Sony Xperia 1 VI - ONE MONTH LATER!

[@MarkEllisReviews]

Are you a Sony Person?

[@MikesVegas]

I love Sony, but dang, their phones are pricey 😬

[@DamianNocun]

I really tried to justify decision and keep Mark VI however after more than a week with the phone decided to choose S24 Ultra instead. Here are my cons/pros (i know it is long, but maybe it will help someone to decide :) : Xperia Audio: more bass, less spacious, Battery: very good performance, great standby results, drop during the night only 1% Indoor photos (gray conditions): less noise, more sharp outcome. White balance rather cool, whole shoot is sharp, better macro capabilities. Indoor photos (dark conditions): much less noise, much sharer outcome, better highlights management Video overall: lack of sharpness, Xperia 1 V recorded much clearer video over VideoPro app. Video Zoom: soft, lack of saturation, stabilization could be much better Video night: needs software improvement, too shaky stabilization, lots of noise. Additional features: Memory card slot, 3.5mm audio port, Extra: less premium feeling while holding it in hand, but is much more comfortable due to size and weight S24U Audio: much more specious sound, with slightly less bass. Battery: great battery performance after updates, average standby, drop during the night by 3% Indoor photos (gray conditions): more noise, sharpness present in the center of the shot, little green tint, more warm white balance Indoor photos (dark conditions): much more noise, photo is sharp in the center, worse highlights management Video overall: much sharper, with higher dynamic range. Little bit more saturated, Video Zoom: clearer picture, sharper, very good stabilization, saturation is just on the good level, Video night: lack of lens flares, sharpness is OK, sometimes appearing magenta/green tint. Additional features: S-Pen, DeX, Antireflecting display coating, Extra: premium feeling while holding in the hand, little bit less comfortable however with bigger screen. Verdict: I decided to stay with S24U. This is more complex phone as a whole package (we should remember that phone is not only about camera). System navigation is smooth and phone has much more features which justify price more than in Xperia case. Sony still needs few software updates to fix some issues, for instance there is a weird lag which appears while phone changing panel refresh rate. Video has a lot to improve, there is a lot of sharpening applied to photos in auto mode.

They aren't underestimated at all. I've owned my 1iv for nearly 2 years and it performs worse than just about all my other Sony devices in terms of what it is supposed to do. The overheating is terrible

[@michaelnielsen9685]

Disagree strongly. Just switched my Sony Xperia 1 IV for a VI. Until my new VI, the former one, was my best phone ever, which includes a series of Sony devices, but also iPhone, Samsung, HTC, LG and Nokia. Overheating was a minor issue, but is now fixed in Xperia 1 VI...

[@RoadVlog]

I had some issues with software on my 1mkIII, but overall I'm very happy with this phone. Wasn't happy about front camera performance too but I don't use it often. Sony is really a phone for specific group of people. I'm kinda sad that they ditched 21:9 aspect ratio which makes their phones so great to hold in hand but well. They need to sell their phones in the end. Preordered 1mkVI and it's waiting for me at home. Can't wait to get it to my hands!

[@deadmansfire]

They have problems with the fingerprint sensors. And the software support is poor. Also they have poor reception

[@rmh032]

I used to buy Sony phones exclusively until I had 2 in a row where the build quality was shocking. Power and volume buttons failing. To be fair that was years ago. I'm interested in this phone but it's so bloody expensive

[@Florian00]

I only had a problem where the motherboard gave in after a year on my 10 ii which was repaired under warranty and I currently have a problem with the WF-1000XM4 where the left one keeps dying after only 30 minutes but I've been using my Xperia XZ1 from 2018 up untill now so maybe it is time for an upgrade

Welcome to Sony people 😊😊😊

[@alaneddy4575]

It has up to 1.75 TB, not 1.5 (sd+built in storage) and it the 1 V had 3 camera apps not 2. Photo Pro, Video Pro and Cinematography Pro, all of which mirrored the menu systems of Sony's Alpha (A1, A7S3), Cinema Pro (FX 3,6,9) Cine Alta cameras like the Venice which can only be rented not bought, (as it costs a s much as a house). The greatest thing about these apps was by learning them you then knew how to use all of Sony's cameras right to the very top.

I used to be a Sony user… 10 years ago when they released the Xperia Z3. But they have left the US market. Let me just say that even before they left, it felt like they left. Anyway it’s nice to see they’re still not afraid to take risks and to cram features into a smartphone

[@MrArt69]

And the battery? It's the biggest reason I'm into this phone and did not see you complement it. Is it that much better then all the other flagships or it's just marketing?

