Fingerprint in the POWERBUTTON is the most efficient way . Everyone should be appreciating the way SONY is doing with it, rather putting an inefficient in display fingerprint.
@@africantwin173 you'll be the only one buying it 😂 You're dreaming. Also, Sony's compact phones were never this small and were always flagships, not cheap.
One thing I really love about XPERIA is that their distinctive design. They stick with their own and not following those curved screen, punch hole and notch. Smartphone nowadays are so similar to each other, confusing which is which. Also, the very rounded corners doesn't look nice for me, it's useless. XPERIA 1 ii is just perfect for me, plus many additional new features that other brands don't have. HS Technology and wind filter. Sony is known for its many world's firsts innovations
You're absolutely right. Also, I don't know why so many people complain about some bezels, even if they are pretty small.. I mean, the previous Xperia phones still have very much display on the front side. I also appreciate there design and the fact, that they don't copy someone like everyone else is doing right now on the market.

@Ahmd Bin Arif I have plenty of options. How does choosing Samsung eliminate other potential options? If I chose Sony, would the same be true? I chose my Samsung Note 9 because at the time it best suited my needs. If Sony were to release a phone that would suit my needs, I would purchase their phone. Sony however seems to be going in a different direction that does not catoe to my needs, but that is just fine. That's the beauty of choice and competition in the market. A Sony doesn't suit my needs, but it might yours. Just like a Samsung might not suit your needs, but it does mine.
@@ThePaulKM yes. I agree. I use Samsung to before, plus, I've used Xiaomi, Blackberry, and Samsung, now I'm on Sony. Not because it's the best, but it's just my preference due to it's manual camera capability when taking still photo, EIS on video recording, dual front facing speaker, well optamize software, and brilliant battery quality over long term use. To be clear, I use Sony Xperia XZ1, old, but powerful until now. I use it since 2018, but in 2019, I bought Galaxy Note 8 and gave this XZ1 to my brother just to experience Galaxy Note 8. Yes Note 8 is so good for productive because it's easy to do work on phone screen with it's pen. I used it a lot to edit photos and videos on it. Also it comes in handy when I want to use Adobe Acrobat. I use that phone because I don't have laptop or PC at the time. Super useful for me. But now I have a laptop, so I decided to change it back to my XZ1 and gave that Note 8 to my brother. Do I felt like there's no option, no. Not at all. Android is android, it's way easy to change to other android device. Plus, Android has so many options when it comes to self preference. SONY and LG is good for professional video maker. Samsung and Google is good for productivity, OnePlus is good for heavy user, and many more. So yeah, options? Tons of them out there.

