[@ameliashandcraftedmemes7888]

Having all those focal lengths is absolutely insane. This HAS to be the best smartphone camera in the world now

[@JavierSegura]

Here's a tip: It isn't.

[@RennieAsh]

It's the best in some aspects and some situations. But still has the typical Sony issues. At least from an enthusiast phone photographer view. Sometimes you want those extra features

[@47mahmood]

It's time to say goodbye to my trusty Samsung Note 9. Going back to Xperia after 12 years. Exciting!

[@F14Mavrick]

So you are leaving Samsung to go to Sony that is now a Samsung clone? Amazing what it takes for people to make a swtich. This is a very disappointing release for Sony. The features that made the phone unique are now gone.

[@matt-eu-poland]

Like which features are gone? I mean Sony copied some of things that worked in Samsung. Makes sense. I don't want Samsung because the apps and ecosystem are a bloat ware, or at least feel like. I'd be happy going back to Sony as well.

[@F14Mavrick]

@@matt-eu-poland ill answer the question no problem. But first if you wlll be so kind to answer this question. Have you had a Sony Xperia phone before? If you did than you would know what is gone feature wise and replaced for all the pleebs to use because of all the crying. I have had Sony phones since the Xperia 1 mark 2. If you have never had a Sony phone, I will answer your question. It also makes sense why so many are now excited about the Sony phones. They are now just like everyone else. Crap specs with very high price tag.

[@matt-eu-poland]

@@F14Mavrick no, and as much as I would like to have Xperia I'm waiting for a version that has features at least on par with Samsung. I want to have a fingerprint scanner on the screen not on the side. It feels like Sony is a couple years behind unfortunately.

[@F14Mavrick]

​@@matt-eu-poland I hate finger print scanner on the screen. If I had my way I want the finger print scanner on the back of my phone where a pointer finger rests naturally when you pick up a phone. I can unlock my phone as I am picking it up in one swipe. Everyphone I had that had the finger on the screen, I have to pick up the phone and than place my thumb on the screen. Holly crap, why do i have to do so much motion for such a simple thing. To place a thumb on a screen to unlock the phone is uncomfortable. I gave my buddy my mark IV. He at first was complaining about the same thing as you. I told him to kindly close his mouth and use my old mark IV. 4 hours, that is all it took, 4 hours. He tried to go back to his samsung s24. He threw his samsung in the garbage. There also wasn't a single phone that offered an OLED 4k HRD @120HZ screen. If you call that couple years behind, I don't know what to say. Samsung and iPhone is just barely intrudced some nice screen, yet it was still not even close to what Sony offered. I had the only phone that can watch netflix 4k HDR when I was on wifi and you can not beleive how awesome that was. I would be able to cast that to freinds TV's that had 4k HDR. Yup.... if you don't have the screen the netflix app will not offer you up a 4k experience. That is the same for all streaming apps. So good luck now with a FHD+ screen. OH and fyi.... Sony, now is goitng backwards. A FHD+ screen? 2012 is calling and it is laughing at us. The screen aspect is also dated just like any other phone. The 21:9 aspect was a game changer. Does anyone even understand how much more real estate space you have with a taller phone? I absolutely hate the 19.5:9. It is just crap. Every single time I hold a samsung phone, a pixel or a iphone in my hand I want to vomit on how wide those phones are and I have big hands. If I wanted a phone from 2015, I would get this aspect. Split screen now actually meant something on the phone. Well now it is gone... just like any other phone on the market. unified camera app? are we freakin kidding? this phone was about photography experts. You had a plain app and you have a pro app. Each had its place. You NEEDED to know how to take pictures. Now we get one app, and a bunch of auto options. PLEASE STOP!!!! The Mark V was the first one to start offering slight picture corrections on all setting (except full manual). The Mark VI is going to step it up even more. If I wanted a phone that does auto everything I would get an iphone, a pixel or a samsung, Yes can you still set your colors, do you still have a manual mode, a shutter mode, and a aperture mode. Yup, but lets face it, MAJORITY of people are not using those options and to make the phone more appealing to the stupid crowd, SONY is catering to them. What is even worse now with the new phone is that you don't even get that great of a screen and it is still going to cost over 1300 dollars. REALLY!!!!! On the other phone, you could at least justify the higher price just because of the OLED screen. But when you have your competitors giving you a higher res screen at a cheaper price, talk about going backwards. It was this morning i was reading an article how now people are praising SONY for making their phones more sensible. IE... just like everyone else. I get why, Sony xperia line was super niche market and not everyone was getting the phones. But I have lost count how many times people held my phone in there hands and were just immediately impressed. Than the sadness would kick in the moment they would see the price. I get it, I do. But like I said, if I wanted a phone that was just like every other phone on the market, I would have gotten those phone and saved a ton of money. Sony offer something unique and outperformed the competition in every category. Apologize for the really long novel, I did say I would explain after you answer my question. I also apologize if I come off course in some sections, I am just very pissed Sony is going backwards on such an amazing product.

