For those who are wondering why the display resolution is now FHD instead of 2K, I want to tell you what I heard from the developer.
Sony has used 4K 21:9 displays until now.
However, 4K content optimized for smartphones did not become as popular as Sony had assumed.
Therefore, they choose to reduce the resolution, but there is a reason why Sony did not choose 2K.
Much of the content you play on your phone is in FHD, and not much of it is optimized for 2K.
Xperia is a smartphone from the creator's point of view.
With few creators making 2K content, they felt that there was little merit in adopting a 2K display just to dare to compete with other companies.
Quitting 4K has made the display significantly brighter than the 1 Ⅴ.
Also, the battery life is superior to the iPhone 15pro max and Galaxy S24.
I know this is disappointing for those who liked the 4K display, but I want you to know that it is not just a regression due to cost cutting, but also an evolution.
Sorry if my translation is not correct and I didn't convey it well.
very good, thank you bro
Thank You....
It’s a downgrade
Can't agree with that. Watching a lot of youtube and movies from d+, amazon etc.
It is a difference in that case. 😅
I prefer a crisp image over 3hours of longer usage ... 1080 p is a standard from 2014? 16?
This phone design so sleek and looks premium.
Ikr probably one of the prettiest phones out there
Sony were not joking around when they said they are going to bring the Bravia TV technologies. Look at the flower in the wallpaper, it looks like 3d like in Bravia TVs.
that was a mushroom in my yard xD if your talking about my wallpaper haha
@@MobilePhotoObsession Wow it turns mushrooms into flowers? Far out!
@@johanmarnfeldt5262 what are you talking about lol
@@johanmarnfeldt5262 thought you were talking about the background or someone who mentioned the flower background i was telling someone the background is a mushroom
pre ordered same color here in germany. but they will ship on June 3rd, with the beast xm5. super excited, and from your video I can actually see how good it looks for the first time. thanks for sharing mate!
thanks i'll try to upload more but taking care of my grandparents takes a majority of my time
Drop 4k for better battery is a good exchange i take it 💯
Exactly, plus they can focus on the camera, sound, screen, and battery quality. They don't want to cheap out, and I highly appreciate that
Samsung has 2k and you can adjust it, lower the resolution. You fanboys are just nuts. They could have just made it adjustable.
Thank you for the vid, any further videos with pictures, battery etc would be great
Sony Ericsson W850i Walkman was my first phone and I loved every bit of it, excellent camera great sound and music. Phones were more of emotions than just a gadget those days. Good to see Sony is coming back after left behind several years in competition.
The fact that you already have the phone is a miracle by Sony standards for real. I really believe some of the criticisms are unfair even though I was also let down that they didn’t go with higher megapixel complimentary sensors given the competition but the tele-macro lens looks amazing. I’m waiting for the fall/winter for the newly rumored Sony Xperia Pro-C but I’m looking to see some great things come out of this phone.
No other phones from sony this year
Yes exactly, me too 👍🏼
@@Ali-M2Sony Xperia 5 VI
I own it as Sony Xperia 1 V wiith 1TB of storage + Samsung S24 Ultra 1TB. Top notch of products. I also own Sony A95K 55", PS5. I just enjoy Sony products.
GUYS. I PREORDERED MY KAKI GREEN 1 VI OMGGGGGG
All of my smartphones were iOS-Devices (ofcourse all of them had a Jailbreak running) but iam done with iOS/Apple.
For the past 3 years i was looking around for android phones and the Xperia immediately caught my eye. And they have finally manages to keep the Xperia characteristics but make it a phone you can now recommend to everyone and not only to pros.
So, for the first time in my life i preordered a device. I should get my hands on it in a week i guess.
Wish You happiness
God Bless You 😇
welcome to Sony!!
welcome to sony, I was never never disappointed using sony for the last 6yrs.
All of the people arguing about 4k and 1080p. Well i got my 1 VI now .. The new Xperia 1 VI has the new Sony Bravia AI screen. It's not just 1080p though, it switches to different contents which is actually stunning!!! If you guys still insist that it is the same as 1080p screen. Nope. there's a big difference between sony Bravia AI 1080P screen vs Samsung or LG 1080o screen.
Heating issues?
What's the difference though ?
I think the argument stems more from downgrading the screen resolution, but still selling at £1300.
What? 1080p is 1080p.
I'm not concerned about going down to 1080p. The screen is too small to notice. 4k just kills your battery. I already run my Samsung at 1080p only because I don't need the 4k. There's not much of a difference. I have a tv in my home office on the wall above my monitors running at 720p and there's because it's small, there's not much of a difference.
