@@RugerTooWavy I don't really understand what doesn't feel right on it... The tall screen with top bezels kept is kinda good looking, no?

The back design looks pretty identical to Galaxy Note 10, haven't seen the Note 10 getting mocked for that.

The best gets even better. Seriously, the phone is elegant, fast, has most likely stellar battery life, has very capable camera with fine tuned software, stereo speakers, camera button, natural colors display, water proofing, fits the hand well, the best aspect ratio, all physical buttons on the right side and side mounted finger print sensor, only downside being stereo jack is missing. This phone is so near to perfection I'm willing to appect the missing jack. Only thing I'm afraid of is how Sony will sovereignly rule the market now. Most reviewers will hate at release though, but they have been biased for a long time now, should not come as a surprise. PhoneArena has been decent though, even if the Xperia 1 review wasn't "in depth" at all.
Camera is great bro. Forget DxOMark results, those guys are like youtubers, they get paid for results. If you ever get a chance to have Xperia 1 or 5, do watch a blockbuster movie, like Endgame, you will probably never watch on your TV anymore.
The updates will hopefully come with the 10 update. This phone is really interesting, it's basically the 1, but smaller (and cheaper) for people who didn't want a "big" phone.
What's weird about 21:9? This aspect ratio is actually good in: Games Movies Scrolling Pretty much everything except the old content videos where you'd see the black bars which is fine. It is an OLED screen so those blacks are turned off pixels so no waste of battery.
I'll put it simply: 21:9 is a PLUS! Is meant for productivity and better hand grip. You get more vertical data shown at you which is how we use phones most of the time. I also don't find watching content bad since zooming 16:9 content is actually pleasant to watch full screen.
21:9 is not weird. You make it sound like a con. THe Movies shown in the Cinemas are in 21:9 Format. The 18:9 or 18.5:9 is actually the weird one, it did not comply with any previous video standard
I don't think they could have made it any more compact than this. If you think about it, it's pretty much the limit they can go with this aspect ratio. It would be too slim if it was any smaller, it would look and feel weird Unless they go for the 19:9 again, which I don't prefer
clearly you haven't owned a newer Sony phone. My xz premium doesn't run on 4k all the time, only that it can play 4k media wherever it finds it. It's not like you go around scrolling facebook on 4k. I am willing to forego this 4k ability on my next Sony phone (maybe xperia 5) since , in 2 years on my xz premium , I maybe watched 20 4k videos overall (but they are nice, I give you that)
Probably too late, but Xperia 1 has a larger, sharper screen and bigger battery. HOWEVER, the Xperia 5's display is plenty fine and it has better battery life, probably due to the lower resolution and smaller form factor. Also, despite having the same camera tech, the Xperia 5 seems to do a better job with it.
The thinking from SONY with the old compact-phones to make a small phone bigger bust just enough. The new thinking is to keep a big phone more compact and smaller.
Lot off new expensive tech and build quality not come cheap .

Check out "what a gear", recombu / tech support (same guy) and pixel pepers. They cover everything around Sony phones. Tech support is now sony mobile's face for UK, at least he is the first to give an official overview of everything they announc on a show like IFA, or MWC. Check them out.
They care so much about xperia that gave 8 to Xperia 1, while giving higher score to worse phones like mi9 and oneplus 7 pro. They gave 8.7 to XZ Premium.
Lol, that's actually wrong. PhoneArena cares more about iPhones. If you actually want to see videos related to Sony's phones, check out Tech Spurt. This dude's the only one that I know that still make a lot of videos about Sony.
I have the xz1 compact as well and im sticking to it for another year to see if they come up with a real compact until next september. The xperia 5 is not even a try at a compact phone, so dont bother looking at it. I dont know why so many people say its a xperia 1 compact. The xperia 1 is the former Premium line(4k display.. for example XZ premium). The xperia 5 is like Xz1 (which is xz premium without the 4k and a bit smaller) and they are just not making a phone for the compact line anymore(like xz1 compact)... Its over 6 inches .. why are we even inluding the word compact in the same sentence as the Xperia 5? If they gonna make a compact, they should use the xz2c ratio and size, 5.0 inch and 18:9.. just make it slimmer and pour all the latest snapdragon stuff and triple camera... Easily best phone and instant buy.
