Ali Bashir, 25 Jun 2020No wonder Apple is dominating the market in Japan. I'd say 90% of the phones I see on the train or people using on the street are iPhones. Of course iPhones can be purchased off contract.
What is Sony thinking? This is such a dumb move.

I'm not sure about buying it though because it's only available through contracts and the contracts are a joke. 3,000 yen a month or a number and 1GB of data if I remember correctly. They also force you into either 24 or 36 payments so you can't just buy it out right and cancel.
I guess I'll get an Asus or a ROG III. At least those are contract free. Huawei could be an option too.

I have the Xperia 1ii about 2 days now and i am really impressed what this beast have to offer i never thourth that it was so good camera pro and cinema pro are very good to have when taking photos and video at nigthtime . Batterylife is also very good and the clean stock ui is a joy to use just sad that the album and movie creator apps are gone but google photo is doing a good job but i hope that sony brings back the album app other then that the Xperia 1ii is among the best allrounder you can find on the marked rigth now it is expensive but at the same time is worth it .

It looks quite good. At 90hz smoothing an hour more than xp 1, at 60hz two hr more...
Altho, bare in mind, not same test parameter as here.

Sadly this phone is only available with 128GB 8GB RAM here in Japan. It's not even cheaper here. For some reason the price is ï¿¥130,000 or about 1,200 usd.

Guido, 25 Jun 2020I'm still waiting for a full battery life test. Any indication on when that'll happen?You can read some reddit user experience on battery. One user got around 7 1/2 hours SOT without AOD. Another user with heavy usage got around 6 hours SOT. These numbers are before any major updates.

If it's a ff, a crop sensor, a 35mm or whatever. They use it to compare to the aparture of other phones. A lot of people here understand this since this phone is targeting those advanced to pro photographers as sony is or is one of the leading maker of cameras as of today.

This just goes to show it depends on individual preferences. Going either way it's going to lose customers.