Finally, Xperia 1 II is improving. And I liked how Sony listened to their fans, like... *THAT JACC* This is the phone that combines some nice Sony technologies in the palm of your hand
Oh my god, ye, that jack is most needed, I don't care if I have to pay 1500 euro, I want to have a headphone jack, not use the fkin converter. My converter just got broken...
This is my first Sony phone my question is are the emojis original or the ghost ones that Android offers ? Have the note 8 now which are original. Had the v50 b4 & they were the ghost emojis.
Funny how people buy IPhones which does small changes to the camera and sells it at a massive price people buy it! Sony changes it completely and adds Zeiss tech which is not cheap and add headphones and people say its expensive!
Yes I was thinking the same. They have the stamina mode which slow down the charging after 90% or so to prolonged the battery life. GSMA should take note of this.
This is definitely a one two punch from Sony. Wow-we, vastly improved 📷's. The 4k beautiful display. Pricey at 1200.00 bucks USD but maybe worth it's weight. A flagship with a jack, very nice. For the first time ever, I may have to give this phone a long look see?
4k is overkill for a smartphone, a 120Hz QHD panel would have been better (would have also helped with battery life and performance). Pretty much the only nitpick I have.
Take note it doesn't have a dedicated night mode, how much more if they will include that mode...huawei will literally left the group...hehe just peace I'm just exaggerating here haha but atleast you can already tell that it will give a threat to whichever is the better low light performer if they include a night mode for that phone.
Fun facts about Sony phones Sony's phones are the first in everything.... First with: BLUETOOTH was a Sony phone WATER RESISTANT phone was a Sony phone 4K HDR video RECORDING phone was Sony First (phone) portable device to have 3.5mm headphone jack! (Forty years ago, on July 1, 1979, Sony's Walkman) to have 3D Creator technology was Sony with Eye A.F. at 20fps for professional portraits!! with Heat Suppression technology was introduced (ur phone dosent loose battery while playing games) INNOVATION!! with SUPER slow motion recording at 960fps w/ a 4k SCREEN RESOLUTION was Sony phone!! And for those who didn't know... IPhone cameras have Sony sensors :) up to this day! CONGRATS to Sony for the new ❤️ Xperia 1 II ❤️ crushes the competition hand's down! Thanks for likes! Just want to give credit where credit is due 😊
What you said is very true but it's not going to help the fact the allot of people are not going to buy this phone because of the price, Sony has been doing so bad in the phone market recently so this might be one of the last few phones we see from Sony before they become someone like HTC or Nokia and they end up pulling out of the phone market, only time will tell but I hope they do well.
And thats it? Props to Sony for that, i won't deny what they did, but it clearly too little to be called "first at everything"🤔 there are tons of other stuff and features, brought in by other companies.🤷♂️
Totally agree ps they started wireless charging too. My old xperia z3 had the magnetic connector on the side .. and still the only company to make an iP xx rated water resistant tablet .
@@scorpion199227 Price is important factor in the smartphone market, if Sony expects to continue down the high premium end then they are digging their own grave. If this phone sold at $1000 price point the sales would likely double.
I started loving Sony when my Aunt had the Sony W880/W880i. I like the Music it produces specially when you use big headphones. It's super rich and clear. 🥰
I just pre-ordered this phone. I live in Sweden and we are gonna get this phone earlier. I will get mine on 22nd June. The last phone I had was a Xperia XZ2 Compact. I also have a Galaxy Note 10 plus 12/256gb with the mediocre exynos processor. And trust me the Sony Xperia is just way better if you are a purist and don't like to show off. I also got the the WH-1000XM3 headphones free with the phone.
Honestly I was going to get this phone, but the lack of a higher refresh rate might make me go for the note 20+ (I got to used to the higher refresh rate and 3D FaceID with my Pixel 4xl - the two main reason I got it in the first place vs the note 10+). But since I will keep it I might just get the Sony. Waiting for note 20+ to be released to make a final decision. 🤞🏽
Well we in the Scandinavian countries don't get the headset with the phone we have to go to a swedish site and register to have sony to send us a headset... And it says"till stock last" stupid...
@@1ce2berg I am not still spoilt to the high refresh rate trend. And even if i want to buy, we cannot buy Pixel phones in Sweden. Google isn't officially selling Pixels here. I am a hobbyist photo-cinematographer so I like to have a camera which results images that are as close as possible to reality n terms of colours along with full manual control with raw images in all the back cameras for photo and video both. I also prefer stock/near stock Android with no notches/punch holes. After using a galaxy note 10 plus i learnt the hard way that we need at least some bezels with flatter displays. That bezel less waterfall display galaxy is horrible in terms of ergonomics. The recent trend about having a higher dynamic range and the intimate Pixel peeping friendly highest resolution don't matter to me as a photo-cimematographer as much as having maximum control over my imaging tool.

before this one people say sony makes shit phones when sony makes an actually good one people say too expensive when other phone asked for a same or higher price when they just release really????
@Tessoro Desoto go for them now and you get the best in class wireless earbuds from Sony or wait for few months and get it when price lowers a few 100 dollars or they may even release the 5 mark 2 .
yeah but with the alpha camera thing and the zeiss authorize the cost could be higher than other phones so imo 1200 is a decent price, they even give you a headphone if you buy it before 6/28
@Tessoro Desoto sure LG V60 costs 800 packs with many features that samsung could not get even it has active pen support like note 10 did with the same prices. but nobody gives a shitton of it because it's LG...same like Sony....people could do talk shit about phone but forgot how to hold it valuable...and that's not healthy for the smartphone community.
@Tessoro Desoto it's not "not supported" but "partially disabled". snapdragon 865 had 5g module but it didn't come out with 5mmwave stuffs. it still supported 5g outside US. 5g was a future that are not ready yet tho. funny that even 5g are still limited yet people are think that 5g tower are blasphemous things for spreading covid-19.

