Sony smartphone division putting more effort in Audio, photography, videography giving the user more controls than any other phone.. And even the device have a headphone jack and a sd card slot... They are choices... My opinion is that the manufacturer should not control the buyer, they must provide options and choices...Xperia is doing that and i respect that...
that's why their share on the market equals to zero.
agreed. if only they could lower their price to fight with competitors
That is the thinking or grown and smart man.
@@kjererrt7804 you buy a phone not their market share
@@monarakudumbiya957 everything is interconnected. it indicates nobody's buying their phones. same happened to meizu brand. they made outstanding AUDIOPHILE phones but they went bankrupt. basically half of their phones were music phones. and there is a million of such cases.
In the wired S22 vs Xperia test at the end I could clearly hear compression and frequency stripping in the S22 audio that wasn't there in the Xperia. The tone of the voice and rhythm guitar on the Xperia was fuller and clearer. I know which one I'd buy.
I heard that, as well. I'm glad someone else pointed it out.
yeah... is not very hard to distinguish this but why he said they are equal... this can discredit the review totally.
Also seems like a lot of the focus of the Xperia is on wireless experience. Pretty sure if you bought this phone you are usually using some decent quality Bose, Sony, or other wireless cans. I think even audiophiles probably reserve wired for desk or room speakers (of course not all).

Speaking of sound quality. I miss the LG phones with their excellent DACs.
Yeah the Quad DACs were good
@@aaronloudnwireless yep. Unfortunately they have stopped their phone line. 🥲
@@aaronloudnwireless Right? I still have my LG G8 ThinQ but it is buggy after taking a dip in the ocean and I am now agonizing between the Xperia 1 iv and the Pixel 7 Pro and the audio quality for music and movies is a big deal for me - have you compared those two or have plans to? Thanks!
Yeah... I even bought on ebay spare V60. just in case my current V60 dies... No any phone since LG V60 can match the quality on DAC and EQ posibilities!
@@pauliusb true. I'm sad that they have killed their phone branch 😪
Sony needs a walkman phone with a DAC on par with LG V series or better, large screen and their best camera and I'd buy it today
For sure but that’s a tiny tiny market, and it already exists but is very expensive
@@asotomayorare you talking about dap's?
The convenience of not having to use a dongle though, I'd get it for that reason alone
I just wanna say one more thing Aaron . You're doing really well with your channel . Keep it up ! Can't wait for the 100k video ;)
Thank you! Just keeping at the grind!
I am watching your video with my xperia 1ii using a 3.5mm jack earphone. The reason I bought this xperia is because of the 3.5mm and sdcard slot.. I love the top headphones jack because I can watch videoes on youtube, facebook or tiktok in portrait but if i had to use the usb c port I need to buy a phone stand and carry it with me everyday.
I also have WH1000XM3 when I want to enjoy songs
Been using sony phones from the day of sony Ericsson and one thing is for sure i had the Sony Ericsson k850i the audio from that phone was superb, i once took a video with it and it was a party the music was very loud but the transition from a room full of blast music going outside.i listened thru headset from sony i still remember how good everything was, from those mic.... And that time we were still using the adapter to plug in your 3.5mm jack
Useful review. I am thinking about this model by several reasons.
The xperia 1 iv headphone jack is good enough for most low impedance headphones just like its predecessors, It's mostly there for convenience or MIC input. Once you get to the higher volume adjusting there is definitely clipping. Now output through a proper dac/amp through the TYPE C port there are night and day results. The Xperia dsp delivers very good results and can get very very loud for example with some high impedance sennheisers without distortion.
Listening with my Elac Debut Reference speakers(pretty flat) it was striking how different wired was. The center image became significantly more focused in wired mode.
Excellent demo
Exactly the video I wanted Thanks!
No problem!
Thanks for the info. :)
I have the Xperia III. I have Dolby dynamic on and dsee on too. I feel the difference with these on but with dsee is difficult to distinguish. 360 audio didn't like so much but sounds better when it has no analyzed shape of your ears.
I have an xperia m4 the sound quality is good but i really miss the clear bass on the past xperia phones those are superb quality sound..
thanks for useful information, I'm considering buying an Xperia 1 IV because of the 3.5 jack, but now I'm on my second thought...
Excellent presentation Aaron. Well done
Thanks!
