saying though. Manual mode simply does allow for much more freedom and amazing results! I mean take the Nokia 9 pureview. Man seen some shots that are AMAZING!! with manual it could easily beat some other big dogs. But it's automatic mode was "meh"

[@pell222]

Really leaning towards an LG, which is surprising me. But my biggest uses are audio, (including wired audio), still photography, and social media, and my dealbreakers are bloatware and screen vibrancy/resolution. My Galaxy s7 has spoiled me with a pretty screen but 3 years on i'm deeply resentful of the carrier and Samsung OEM apps (leaving me with triplicates when i add a version i actually like!) taking up an unconscionable amount of its storage. LG seems a little more reasonable there. I'm a little wary of not getting timely software updates with LG, so I think my next choice might be Nokia and they're missing a host of midrange options that have the 3.5mm jack in the united states and I'm not sure I'm committed enough to import. I liked your G8 videos a lot, I guess I'll have to sit tight as you work with it for a while and see if I should go for V50 instead.

Very well rounded. However, I think you missed a very important factor for any content creator that may at least get the two awesome devices back to a draw again and that is the professional grade screen on the Xperia 1. What's your thought on that, sure would like to know.

[@the_matchless]

@Felix Aglon thanks for that one. I read the article and yes it's a big disappointment to see how Sony has falsely marketed the feature. It would've been much better if they hadn't said anything like that at all. Though the panel isn't bad it's the claim which is false.

[@menocorde]

fu24's gcams actually enable the v50 to output juicy raw from all 3 rear cameras.

[@QuickExpertReviews]

In terms of focus peaking, I've found that there are only two phones capable of doing that, while reviewing them, and that's Xiaomi Mi 9 and LG V40. Such a useful feature. But in an age where Samsung takes away manual video controls (including the latest greatest Note 10), and companies like LG Mobile and Sony lay off their mobile division staff, it doesn't look like manual controls are here to stay. It would be great if at least Filmic Pro, would work as good on Samsung phones as it is on iPhones, LG and Sony (Xperia 1) handsets, but it is what it is. Great video man.

Good video but you missed a few points for the Xperia. Didn’t touch on the picture profiles which can change the look of video, or demonstrate what HLG video looked like once it was graded, or if the LG even shot HDR Or what it’d look like. People interested in making content won’t just staple together raw videos without applying some color grading or look. Seems like an incomplete comparison...

[@TheFPSPower]

LG also has picture profiles, quite a lot of them, you can color grade the video however you want, and the LG does shoot in HDR, I have all of that in the V30, so I expect even better from the V50. He can't show you an HDR sample in this video because all of it would have to be HDR and would look bad for people who don't have it. Maybe he can upload a sample of each phone.

[@rm1825114]

TheFPSPower it doesn’t have to be raw HDR but something graded to look like it? And I wouldn’t know the LG had picture profiles because that area was completely omitted from this video. It would be nice to see what those looked like because I’ve seen the ones on the Xperia and they look cinematic.

It still baffles me how hard it to include a native raw support on an Xperia phone. The flagship Xperias are almost always so well made and they always lack that little something, be it a more than great build quality, excellent sound or full raw capture.

[@cubul32]

Given that it doesn't operate the tele in manual, I think Note 20 is still the best option as you can get Moment case, ND filters (very important, especially without light leaks) and various lenses from Moment. With AIS+OIS. If Samsung had all 3 lenses on, with LG's app like control, and 10 bit video, or even raw, then they'd cannibalize the world of phone content creation (but stupid is too stupid to know they're stupid - at least let 3rd party apps do their own thing). Whatever Samsung doesn't give me I can get with mcpro24fps/filmicpro/Moment (and a half a bag of moneeeeh).

Good work Juan. We need more reviews like this. Thanks for bringing up the 21:9 limitation of Cinema Pro. It's a huge problem for trying to create standard 16:9 KZbin content.

I've found my 2012 macbook pro's weakness. 2160P 60FPS 4K video. The dedicated card was only a slight improvement over the integrated graphics but both were unwatchable.

[@SomeGadgetGuy]

Bummer.

[@jimjones3287]

@@SomeGadgetGuy yea..1440P played smooth so I still got some eye candy. Amazing how these smartphones are getting so powerful. Watching again right now on my LG V30 ♥️

[@lionelb8227]

Focus peaking, this is the feature I'm missing on my Xperia 1. I don't use Cinema Pro honestly, but for stills, I can sometimes wish it was here. Something funny though is how these 2 phones are well under the radar for a lot of people, but they're so good, not following the trends that a lot are trying to set as the standard (HDR everything for example).

[@SomeGadgetGuy]

Especially when HDR got really good on the G8 and V50, they have dedicated night modes for ALL rear lenses, and you still have manual controls for photos and videos. Then techies shrug and say "b-b-b-but Samsung is more popular".

[@lionelb8227]

@@SomeGadgetGuy Absolutely, some don't even check what they have in terms of settings, or don't take the time to. For example, the HDR is very different between Superior Auto and Manual mode on the Sony, or there is a setting for lens distortion correction but I read reviews saying "lens correction is bad"... Sure, there's maybe less people interested in these phones, but that doesn't excuse the poor reviews they're getting, that's about the quality of the work you want to deliver.

[@bobcoco6047]

Thx for covering these subjects no one cares on the Ytb area, & that few would cover properly anyway ;) I generally have to go on stores & investigate into the expo models, to discover what's there, & what's not... Of c, LG is in none of those stores, so that's why we're here ^^ Since in EU, LG is playing with our patience like ghosts in Packman, I chose the S10 for specific reasons, & I'm h... not fully happy, but I find the overcomings to every quirk, ending up with a pretty nice set of productivity. For Instance, I will buy an app I didn't want to so far, to get full manual controls on other phones than the kings in this video: Filmic pro. Pricey, buggy for many according to reviews on the PlayStore, yet now the compatibility improved with Galaxy's, so I'll give it a shot, as I found no reliable alternative, & it still allows most of what I'd get with the V50 or Xperia 1 (except audio quality of LG, but the DAC is decent, & I have extrnl XLR mic so I'll live with that; + I've the V20 for audio only situations, eventually).

[@jimmydacell9788]

What case is that on the V50, i want one for my phone

[@SomeGadgetGuy]

It's the Korean dual screen case. Unfortunately the carries in North America likely won't support it.

[@bigjt37]

Luv it. Great review.

[@Mr2pint]

Seems LG never get to mention these days except for your channel and that's a shame. While the likes of Samsung do a way with any pro mode in video and get all the Limelight and reviews along with other manufacturers that do nothing Pro in video capture.

[@StomerMadGermzOfficial]

been waiting for so long lol , hello V50

[@thowusahmad6709]

Where we can buy the LG a leather case like you brother?

[@xenjira]

Ebay or amazon , dual screen case tho its only for korean version

I think it's time to sell some "But I Digress" merch Juan!!

I need to come up with a good design. I am not a graphic designer...

Thinking about getting LG V35 refurbished, seen some going for 200-250$, considering it has snapdragon 845 and price is so low. Maybe i should give it a shot ? currently using Pixel XL, software is the only strength. I thought Gcam is beast, but i miss my LG G4 with V10 app ported. and i would say Lg was better. Pixel has video focus problems and hard time focusing in low light.

@@troytruong8246 thanks for late response. Got v35 month ago. great phone but camera sensor quite weak. Gcam is a must

[@thaddeus2447]

@@troytruong8246 I have mirrorless fuji X-T2 so i like that there is manual on V35, had LG G4 couple years ago, and i would say it somehow had better sensor. Yes indeed v35 is kinda weak, but it has great camera app