@@kasadam85 well to me, battery health is more important than faster charging, having to pry open the phone every 1-1.5 year & destroying the water resistant seal is a big no no for me, i can afford 2hr of full charging. No problemo for me
Been waiting to get a Sony phone again and the Xperia 1-ii is finally a big improvement having all the great features from Bravia, Alpha and Audio makes this an all in one great package. Sony's auto focus capabilities is like no other so this will be a great addition to my Sony RX100-VII.
Can't wait for what Sony planned to pull with the delayed battery test for software update. But considered Xperia 1 also with 4K HDR had such small capacity like 3330mAh and still managed to score 79h in endurance test which it about 5-6 hours SOT we can expect the mk II with 4000mAh to be good
I think the endurance will be pretty good here. First of all, the battery is much bigger then it was in the past year. And the endurance was already kind of "Ok" and average. Also, Sony is probably one of the best when it comes to optimizing the battery in terms of software .. Just take a look to the Galaxy phones. They have pretty much the same display on time as the Xperia 1, although the battery is much bigger (something like 5000 mAh whereas the Xperia 1 has just 3300 mAh).
In Japan they say emdurance is about the same. Enough for one day with heavy use. Being connected to 5G makes phones use more power. Techradar got satisfied with endurance.
i agree that size battery is going to be fine plus Sony always priorities battery life in terms of longevity vs fastest charging time and biggest battery.. based on my experience after a year you typically start seeing the gap shrink between Xperia and competitioners in terms of run time and especially by time the device reaches 3 to 4 years old
@@sedomedo in the past, even you don't have anything on the tray, you pop it out, phone will restart. And by saying so, I'm sure you never use any Sony Android phone before :)
pre-ordered Sony Xperia 1 II with a pair of Sony WH-1000XM3, was time to upgrade from my 6 year old sony xperia z2 can't wait! Problem is most of these features will be overlooked by "regular" phone reviewers. Then when samsung or iphone copies it it's suddenly a revolution. here are some features that stands out: - 4k,hdr,oled,643ppi density - the highest by a huge margin,1B colors screen, 60hz tho.. with fake 90hz, -21:9 ratio -H.S power control is a really good feature, you can cap your battery %, H.S. power control. When enabled, if you're gaming and the phone is plugged in the charger, it won't actually charge the battery but will only meet your current power consumption. The idea is to limit heat generation (H.S. stands for Heat Suppression) and in turn battery degradation. -you can take pictures in 20fps! -dedicated camera shutter key -3.5mm headphone jack -dual stereo speakers with dolby atmos - 360 Reality Audio -game enhancer if you care about that -almost stock android UI, with no bloatware, guaranteed stable and good software -cinema pro app and photo app with mirrorless camera features. the best camera apps you can get. -Zeiss optics -the telephoto lens has the full-frame equivalency of a 70mm lens, meaning it's actually a telephoto lens - Eye AF which is an autofocus tool borrowed from the $3,500 Sony A9 camera. Eye AF can identify a face in your frame and then lock in on your subject's eye, work on animals too these are some of the features that stands out and if you pre-order the phone you get a pair of Sony WH-1000XM3 or WF-1000XM3 included ! This phone looks like a complete package only cons are front camera aren't that great, 60hz with fake 90hz and ofc its very expensive.
yeah but, sony dont need a big battery to get a long running phone. My xperia 1, even though it just has a 3200mAh battery, lasts 1 - 1 1/2 day. So dont worry about it.
Leqso Gogishvili Sony makes the best displays , they make the most amazing audio equipment , they are undisputed kings at making cameras and videos equipment, they make the most acclaimed and loved video games , and above all their phones are loved by anyone who has used them ... still people feel that a washing machine and a refrigerator company makes better phones just cuz they ripped off apple and coped everything that they could from it while getting legally screwed and playing fines .
Finally Sony has improved their cameras to the level that was expected. I am seriously considering this phone, but the price is indeed a bit too steep for my wal.. I mean, taste.
@@paoloenricoleone it was made for. Post. Processing as it was developed by alpha division.today high dynamic range is achieved by extremely heavy processing that smears the fine detail. Sony didn't wanted to do that. But you can edit those photos to match the dr of any other flagship. And you will still get those awesome details like no other
@@-_--le3zk I know that, but even so the last year's Xperia 1 wasn't up to the task. Sony has improved the processing as well, because as much as I agree with you, this is still a smartphone camera, and 90% of people don't care for editing photos; they just want the image social media ready. If Sony focuses only on people who'll take a moment and edit the pics, this phone won't sell. And Sony is not a charitable company, they need to sell.
They also didn't elaborate on the heat suppression feature. When turned on, the battery won't be utilized, therefore it won't heat up. All you gotta do is plug the phone in an outlet and use it like a laptop plugged in without the battery. Through this, the phone can be used for prolonged gaming, film recording, rendering, etc. This phone basically has everything tbh. In a few months or so, we'll see these features in other brands and Sony won't be given credit as usual
@@Raja995mh33 Not really much of a gimmick. Interpolation is used all the time in games and animation. Makes sense they'd try and do that so they can have both a very smooth and 4k screen. Plus it'll use less power to pull off than a 90hz refresh rate
Most of these common reviewers give quick generic reviews. Which isn't a bad thing for the average users. Juan Bagnell and the photography channels does a better in-depth review.
@@mr559 What bothers me is that they will make generic reviews for brands like Sony, LG and so on. But they'll give you an infomercial for Samsung or Apple.

Not to mention being able to use the phone with the battery off. Plus the music app no need for 3rd party "permission for this, that, there, here" nonsense. And 4k screen.