Great review aaron. Thanks for the comparison. I was hoping someone review the xperia 1 iv audio quality and luckily u did. At the moment looking for my aging huawei mate20x replacement, but so far none has found. I did A-b'ing test with hiby r5, samsung note 9 and s22 ultra (pair with dongle like cayin r6, hidizs s9 pro & cxpro). Nothing beats mate20x in terms of overall sounding, especially the sense of sound space. Not that significantly more spacious than others, but i can hear mate20x deliver better listening experience. Its strange as the sound signature output should always follow dongle dac, but somehow it kinda mixed up with phone/dap im using and produce different sounding.
Thanks for watching! Yes the dongle dac plays a role but the phone’s internal processes does influence output to an extent.
What is mate20x?
Thanks for this informative review Aaron!
No problem, thanks for watching!
Premium audio is important to me, hence why the V60 is my daily driver. It's unfortunate Sony doesn't include an ESS Sabre DAC in the Xperia. I also have an ROG Phone 5s and it has excellent sound quality.
will the v60 sounds nice in android auto mode?
LG V 20 is cool too.
ROG 5s exellent soud quality? Are you serious? Just 2 days ago I have bought Rog 5s with a hope I can replace my V60. That was bad idea. Terribe sound from Asus and useless EQ (terrible artificial damage to the sound). Returned Rog5s and ordered from ebay one more LG V60 (just in case my current dies).
@@pauliusb I have since moved on to an ASUS_AI2201_D 6 Pro, which is currently my daily driver. Audio quality is also exceptional. The V60 had a good run.
I have rogphone 5s but quality is weird. Output have better amp for high impedance headphones xD but with iems with 30ohms sound really sucks. But better than V30 etc.
Nice and calm review✌️💚
Thank you!
thanx for your dedication, blessings
Always welcome
Regarding the DAC. Sony for the 1 II or 1 III was marketing a special chip they build in for better stereo separation. I am not sure if the 1 IV still has it or needs it as Qualcomm usually updates their DSPs pretty good.
Great video btw.
Thanks! If they still have that chip they certainly are keeping it quiet.
Do you that special chip is in the Xperia1 I mean the first of the series Thanks
@@eduardodavidzgalkaplan8253 Mark 2 for sure. mark 1 nope
sony doesn't use standalone DACs. they use a codec.
sony uses Cirrus Logic
As a mild audiophile I still use an Xperia 5ii and prefer it to my slightly newer Samsung S21 FE 5G for musical duties.
The Xperia jack gets slightly louder by enabling Dolby Atmos but it only plays 16-bit thereafter. Enabling 24-bit audio is a bit anemic for my Audio Technica ATH-M50x but I use a Fiio amplifier to get around and the results are astounding. However, the extra tech reduces mobility while listening.
I recently purchased a pair of KZ ZS10 pro earbuds and now I don't have to turn up the knob to 100% to get eardrum shattering undistorted sound at a relatively cheap price (50 USD). Don't need anything further.
Also find significant improvements using DSEE Ultimate while listening to 60s / 70s music although it drains the battery quite a lot faster.
Would be happy to buy Xperia again but not for over 1400 dollars - the old one cost less than 900 and is going great.
Thank you for your pov on sound performance.
Will the overall performance be compaitble to Sony’e entry level dap, a306?
I think Sony Xperia sounds way better than the Samsung Galaxy. The Samsung sounded dull and muddy to me, compared to the Sony.
Speakers or via headphones? Be specific.
Dual AKM or ESS dac would be a nice addition to this flagship.
I definitely miss Dseehx, but it can be solved with in-the-playback-device dseehx, like in speakers or headphones.
I might not need the headphone jack, but the DSEE Extreme stuff and everything would allow me to get the very best out of my Hifiman Svanar Wireless buds, so a Sony phone is still tempting, do any competing brands have equivalents to DSEE? Something trying to compensate for the compression?
Am listening music on Dolby sound on and 360upmix on cinema mode, amazing sound in my car 🚗💨
Hi! Where have you got your wallpaper from?
Sony Xperia 1 IV has a great sound quality i use Dolby Sound + 360 Upmix at the same time... and its great! Better than other smartphones i had until now the sound is clear and it sems like i can hear the instruments separetely. My Galaxy S21 was not so good.
Wired , in any device, headphones, car, etc, you feel the beats, the drums hit you inside your body, wireless feel like fake music, not that it sounds bad at all, but there is a difference wired vs wireless.
