It is better than 1ii almost on all fronts but gets same score as the 1ii 😑 that's gsmarena for you.

I think this is a formidable phone. Sony needs to be more aggressive in terms of marketing and sales/service support. A few polishes here and there and I think it'll be a great phone. Aspect ratio may be a deal-breaker.

any review of sonys phones based on specs and a few days of use is pointless. to my experience and from reading the comments here on this site, sony phones tends to malfunction after a short while, so it requires a long term review. sony is pricing next to apple and samsung but its product quality is closer to the sticker phones you will find on aliexpress. any review reader who is considering buying a sony should take this into account. and for gsm arena: stop publishing short term review of this brand.

Fearghast, 28 Sep 2020So why did Sony put the default app there? Not to be used?
Why would Sony do that? :D
You k... moreBecause duh? It's still there for those who are noob about "true" photography and cinematography. In short, it exists for peeps like you lol.
You're crying because you don't get the same overprocessed look on the Pixels, iPhones, and Galaxies? Well sorry to say, but that's not what Sony is aiming for, and if I were you, I'd be packing my way out here now because I should already be able to understand that this phone is NOT for me, and I should look elsewhere for my needs instead of wasting my precious time talking irrelevant stuff here.
But I know you. You won't do that anyway. Saying those rubberish things make your life better, right? Congrats! You've just proved to me how worthless to have a good conversation with you.
It was nice messing around with you though ☺️.

Any minor software changes can change the outcome between both.

Once again the US gets screwed over with a 3-month release delay--and of course no 5G! Again!

lavialegon, 28 Sep 2020the lack of 4k60 in the native app is not a con because everyone who want to buy this phone is... moreExactly. These "average consumers" are acting like this phone is made specifically for them. They have plenty of other options to choose from. I don't understand their obsession to criticize these Xperia flagships all their life.
It's like this is a contract from their company to promote nonsense hate on this thread for years 😂.

Fantastic phone. I am impressed by the battery life with that refresh rate and I certainly prefer less 'instagrammy' photos and more natural stuff. Shame the bigger flagship missed the mark on US 5G offerings and battery life.

You know "logic".

Why is it that pix taken for Samsung phone reviews are done in nice sun-lit days, while pix for Sony reviews are with over-cast? That alone makes the comparison of pix not objective. I would thing that it's a no brainer than the conditions need to be similar for objective comparisons.

/s...-___-;
Stop feeding into stupidity. Bezels are great as it houses more (and better) facial recognition and front facing stereo speakers.

Nothing New, 28 Sep 2020-best design in 2020 so far
-great battery life
-top notch camera
-pretty good speakers
... moreExactly just what we all need. Others are just being too naive at things. They're literally already giving out every single necessary features here on this phone and still they're looking for faults and mistakes at all cost.
They hate it because "it's not like Samsung and Apple." Simple as that. ☺️

Just think about it, would you buy a sony when all your friends have samsung, iphone, xiaomi or realme phones? No! The price will be a big reason to stop being a sony fan, only if you don't know what you are paying for and if you know then a cinema pro app won't be a problem

Nick Tagataka, 28 Sep 2020What do you even mean by that?? Galaxy Note 20 Ultra runs 120Hz mode perfectly fine at FHD+ re... moreYou sure it's perfect?
I mean, I guess green tint and overheating are no problems at all, so I guess you're right that it's perfect. Lol.
87h endurance rating for 120Hz despite the 5000mAh battery? Sounds good.
Higher brightness? Also higher risk of burn in. No wonder why Samsung phones are notorious for such issue.
OLEDs at 500 nits are already bright outdoors. Not like the display is invisible if it doesn't go 600 nits or something.
Sony understands them and therefore doing extra steps to further prolong the phone's lifespan, unlike others that are intentionally making self-destructing products *cough Note 7*

Those "defenses" keep getting more and more ridiculous by the minute.
I wonder why so my blind fans are using "good enough" so often ... can it be it's not so good or not enough?
+ hear yee hear yee only Samsung does 120Hz and not anyone else ... when it suits you "case" ofc.