@@Dimas-uc9vj Sony is a king of audio.. I still had a sony walkman and 90s Sony Speaker and they are still better than Bose for me. I used the Xperia one now because of bad iPhone experience. oh... PS1 is also the best CD player in the world.
This phone has to be my Favorite 😍 smartphone in 2020, but let's see if Asus And Samsung and other Brands that is still yet to launch a smartphone will surprise me, but at the time the Sony Xperia 1 II is my favorite phone of the year. I just love it ♥️♥️♥️
Note 20+ will nothing be too surprising. Reliable leaksters are already showing minor changes in the internals of the phone, heck they're even dropping the periscope lens of the S20 Ultra for a traditional telephoto camera on the upcoming Notes. Just the fact that it has a screen cutout alone makes it inferior to this Xperia 1 II. Multimedia is one of the most performed task in a smartphone, and having a cutout simply ruins the point of a full-screen design purpose.
Honestly I was going to get this phone, but the lack of a higher refresh rate might make me go for the note 20+ (I got to used to the higher refresh rate and 3D FaceID with my Pixel 4xl - the two main reason I got it in the first place vs the note 10+).

W H A T This is legitimately the phone I've been lusting after since three years! Front facing stereo, headphone jack, stock android (hopefully with custom ROM support), a decently large battery and no notch! Huzzah! Only thing I could ask for now is Fairphone level modification, removable battery and a higher refresh rate. But now I'm being greedy lol. Good on Sony for not following trends :)
The color accuracy and resolved detail in the photo samples looks great. I wish more smartphone makers strived for that instead of that cringy HDR look. There's a reason real photographers almost never aim to have HDR-looking photos and instead shoot for either more realistic or unique/creative composition.
The Sony Experia XZ2 premium has a higher PPI of 760! I still have that model from 2018 and still unbeaten when you talk about the best screen, but no Oled screen. In overall the Experia phones are getting better and better every year. Good job Sony.
First time i heard good remarks for sony xperia from gsmarena. I own a sony xperia z ultra and xperia xz premium. Before i dont like the z ultra because of the camera without flash but when i bought it i realize that you've got to have it before you judge it. When i bought my z ultra its already old enough that i bought it brandnew for only $150 my wife that time bought the newest samsung. And that time z ultra was 2 years older than that of my wife samsungs model. But now my z ultra still stay its charge more than my wife samsung. Im not saying buy all sony product and be a fan. But check it personally.
@@Jeroenneman Well, Xperia 1 of last year, Netflix did support 4K (Amazon Prime was not mentioned). The reason it capped at 1080p for Netflix due to COVID-19 pandemic and lower bandwidth is taken place as people are working from home until the pandemic is finished. Well, for brightness, It has to do with the longevity of the OLED screen itself, especially higher resolution.

I am so happy for Sony. Back in the day, I always used to have Sony Smartphones. I was kind of depressed that they failed pretty much und made some wrong decisions over the past years. But this phone is absolutely brilliant in my opinion. Like, everything they've done wrong in the past is fixed now. They are unique, follow the trend somehow but still make it their own way without copying all the other brands, as everyone else is doing on the market right now. Also, this phone is a real alternative compared to all the other phones on the market, cause it makes so many things different and has some really cool features no one else has (talking about the flagship phones). Like a separate camera button, a headphone jack, 21:9 aspect ratio, 4k display, fingerprint sensor included into the power button, no notch, punch hole or anything like that and so on.. Seriously. Give that phone a chance and don't stuck with any brand.
iPhones, Pixels and now the Xperia 1 II just proof that those stupid high resolution sensors most Android manufacturers are using are nothing but stupid.
@@Afnan912 Those numbers never matter. Even on the old Lumias. The Lumia 808 and 920 just had absolutely massive sensors - even compared to like the S20 Ultra. The Pixel size was still pretty good even with this resolution - something you can't say about current phones with 40+ MP cameras.
Perhaps the only distinct phone nowadays. Everything else looks the same... Samsung, Xiaomi, Huawei, Motorola, Nokia, LG, throw their phones in a pile and cover up the branding and chances are you won't be able to know what's what. Not sure if that's a good thing or a bad thing. I quite enjoy my new Xiaomi phone with it's teardrop notch and gently curved design. But I'm glad to see another company making phones that look... distinctive.
the heat suppression look beast,make your phone still function and can continue play your games without actual charge your battery so your phone don't go overheating because of using while charging
You didn't mention the 20fps burst mode and Eye auto focus on both human and animal, these features we're the highlights of the phone yet you didn't mention it.
Benchmark is BS, the Xperia 1 was not slower than other flagship and it performed faster than most flagship..higher refresh rate won't make the phone faster lol, it only feels smooth but the display quality is lower. The reviewer is already complaining lol, u will never see him complain about iPhone or Samsung like that lol...every phone has weakness
Agree... 90hz and 120hz panel really took down battery usage, and its pretty a gimmick, if most of apps (especially games) didnt support hfr and most of oled 90hz panel, got issues for durability... too many rog phone on my service table to repair cz just a small drop
@@kasadam85 This is the problem though. A reviewer has to review such a product in all fairness other wise what's the point? Good thing I make my own reviews and get what I want after some research.

