Xperia 1 VI: Best Android Flagship But...

Sony Xperia 1 Mark 6 is the latest Sony flagship phone that has a few key differences from other flagships. For one it claims to have a 2-day battery life, and for two it has a variable zoom lens that can be used as a Macro telephoto lens too. In This video, I put the Xperia 1 VI to test and tested everything from camera to battery, video, images, thermals, and gaming. I used both manual and auto mode for shooting videos and pictures.

I agree with you whole heartedly when you say '''I am happy that phones like Xperia still exists".😊🙏

I love Sony Xperia, love from Malaysia the loyal Xperia user...

You are UNIQUE!

There isn't any reviewer other than you that have objectivity like you.

I've been looking for a great macro phone for a while. I love Sony stuff, and i was happy to see that they focused so much on the quality of this aspect. They seem to have prioritized the things in the camera the way that I prioritize them. I have one on the way. I'm excited.

the only unique phone that managed not to copy anyone but everyone to copy sony. Now all companies want sony cameras not only the lens

One of the few different phones, in a boring world of clones.

Great review mate very informative for someone who wants to buy the phone.... came from your reddit post btw

Great review! Mark VI video app hasn't been completed, SONY said there will be a major update to the app soon .

I’m glad Sony fixed overheating problem in heavy camera usage. I had terrible Xperian (wink wink) with my old Z3 which was overheating badly in photography mode.

We are so back. Congrats Sony. See you soon Xperia!

Unavailabilty in the US is unfortunate. Not sure why our carriers and Sony can't cooperate for the benefit of the consumer.

i got to admit now, this phone's battery upgrade far outweighs the screen downgrade, it seems that it is not even a downgrade at all. It is improvement for battery life. Also it's a killer phone

I want a natural colour and eye pleasing exposure photo...editing is preferable to do later.

Hi! I'm still waiting for my Xperia 1 VI to use and test it. The deadline was June 12, but I was informed that the deadline was postponed, wait for further notification. I'm starting to get impatient because I feel like the new Xperia is quite capable and as I've seen in the videos, it still has a real lifelike camera and I hope that the promised video Pro app will come to the Xperia in the fall and other updates! I live in Estonia! Thank you for the video!

For exemple, Samsung S24, S25 it s a copy of Sony XZ Premium as design, square corners, wich it a ''new'' fashion today ....

Second video i watch from you. Subscribing since you have such quality content and unique perspective.

Video promode will be available with software update later

That battery life is great especially a full 2nd day with only 30% battery. I should just own this phone already. Might as well last me 3 full days.
