Anonymous, 30 May 2020It has the Dynamic Vibration System. Haters dictionary *Gimmick = something brought to... more"The Xperia 1 II has that Dynamic vibration system feature that's meant to enhance the perception of bass by actuating the vibration motor in tune with the sound output. Much like on previous instances, we didn't feel like it added much to the experience - you just don't experience sound with your fingertips. If anything, it's more irritating than pleasant."

-GSMarena.

According to your logic, Gsmarena must be a hater too right?

      Nick Tagataka, 30 May 2020"they do 8bit + FRC to give you the perception of 10bit" Prove it.if they actually claimed that their phones have true 10 bit colour dept, then proving is justifiable because our smartphone processor haven't achieved that processing power yet. but this is common sense. screen this small doesn't need a true 10 bit colour reproduction. because you can't actually percieve the colour gradiation in such a small display. so going for a FRC display makes much more sense and it doesn't strain your cpu. besides its very expensive technology too. if they used actual 10 bit display panels then the phone price will sky rocket to above 2000$.

                My One Plus 8 Pro cost £899 and I suspect the Xperia 1 ii will cost £949 0r £999 in the UK so not the alleged $300/300 euro gap in the UK. Same configuration in terms of memory, if not RAM.

                    Additionally, I wasn't *attacking* GSMA. I was asking for a more professional review.

                    Many useful features were omitted here and that's a shame.

                        fast charging degradation isn't a myth and no, its not completely debunked. passing high current through lithium battery causes heat and heat degrades the battery life over time. 40w fast charging might look impressive in paper but that won't help your battery to survive more than 1 and half years

                            I really wanted to love this, but given the price I'm not quite sold.

                            Battery life not likely to be great.

                            Love the idea of combining phone and camera technologies, but in practice this looks overly complex. I don't want to have to consider which app to open to get the best shot for any given situation really. And I'm not going to bother with post processing camera photos. I want the best possible out of the camera shots on demand. I do like the look of the autofocus capabilities though. At this price and given what they are aiming to achieve I would expect this to be a class leading camera and it doesn't seem like it is.

                            I'm not convinced that most people want phones this big in the real world and 4k screen is in my opinion an unnecessary drain on battery life.

                            I think I'm holding out for the pixel 5, in the hope that they finally fix their battery life issues. failing that I'm buying the LG G8. Shame, I like what they tried to achieve and it seems like they almost got there!

                                    The best example of hardware limitation is Samsungs 8k video record - while this is an impressive feat in itself, the sheer data it's computing limits the auto focus quite badly - almost so you can't use the 30MP frame as an image.
