Finally an honest review from someone who actually looks into going into the software for better photo and video results instead of leaving everything on auto.
You perfectly summarized the phone's features in the end . That's how you review it . That's why i trust android central and mr mobile only for mobile reviews
@@indrakumargarg8688 these reviewers will provide reviews once i get their review device from sony .. I think mr mobile just got review device yesterday as he kept on his insta page
Spot on! Mr. mobile has been consistently honest about whatever he reviews and that too without forgetting important corners. On the other hand, sadly, we also have a lot of *so called reviewers* who simply copy from others and blabber in the name of reviewing with duplicate channel names and what not..
It's very rare to see someone review a Sony phone without any bias over Apple, Samsung, and the chinese phones. I only go to Btekt and Phone Battles when I need an Xperia device review. Good job to the reviewer in the video. 👍
Sony has really stepped up their Xperia line over the past few years. Coming from Moto phones I had an XZ Premium and I recently got an XZ2 Premium and love them both. Awesome displays, best smartphone batteries I've seen, clean software, nice design and build quality, and solid cameras. I miss the headphone jack but really everything else about these phones has been impressing me
@@KyleAlexanderkneeGrowPlz I just got the XZ2 Premium last week haha, the build quality is better than the previous gen (full metal frame instead of plastic side rails). It is pretty chunky but it's still manageable one handed and is very satisfying to use two handed, especially for typing.
I mostly only click likes for numerous estern based (chinese, taiwanese, japanese, etc) reviewers who mostly have same positive conlusions about this device. You are about only the fourth western review I agreed with. Which is a shame for the west really. Thumbs up.
I love this phone.. watching content in 4K HDR 60fps is incredible.... it has the fastest boot up time I've ever seen on a phone.. navigation is super fast.
The most satisfying review about the Xperia 1 I ever saw, thank you for your well knowledge about this device that many reviewers looks stupid and has no information about it.
And that's, ladies & gentleman, how you do an objective, non-biased quick phone review. Now compare it to the incompetenet pseudo-journalists from The Verge and their pathetic review. Night and Day...
the verge did a way better job at mentioning what the phone is missing. this review skipped all that and only say good thing about this phone. I'd say this review is extremely subjective and biased.
The Verge at least is brutally honest about what the Xperia 1 is missing. Talking about only the good parts is, in fact, much more biased, especially when you don't mention how it stacks up to the competition . Calling them pseudo journalists is like calling you a pseudo tech enthusiast. Your Sony bias has you completely blind to the phone's shortcomings.
Actually the last 25 secs is exactly where xperia is.. Such beautiful looking device with an overall premium build quality covering all the top end features of an android smartphone.. Hugely underrated flagship.!
I've just preordered it with the bundle comes with the noise canceling sony headphones 1000X M3 free Totla was $950 instead of $1300 with free shipping
Watching your video, I get the impression that people were paid to give it bad reviews. Unfortunately for them, the world has seen the truth and Xperia 1 has run out of stock in most shops around the world. Good phones come from Sony.
I'm over it, i've been headphone jackless with my iphone 7 for nearly 3 years now and im used to it. Its time to move on i guess, at least this phone has LDAC.
@@Malinkadink I'll never get over it. Wired headphones are a model of simplicity. No batteries to ever charge nor replace, if that's even an option once the batteries go bad. I do get the luxury of no wires, but I think it should be an option to use wired headphones if you want to without a clunky adapter.
Actually they didnt. The 21:9 screen ratio is a way to give two wins. Narrow to hold and a big screen in the same time. The phone has a big screen but still kinda compact. Just look at the Xperia 10 that is almost in the same with as my X compact and XZ1 compact. It almost feels the very same. Sure Xperia 1 is a little bigger, but still not that bigger.
like this review, saying the truth.. i have this phone and more less my feel or impression is same as him. he can using side sense so easier than few reviewer out there, how can be?
