Google Pixel comes pretty close but Sony is another level so it is also the most expensive phone on the market because they are confident in what they put on the market

      using an xperia 5ii and google pixel 6a, unfortunaltely my xperia has 4 green lines in the screen now (maybe my own fault for washing it too much with water hahahahaa) but the sony 5ii is way nicer phone. now gonna go swithc to the pixel 6a soon but will use my xperia 5ii as a camera on the side (the 4 green lines are now just too much to handle, it was just 1 first and i could still use it in a normal way). until i saved enough money again to buy another sony. probably a 5 or 1 series. sony's battery care is just way better than google pixels. sony splitscreen is the best in the world also, so nice with the 21/9 and the cameras were better of the xperia 5ii although the phone was also 2s as expensive. i expected more from google pixel. but google pixel is just point and shoot hdr that is it. when zooming in the xperia 5ii blazes away that picture quality of the pixel 6a. ill never go back to pixel.

      For its wanna-be and its crap noise reduction algorithms overall (but mostly for the dusk and night scenes), Xperia 1IV and V were the most unsuitable on the market for the price tag. Front cam is still true to life quality at 3 mp fixed (10 years behind everything on the market nowadays) and its BOKEH modes (for 1IV the most expensive one) is still a disaster after the latest upgrades. Underrated for its refusing to help or improve it for users, nor fixed as it should. Shame!

Phones' sensor are still not as good as true cameras' sensor and cannot retain that much info shooting RAW.

      Xperia has always been great. Those famous tech youtubers would want you to believe otherwise, they get extremely terrible shots or somehow prefer the worse photo. But those aren't their true opinions, you can tell who have been paid by a competitor. That's what I found on my 1 III, I prefer the shots coming out of the Xperia 95% of the time compared to the S23 Ultra. The only time I'd prefer iPhones and Samsung is in extreme low light, where it's even hard for a human to see.

    If your phone display Supports 1 billion colors Stop the video at 33 seconds and watch the colors of the grass on the Sony camera. I see many colors of yellow and green grass in different shades, as if it captured by a real human eye. Other phones capture limited colors So Sony has a Technique called color science ( cinealta ) in the Alpha division of cameras, and they talked about it a lot and introduced it into Xperia phones I think in 2019
    Also the dog shot at minute 8:5 If the light on a dog’s face comes from the sun, it will naturally have yellowness, so I want to say that the Sony camera engineers are geniuses

LED is useless and so weak set for shooting in any scenario for ultrawide and mostly telephoto (I've tested both IV and V)!

    🍀 Hi! I'm currently watching this video on the iphone 14 pro max because the galaxy s24 ultra doesn't have the quality I need and I'm waiting to get the Sony Xperia 1 VI. In my research the iphone and xperia are pretty equal in picture and video quality in this video, although the video is best on the iphone! In the naturalness of the colors, the gamma of the originality of the colors, the sharpness, etc. iphone and xperia are the best! And the pixel sometimes takes successful pictures, the pixel is either too artificial, too dark or light, does not consistently correctly capture scenes and situations. In my observation at the moment, the order is: 1) 15 pro max, 2) xperia 1 VI, 3) pixel, while xperia and pro max are both walking side by side with very high quality. I changed my xperia 1 V to a galaxy s24 ultra and I regretted it pretty much right away because the galaxy is not very high quality, it's more of a quantity chaser, I just don't like the fake color gamut of the galaxy either on its screen or camera, and the galaxy is constantly hot and has other bugs and it's actually a shame because the s24 ultra looks beautiful so I'm replacing my galaxy s24 ultra with an Xperia 1 VI. Thank you!☀️

      If you know how to use in-depth video recording, actually I think you'll be surprised by the video quality on Sony. I'm using the 1V right now and I can't admire it enough. Plus if you know how to do video editing, S-Cinetone on Sony is way superior than on iPhone. Other than that, I agree with everything else you have commented.

    The main sensor is good on Xperia V but it seems they improved on the other 2 sensors.There is no number 1 among the traditional smartphone companies when it comes to photo/video but I think Sony is much better on the manual options.Somtimes I wonder if there is anything left to go further with this camera format and what is the future when it comes to smartphone photography.

    That's a big step forward for the Xperia in Auto mode - always felt you sacrificed the auto quality for the pro mode adjustments in previous Xperia's. I like taking a lot of macro shots so this definitely has me interested.

  • @Maderpakk

    Great comparisons as always. But as i think, you already know, there is differences between these phones when it comes to photography. For example the Pixel is the one that is made for those who prefer to take a quick shot on their food or candles at home. The xperia is more of a nature/outside kind of a phone to take photos with while the iPhone being a mix of the both. You should mix buildings, dark/light, day/night, objects inside/outside, sun/cloud/after sunset to get most out of the comparison if you ask me. Otherwise i think its kinda unjustified action towards the capabilities of them all since all these situations were tricky and uncommon ones. Still a good comparison, but it will give less good image to the real capabilites of the phones :)

    I don't think this phone is overpriced like many people claim. Especially when we consider the high end camera sensors, Zeiss lenses and other additions like the mechanical shutter button, headphone jack and micro sd slot.
    The big problem for Sony is the terrible timing of the release and the fact that you can get an S24 Ultra for over EUR 400.00 less and a Pixel 8 Pro for almost half the price of the Xperia 1 VI. Same goes for many other, more popular, high-end phone brands.

The final result was: 24 points for each camera. This proofs a point: it is dependent on the situation how good a camera performs. These are all good cameras with slightly different qualities. There is no reason to go crazy about "the best camera smart phone".

    That being said, I'd still buy Xperia over Pixel because Pixels have since 6 a list of problems, inefficient SoC, Camera glass popping for no apparent reason, bad battery life.
    Sony just ticks all the boxes, screen too good (4k was overkill or whatever was in MkV) huge battery, efficient SoC, Headphone Jack, SD Card slot - almost perfect phone and the benefit of the super cameras who hold their ground in their Beta/pre release software version.

    The Xperia 1 VI seems better at objects than people; I get a similar portrait shot on my Xperia 1 V at 4:19, I could also tell on the selfie video earlier on as the Xperia still has no AF on the front camera of your face lacked the detail compared to the other two.
    They may finally reintroduce AF on the front camera as they did on the XZ Premium all those years ago!!
    The macro shooting is very impressive on the Xperia 1 VI as were some dark shots
    Also I was initially hung up about the screen resolution, but as my Xperia I V usually runs at 1080p for the vast amount of time, the brighter screen on the Xperia I VI and longer lasting battery is probably better overall