[@ben8209]

iPhone user since the iPhone 4s. I have been looking for a ‘grown up’ phone which doesn’t feel like its built as a social media machine - came close to switching with the 1V but the 1VI has tipped me over the edge - you won a new customer Sony!

[@sonhoang_69]

Good luck iPhone user, hope you won’t regret it

[@__fall_z]

Please learn English first.

[@F14Mavrick]

So it took Sony to make a iPhone copy to put you over the edge. This has put me off from Sony. No oled screen, no 21:9 aspect, looks like all the phones on the market and doesn't even have the same amount of update support. No thanks. Let's see if you will pay the Sony tax at release for a phone that is like the rest.

I worked for Sony in my country. Let me tell you, that the Japanese are very sincere with their work and product. They mean with their soul when they tell you they worked on Xperia. Countless late nights and brain cells have been invested to bring you Playstation, TVs, and now Xperia.

I've been using Xperia Neo since 2011, battery still original and works perfectly. But I guess the time has finally come to upgrade.

[@Mr_Battlefield]

Sony's smartphones are seriously underrated. I hope to one day own one. The number one thing I look at in a smartphone is having the purest Android OS installed on the phone. I don't like smartphones bloated with unnecessary apps taking up room on the phone.

[@ogolotammy3041]

What makes you feel sony is different? I use them ..but I wish they do better in this new phone

[@chinitopinoy1726]

Bring back the 960 fps slowmo in better 2K or 4K quality with a two second burst instead of 0.25 second burst. Also, add end trigger mode for easier slowmotion capture.

[@drmoynihan]

It is the at&ts & verizons that add the bloatware as part of their bringing down the prices. SONY has not sold out, but therefore we pay the more expensive cost for the purer andoid.

[@alexandr_ko]

What do you mean, undervalued? They sell for the price of smartphones with better cameras, and they themselves have cameras somewhere in the thirtieth place. The super wide 16mm is how many years old now? The $200 phones have had it wider for a long time

[@pbm___000]

Huh? Why pay twice as much for 10-20% better? They need to focus on camera capabilities not processor/screen.

[@_epicenter_]

The last manufacturer, who makes phones with rectangular screens without idiotic cutouts. The last manufacturer, who makes phones narrow enough I can grip and use with one hand. I love fingerprint scanner embedded in power button: I unlock my phone in one finger action. I love front firing ear speaker and loudspeakers. The only manufacturer, who makes phones with SIM-card trays ejectable without any tools. UPD. Update policy for 1VI and 10 VI is great! 3 years of major software updates and 4 years of security patches from Google

[@arx117]

[@bagasfabianmaulana]

I'm ok with no 4k screen, but dropping 21:9 was such a sad news. 21:9 is the reason why i love Xperia 1/5 series since the mark I.

Beautiful phone. I am still rocking the 4 year old Xperia 1ii that is still as good as new. Such an amazing phone. Great battery, display, camera, fingerprint sensor on the power button. Love that these still have the headphone jack. And no useless gimmicks, no display cutouts. Also still using my 11 year old Sony Vaio laptop as a daily. One of the lightest even today at 2.3lbs.