that's how you review a phone if you got a phone you got to review to it's full potential and you did good reviewing this...unlike other reviewers they would just compare and talk shit about the device
impatiently waiting for mine to arrive in 4 days. like yours? i've seen a few people say they have serious overheating problems, especially while using the camera. had any overheating issues with yours?
Everything else is behind other phones. Poor dynamic range, no video stabilization, low speaker quality, top bezel, no jack... I wanted to like it but cant.
I was at Bestbuy today checking out this phone and even though its little tall, the picture quality just snapping inside picture was amazing better then my iphone x or samsung galaxy s10e (i have both) I think I will be getting sony xperia 5 just because its little smaller.
Nice review 👍🏽 About the fp sensor you need to change the position(like the images sugest) while setting them up to let it work correct. I've noticed that on the side mounted fp scanners settimg them up costs a little more effort as jou need to register more fingers. right thumb, left index/middle/ring finger for when holding the phone and left thumb, right index and middle finger for when on the ground or car holder (in 1 of those positions also)
i saw another reviewer entering his thumb from every possible position and he said it works great. i've seen a lot of reviewers and comments from people saying the fingerprint scanner is terrible on this phone, but i found like 2 reviewers that say it works perfectly. guess i'll find out when i get mine in 4 days.
i've been using txtnow app for wifi calls. it used to be good but now it's so flooded with ads it crashes the app constantly. just ordered the xperia 1, not sure if having a more powerful phone will prevent those crashes or if i'll have to try another app. there are plenty to choose from.
4:51 Damn straight. I love the Pixel 3 XL, but man is it abysmal in RAM management and battery life longevity. These are things I really did not have a problem with on my Xperia XZ1. Love the Pixel's camera, but Sony really does omptimization really well.
What is the camera performance like in detail? I have a Note 9, and I'm actually quite disappointed by the camera performance. I'm thinking of going for a Huawei phone next, but the Xperia 1 looks good.
@@hariznonis from everything i've been hearing to get the most out the camera you have to learn how to use manual mode, and the auto mode is not nearly as good. there are some vids on youtube that explain the best settings for various conditions using the manual mode on this camera. if you don't want to mess with all that you may not like this.
After seeing bunch of mad comments, finally I understood sony fanboys unsatisfied feelings that they could not say sony is the best because no one give a bit of interest to sony 😂
You are the only person who thinks the camera is better than the OnePlus 7 Pro. Also, are you sure about that battery life? Most other people say it's mediocre.
I've seen the samples if u just look at them side by side u'll think that Xperia 1 is not doing good enough but if u zoom in Sony has the most detailed night shots, bcuz Sony doesn't use hdr in auto mood and over exposure the scene (actually a little bit under exposure) it looks like less detailed photo, samples in this link if u r curious drive.google.com/file/d/1gAThkUH3sIb2MjsDDC9tazer5Vqaf50K/view
I felt the same about the headphone jack, but on the other hand most headphones are wireless anyways now adays. And you can't tell the difference in quality. Battery wise, it keeps up with almost all the other phones with larger battery, check out phone battles ^^
it comes with a headphone adapter in the box and it's pretty small so it's not that big of a deal, unless you charge and listen to the headphones at the same time a lot. as for the battery that had me a little worried but from everything i've heard the battery life is surprisingly good, and the batteries in sony are very good long term, still like new after a couple years. i ordered my x1, can't wait til it gets here in 4 days.

It just pains me to see from other reviewers to compare camera software and not add cinema pro to the equation its well established as a camera to me thats just dishonest and bias as well as purposly putting a bottleneck on the device.

Great review with unbiased thoughts.. 👍
One of the very few
I love Sony and I loved this video so much that I subscribed
Am i the only one who noticed that he was wearing Mr. Mobile t-shirt?
No one's saying it's a bad phone but what people are trying to say is that there's really nothing unique that stands out besides the display

But if you want buy Sony Xperia 1 with dual sim buy model j9110 and don’t buy model j8170 because single sim
Would you recommend me buying this phone for $644?