[@stuartbolden2142]

When I look back at your previous review of the 1v , Mark … you slated the camera ( especially the zoom lens) .. imo the 1v was better than the 1vi as there are a few things that Sony has dropped , music haptics for instance , which was a fantastic idea and is just about to be copied on the iPhone 16 I believe . Also the shutter button is going to be copied by apple too ! The Home Screen does not rotate on the 1vi which is a shame . I don’t agree about the camera app being better than the dedicated camera apps on the 1v ! The screen is good on the new phone but I think the clarity was better on the 1v ( personal opinion ) . One thing that is better on the 1vi is the battery life ( probably down to the 1080p screen ( why didn’t they go for quad hd ??? ) They begrudgingly offer three years of updates for the operating system now instead of 2 , which is a step in the right direction . It may seem that I am dissing this phone but I still love Sony products .. and imo the Sony 1vi is still niche enough to make me buy it ( I used one for a week to make my comparison) . But Sony have to learn that charging stupid money means that they are there to be criticised… and rightly so . In a world of “bubble gum” mobiles that look pretty and over saturate photos , Sony stand out with probably only the pixel phones that can compete with their camera tech .( although we know most of the pixels photos are software manipulated.) All in all the 1vi is a great phone , that is not quite a must buy , unless you are a Sony but like me !

[@corditeshade]

Mine is.. ok. It's resprung itself several times and the camera has a lot to be desired but I do love the phone overall. I really wish the post processing was a lot better, a lot of the photos looks bad. Great battery, great screen however isn't worth the money.

[@123PSPs]

I bought the Xperia 1 II when it released and a couple years later it was stolen at a music festival.

[@puglife6291]

I dont think sony will get rid of the headphone jack as it is a big part of their brand as they sell digital audio players, 3.5mm IEMs and headphones. The only way I see them getting rid of the headphone jack on their phones is if they release a line of usb-c iems and headphones. But yeah that would seem to be negating what sony is all about. Samsung never had cd walkmans so don't have that vested interest or passion for audio and Apple is more focused on "innovation" than practicality and quality of sound.

No wonder they lose to Apple and Google, because the camera is inconsistent as fuck. I some times try 10 pictures to get the best shot... some times. Most of the times I need to be on focus at first try and to not fall apart in low light. There is not excuse for Sony to be outdone by Google and Apple, or even samsung.

Unfortunately, my sony phone already has oled burn in issues just like every single oled device that I use and own already have burn in issues. It's why I wish there were a mini led display versions for smartphones so there will be no more oled burn in issues. The way I use oled displays on any display that has an oled display is guaranteed to have burn in issues and the display has even gotten dimmer and the white colors turn yellow like a clear cell phone case that turns yellow. I treat all displays in the same way whether the displays are oled and non oled displays. It's why I don't have an oled 4k tv because i guarantee that it will have oled burn in issues and that the display will get dimmer because I would buy a remote for the 4k oled tv and bypass the oled safety features to prevent oled issues such as turning off safety features to try to slow down the process of oled burn in issues. I basically would cause burn in intentionally on the 4k oled tv.

I tested every lens thorughly and I quite understand a bit of camera tech and phone camera quality. The pictures on my nearly 4 year old s20fe were on the same level as from the xperias in most scenarios. I was extremely disappointed by the 7.1 optical zoom. it looked washed out and not sharp, more like a digital zoom with a low mp sensor. on 20x zoom the pictures of my s20 fe were more zoomed in and simply better. the normal pictures look more vibrant on my s20fe and I like that. The ONLY definitely better thing is the battery life. but that is not worth spending 1300 Euro. It has no new backround pictures that change with every time unlock the screen and I love that feature from my samsung. always looking at the same backround is so boring and I don't want to install an app for that. So yeah I seem to be a samsung fanboy but I don't care. And I was a DIEHARD Sony fan until the xz premium.

And still has old boring UI. Yes is liclose to stock Android, but for 1200£ should have custom UI, also screen is not bright like competition have and a hear also phone got hot sometimes like every Sony before. For me still best desing no doubt but overpriced phone like every Sony for years.

Кпк надоели эти проплаченные обзоры😢... 10 лет был фанатом sony... но!😢😢😢 1. Устаревший дизайн... по нынешним меркам рамки сверху и снизу почти сантиметр, это ужасно. Только не говорите, что это для звука, и iphone и даже meizu 21 сделали тончайшие рамки с вырезом размером с волосок и звук у них идет вперёд. 2. Жадные sony годами пихают физически малюсенькие датчики, которые уже НЕ ВЫВОЗЯТ!!! СОВСЕМ НЕ ВЫВОЗЯТ. Если основной датчик еще пытается конкурировать с дюймовыми датчиками, то остальная мелочь увы... рождены мертвыми... у многих телевики стоят не только 1/2 дюйма но и 1/1,4... жадная sony ставит 1/3 или 1/2,9... не суть важно, но их датчики в несколько раз меньше по площади... (о какой светочуствительности и детализации тут говорить...)sony выкинь это старье!!!! Крик души!!!!! Недавно sony кастрировала свой не плохой компакт, убрала теле фото модуль ...он и так был с булавочную головку но теперь он не может конкурировать ни с samsung s24 ни с xiaomi 14😢... ЗАЧЕМ????? Мне кажется надо кастрировать маркетологов sony!!! Такую компанию убивают демоны😢😢😢🫣