[@vishnuarakuzha]

I'm using xperia 1 ii. Exited with 1 vi release even though it's not affordable for me 😂

[@NopWorks]

​​​@@arx117Yeah. Like, if you compare purely just the specs, Sony will definitely get bashed big times by Indians since specs & value for money is a big thing for them. Sony phones are very expensive. Sony phones are also great in many areas, but not raw specs. Most Indians care just about specs they get for the money, so it's obvious why Sony pulled out from there. That's also why Chinese phones sell so well in India. Bad build quality, not-so-great software, ads everywhere in the OS, cheap flashy designs, everything that isn't on spec sheet have corners cut, *BUT* they have amazing raw specs for the cheapest price. This is basically the polar opposite of Sony. I do think that they should offer international shops just for true fans though. If I can grab it on eBay why shouldn't I be able to get it without going through a third party.

Have been using XZ Premium for 7 years extensively as my one and only unit for mobile communications, as a portable music player, for car navigation and tourist map display. No problems whatsoever, still very quick in response. Sturdy and reliable phone. Battery is on 83 % of its health which is almost unbelieveable after all these years. Heat, freeze, snow, rain, occasional falls - nothing can stop this little gem. This year I am going to buy Xperia 1 Mark VI, my ❤XZP will be retired with great honor..... 👍🙂

Many are saying Xperia phones are underrated, but honestly, I don't think they are. The problem is how Sony markets their phones, most people today only know Apple, Samsung, and now Google, but those who do know about Xperia know that they are good. Problem number 2 has also been the price.

[@Sabundy]

I agree.I feel that if Sony made their phones more widely available, lowered the prices a bit, and then spent some money to actually market them well then they would sell more phones....

[@darkpixelstudios]

Please Sony Team, consider this: For your next phone, make all sensors 48 megapixels. Leave the 16mm (but at 48 megapixels so one can do clear image zoom to 24mm). Make the 24mm a 35mm (as seen in the Nubia Z60 Ultra). Most photographers prefer that focal length, and the natural bokeh is just way too good. The fake bokeh is still just way too fake to be usable, even if some KZbinrs say otherwise (just to please you). Lastly, take out the optical zoom and make an 85mm 48 megapixel with a big sensor and good f-stop, so we have a real usable portrait lens on our hands (and we can again clear image zoom from there as well if needed). This would feel like a real camara in our pockets, make you stand out in the camara market and with the 48megapixel mode absolutely be the best cell phone for photography. Even for video these focal lengths would be just awesome.

I can't wait 😍!🔥!!!

The King is back.

[@nycalien]

What's the software update policy for the phone?

[@Arxareon]

I would've loved to see more years of software update support and that being emphasized. Not sure abut ditching the 21:9 aspect ratio.. I like the idea of a bit more slender and more easily handleable phone.

[@RustyRokib]

From Bangladesh 🇧🇩 Congratulations....

[@screamxblur]

I still have an Xperia XZ3 in Forest Green, it works amazing and the 2K Oled screen is exquisite..

[@kaleugamerbr]

RIP 21:9

[@chuahhockleong9916]

Don't give up yet. Based on the promo video, the shape of the phone looks like 21:9 aspect ratio.

[@chuahhockleong9916]

If not 21:9, Sony will make the Xperia fit for IMAX sixe format movies. Let's keep our fingers crossed.

[@ruhidmohamad]

​@@chuahhockleong9916 the entire phone already leaked days ago. It's not 21:9

[@Ruben.Studio]

Hope it's not 21:9

[@K_yeucongnghe]

​@@chuahhockleong9916does not look like 21:9 at all

[@anshulriyal]

Background music was the main highlight..👍

[@NARFALICIOUS]

This dude is a robot and I'm here for it. Excited to go from Note 9 to Xperia 1vi!

[@Anonnonon]

I enjoyed the loud background music.