So no one gonna talk about adaptive charging(H.S power control)introduced by SONY. Which is more useful than 4K display Sorry SONY your marketing sucks So sad
Already got the Xperia 1 since release. Sony is doing awesome with the Xperia 1 II. Looks like it is getting everyone's attention. I will wait until next year for the mark III.
Sony phones are amongst the best in the industry. Solid specs and the only phone with a 4K display! They stick their guns with their design which I admire. It does try to separate itself from it's competitors, which is a good thing to have some options.
Yet again people fail to mention that Sony is trying to bring back good sound quality by enabling Hi-Res outputs for high end headphones on Xperias and other devices.

Do I felt like there's no option, no. Not at all. Android is android, it's way easy to change to other android device. Plus, Android has so many options when it comes to self preference. SONY and LG is good for professional video maker. Samsung and Google is good for productivity, OnePlus is good for heavy user, and many more.
So yeah, options? Tons of them out there.
The notification LED is an absolute must for me. Can't believe so many remove it.
Or worst, that the low end does have them but not the flagship. My siblings LG K51 has one, while my V40 doesn't.
Hoping the new mark iii will keep the notification light
Dude just use always on display instead of notification light
Yes, i love it too. And i hope it can change the color depends on the notification just like last time
I wouldn't call a 3.5mm jack a retro feature.
I'd call it a premium feature. Anything that gives you less, is not premium for me.
people are so used to apple giving them less, and overpricing it that they really believe thats the case

This a problem Netflix has had since the beging, you'll never watch 2k HDR Neflix on your Samsung Galaxy S20 Ultra.

Isn't slowing charging speed approaching 100% always been a feature in all sony phones? In order to protect the battery longevity
You can plug in without charging the battery like on laptops.
Yes I was thinking the same. They have the stamina mode which slow down the charging after 90% or so to prolonged the battery life. GSMA should take note of this.
Yes and it's really great
Isn't that called Qnovo?
50% in 30 min.
The other 50% will be slower.
Those tools to protect battery sony uses.
This is definitely a one two punch from Sony. Wow-we, vastly improved 📷's. The 4k beautiful display. Pricey at 1200.00 bucks USD but maybe worth it's weight. A flagship with a jack, very nice. For the first time ever, I may have to give this phone a long look see?
For a long time android phone, sony is one of the few brand who gives 2-3 major update for their flagship, and 4 years security patch
They have a good pre-order offer as well, you get a pair of Sony noise cancelling pods (don't remember the model) but it costs around $200.

Fun facts about Sony phones
Sony's phones are the first in everything.... First with:
BLUETOOTH was a Sony phone
WATER RESISTANT phone was a Sony phone
4K HDR video RECORDING phone was Sony
First (phone) portable device to have 3.5mm headphone jack!
(Forty years ago, on July 1, 1979, Sony's Walkman)
to have 3D Creator technology was Sony
with Eye A.F. at 20fps for professional portraits!!
with Heat Suppression technology was introduced
(ur phone dosent loose battery while playing games) INNOVATION!!
with SUPER slow motion recording at 960fps
w/ a 4k SCREEN RESOLUTION was Sony phone!!
And for those who didn't know...
IPhone cameras have Sony sensors :) up to this day!
CONGRATS to Sony for the new ❤️ Xperia 1 II ❤️ crushes the competition hand's down!
Thanks for likes! Just want to give credit where credit is due 😊
Finally great to have someone who agrees with the facts! These are facts!
What you said is very true but it's not going to help the fact the allot of people are not going to buy this phone because of the price, Sony has been doing so bad in the phone market recently so this might be one of the last few phones we see from Sony before they become someone like HTC or Nokia and they end up pulling out of the phone market, only time will tell but I hope they do well.
And thats it? Props to Sony for that, i won't deny what they did, but it clearly too little to be called "first at everything"🤔 there are tons of other stuff and features, brought in by other companies.🤷♂️
Totally agree ps they started wireless charging too. My old xperia z3 had the magnetic connector on the side .. and still the only company to make an iP xx rated water resistant tablet .
@@scorpion199227 Price is important factor in the smartphone market, if Sony expects to continue down the high premium end then they are digging their own grave. If this phone sold at $1000 price point the sales would likely double.

