Sony's Auto mode doesn't use computational photography; instead it sticks to the usual Alpha-inspired image processing style of JPEGs, which is why they were labelled as Alpha phones.
I know it's not something for you, but for those who are seeking for no overworked JPEG processing will certainly appreciate Sony's approach to camera processing, most especially the professional photographers that are so used to using professional cameras for years.
Yeah sure, no night mode and lack of Gcam support is a bummer, but I believe some units already have night mode on the 1 and 5 II, while Gcam support is starting to get better now.
Availability is not a major problem when you shop online. Unless the phones themselves don't support the network bands that you're using in your region, then there should be no worries about availability. There are literally hundreds of official sellers all over the internet. I could even find some units of Xperias being sold in my country despite Sony pulling out of my region from selling their phones.
Support for Sony is as good as many other Androids, if not better. They're even updating their phones really well despite their situation, so that alone deserves a lot of credit.
Anonymous, 31 Dec 2020Kind of comments I could easily find on internet :
- OnePlus users used to say QHD was was... more1. Well, it was true anyways. QHD was actually wasting unnecessary power without offering major benefits over FHD at phone screens below 6.0". It was only this time around when phones are now starting to get bigger that they've started having QHD screens, and even then they're still managing power consumption really well despite the transition.
OnePlus 8 Pro in QHD+ 120Hz mode scores 103h; still higher than the Galaxy Note 20 Ultra's 100h at QHD+ 60Hz, nevermind the FHD+ 120Hz (since it can't do QHD+ 120Hz).
2. Again, not many was really saying that stereo speakers were useless. Most probably those who said they don't use phone speakers are people who would rather use headsets anyway. But hey, at least it happened.
3. To each his own, but an ultra wide camera is a really useful feature especially for a smartphone.
4. It's mostly the haters that do it. Most of the people just really accept whatever is served to them, and they'd only complain if they get affected. It's bullsh**, I know, but this is the hard reality that's happening for years already. Let's just stop being affected by the opinions of people who don't make up the majority of smartphone users.

Some don't even bother to do a research. Then there're the worst of them all as well... the blind fanboys
SONY is light years far-away ahead with 4K displays !
Too bad it's curved 🙄

Lol. And at 90Hz refresh rate. I have 7h and 55min of screen on time and still 27% of battery left.
I can hardly wait for Apple to release 30W or 50W chargers for iphones and then fast charging will be miraculously not bad for batteries anymore. Because is done by Apple, lol.
The same with high refresh rates. When Apple will release a 90HZ or 120Hz iphone all the fanboys will say that this is the best thing ever. Even though now is just a "meah" thing, because iphones doesn't have it.

According to him, iPhone is the best at everything.
Any form of criticism turns him hostile and he goes into defending mode.
He actually ended up justifying Apple being fined 113 million dollar in batterygate scandal as Apple trying to extend the longevity of phones. Lol

The rest of the phone can be perfect, but if the display is not captivating enough to me, then it’s a non-starter.

To start, DM has never tested any phone from Sony, LG and Sharp. How could it lose to other according to you?
Xperia = delta 0,7 (lowest among all phones). Red = 66 , green = 39, blue = 0
Brightness. On oled, the light emission depends on pixel size. It translates to lower brightness possible as you increase resolution without increasing the screen. Wanna do the math?
Xperia = 98,6 cm2 /6.312.960 pixels
Samsung = 108cm2 / 4.608.000 pixels
Iphone = 109.8cm2/ 3.566.952 pixels
You also do not seem to know more brightness is reason burn-in shows sooner on phones than TVs. The higher light emission, the higher amount of energy is lost as heat. This increases chemical reactions that are gonna cause degradation of organic components of oled. Basic chemistry taught at school.
www.newsshooter.com/2019/04/26/sony-venice-wireless-monitoring-with-the-xperia-1/
"The images looked extremely impressive on the Xperia 1 and the latency was also very good. Whatever Sony have been doing the color accuracy of the images being displayed on the Xperia 1 looked almost identical to those being output from the VENICE to an expensive reference monitor."
Your phone (no matter brand or type of screen) shows better colour accuracy at 300 -350 nits compared to 500, 600, 700 etc ...
You can also check websites about photography/videography. Easy to see people interested in Xperia Pro to use it as monitor instead of the low quality (not even HD) screens of professional cameras.
Little secret, people that are responsible for those extremely expensive oled sony monitors used by Sony Pictures gave contributions to these phones. That is why colours are same seen on bravia oled.
Good luck trying the same with samsung that makes red kida orange, turn gray of cement into beige and yellowish whites.
By the way, if you see someone on youtube comparing a new phone against last generation and you notice the old phone has screen with red hues, it is because part of the blues are dead already.

You should be ashamed of endorsing a pathetic 60hz screen in 2020.
Only iPhone 12 pro Max has good battery.. Rest of the models are dead before evening.
So iPhones do have weak battery life in general.
Stop spreading lies about fast charging being bad without any proof.
This isn't Apple which bundles outdated fast charging technology in flagship phone.