If you use sbc in 128kbps it's anything but surprising. The car already is rarely a hifi system and even less chance of finding an aptx codec... Your headphones, but you use the same Helmet ? Or you change, what codec do you have? And did you do a blind test?
With LG having left the mobile market I'm wondering what to get after my LG v60.
I've been disappointed with Samsung's audio and I'm using a range of earphones and headphones, wired and wireless. And planar needs a decent DAC. So, most likely I'll get a Sony or perhaps Asus.
Sony always give more and the best quality off all.
What about does usb c to 3.5 jack adapters that have i integrated dac are they eny good?
@@lobo-uh2tb there are a couple but I just found it a pain to remember and the extra cable sticking out.
I ended up buying a DAP, and using a 4.4mm balanced cable output on my detachable earbuds (MMCX). I was surprised at the difference over the 3.5mm output - the sound stage is wider, goes back further and there's more detail in everything, voices and instruments. Also, I need a lower volume setting with my 4.4mm cable compared to the 3.5mm cable kit also has a USB c to lightning dongle so I can use it on an iPhone as well-those have but perfect output. Android is a pain, it resamples audio output, usually degrading it, though there are ways to bypass that).
I'm still going to hang onto my LG v60 for as long as possible. Some of the Asus phones also seem to have ESS Sabre DACs and 3.5mm output.
Buy another one new/good condition on ebay while you can :)
Sony dac/amp combo isn't really special. I recommend you look at some old lg v series phones with their quad dac.
2:19 Sound demos and tests start.
That Dolby Sound sounded impressive! As an iphone user, I would def love to have that. I even listened on my M4's.
Nice! Yeah it is actually
Do you know maybe how it compares with Asus rog phone 6 speakers? I am very interested.
Wow, there's quite a difference (LDAC & DSEE, that is). I like that DSEE is on the phone, as it would save battery on the earbuds/headphones.
I'm a big fan of *Sony Xperia* phones. I've had 2. I just can't afford them. 😏 I still find my last one (XZ midnight blue) such an elegant design. I hated to put a case on it. But the USB-C port went out a few months after I bought it, so now I'm using a Samsung S20fe. Oh, well.🤷🏼♂️
Finally, I had no idea that you had something like _Bob!_ I honestly didn't know such a thing existed! 😄 That is so cool! 😃
Pity! Sony makes great phones but the Xperias are on the pricier side. So far Bob is in the running for employee of the month.
The vocals were night and day. Wired ftw
Does Xperia 5 IV have the same pre built Hi Res DAC??
Well yea, this 3.5mm thing is really interesting as those who actually care about quality would buy an external DAC either way, which makes the 3.5mm sounding a bit useless, however i still think that its a nice to have thing as a Backup solution at least. But still as i learn more about audio (from RUclipsrs), even tought everyone just say 'bring it back' and all, but at the end of the day, not many would use that with a quality Headphone as they are just so weaker compared to an external DAC.
I'm super happy this phone exists because I needed a high quality phone with 3,5mm audio jack to record. Because with the phone I have atm, I can't plug microphone and hear the music at the same time because there's only the usb. There's audio delay with bluetooth and you can't record music with that. Plus I really hate when I have inspiration but I need to wait for the phone's battery to be full... So I really hope there will always be a phone with 3,5mm audio jack.
@@nyyminuolivaara Asus phones also have headphones jacks.
You can buy an older LG phone like the G8, V60, etc which have a headphone jack AND a built-in Quad DAC.
Many thanks for that great video sir, it really helps in understanding the sound properties! May I ask you if Samsung Galaxy S20 Ultra would succumb to Sony 1 IV sound quality? I just want to save some money. But I am a musician myself and hence expect some crystal clear sound (in headphones) from the phone. Tired of muddy sounds, need some bright sound.
I dunno about those software gimmicks.
It just sounds "different" or doesn´t do anything to my ears.
I have a Xperia 5 III unlocked and running LineageOS and this just sounds beatiful the way it is.
LineageOS obviously comes without any proprietary sony software or features, which i think is a good thing.
It´s even capable of driving my Beyerdynamic DT 1990 pro decently.
These are basically high impedance (250 ohm) studio headphones, so very accurate sound reproduction.
Some mixer_paths.xml tweaks, the headphone output gain is slightly increased and the Hi-Res decoding capabilities are working flawlessly with Poweramp.