Who are sony fans
👇👇👇
I'm a Sony fan since 1990
Had Xperia pro now have XZP, XZ3, and Xperia 1. 😉
always
I'm watching this on my Xperia XZs. Had a Z2 previously, loved em both 👍
I started loving Sony when my Aunt had the Sony W880/W880i. I like the Music it produces specially when you use big headphones. It's super rich and clear. 🥰
I like this phone so much. Even though I can't afford flagships I watch all reviews and this is my favorite so far.
“Has a headphone jack”

I also have a Galaxy Note 10 plus 12/256gb with the mediocre exynos processor. And trust me the Sony Xperia is just way better if you are a purist and don't like to show off. I also got the the WH-1000XM3 headphones free with the phone.
Honestly I was going to get this phone, but the lack of a higher refresh rate might make me go for the note 20+ (I got to used to the higher refresh rate and 3D FaceID with my Pixel 4xl - the two main reason I got it in the first place vs the note 10+). But since I will keep it I might just get the Sony. Waiting for note 20+ to be released to make a final decision. 🤞🏽

@@1ce2berg I am not still spoilt to the high refresh rate trend. And even if i want to buy, we cannot buy Pixel phones in Sweden. Google isn't officially selling Pixels here.

I also prefer stock/near stock Android with no notches/punch holes. After using a galaxy note 10 plus i learnt the hard way that we need at least some bezels with flatter displays. That bezel less waterfall display galaxy is horrible in terms of ergonomics. The recent trend about having a higher dynamic range and the intimate Pixel peeping friendly highest resolution don't matter to me as a photo-cimematographer as much as having maximum control over my imaging tool.

Where I can buy sony xperia 1||?
@@vibaredna960 Best buy, Amazon, BHphoto
@@bb2status how?
@@vibaredna960 I literally just told you....
Can't wait for what Sony planned to pull with the delayed battery test for software update. But considered Xperia 1 also with 4K HDR had such small capacity like 3330mAh and still managed to score 79h in endurance test which it about 5-6 hours SOT we can expect the mk II with 4000mAh to be good
I think the endurance will be pretty good here. First of all, the battery is much bigger then it was in the past year. And the endurance was already kind of "Ok" and average. Also, Sony is probably one of the best when it comes to optimizing the battery in terms of software .. Just take a look to the Galaxy phones. They have pretty much the same display on time as the Xperia 1, although the battery is much bigger (something like 5000 mAh whereas the Xperia 1 has just 3300 mAh).
In Japan they say emdurance is about the same. Enough for one day with heavy use.
Being connected to 5G makes phones use more power.
Techradar got satisfied with endurance.
Im just scared if too much use of that amazing camera will drain the battery, hopefully it's good
@@AzyYusry I don't think it will, unless you're constantly recoding in 4k 60FPS or something
i agree that size battery is going to be fine plus Sony always priorities battery life in terms of longevity vs fastest charging time and biggest battery.. based on my experience after a year you typically start seeing the gap shrink between Xperia and competitioners in terms of run time and especially by time the device reaches 3 to 4 years old

pre-ordered Sony Xperia 1 II with a pair of Sony WH-1000XM3, was time to upgrade from my 6 year old sony xperia z2 can't wait!
Problem is most of these features will be overlooked by "regular" phone reviewers. Then when samsung or iphone copies it it's suddenly a revolution.
here are some features that stands out:
- 4k,hdr,oled,643ppi density - the highest by a huge margin,1B colors screen, 60hz tho.. with fake 90hz,
-21:9 ratio
-H.S power control is a really good feature, you can cap your battery %, H.S. power control. When enabled, if you're gaming and the phone is plugged in the charger, it won't actually charge the battery but will only meet your current power consumption. The idea is to limit heat generation (H.S. stands for Heat Suppression) and in turn battery degradation.
-you can take pictures in 20fps!
-dedicated camera shutter key
-3.5mm headphone jack
-dual stereo speakers with dolby atmos
- 360 Reality Audio
-game enhancer if you care about that
-almost stock android UI, with no bloatware, guaranteed stable and good software
-cinema pro app and photo app with mirrorless camera features. the best camera apps you can get.
-Zeiss optics
-the telephoto lens has the full-frame equivalency of a 70mm lens, meaning it's actually a telephoto lens
- Eye AF which is an autofocus tool borrowed from the $3,500 Sony A9 camera. Eye AF can identify a face in your frame and then lock in on your subject's eye, work on animals too
these are some of the features that stands out and if you pre-order the phone you get a pair of Sony WH-1000XM3 or WF-1000XM3 included !
This phone looks like a complete package only cons are front camera aren't that great, 60hz with fake 90hz and ofc its very expensive.
Where do I order and get free headsets
While here I am, still stuck with my Samsung J5 Prime. Hahahaha
This is perfect, everything I want is there, couldn't ask for more except for the battery,I wish its 5000 mAh

