Please do that! You two are easily among the best tech reviewers on TH-cam. The two of you together would do such an amazing video on the Xperia 1 mark V
That textured back and side is one thing i really praise Sony for. All OEMs know that glass and polished metals can be very slippery, yet nobody ever taught about giving them some texture for good grip.
They doing this because this phone are targeted as camera phone, it has dedicated shutter button, that's why they do this, but the bad thing using this texture are sacrifice the premium looks and its not as good as the iphone or samsung design or most phone with glass.
Those nature photos were stunning. I stayed up until midnight ET to watch the Xperia1V presentation and it was worth it. It is good to see the the bettery battery life numbers with the Gen 2 chip. I'm Team Sony all the way enjoying my Xperia 5 IV.
You and Juan are the best. You both capture the excitement that us sony fans have for their products. We are picky people who like the top end features of our phones to be in a different department. The more videos i watch of the V, the more i want to upgrade from my xperia 1 iii
Something of a rare known name actually producing a flagship, the price is still rough though. I like that they are packing in as much as a they can while still moving forward.
The first thing I look for in smartphones is the camera because photography is one of my hobbies. While I am happy to see improvements since my Xperia 1 m1, there are a few things that camera technologies need to step up: 1) Increase the megapixel count from 12mp to at least 20mp. 2) Use analogue bokeh for portrait shots (as featured on iPhone 14 Pros).
@@paulgal Only for those looking to do big prints or display photos on a large 4K display. And yes, the technologies behind the sensors are essential too.
I'm looking forward to from Juan Xperia 1 V vs Xiaomi 13 Ultra as much as I'm looking forward to from TK Oppo Find X6 Pro vs Xperia 1 V. Its a good time to be enjoying high end camera tech this year.
What I would probably say is all three devices are geared in a slightly different way The Xperia is definitely for creators and for an all-around production style work. While the find X6 Pro is more of an all-rounder great photography easy to take pictures and videos and fast processing with that 1-in sensor. Show me 13 Pro and the Ultra have a different philosophy would like as influence into camera processing so although all three devices perform well I wouldn't necessarily feel they compete they're really going in for a different part of the market
Great review, especially as I've just upgraded from my 1ii to this latest, and probably last, greatest Xperia 1 model. The 1 VI with its downgrade to 1080p is a great shame if the aim was to extend battery performance. I've learnt that if you want to get that specific good Sony product, buy it while it's available because once they're gone, they're gone for good!!
HI! Just subscribed and liked, the best Xperia 1V review I found... one thing, I think today the cameras are shooting all 120fps with exception of the selfie one. THANKS and good luck with your channel!
This is my dream phone... NOW lurking for a better price.... Although the Xperia 5 mark 5 will be a legendary one too! 🤔 Tuff choice... Thank you for the review! 💪 🍻 🎊 🇷🇴
Thanks for the plentiful review. The details attract anyone to buy and I own one. Sony always had their vision on the top while they bring something from the house. Just the concern is on the updates limitations. I am big fan of Sony from the time of cybershot and walkman mobiles.
Do you have any gimbal? I want to know if we put this phone on gimbal with stative some of them have additional led light and we will add ND filters they also can eliminate reflections . Can gimbal handle this sony with Nd filter .
Does the camera allow to select if computational / stacking takes place with every photo or is it just on night mode? Kudos to sony to finally allow a on screen shutter button in advanced mode. Does it offer focus peeking?
I'm constantly seeing fps drops in video recording timestamp 9:55 and up, is this from the editing software you used or is the phone actually dropping frames during recording? cause I've seen this in many android phones so I'm wondering if the new sony has that issue as well, thanks Tariq.
Thanks for the video. I was hoping that you could a bit more info about the UI (apps) for daily tasks, such as calendar, reminders, notes, voicemail, call screening( does it have it)? Did/do you use native google apps for this etc..
So nice to watch someone going into a bit of depth and really pointing out how damn good this device is - very much a camera orientated phone compared to the usual suspects. I think yourself and @SomeGadgetGuy are the only TH-camrs who actually go deeper into how these £1000 plus pocket pcs actually perform 👌
Anyone else notice the weird exposure stepping in the outdoor video. Like every half second there’s a small incremental exposure step as it gets darker. It’s not smooth, and it looks kind of bad. Hopefully this is just a day one bug (10:13)
Thank you for your informative review. Is the Weather Widget you have on Xperia 1 IV belong to SONY native Weather App? Also, does Xperia 1 V comes with Weather app and Album app?
Not available for sales directly in the Middle East but you can definitely import it over from sites like Giztop and others when it's available for sale.
The camera is great I am hearing everywhere will you be making a video on productivity and battery life I used my phone for everything I dont use a laptop. I hate the S22 Ultra I have because the battery cant support this phone. I wanted to check out this new sony phone everything so far sounds great but what about the battery life and apps that can applications does this phone come that will get me to buy it? I would really want to know.
Hi all, if anyone knows how to trouble shoot. I need help! So, I have a XQ-DQ44 (Japanese Version) Sony Xperia 1 V. I flashed the US Modems and it got my phone to able to work with data and text in the states. I couldn't find a fix for voice calling/ VoLTE so I decided to flash the whole 62 (US) version on my 44. After flashing the 62, my phone doesn't recognize sim cards nor does mobile radio turn on. I tried to use Sony Companion to fix things, but it says: "Temporary device incompatibility detected." I'm trying to get back to stock 44 rom (from Xperifirm), but when I flash it I get the message: "Your device is corrupted and can't be trusted." So I have to flash back to the 62 to turn the device back on. Is there a fix to get back to stock rom? What can I do? *I did find a workaround to get VoLTE to work, but I need to get back to native stock rom. PLEASE HELP!!!! Thanks...
Thanks for the video. I was happy to see you explain the new Xperia. Would love to give this phone a try. Always a Pixel/Nexus user from the early days but this phone interest me. Not a true photographer like you but would love to break away from the Apples, Samsung, and Pixels that are the main phones for the United States. Do you think the basic point and shoot is good for newbies?
Hoping with your in depth camera review. I'm hoping you will tell us in the video what Mode you used while taking photos and videos. Such as Using Basic Auto and Manual Mode. In Video using Basic Video App, Video Pro, or Cinema pro app
I think Sony should make mid range phones that way they can sell more phones,as well as their flagship phones 👌📱plus the camera isn't quite as good as the pixel in my opinion.
This is where I think the marketing for Android phones need to be in the advertising. Androids are much more specific in comparison to iPhones, 😊 this is a media marking power house with the accessories and sensor size. And the ability to then scale up to sony's cameras as a monitor.
My man! We gotta take these out for a location shoot!