Viper4Android covers all my equalizer needs (although i rarely use EQ, i have decent headphones that don´t need tweaking around).
This is very informative. I really thought SONY Xperia 1 IV is a game changer in cellphones audio. I see in your video that there is a difference, but not THAT big. I guess the huge thing that this phone can do is if you’re using it in music video making and attaching your keyboard synthesizer or mic to its 3.55 headphone jack. As a lot of RUclipsrs are doing in music video making with their band.
That’s Sony’s Music Pro app, seems pretty good
Exactly this. I'm buying the Mark IV largely for the Music Pro App.
@avenuePad Same here.Sony is just another level.
A bit late.. Hm does it has usb c anyway? Tq sir
Sony has a history of complying to BS regulations in certain regions. Remember they limited the volume of Walkmans in EU regions, and seem to do the same with Xperia phones. They don't use any dedicated DAC or amp for Xperia phones and the output voltage tends to be low. Teardowns show dual DACs but these are used for the speakers! I've seen some comments claiming the Xperia Z3 still had good sound and that "somehow the dual DACs must be used" but it just sounds like a placebo. I had the Xperia Z5 which was good enough for IEMs but barely loud enough for something like the ATH-MSR7 or M50x. Like your demo comparison here of the 1 IV with the S22 the treble seemed rather peaky at times.
How does the Sony 1 vi compare?
Greaattt review
Thank you!
will this phone make the sounds better in Android Auto mode via USB C?
I dont think there is any audiophile using xm4's or any other consumer bluetooth headphone for critical listening. The only thing Audiophiles want for a phone is a powerful enough built in amp to run higher impedance and/or lower sensitivity headphones/iems. The Sony XM4 is super sensitive and low impedance plus it was never designed to be used with an external dac/amp so its a really awful choice for trying to identify the differences between it and another phone since it will realistically sound awful on any dac/amp when in the off state. Also the S22 doesnt have any onboard dac/amp so its pointless using it as an example device without telling us what dongle dac you actually used in the comparison, for all we know that was a $100 dac/amp, or it could have been $5.
You need to take a higher impedence headphone like a HD600 or a Planar with low sensitivity and then compare it to another device with a headphone jack or compare it to a dongle that you name so we can have context for the comparison.
Pretty sure that is a hifiman sundara box sitting in the background there (hard to tell, its quite blurry) that would have made a pretty ideal headphone for testing if thats the case.
Edit: never mind, that isnt a sundara haha
Thank you for your input!
@@aaronloudnwireless I do apologise if it came off a bit harsh, I kept trying to rewrite it so that it wasnt but I failed miserably. I do really like your content its how I bought my last pair of wireless buds. I just think alternative headphones would have been far more revealing to issues especially when it comes to power. I use an apple dongle when on the go (p6p, no jack) and its completely inadequate for driving my 6XX or Sundara, it just can't produce enough power. If the Mark4 can produce a lot more power, that may make it quite valuable to someone who is in the market for a DAP. That being said I think your video was very helpful when it comes to the software tools that the device has.
@@JoeNokers no, not at all! It’s good input. Appreciate you taking the time to comment!
Everyone should do as us to get that high end on phone. I think they fool people when you remove wired jack for people. And people think wireless is better thsn ever when remove 3.5..
Allways 3.5 or no phone for me
Samsung dont even have sd card now a days.. 💚✌️
@@DannyoRaiden but bluetooth is indeed better than the builtin headphone jack of the 1 IV
Sorry but without a secondary usb C for power supply whilst one uses the alternative usb C to send signal to an external dac is not an audiofile phone.
Rock n' Roll please! In other words, why not do an audiophile check with actual instrumentation for us old folks? Great video otherwise, but the song choice, please diversify.
Very interesting. Why didn’t you use the XM5s..?
Thanks! The XM4s are still the mainstream ones at the moment
XM4 headphones are not usable for testing. They are super comfortable but seriously lacking in sound quality. And they heavily rely on internal DSP when connected wirelessly. You better switch from useless LDAC to regular SBC and reduce that overwhelming bass boost.