21:9 is not weird, what also not weird is you hating again against a Sony phone, in addition to that, I want to see the phone not your face, iPhone arena.
The thing is, Sony has the money to put into their smartphones; however, I've used many Sony devices and the photo end result is crap. The day Sony as a whole invests more time and money into their mobile division is when I'll buy another one. They look great though design wise.
just watch full and see a 700$ oneplus pro and eventaully 700$( will be 600$ in january) compete head to head.. sony is almost on elite level of samsung,apple,huwaei,google
Failior, when? The havent failed? The phones works better than other brand, getting update much quicker than more popular brands. So what have they really failed in?
@@scottyrob82 Yes its true sales is down for Sony. cant argue about that. Features wise, SONY has enough, and what you need, no real gimmics. Thats is good. Rather have a slick interface with not that many features that you will never use anyway. Design is just terrific of the SONY. And always has been. They have thought smart, not like the others that just wants to put in a bigger and bigger screen. And now they are so big, so that really even cant have a front camera in their phones with out destroying the big huge screen with a sensor-chin or a darn hole in the screen. Its just so bad. SONY still dont have that... rather have a smaller bezell in the top and bottom, than nothing at all. Perfomance is always good on a SONY phone. Yes its true that the camera software isnt really at the best sometimes, but that is because Sony want their users to take commando over their cameras and learn how to use it, and not just let the camera decide like all the others do.... So No, dont see the failor but sailes, and there is an answer for that. SONY is really bad advertisers. There is no commersial more than these releases and the prople checking the phone out. If SONY did as Samsung, made a real event with artists, and developers of the phone that talks and try to show their filosofy why they did the phone in the first place, I am sure it would have been much different. Instead we have these corporate guys, that just talks about it... and count up features and specs. That no on really cares about.
is it me or the backglass of xperia5 looks so iphone*ish or kinda premium looking even without the gradient or other color schemes it just looks simply cool
@@silva_br1 maybe they kinda lost that look on the curve back during xz2 but that was so very comfy i thought it was all bumpy but i held it on a store and i felt like a kid hahaha
I saw the weird youtuber and he merely want people to watch his weird facial expression. Please be professional and the spot light should be on the device.
just buy one plus 7 pro and its almost 30% cheaper or if you wanna go for the best of the best just get Note 10 or even LG cause they atleast doing sumn interesting with their dual screen smartphone sony making phones just for the sake of making phones and have no thought put into it..... i dont know who even buys sony phones nowdays
@@RugerTooWavy And boom! There you go, you said it yourself. When was Z1 released? 5-6 years ago. Z3, Z5, XZ Premium, XZ1/XZ1 Compact, even XZ3 etc... One of the finest phones they made, Samsung's phones released in the same year as these, are nowhere competitive with them anymore, while these devices still perform solid. You probably didn't check these out because you had this sudden anger raised toward them for some odd reasons. :3 I know I've replied to your comments a lot (sorry if you're bothered) but I'm just curious to know the valid points behind your hatred toward Sony.

If they gonna make a compact, they should use the xz2c ratio and size, 5.0 inch and 18:9.. just make it slimmer and pour all the latest snapdragon stuff and triple camera... Easily best phone and instant buy.
Dude go buy LG then. No new flagship has 3.5mm jack anymore, deal with it.
R u drunk bro
Haha sounds like! 😂
He needs to check on his weed man, probably gave him the wrong supply.
21:9 is not weird, what also not weird is you hating again against a Sony phone, in addition to that, I want to see the phone not your face, iPhone arena.
Looks nice.
Very much so. Very slick and sexy. Fantastic audio and very underrated camera and video. The forgotten phone of 2019
Can't wait for this beautiful one
Main camera is not same of Xperia 1. It is not Motion Eye.
I would love to have this phone!
The thing is, Sony has the money to put into their smartphones; however, I've used many Sony devices and the photo end result is crap. The day Sony as a whole invests more time and money into their mobile division is when I'll buy another one. They look great though design wise.
I've got the Xperia 1 and to be honest the photography on that smartphone is amazing!
