Sindroid, 08 Mar 2020Xperia 1 II.. What a name! no wonder i fell off the Sony phone train. So much models spread ov... moreWell, sound you never heard their Alpha, RX and other Sony Electronics division naming nomenclature does work in the first place... Ex : Alpha 9 II, Xperia 1 II, RX0 II, Xperia 10 II, Alpha 7R IV....

Vineet Reddy, 08 Mar 2020There is a reason that even in TVs or PC Monitors were not pushing 120/144Hz until recent time... moreThat is simply bandwidth insufficiency. Still does not change a thing on 90Hz being utter PR trash talk on Sonys part.
Better no 90Hz interpolation than this, we all know how this thing looks in reality, soap opera effects, artefacts, inputlag, etc.
But it's Sony, nobody is expecting they wont mess something up, right?

Fearghast, 08 Mar 2020That does not even makes sense.There is a reason that even in TVs or PC Monitors were not pushing 120/144Hz until recent times whereas there are many 1440p and 1080p monitors going 120/144Hz since almost a decade.

I seriously don't get why people are so upset about it being 90Hz enabled through software processing instead of 120Hz. That is a 4K 21:9 display. Implementing 120Hz or even 90Hz on that high resolution is extremely taxing on hardware and also effects greatly on battery drain. 4K@90Hz through software processing as is is taxing but through balanced distribution of processing between CPU and GPU it is comparatively less taxing. To be honest getting any kind of 90Hz implementation at that high resolution should be extremely satisfactory. To make it clear, this phone is not catered towards competitive gamers. If you really care for competitive gaming I highly recommend waiting for ROG Phone 3. Xiaomi is going to launch Black Shark 3 but I recommend waiting for ROG Phone 3 as previous model from that series was exceptional package.

Vineet Reddy, 08 Mar 2020It is 4K, I think you missed checking on resolution. That does not even makes sense.

Fearghast, 08 Mar 2020It's gimmick because it's "interpolated" 90Hz.It is 4K, I think you missed checking on resolution.

Ali, 08 Mar 2020Good ,but very big size display, I think display size 5.5 is better It's not big display. Samsung s20+ has bigger and nobody complains
It's just not that wide as others. So it's easier to hold in one hand

Yall just ignorant. Quit complaining about display resolution. 1080p, 2160p, 4k, 10k resolution looks almost the same with naked eyes on a small display. Unless u put 2 phones side by side. So annoying.

Great phone but too long! If the length if under 155mm, i would buy. So sad. Been waiting for sony to come out with an ideal phone for my needs for the last 8 years. Nothing!

Shellyman Infinity, 08 Mar 202090Hz is not a gimmick. It's bring more fluidity into the software experience. It's gimmick because it's "interpolated" 90Hz.
Anonymous, 07 Mar 2020Coz the native refresh rate is 60hz. 90hz is gimmicky software implementation. 90Hz is not a gimmick. It's bring more fluidity into the software experience.

Since company offering 60hz refresh rate(officially) out of the box.

Anonymous, 08 Mar 2020Wrong. Its not a true 10 bit display. Please do your research correctly before posting wrong i... moreWrong. Samsung doesnt make 10 bit color depth screen, uses only lower color gamut 8 bit based screen.
Sony does make 10 bit wider color gamut screen as it uses 8bit+2bit.
Therefore Sonys screen is certainly better in color reproduction and gamut space regard.

90hz is gimmicky software implementation. You do realise that hardware enabling 120 hz on a 120 hz screen requires mere 2 lines if coding.
Its just that easy, and has a serious hit on battery consumption.
On the other hand frame interpolating software for 90 hz equivalent motion blur reduction on a 120 hz screen requires an entire new driver coding (hundreds of lines of coding), and seriously reduces battery consumption for same visual effect.
Im quite sure 4k res with 90 hz software based interpolation is more energy efficient than fHD res at hardware based 120 hz. And requires a lot more RnD invested in it.

Shellyman Infinity, 07 Mar 2020Why did Y'all removed the 90Hz from the specifications? Coz the native refresh rate is 60hz.
90hz is gimmicky software implementation.