Love the unintentional(?) nod to the late Godfather Kevin Samuels may he RIP (the intro song to his show).
for the codec, we mean a difference between each phone with the same codec (as the sbc and aac). let me explain, some brands manage to modify the bit rate of the sbc and aac codecs, to change the the equalizer (it's illegal by the way but some or even many do it). Huawei is the worst example, their sbc codec has a lower bitrate, it has equalization which makes the sound ugly... and the hua Huawei don't have aptx or ldac... the only saving codec is THEIR codec (ldhc), you see the principle? we destroy the basic codecs, we block access to audiophile codecs and we force the m highlighting our codec otherwise impossible to have good sound quality with your phone. honor and Huawei that's it, I know that Vivo also did that but there I don't know if they continue. Oppo they were suspected by audiophiles but I don't know, never tested (even if they also use their Huawei codec... So many doubts) except that they allow aptx and ldac them. The m Best student in this story is Xiaomi, which does not change anything, even on its redmi. They respect all codecs (except their own... Because their proprietary codec is just a huge bug Embulant, only crashes, only cuts, the 144kbps sounds like 16, the 909 kbps sounds very bad and full of cuts...) The adaptive aptx sounds better and much more stable. Samsung on the other hand I Know that their Galaxy are irreproachable but not necessarily their A range... They have fun changing the one ui interface (for the A range it's the simplified version, the mid-range version of one Ui) then probable that they touched with the SBC, especially that they have the jack which besides is not very very good.
This deserves a whole separate video
@@aaronloudnwireless I also think, the only video that talked about that is technoid, a French youtuber. In English I have not found anything so well explained.
Not sure about Huawei and what the SBC bitpool is but Samsung does the same thing, they set a bitpool value of 37 on all Galaxy Buds lineup which made it practically unusuable for music listening on Windows 10 or older, the only saving grace was when Windows 11 introduced AAC. Most standard Bluetooth devices have bitpool 53 which isn't perfect but decent enough for some music listening (a bit less detailed than AAC and bass tends to be more boomy)
Ahhhhhhh.....Kevin Samuel's vibe😉😉😉😉
What about does usb c to 3.5 jack adapters that have i integrated dac are they eny good?
The one I have has integrated DAC and it's good so far
@@aaronloudnwireless thats good to hear because it looks like this is going to be the only option in the future because companys are obsessed with getting rid of the headphone jack. Thanks for your reply 👍
I personally liked the 360 Upmix
The Sony sounded better than the Samsung. It like CD verses XM. The Samsung is the XM in this comparison.
Very technical analysis but we can also hear the results. I didn't hear a big difference. How about Sony Xperia vs. a lot of portable speakers like the Marshall Emberton you recently reviewed?
Thanks! You won't be able to enjoy the Xperia's audio features that much with portable speakers. You get the most out of headphones because you get a lot more separation and detail out of them.
@@aaronloudnwireless Is it true that: Phone + headphones or earphones > phone with portable speaker connected by Bluetooth > phone alone, with sound from phone speaker?
@@woofinu Exactly
@@aaronloudnwireless Is that also true for tablets like an iPad or Samsung Galaxy Tab? Are phones and tablets equivalent in terms of audio, or are tablets better because most have more and better speakers?
@@woofinu Tablets have bigger speakers and more spread than phones in general especially the recent ones
I still have sound issues with headphones on this device. I regret buying it so much.
The price is killing me 😂
😂
Axon 7 still the best?
Seriously, people spend as much on a phone as a MacBook pro or iMac? Consumers need to wake up, everything is getting more expensive, more complicated, and harder to repair because of our choices.
Even those high end Sony headphones or earbuds are an example (I own them as well), will they still be kicking in 20 years like my super old Sony's, doubt it. And they cost almost 3x more.
it uses a codec. correct me if it's not so.
HI,
why on earth can u ever get better sound quality from wireless? this is really bad. can u do a comparison on an lg v60?
Hey man, is Sony Xperia 1 IV your new Android phone daily driver?
Pretty much!
@@aaronloudnwireless Oh wow, I use the Xperia 1 II. I was so excited for the 1 IV to change my daily driver but not until the price and the quick overheating issue 😅. Maybe Xperia 1 V will be better OR more reasonable to buy 'cause I'm very sure the price will be higher next year.
You'd think wired would sound better but in my opinion the wireless sounded better !
it's impossible
Yes it makes sense.
Wireless filters out some unpleasant frequencies.
Wired sounded more defined to me.
