Anonymous, 27 May 2020RIP nikon d6. what a terrible decision releasing $6500 dslr in 2020 with only 20.8mpHaha yep, yet another terrible camera that's insanely overpriced with its only selling point being the autofocus. Except that one can only do 14 fps burst shots.

You could make the argument that at a basic level the code is just numbers, but if we were to go by that even the act of posting this would be a calculation.

I love this argument. A person who has no intention of buying this phone is arguing with people who plan to buy the phone about what specs are most important for the phone they don't want. I don't go to car dealers as a convertible lover and complain that theres a roof on the SUV they are selling.

Ultimate Reviewer, 29 May 2020I am not a Samsung fanboy... I'm much more fond of OnePlus. Anyway, my point still stands the ... moreI have OnePlus 8 Pro and I don't write anything stupid on this page. Why? I will tell you why.
I do like OnePlus 8 Pro as a daily use phone. But I'm so excited about Xperia 1 mark II because it seems very nice flagship with one of the best camera setup. And I'm waiting for it and I'm going to buy it as soon it's available in US. I had Xperia 1 and loved it, but I gave it to my wife because it has low SAR level, which is hard to find in these days. Please watch what you say because you didn't even hold Xperia 1 mark II in your hands and you have no idea if it's good or bad phone.

Ultimate Reviewer, 29 May 2020I am not a Samsung fanboy... I'm much more fond of OnePlus. Anyway, my point still stands the ... moreImagine what it's like to buy a 120hz phone to use at 60hz to save battery and criticize whoever buys 60hz phones. Makes complete sense.
OTOH, 4K is not gimmick for anyone who consumes lot of media or entertainment related. Even for watching you tube videos 4K is perfect. Even for the pictures you take, what's the point of taking 12MP pictures and 4K recording if you're not experience on the display you're using??
And again, if you want refresh rates, just go buy that. But don't say 4K is useless just because it is not useful to you. Don't rub your interest upon others. People who consider this device want the 4K.

It's no longer Sony's problem if your eyes aren't strong enough to see a difference between 2K and 4K when a normally healthy person could do so. But definitely it's not useless as not everyone has weak eyesight.
It's not about not being to discern pixelation to say that such screen resolution is already "enough" for a human eye. In FHD and beyond, this will no longer be a problem (for smartphones, I mean) but how about the image quality being displayed throughout the entire screen?
A 4K screen could be showing extra fine details that would be inexistent on lower res screens, and this is true, as seen from this comparison of this phone to the iPhone 11 Pro: https://youtu.be/aiVWHwENkJw
Check it out at 7:54 to see what I'm pointing out.

I am probably the most professional here in the field of human eye physiology, as I am a doctor of medicine. And I can assure you, human eye with good vision is capable of easily discerning 4K on such a small screen as much as on big TV screen, cause the viewing angle dependable of viewing distance is what matters for discerning screen pixels, not inches of screen.

Anyway, my point still stands the difference between 4k and 1440p on a phone screen is negligible. The difference between 60hz and 120fps is much more noticeable. This is just common sense. Stop letting these big spec numbers warp reality.

There can be defects in total products which no one can escape (even with 6 sigma and even according to emperical rule of Gauss/Normalization curve) But I can only say, Sony has never compromised in build quality till date.

But I'm pretty sure similar tech/feature is introduced by Blackberry long ago and it worked. Probably Sony is using similar to cut off the power to battery while charging the mobile. I don't know how they are doing it yet. Completely or partially, either way that's some cool feature to extend battery life.

A Japanese reviewer had made test about how the HS (Heat suppression) mode in Game enhancer reduce heat in CPU and Battery while plugged in. Even with HS OFF the Mark 2 definitely is more efficient in passive cooling than the previous model

Sepfian, 29 May 2020Sony Xperia 1 or this edition? As in my country always late for newcome product other than ... more100% would go for the mark II. Power/FR, headphone jack, dual front speaker, Night mode, etc. If the price is too much wait for a few months, Sony phone price drop pretty quick
LWI 888, 29 May 2020My friend, I wish I had you in the store with me when I bought 2 successive 4k-screen Xperias ... moreExactly, this phone is actually pretty good besides the huge 4k gimmick it hides besides. I'm just trying to warn people the 4K screen is not worth the hefty price premium. If they still want to go for then that's on them.

- Yes I know what I'm talking about and not throwing any garbage. When higher refresh rate screens first arrived, it was debatable cause human neurons generally need 100-150ms to sense any information. But later it was proved that there are more things involved in it other than neuron response time. It's no garbage you can find related articles.
- Yes, I know what point you are trying to make. And I was talking about exactly that.
- "Professionals"! I don't have to go to "Professionals" if I need to verify. Who are these professionals btw? There were scientists telling us before that you don't need more than 60hz screens. But later they changed their views after further research.
- "Hail Samsung!!!" If I offended you. I and my family have used Samsung phones before and Galaxy Alpha is still my most favorite phone to date, though it had some flaws.

Tho I dont think it avoids the battery charge, dont see how it would be done that way, but probably uses same slow charge protocol as BatteryCare to keep it all cool, and without extra charge heat.
Yup, put the phone on charger/charging dock, or some external Usb Power Box, dongle with PS Dualshock controller, and play all day long without worry.
Nice feat.
