The details are way better than a 12mp camera. Even if you don't like the software processing of the picture, there's Gcam, which can significantly improve the night pictures.
No OIS on telephoto? :-(
Android.Master, 18 Aug 2020Wow, you want us to take your anecdotal evidence as proof that professionals prefer smartphone... moreWell,said mate...I agree on Mi 10 Ultra,even Pro is fantastic device,currently goes for less than 700 euros.You've been optimistic about Sammy and Apple,2 grand you say?Latter would ask $200,surely,for that Mi's 120W charger,just the head,plus $60-70 for the USB cable...
For the 2 years on Sony and Samsung have paraded ever increasing pixel count for the quad bayer sensors, but the pixel size has remained 0.8 micron, i.e. the color filter cell has remained 1.6 micron. It's as if the technology could not miniaturize the color filter down to 0.8 micron, so they had to resort to quad Bayer gimmickry to get by. Now comes a "true Bayer" 48MP sensor by Omnivision, and lo and behold, the pixel/color filter cell is 1.2 micron, which is the typical size before all this pixel-binning nonsense started.

Your boss is probably the only guy using the device.
Sony barely managed 400k units out of the 700k phones in Q1 2020.
Mi 10 ultra simply ahead in every department and available at an affordable price.
You clearly hate Mi and other Chinese brands.
Just admit that you don't like Mi.
If Samsung and Apple launched a phone with similar specs, they'd be charging 2000$ and you won't be complaining there.
Someguy20, 11 Aug 2020My guess would be £800 in englandYou miss the point, for European Market most development countries you have to pay extra 200 Eur for customs. Immediately makes you wonder 900 Eur on line payment you never 100% sure that you will receive it at home.
Not to mention no local store for warranty issues.
Anonymous, 18 Aug 2020It won't be released globally, unfortunately. You can only get it by buying it from China.Yes, but then I wouldn't say that poses a problem. You'd argue that China is the hub for mobiles nowadays, and getting it shipped from there will make no difference to its functionality anywhere around the world. The downside is the lack of the 4G B20 frequency band which is a dealbreak for me.
Initially the price was 670 euro but now its price has been changed to 999 usd here.
What nonsense is this?

Errr... wrong. I worked in a photography company and I always see my boss use his Xperia 1 ii more than his A9.
"Xperia 1 II being Marketed towards professional photography was just a marketing gimmick that failed."
Lol, just straightaway admit that you don't like Sony. No need for such fuss.

Auto is what most people prefer.

The pixel clicked as good images in Auto mode as Xperia 1 II after all that time consuming manual tweaking. These tests were done by several YouTube reviewers.