Noice!
why don't they add a physical play/pause/skip button? this is the most annoying thing about smartphones. people just don't care. also, what is it's output power in mW? whether it's audiophile or not depends on many things. DAC, amplifier, software, whether the signal can bypass android or not. dolby doesn't care much about music quality. it's about movies mostly. dolby atmos for example is just a terrible software eq.
You didn't review the native speakers on the phone.. I've heard good things about the quality and loudness but would like some real world testing and comparisons.
No problems with its loudness and clarity but I don't enjoy spatial audio on it. I think it sounds better on default.
@@aaronloudnwireless Loud and clear enough to annoy everyone on the bus?
@@themooseface sure
I've had the Xperia 1 IV since 16th June. On paper, the specs suggest an audiophile phone BUT... you cannot get reasonably loud volume (emphasis on reasonably) from this phone, streaming or (especially) via the jack. As such, regardless of the codecs / hi-res capability the audio experience is so underwhelming as to be frustrating. Music is rendered as a thin, anaemic facsimile of itself.
obviously due to the absence of a decent headphones amp chip. you can't use big high-impedance headphones with these things. maybe more sensitive headphones would help.
@@kjererrt7804 Clearly, I'm not plugging in Sennheiser HD800S! Rather, my report above is based on using Sony XM4s (shipped with the Xperia as part of deal on pre-orders in the UK) which are a mere 16 ohm plugged in.
The issue is the by-design volume limiting (amp chip and Bluetooth) which is overly risk averse and sabotages the audio experience. I tried the XM4s with my old iPhone and despite the lesser codec the audio experience was far superior.
@@jonthurston8275 google how to increase volume in the engineering menu, google how to modify this phone, maybe root it etc. by default phones/players sold in eu have their volume decreased due to some eu regulations. try koss porta pro headphones. they are very loud even in comparison with 16ohm phones.
No offense but why are you listening to the Sony xm4? They are below average in sound (terrible Imo). So many better options (like sennheiser momentum 3, etc). The tuning is plain wrong, and the eq cant fix the part of frequency that needs fixing. Too much mid bass, subpar resolution, etc.
Sony needs either a 10 band eq or a parametric eq. And it's bass boost is outdated. Everyone knows you center the bass boost closer to 40-50Hz with a gradual rise starting from 90Hz or 100Hz. Sony still doing the 70-80Hz bass boost.
We agree on that. But then he has the airpods max so I think it's more to see if Sony is consistent. Sir on their own helmet they manage to make them "better" with their own Telephone
The main focus here is more on the phone's influence on sound quality rather than the headphones, but I hear you!
"Sony needs either a 10 band eq or a parametric eq"
goddamn android need a system wide EQ period. literally no excuse at this point beyond being anti consumer
As a professional bass player in past, I would recommend going with bass frequencies from 100 Hz like jazz music it is recorded, which will lead to a clearer bass and its notes articulation, and also will provide freedom for other instruments in the song mix. Actually, the human ear isn't able to hear sound up to 100 Hz clearly enough to understand what notes are happening there.
Samsung s20+ 5g all the way for $700 aud .
The Bluetooth output on this Sony is terrible.
My beats headphones are so quiet now compared to my Xperia 1
Even sony z ultra has better sound than a Samsung new phone minus the atmos of course, sony always take the pride of place in the sound update department

The Xperia 1 IV is prone to overheating. I would rather wait for Xperia 1 V
Update from few day are solution

Please compare Son Xperia 1 IV verses iPhone 13 pro max in the audiophile way. Compare the lossless audio of Sony and Apple. Compare the audio jack of Sony and lightning cable of Apple.
Thank you very much. God bless you. Have a good day. Best Regards. Enjoy the sunshine, fresh fruits and vegetables.
you can't recover lost data. sorry it's just marketing plus some equalization.
That's why the ultimate test is the listener's ears.
@@aaronloudnwireless not impressed
@@aaronloudnwireless there is an onkyo phone, it's very thick and made of metal. i guess that is a true audiophile phone. with audiophile grade capacitors and other components inside. but this one, it's just an ordinary phone.
So muddy you sure it's good? Your recording for us to listen on this video is poor?
turn off all eq on your device/headphones
The Sony overall is one of the best phones ever made. Best scream, best speakers, all the bells and whistles..
I'd recommend the Sony over the Samsung any day.
overpriced crap with puny batteries and lots of issues.
Is thi better than say, LG V60?
S22 sounds better and louder i guess