Lets see if new song survive on the sun with video recording
hah, i just came from your video :D
Hoping both of you will show in depth review while telling us your using Basic, Auto and Manual Mode. Same as in Video

Yes! Sony ftw... they live that long
Something of a rare known name actually producing a flagship, the price is still rough though. I like that they are packing in as much as a they can while still moving forward.
You know this is as impressive as it gets when TK throws the "flippin'"
The video capture is so rad TK, you turned this into a mobile production machine!!!
Great showcase TK! Exciting times
Thanks for the great video, I actually just ordered mine since the 1vi isn't coming to the US but I'm definitely excited for this device
Exciting times. Watched this and Juan's video first. Presentation next.
I'll be getting this as soon as its released.
Same here. I can't wait for this phone
Love the Sony 1 V and wondering your vlogging kit especially the external display monitor you used here.
To put a case on this phone is committing crimes against humanity.
Was waiting for your coverage of this TK. It was thanks to you i bought the 1 iv

This maybe 1 if not the only true upgrade possibility for the LG V60
Nice video! I'm testing the phone right now and I'm impressed.
The video quality is nuts.

seriously? they do not put LED notification anymore?

Can the camera shoot in native 48 mp or only bin down to 12mp
🙌👍🎉This is my next phone 📞
Hi 😊👋
Looks good. I have been holding with my Mark II. For me, this might be worthy of the upgrade.
Same here. Had the mark Ii for three years now. This looks like a true hardware and features upgrade 😮. I will definitely be upgrading to the mark V
Same here coming from the mark 2 also
Same here. Preordering this one!
The XPERIA 1 mark V looks so good 😊. Sony is really starting to hone their phone formula
With this price i want 5 years of updates

So is it possible now to turn Endurance mode on and off with a simple on screen switch?
Excellent review, Does this phone have North American 5G bands this year? Thanks
Thank you yes it does support sub 6 5G networks in the US
But no mmWave support.
Can it be used for hdmi in via type c with laptop, xbox, ps ?
Yes providing you have the correct cable.
@@machtschnell7452 thanks

thanks for your review. one correction: no quad DAC
A photography/video comparison would be great! This phone looks like checking all the boxes!
How long will they support the phone tho

For the global market only for now. Patience, Grasshopper.

I have Quad DAC on my V60 and I can't go back. The Experia is on my list now.
Great to hear! Quad DACs offer a much better sound quality than standard ones, so it's definitely worth the upgrade.
I hope the UI interface for the cameras trickles to the other Xperias
The best 👌

Sadly no e-sim

2:21 does the V have a Quad DAC?
A multi purpose external recorder?! I guess bot quite as an Atomos, but it should be fine for basic projects.
I think the goal for Sony is to make this device as much of a multi-purpose device as they can and every year we get more

do they finally let you use the video pro etc. apps without always creating a whole "project"?