You guys didn't mention the phone's motion blur reduction feature that's suppose to mimic a high refresh rate.
They also didn't elaborate on the heat suppression feature. When turned on, the battery won't be utilized, therefore it won't heat up. All you gotta do is plug the phone in an outlet and use it like a laptop plugged in without the battery. Through this, the phone can be used for prolonged gaming, film recording, rendering, etc. This phone basically has everything tbh. In a few months or so, we'll see these features in other brands and Sony won't be given credit as usual
This
it's a gimmick... that's why it's not mentioned.
@@Raja995mh33 Not really much of a gimmick. Interpolation is used all the time in games and animation. Makes sense they'd try and do that so they can have both a very smooth and 4k screen. Plus it'll use less power to pull off than a 90hz refresh rate
It's in the written review on their website: "We can't say we saw any appreciable difference with the feature turned on"
Not a single mention of real-time eye autofocus for people and animals...

Just the fact that it has a screen cutout alone makes it inferior to this Xperia 1 II. Multimedia is one of the most performed task in a smartphone, and having a cutout simply ruins the point of a full-screen design purpose.
Honestly I was going to get this phone, but the lack of a higher refresh rate might make me go for the note 20+ (I got to used to the higher refresh rate and 3D FaceID with my Pixel 4xl - the two main reason I got it in the first place vs the note 10+).