@@ryanseed2803 likewise me. The pix are great.
just watch full and see a 700$ oneplus pro and eventaully 700$( will be 600$ in january) compete head to head.. sony is almost on elite level of samsung,apple,huwaei,google
Sony phone cameras definitely have below average full auto cameras, its when you use manual mode that they shine
And ofc manual is for the more experienced photographers that understand exposure and composition
Will this ever be launched in India? Badly want a compact flagship from a reputed firm. The only choice available here is Samsung 10e. ☹️☹️
I'm trying to figure out why the fuck these phones cost so much
Bad review. He doesn't know most movie better in 21.9 ratio
But no headphone jack
Its a nice looking phone
I cant fucking afford it
But i still prefer the xz3
Great Phone Ever
This reporter is cute
Everyone on this channel has a cute accent.
Morris Kris Most of them are from Bulgaria.
The only thing I hate about this phone is that stupid 20:9 aspect ratio. It makes the phone look to skinny and tall looking.
It's 21:9
Sony : lets launce new phone
People : what new phone
Why does Sony even bother trying when they're always setting themselves up for failure?
Failior, when? The havent failed? The phones works better than other brand, getting update much quicker than more popular brands. So what have they really failed in?
@@Dragontrumpetare Sales, features, design, performance.
@@scottyrob82 Yes its true sales is down for Sony. cant argue about that. Features wise, SONY has enough, and what you need, no real gimmics. Thats is good. Rather have a slick interface with not that many features that you will never use anyway. Design is just terrific of the SONY. And always has been. They have thought smart, not like the others that just wants to put in a bigger and bigger screen. And now they are so big, so that really even cant have a front camera in their phones with out destroying the big huge screen with a sensor-chin or a darn hole in the screen. Its just so bad. SONY still dont have that... rather have a smaller bezell in the top and bottom, than nothing at all. Perfomance is always good on a SONY phone. Yes its true that the camera software isnt really at the best sometimes, but that is because Sony want their users to take commando over their cameras and learn how to use it, and not just let the camera decide like all the others do.... So No, dont see the failor but sailes, and there is an answer for that. SONY is really bad advertisers. There is no commersial more than these releases and the prople checking the phone out. If SONY did as Samsung, made a real event with artists, and developers of the phone that talks and try to show their filosofy why they did the phone in the first place, I am sure it would have been much different. Instead we have these corporate guys, that just talks about it... and count up features and specs. That no on really cares about.
@@Dragontrumpetare You seriously felt you needed to post a thesis? This post wreaks of fanboy.
@@scottyrob82 What do sales have to do with this phone?
THANKS
They should have kept the 4K screen and added a pro headphone jack, and kept the same larger battery as the Xperia 1.
is it me or the backglass of xperia5 looks so iphone*ish or kinda premium looking even without the gradient or other color schemes
it just looks simply cool
Eino san They have always been fancy .... Old Z3 was very premium this same way ...
@@silva_br1 maybe they kinda lost that look on the curve back during xz2 but that was so very comfy i thought it was all bumpy but i held it on a store and i felt like a kid hahaha
No jack, no buy. They need to revive their compact series. 21:9 is a stupid format for phones - 16:9 FTW!
In 2 year you will not buy any top medel mobile when rest take away headphone jack .
riiight, meanhile most phone makers have 19,5:9 now, but if Sony does it, it's "dumb"
挺精致的
I saw the weird youtuber and he merely want people to watch his weird facial expression.
Please be professional and the spot light should be on the device.
Wait till someone from iPhonearena gives it a 7 or 8.
❤️💪
Jesus this guy is irritating
just buy one plus 7 pro and its almost 30% cheaper or if you wanna go for the best of the best just get Note 10 or even LG cause they atleast doing sumn interesting with their dual screen smartphone
sony making phones just for the sake of making phones and have no thought put into it..... i dont know who even buys sony phones nowdays
with a black hole on display ? absolutely No ! 😂
bs, you clearly haven't owned any Sony phone
@@crimsonlightbinder xperia z1 was last sony phone i owned and probably the last good phone they made
@@RugerTooWavy And boom! There you go, you said it yourself. When was Z1 released? 5-6 years ago.
Z3, Z5, XZ Premium, XZ1/XZ1 Compact, even XZ3 etc... One of the finest phones they made, Samsung's phones released in the same year as these, are nowhere competitive with them anymore, while these devices still perform solid. You probably didn't check these out because you had this sudden anger raised toward them for some odd reasons. :3
I know I've replied to your comments a lot (sorry if you're bothered) but I'm just curious to know the valid points behind your hatred toward Sony.
I buy them