Man that looks lovely in that platinum , nice 1 my good man
Great short review. Congratulations
Portrait & macro photography ❤❤
You are great in description,you are first real man who know what need to say in right place! Big like for you!I wilp subscribe on yours chanel just because you are real and have logic thinking! 💪
Thnx for the honest review , keep us posted about camera options
Best honest review so far
ill try to do a update
It looks gorgeous omg😮
Sony still having those natural look photos
i love videos like these thank you algorithm..
yea im not really a big tuber lol i upload when i can just to get my opinion out when i get a chance to take some more photos and such ill try to upload more
Thats just amazing photography, I know camera is great in these phones but your skills are great too.
I've seen that comment you mentioned. Can't wait to get mine! It ships 6 June in EU.
Looks great. What’s the 3.5mm audio out like compared to the 1 v?
ordered mine. it was couple hours on Amazon UK when price was £1083. including headphones. can't wait to get it
I didn’t get the offer in time, actually think it was an error on Amazons part but you’re locked into that price, which is lucky. Phone should be around this price anyways based on the res downgrade.
@@user-mv6li9wr1k we live in a free country. nobody force to buy. I completely agree, that price is high, but with free headphones offer imho price is reasonable.
Ignore those spec yapper that say it's a bad screen because it's resolution, resolution doesn't make a good screen, just like how megapixel doesn't make a good camera.
Man u all r soo lucky to get this , it's not even out here in INDIA
Definitely gonna get this one!
Preordered mine too! 😁😁😁
Not worth at all just buy 1 V for less price
@@bloodytoad2010 nice youll love it
@@gezimislamaj5309 i agree it should be cheaper but when you have depression and it helps its worth the price lol
@@MobilePhotoObsession slow charging, downgraded screen, software support missing and many else. That's what keeps everyone away from Sony.
The photos look amazing! What's the typing experience like compared to Pixel? I think with a brown leather case, this woud look vintage trad excellence. Love it.
typing exp is way better then the 1v and about the same as the pixel the voice to t yping is pretty accurate as well. but i like this way more then the 1 V the wider phone makes it better to me and you cant tell the difference with the screen at all
@@MobilePhotoObsession I couldn't find any nice leather cases for it, but where I live in Europe you get free headphones and 50% off the official Sony case. I don't really like cases unless I'm taking a lot of pictures outdoors, so I'm going with the platinum phone and black case. By the way: I use the free version of DaVinci Resolve for video editing. You can't use high bit depth colouring and AI on the free version, but it's great for social media if you want to try it. ✌
I've been wanting an Xperia phone pretty much since they left my country back in 2015, and I'm just in love with this 1 VI, the form factor seems to be way more usable than the 21:9.
I hate the fact that I would have to pay twice for it just in taxes to get it shipped to my country. I guess I'll have to stuck just to watch videos of it on RUclips since I can't really have it.
It looks really good in silver. Thats definitely the colour i am going to get.
Keen to see how long it will be before the quality control issues come up like finger print sensor failing etc. I’m keeping an eye on this phone…if there’s no quality control or software issues…I might get it.
Hey man, congrats! I want to get it someday too but as a freelancer, I haven't able to yet, do you need a logo or something? I would love to craft it for you and it will help me gain more experience and also fund to get me step by step to bigger dreams too! Let me know if you interested!
Can't wait for mine to come in. Got my 1TBsd card, spigen case, screen protectors waiting for it.
nice copy cat hahaha :D jk
Where did you buy the spigen case? Can your share the link?

As a very happy Pixel 8 Pro owner, as much as I can appreciate the smart AI features and performance Google puts into their phones I would definitely love to have a phone that brings awesome photos through actual hardware capabilities. If ever my finances allow for it I'd love a Sony phone.
great video ! can you do a comparaison with the s24 Ultra (design and operation system) and tell us which one you prefer to use ? thanks
i sold the s24 ultra i like how the s24 operates but the cameras over process way to much i prefer sony over all the other phones but i do like vivo and xiaomi almost just as much
I also watched that icelandic guy video. Battery is more important to me as long as it's at least 1080p. The photos definitely look more detailed than my Xiaomi phone.
I have watched the good reviews from both the same icelandic guy and the Swedish guy with the Subaru.
Liked. Xperia❤
I saw that reddit post, I hope you've replied to them with a pic! lol - I like xperia's just because of the design - i've just seen a post showing the the torch is so much brigher than the v now, this true? does it have any gps/compass issues? i've had the 1iv, 5iv and 1v and they all had compass issues, as in they were all out and google maps often facing the wrong way. thanks for the review. You must be the first in the US?
i used it to gps to atlanta and no issues what so ever android auto works fine the the phone feels so smooth also
@@MobilePhotoObsession torch?
@@curtis24-7 idk. What you mean by torch
@@MobilePhotoObsession apologies, I’m the other side of the pond. Flashlight - apparently it’s brighter than s23u where previously all xperia flashlights were dim candles
@@curtis24-7 I just blinded myself thanks lol it seems pretty bright to me. I don’t remember actually looking at the S 24 ultra torch.