Only thing I could ask for now is Fairphone level modification, removable battery and a higher refresh rate. But now I'm being greedy lol. Good on Sony for not following trends :)
The color accuracy and resolved detail in the photo samples looks great. I wish more smartphone makers strived for that instead of that cringy HDR look. There's a reason real photographers almost never aim to have HDR-looking photos and instead shoot for either more realistic or unique/creative composition.
Watching it on my Xperia XZ(2016)....and it still going perfect in 2020.
I'm not a gamer, but when I saw the specs, I was amazed especially in the part of camera, the ZEISS lens is amazing!!
The Sony Experia XZ2 premium has a higher PPI of 760!
I still have that model from 2018 and still unbeaten when you talk about the best screen, but no Oled screen.
In overall the Experia phones are getting better and better every year.
Good job Sony.
Did Sony finally use their sensors well in a phone? Crazy.
Something good is happening in smartphone industry 👍🏼
Good to see something different too
I got a Sony 1 about a year ago. Very happy with my Xperia, can't fault it really and no plans to upgrade. Sony 1 mark II pops up. Ok, I may upgrade.
First time i heard good remarks for sony xperia from gsmarena. I own a sony xperia z ultra and xperia xz premium. Before i dont like the z ultra because of the camera without flash but when i bought it i realize that you've got to have it before you judge it. When i bought my z ultra its already old enough that i bought it brandnew for only $150 my wife that time bought the newest samsung. And that time z ultra was 2 years older than that of my wife samsungs model. But now my z ultra still stay its charge more than my wife samsung. Im not saying buy all sony product and be a fan. But check it personally.
I'm that dude that watches movies on his phones. So yes. This is the phone for me!
Except Netflix and Amazon are capped at 1080p, and brightness isn't much to write home about. So that 4K is pretty much specs only.
@@Jeroenneman Well, Xperia 1 of last year, Netflix did support 4K (Amazon Prime was not mentioned). The reason it capped at 1080p for Netflix due to COVID-19 pandemic and lower bandwidth is taken place as people are working from home until the pandemic is finished. Well, for brightness, It has to do with the longevity of the OLED screen itself, especially higher resolution.
@@SchneeHeldPascal7 you Sony fans have excuses for everything , who even uses their phone in full brightness all the time ? A higher brightness is a plus .
Sony usually has the best phones
Those small bezels are so much nicer than having a notch or holes on a display in my opinion!
I am so happy for Sony. Back in the day, I always used to have Sony Smartphones. I was kind of depressed that they failed pretty much und made some wrong decisions over the past years.
But this phone is absolutely brilliant in my opinion. Like, everything they've done wrong in the past is fixed now. They are unique, follow the trend somehow but still make it their own way without copying all the other brands, as everyone else is doing on the market right now.
Also, this phone is a real alternative compared to all the other phones on the market, cause it makes so many things different and has some really cool features no one else has (talking about the flagship phones). Like a separate camera button, a headphone jack, 21:9 aspect ratio, 4k display, fingerprint sensor included into the power button, no notch, punch hole or anything like that and so on..
Seriously. Give that phone a chance and don't stuck with any brand.
This phone deserves the attention
8:46 damn! The cinema pro app looks amazing!
12 MP and gives best images.. Great in the current scenario
iPhones, Pixels and now the Xperia 1 II just proof that those stupid high resolution sensors most Android manufacturers are using are nothing but stupid.
@@Raja995mh33 Numbers don't matter unless you have old gen Nokia lumia phones
@@Afnan912 Those numbers never matter. Even on the old Lumias. The Lumia 808 and 920 just had absolutely massive sensors - even compared to like the S20 Ultra. The Pixel size was still pretty good even with this resolution - something you can't say about current phones with 40+ MP cameras.
Perhaps the only distinct phone nowadays. Everything else looks the same... Samsung, Xiaomi, Huawei, Motorola, Nokia, LG, throw their phones in a pile and cover up the branding and chances are you won't be able to know what's what.
Not sure if that's a good thing or a bad thing. I quite enjoy my new Xiaomi phone with it's teardrop notch and gently curved design. But I'm glad to see another company making phones that look... distinctive.
curved design screen is so fragile
the heat suppression look beast,make your phone still function and can continue play your games without actual charge your battery so your phone don't go overheating because of using while charging
The camera of this phone is a beast overalls smartphones 2020
You didn't mention the 20fps burst mode and Eye auto focus on both human and animal, these features we're the highlights of the phone yet you didn't mention it.
Benchmark is BS, the Xperia 1 was not slower than other flagship and it performed faster than most flagship..higher refresh rate won't make the phone faster lol, it only feels smooth but the display quality is lower. The reviewer is already complaining lol, u will never see him complain about iPhone or Samsung like that lol...every phone has weakness
Agree... 90hz and 120hz panel really took down battery usage, and its pretty a gimmick, if most of apps (especially games) didnt support hfr
and most of oled 90hz panel, got issues for durability... too many rog phone on my service table to repair cz just a small drop
Butthurt sony fan take it easy , he praised the phone a lot too .
@@kasadam85 This is the problem though. A reviewer has to review such a product in all fairness other wise what's the point? Good thing I make my own reviews and get what I want after some research. That's what's wrong with reviews now a days can't trust any of them. Some reviews even miss features in said "review". If you are going to do a review do it the right way or don't even bother really.
All the ppl complaining about the price need to know the price will come down after few months.
only 100 or 200 $ tho after 1 or 1.5 year later
Headphone jack?
Incredible Cinema and Photo Pro apps?
A gaming enhancer?
256 GB with 8 GB RAM and expandable memory?
4K screen with a long aspect ratio?
Beautiful design?
Cheaper than the S20 Ultra?
No punch-in hole, small bezels with actual good-sounding stereo speakers?
Latest CPU and GPU?
Fingerprint scanner on the side?
Now I definitely know this phone is perfect for me.
/headphone jack
this about audiophile, hi-res 24-bit/192kHz FLAC or DSD, remember Sony is audio quality
This phone is straight up fire. Pre-ordered mine from B & H. Coming from a Pixel 4 XL.
Will you buy the Pixel 5 XL when it comes out in November because that'll be better than this?
@@scorpion199227 no. I will hold off. I am more than sure this phone is what I have always wanted.
It's the dude from "no country for old men"
A flat screen? Thank goodness..
Yes and no camera Notch either.. i ordered mine !!
@@gottapointthere7912 did you get the headphones?
@@lucianistoc1264 I never got the phone was backordered like 2 months so I'm going to wait..
@@gottapointthere7912 oh, that's not nice. Let me know if you get it.
So no one gonna talk about adaptive charging(H.S power control)introduced by SONY. Which is more useful than 4K display
Sorry SONY your marketing sucks
So sad
This is a beast even without high refresh rate screen!
Already got the Xperia 1 since release. Sony is doing awesome with the Xperia 1 II. Looks like it is getting everyone's attention. I will wait until next year for the mark III.
Болгарам привет!)
I like how Sony brought back the headphone jack, saying a big FU to Apple, Samsung, Huawei, Oneplus flagships.
It's nice but it's not the best by a long shot. That would be fine but in UK these are £1080!! Insane. Obviously it's not worth it.
Watching this on my Sony Xperia 1 II phone.
Bought last year Halloween.
And the performance still SUPER AMAZING!
Sony phones are amongst the best in the industry. Solid specs and the only phone with a 4K display! They stick their guns with their design which I admire. It does try to separate itself from it's competitors, which is a good thing to have some options.
I agree with you, they are not being generic and I definitely like that.
I'll have to admit, Sony is one stylus away from beating Samsung at the note game. (Coming from a note user)
When the company push screen to the edge.. They sacrifice double firing face front double speaker.. Which i hate.. But sony still
Yet again people fail to mention that Sony is trying to bring back good sound quality by enabling Hi-Res outputs for high end headphones on Xperias and other devices.
More important than the camera for me!
Back to Iphone challenger Camera King status 🔥 good luck my old ❤ be back in Sri Lanka
Waw I fell in love with this design, very elegant and above all looks nothing like the others on the market