[@lordyboi8460]

Tired of samsung and all other droid phones.. hate apples ecosystem and overpricing.. imma try this one.. no regrets if this is cheeks.. haha

[@zekion.]

Sony doesn't care about their customers unlike Apple and Samsung. Buyer beware. Good phones though.

[@kotko735]

Sony's phones are overpriced too though

[@ogolotammy3041]

Just stick with your Samsung ... Sony has a great camera but not so great for smartphone.. because you still need to toggle the camera settings like a manual camera and overall durability of their product is little .. #coming from an Xperia user .. the Samsung flagships do better !!

[@zekion.]

@@ogolotammy3041 Agreed. My 1 V is still going strong thankfully but there are so many minor issues that eventually add up. My next phone's probably going to be a Samsung.

[@ydrefejnoc569]

Sony xperia is the most expensive than samsung and iphones while the screen size style are so thin unlike others not deserve to buy

[@agyeipatterson3944]

I love it would love to see a tablet from Sony experia tablet in 2024

[@biketube69]

The only phones I've ever owned: Xperia Z3, XZ Premium, and now the X1iii. Extremely disappointed the X1vi isn't available in the US. Was planning on getting one. Please make it available!

[@lifestream85]

❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤ LETS GO

[@user-kx8fz7sb6k]

キターー！

[@TheKrishna1995]

When is the US release? Whats the price? Are Preorders open?

[@ervalduis7644]

Ive been waiting this Sony Xperia 1Vi..i hope to have this kind of phone.this perfect phone.thanks Sony bringing out this full package phone.❤

[@intelligentinvestor5423]

What makes It perfect!?

[@KeiDash-zs6df]

I am still very happy with my Xperia 1 V i don't think to upgrade to this one

[@arx117]

There's only 2 thing was changed Snapdragon 8 gen 3 and screen ratio. Other will be same 12 GB RAM 512 GB storage

[@DrShaggy]

Same with me, i will stick with my 1V till the VII comes. Only differences i see is greater zoom, aspect ratio change and a screen downgrade. The software features , I am sure we will get in the future updates. I really wish they add the Exmor sensors to telephoto and ultra wide lenses too instead of extending zoom range.e

[@DrShaggy]

And oh, they should bring the SD card slot too.

[@omarjimenez8895]

I also have the 1 V. I decided to tap out after this one. Not because I'm disappointed in Sony, but, because as much as I like them, I can't keep affording their $1,000+ phones. I decided the V would be my last (at least for now), knowing not much has changed with the VI gives me the peace of mind that I'm not missing out and ended on a good one Thinking of the Google Pixel or the Nothing Phone when I am ready to upgrade again

[@Doblebdel99]

Aquí viendo el video con mi sony xperia xa2 ultra ❤

[@t0scanelli]

Where is the notification LED?

[@corydaboss]

The only miss for me (a pampered Pro I owner) is the 21:9 screen with rec 709 colour. It's an absolute beast and is a pleasure to watch movies on as most films are formatted at that aspect. Sure, a lot of videos are more "square", but it's never bothered me to "zoom to fit" and just be blown away by the difference (especially in the dark - its like a home theatre in the palm of your hands!). Other than that, I am super jealous of that optical zoom - incredible innovation as always!

[@joelconolly5574]

Can't wait 🎉🥳

[@MistaGabagool]

Hoping the 1 V gets cheaper once the 1 VI is released, love how they keep the headphone jack, perfect for my headphone collection

[@xicorescalante2854]

Price doesn't matter, quality is all I care about

[@MistaGabagool]

@@xicorescalante2854yeah the quality is beautiful with these

[@Helios2007]

Nice to see a brighter screen, for sunlight viewing. A true transflective one with an integrated Solar panel ( Like Casio and Garmin make on their watches ) would be even better. Until that time , this should be a winner.

[@intelligentinvestor5423]

I think Sony is the best study case for any business school around the world especially after the declear of the Xperia 1 VI. One of the most hot topics in business this year as smart phones selling generate lots of money for companies around the world!!!