Thanks for the upload
You can see the difference of 4k if you had a picture open on the old Xperias and it switched to 4k - realistic sharpness improved a little at close distance. It's not going to matter for most daily use. Phone movie buffs may be disappointed in that aspect however the colours and brightness are still there (and better). Your 21:9 content is only going to be a millimetre or two less wide as the new phone is slightly shorter I think.
I thought these were only coming out in the UK? I'm in the US too. Where did you get yours?
Sony offers a lot of what you really need in a smartphone like audio, camera, se card, battery,etc.)And when I say audio I mean that no other brand can even come close.The real problem with Sony is the price.Samsumg S24 plus is a product that sales and it is cheaper with a 2k screen and it is packed with features too.If the Xperia was like 1100 or 1200 euro/dollars it was a no contest.The 1080 wouldn't be a deal breaker for me either if it was in the price range.The PRO C is said to come this year witch will be a super device since the 1 VI is already fantastic but but the price of the PRO C will surely be ridiculous.
Hi . Thanks for the video ! Can you tell us more about battery life ? How many hours of screen on time do you get in average on a single charge ?
ive been using it since 6am and it just hit 50% battery life at like 540pm this evening using it all day
Thx ! Seems like a great battery life .
Can't get the screen on time to record on allot of phones but it's best I've seen
Since the previous Xperia operated at 1080p unless you were playing videos, it is not shocking that it would be difficult to tell the difference. I can 100% see the difference using a 6" 1440p and 6" 1080p screen. But I am nearsighted and use very fine text size with the phone less than 12" from my face.
I have the xperia 1v and a samsung tablet that has 720p screen. Doesnt bother me at all. I prefer lower resolution actually - more battery life. 1 v actually takes a whole day to drain as well. The only feature i want from the 1 vi is the macro and 48mm which was also on the 5v. Hopefully an update that lets me shoot 48mm
I have a similar combo as well, 10v & tabs8 ult
I'm really contemplating getting this phone 📱 for it's video quality. I was going to get the Xperia 1 V but since the VI is out, I would get this one. I have an S24 Ultra and the quality of it is okay and good only in some instances. The 8k video is the only thing going for it. But, you can't go wrong with a Sony. That is so funny that you are in Georgia as well! The bipolar weather of Georgia is something else sometimes 😆
But yes, I've taken videos with my S24 Ultra in Atlanta back in April, and I was impressed and not impressed. The video bobs to much and almost a jello effect whenever I pan with its built-in OIS. But, I'd be willing to get this smartphone unless I get a professional camera that can take 4k 120fps.
1080p is the best for me. I don’t need unnecessary overkill specs that will just drain my battery faster
I ordered it 👍
Gracias por mostrarlo la única desventaja que le veo es la disponibilidad y el precio alto
Lol 3rd party seller have it ready to ship here in Canada and red version is hot as f
I'll take a brighter screen and better battery life over a very seldomly used 4k screen any day of the week thanks. What should have also happened is a lower price though.
Great phone 🔥🔥🔥
Hey man, great to see you getting hold of it already but would be perfect if you could kindly get a video done showing screen recording of the VI's video recording and zoom performance including some long/maximum distance photos as well please? That'd definitely be awesome my friend 😄👍🏼
ill try i am a caregiver so i dont get to leave the house very long to take photos of stuff. only went to my convention for a few hours this weekend. ill try though
@@MobilePhotoObsession thanks man, all the best to you 🙏🏼
Impressive no doubt! ... Hopefully Spigen will make a Zero One case for this Xperia. Still waiting for my M1 V1 to ship from Germany. Fingers-crossed it will accept my VZ SIM card.
hope so
@MobilePhotoObsession Which network are you using the Xperia on? Are you getting 5G service?
What carrier are you using this on? How is the reception with the limited bands?

Where did you order from
I am jealous bro... Enjoy cheers...
Can't wait to get mine soon. Sony has lot and powerful capabilities but I dint think they use all their power and knowledge I mean they made all great cameras and sensors. I believe next sony xperia 1 mrk 7 will be huge game changer
yea i think they need to put the Lyt 900 in it and maybe use the exmor T for the other sensors like the telephoto
@@MobilePhotoObsession they can do that if they want but I don't know why
FINALLY, they made a phone with less side bezels than the Xperia XA2
Thanks for your video indeed,is this international model supports AT&T or which Network are you usinh in US?
Tmobile i posted another video showing
this is the chinese model
Great video beautiful phone👍👍is there a case available for this phone?? Does this phone get hot playing games??Love Sony products. Trying to decide I phone 16 pro max or Sony
didnt struggle but i nolonger have it
I have the 1 V. Worth upgrading? And never bought a phone that wasn't available in US. How you port it over, and is the service just as good? I love the 1 V, was disappointed to hear 1080p but I know they used their technology that's in their TVs for screen. Prob why it's still good. I love Sony stuff. I only buy their TVs, and now their phones
if you like telephoto macro shots and extreme battery and better connection id say yes but only if you can sell your sony for a good chunk
@@MobilePhotoObsession ya Sony doesn't have a trade in program do they?
