Ugh for a moment I thought that was a strand of hair on my screen at around 2:01 and I was trying to swipe it off like crazy🤦‍♂️

Just got the 1 VI today to replace my 1V. I'd say it's one of my best purchases ever. It just brings whatever I need to the table, which 1 V lacks. Plus, Macro mode is amazing, and I believe it's one of the only two phones nowadays that are capable of this close-up camera, along with Pura 70 Ultra.

There is no better way to describe the Xperia devices. Great video!!!

Would LOVE to see an S24 Ultra vs Xperia 1 VI comparison, especially a raw vs raw comparison for them.

Waiting for you to explore this phone more

Great video! For some reason, HDR is not available in bokeh mode. Also a heads up for the comparison with the S24 Ultra, when shooting video make sure to select "Wide" dynamic range to enable HDR, otherwise it'll be disabled by default, and "high quality" stabilisation which enables OIS+EIS hybrid mode, otherwise it's just EIS.

Great that you compared it with a pro camera. I went from the 1iii and are more than pleased with this 1Vi. Its just better in most ways. Honestly its about screen, size, weight and how easy it is to handle. Resently i filmed a footbal match and used all the lenses. I was amazed when it still was tracking at a far distance. Its not cheap but im pleased.

I wish I could see the camera comparison between Xperia 1v and s24 ultra❤ love your videos

[donelfabrigar]

This is a good way of comparison since this is a camera phone vs pro camera..Good job BTW..

[rickytechreviews]

Thanks for the comparison, watching from East Africa

Great phone, but it does have soo many setting to get it right as this man describes.The difference in the pictures are simply the focal lengths, which is a problem with most iPhones.

It would be interesting to see Sony expose the sensors and hardware to GCam, which could help massively with JPEG shooting as it does with other phones. Transformed my Edge 30 Ultra

You make a good point about phones losing quality when zooming. Might be a smart idea to get a "bad" superzoom for your camera "to level the playing field". There's the Tamron 18-300 and Sony has 18-200. Both with f3, 5 to f6, 3.

Wouldnt you rather use the telelens of the xperia for the natural bokeh? I got the 5ii and the natural bokeh of the zoom lens is really great.

[lovemademan]

Can you do a video bokeh front and rear cam comparison for Xperia? Thank you!

It’s a great news videographers tool that can stream RTMP right out of the box. Perfect that I can connect my Sony a7R5 to it when I need even longer telephoto reach or XLR audio connectivity. It’s using USB-C so a very easy and secure connection. Far better than small HDMI-ports. Sony Xperia 1 iv is the best news gathering phone ever!

Downloading this to watch it when the storm comes 🙏😭

im happy with my Xperia 1vi
All lenses can recorded 4k 120 fps
This is something you don't find in Apple or Samsung phones Even Chinese phones
Also the speakers impressed me
They are the best speakers I have ever heard in a phone it's Reminds me of htc and rezar and asus phones speakers But the Xperia 1vi speakers Better in terms of sound customization and better in terms of clarity than any other phone
It is also difficult to find a flagship phone now with 3.5 jack and sd card slot
Also the battery life of this phone is the best this year and is only rivaled by the Nubia Red Magic 9 pro If we compare the battery size between the two, we will find The Sony phone crushed red magic with its battery performance

My old Huawei p40 pro was pitted against a £3000 dslr and guess what won.. Also, Thomas Heaton a professional photographer on YouTube did a review on the Huawei p40 pro, camera only. The A3 print he made at the end of his review blew his mind that a camera on a phone could take such an amazing picture 👍👍 I'm still using the P40 as my daily phone..

if only the macro lens had the same sensor as the main sensor.
