Anonymous, 29 Feb 2020Not even close, S20 ultra already is better than this while Huawei p40 pro will destroy this. I think the gsmarena review of the s20 ultra begs to differ . Its gimmicky

hamtarox, 29 Feb 2020who make the sensor? huawei? sony?So what sensur is made by Sony?
Doesnt change the fact that the Ultrawide on the Huawei is bigger than the Ultrawide on Sony and also bigger than Main sensor on Xperia 1 II
Last year it would be great, now its just like non ultra version of flagship. Its great but not awesome. Still time before release, maybe will something change.
It's looking to be a great device! Return of the headphone jack (DSEE ultimate upsaling of mp3 to near lossless audio), front facing stereo, no notch/ cut-out. But most importantly the camera has largely improved, I believe same sensor size as S20U 9 in 1 binning for 108MP (at this point a gimmick). Zeiss branding, best autofocus in the market & alpha technology. Loving it so far! Plus the 4K HDR BT2020 coverage, no words suffice- as no other manufacturer offers that.

Flgshp2020, 29 Feb 2020Why ditch the dram? Sony won't be able to do 960fps @1080p. No more bragging rights. While t... mores20 can only do 720p slowmo for some reason which leads me to believe that they don't have dram either but are instead utilizing cpu for it. We shall see
Very long smartphone like sharpening stone..
Goddamn that form factor. So sleek and thin. Can't believe it is only 0.2mm thicker than my Xperia XZ1 too. Definitely a upgrade from XZ1, front dual speaker is back with jack too. Fingerprint scanner on the side is really fast and nice to use on XZ1 so expect this one will too
Flgshp2020, 29 Feb 2020Lol it won't get past Oppo or Xiaomi, forget getting past Samsung.
No wonder they are losing ... moreSales are just numbers.
In overall assessment, this phone is ahead of the Galaxy S20+ for the same price point, and there are a lot of reasons for it.
Anyone who knows Sony phones will tell you how awesome of an experience it is to use Xperias, but since your pride with Samsung is dominating, you definitely wouldn't listen at all, so I guess there's no point arguing with such a fanboy like you :))
Hroy, 29 Feb 2020Very handsome and macho design. I will buy itYup, it looks superb.
Add to that a 3.5 mm jack, and no nonsense hole or notch on screen...
Its a win.

This phone offers loads of new cam, video and audio feats no other competitor offers.
So Please stop being so dogmatically exclusive.

Sony won't be able to do 960fps @1080p. No more bragging rights.
While t... moreBragging rights is this cam setup has all the bells and whistles of a Sonys DSLR like alpha mark II mirorrless camera. Which is way above just adding higher res or fps to cameras, as the competition offers right now...
Even if they didnt keep 960fps slo mo, which may not be the case at all, as they had it last 3 gens so just stopped promoting it as a new feature, same as 3D creator...
... this cam setup with 20 AF/AE, 70% sensor AF area, 2K 120 fps, and 60 fps 4K 10 bit HDR video has all the bragging rights it needs
They just may be not the same bragging rights as some of the competitors...
And IMO, this is the mobile cam setup win of 2020.

Everything were great until I read the price tag. Sony, this is 2020, stop thinking you are a direct competitor to Apple and Samsung.