@@hdlowrider1903 don't think so
Nice to hear it's so awesome. But you're saying in USA? I heard, that the phone wasn't going to be available for purchase in the USA at all??
@@ejdavis72 nice it is i never heard of swift ill check them out
Hello and thanks for the review!!! Can You please tell, if the selfie camera is good? I have sony Xperia 1ii and the selfie camera is the point i don't like because of the unnatural proportions it makes on my face. Huge forehead long nose etc... And if you are not exactly in the middle, forget about to look at least okay on the quick selfie. Does the Xperia vi does disproportional selfies as well? Thanks in advance 😊
its mid
👍 thank You ❣️
pretty device ❤❤
Are you able to enable visual voicemail?
Are you able to enable the Google Pixel Call Screening feature?
Have you had any issues with 1 VI? I just bought it and I'm experiencing already two:(. Something seems to be too loose within the phone, it just moves every time I move the phone - even lightly.
The second is the noise generated by camera, and I don't mean the noise of changing the lenses, but this kind of "white noise" that last all the time while using camera app. A sound similar to catching radio waves by a speaker.
Have you experienced anything close to these?
lol thats the lenses its supposed to be that way but idk about radio waves but i sold my sony
Did You got free headphones on preorder?
What network you running on? I see the sony site says it supports all T-Moible frequencies except one so looks like it should work just fine.

@@MobilePhotoObsession thank you for letting me know 👍👍
Depending on the individuals daily usage, 1080p and longer battery life will be a blessing no doubt. I understand it's bravia technology, but personally would prefer quad hd minimum after losing 4k. Like many others, I can notice a difference in sharpness when looking at the screen from 20-30 cm. Not necessarily pixel peeping. I think this phone has fantastic hardware and software, but losing a 4k screen and replacing with 1080p and still charging an insane amount of money is just bonkers. I'm not fussed with battery life. We all have car chargers etc to fit in with our daily routine, and in all honesty, how long do you plan on keeping the phone? Currently using an S23 ultra which is simply flawless in every department. Only gripe is the weight. Wondering if Sony will come back next year with a higher resolution screen. Higher resolution simply looks nicer. Content is more pleasant to look at. I think people who choose this will mainly be for the battery life. But, if Sony gave a quad hd screen with similar battery life, would the people prefer the better screen? Rather than keep saying it's overkill and not necessary? All that money for a fantastic phone with only a 1080p screen which is still overpriced with only 3 years of support? I can't see Sony selling many...
Sony cell phone is and remains a niche product
i keep phones sometimes 3-5 months the sony i had more times then every phone i had last year i kept going back to the one V so maybe i can stick with 1 phone its so hard i hate being a techwhore lol
Might upgrade from the 1ii to this one.
I thought it's not available in the US! I really wanna get it. How did you get it?
Perhaps he got it from Aliexpress or Amazon UK? I still have the Xperia 1 IV.
Wait, so you're in the states and ordered it through the UK? I was told it doesn't have a majority of the bands for carriers in the US. What service do you have? I really didn't want to go without a Sony when my 1 III dies. I've been using only Sony since 2002. I'm spoiled by their UI. It's unlike any other phone.
I'm using it on Tmobile if you wanna check my other video out i posted after this i show it on Tmobile my house signal is little weaker cause its old but i get over 1k mbps on tmobile and so did my Sony xperia 1 V i got it from wondamobile not the uk i got the case coming from sony uk
@@MobilePhotoObsession thank you!!! 🤗
Does it have a notification light? Nice review!!! 👌
nope and thanks
What is your software patch buddy? Is it up to date ie may or is it lagging behind
its on april security patch lol i dont really follow updates that much on phones unless im having a problem with one like i did the vivo x100 pro when it first came out it was a brick until they updated it literally
The aspect ratio of this is just better for media consumption. Id rather have small black bars on the top and bottom when watching 21:9 movies than have giant black bars on the sides when watching 16:9 youtube
I want this phone so bad. It looks amazing.
What would make this phone perfect for me is larger higher res sensors and 21:9 ratio, I actually like the FHD screen because I care about battery and I really like the sleek design
My concern and why i got rid of my 1V was due to the Bluetooth bug that happened with Android 14. Wondering if that has been fixed. Since i think it's on the same version
❤❤❤
The only thing bad about sony phones is lack of software support
Do more of this please.
I am more interested on the Zoom Lens because I heard they are soft...
Also I think the people who were disappointed were those who own the Mark 5.
from what i have seen zoom sharpness is very good! but focusing is tricky
