#Sony #XPERIA1iv #Playstation - วิทยาศาสตร์และเทคโนโลยี
I was totally not expecting that zoom. Wow, I was expecting more software additions like you outlined but this is a nice hardware addition. Thanks for the video Juan.
I know He is Awesome!
The thing I just love the most is the soul Sony can capture! Others simply fail at that.
Agreed 💯
This is the Sony Xperia 1 IV video I've been waiting for. Great overview as always, Juan!
Glad that Sony is keeping the features I love, considering LG has left the phone market. I'm also hoping this means a price drop on Xperia 1 III. The one mildly annoying thing is knowing about the Thermal Issues as I drive for a living, so phone is on the window sort of on a holder while I do deliveries and can cause some running heat.
Same here... I love in a warm sunny climate, and use GPS to go anywhere... Would love if pass through charging works for GPS, and automatically...
Yeah, kinda hope phones have more low thermal, focused mode where everything is put down other than the one on the screen.
GPS is always a thermal and battery hog, but I hope at least the HS power control make it not as hot as charging while using GPS.
You're not going to be pushing the SOC to any great degree while driving. I wouldn't avoid the Sony based on that use case.
I dont think GPS usage will heat up the phone by a lot compared to camera / gaming. I would suggest u to go for it.
Remember that this is a pre-production unit, things can change till September
I love Juan review. So much packed with detail that we sometimes ignored or uneducated with. Not like others that make video as main purpose is to gain more views in sublime way of editing.
Remember, Sony has experience in: display, audio and camera sensor production, they know what they are doing.
Glad to see the Xperia getting some love. I have the 1II. Maybe a bit old now, but still serving me well...
Me too. That's the Sony I kept. 865 is a TANK.
That audio editing software.. is a killer.
Mark 4 is turning into a workstation-in-a-pocket!
Xperia is indeed a doorway to all Sony had in their disposal.
GSMArena already posted their full review of this phone. 100 hours of battery endurance rating is impressive considering the new chipset and only 500mAh increase from the Mk3 Xperia 1. Definitely in my wish list.
Isn’t it a pre production unit?
@@TimotheousMaximus that's the point - if it's THIS good in preprod, it's gonna be even better in the future.
the 10 IV got 163 which is nuts. just sucks that it maybe pricy in the us
@@midnitestate I read it. Definitely impressive, but I don't think it's a worthy one year upgrade over the 10 Mk3.
Excellent review!
You had alot of info many others failed too add/mention.
This will be my next phone for sure, thank you!
One of your best hands-ons yet, man this phone sure looks like a media production beast !
Imagine finding one of these second hand next year... 🤩
I really like this review, you are the only one, to detail all the goodies, so much information ignored in other channels. Thanks!
An excellent and very complete look at the prototype of the Xperia 1IV. Thank you, Juan.
Loved this review! Your opinion and insight is really appreciated. I'm looking forward to a more detailed review! Great work.
As a hr professional I use my hotspot alot and being able to keep it plugged in and not beat the crap out of the battery is a hell of a plus for me.. well done sony
surfing through the TH-cam reviews I find this as the most honest and rare review congratulations man 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
Really liking this new model. Won't be upgrading from my 1III of course, but this seems like a nice step forward and already looking forward to what Sony comes up with next!
I think Sony is getting closer and closer every year to blurring the lines between their Alpha cameras (the point and shoots anyway) and their Xperia phones. I genuinely believe that in a generation or two (maybe mark V or mark IV) Sony is going to have one hell of a camera system on their phones.
Thanks for the review, Juan.
Awesome !
I really like your reviews, especially compared to other Americans. You concentrate on what really matters in a phone and especially when in comes to Sony.
Keep up the good work fella 👍🏻👍🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻
Great info! I can already hear the complaints from other “reviewers”.
Thanks, always, for the honesty!
Love what they did here. Incremental updates where needed (brighter screen, battery, selfie cam, 512GB standard), and some cool improvements (variable optical zoom on the telephoto, VideoPro added, new Music pro). People will whine about TOO FEW MEGAPIXELS! Lol, but I'm all for rocking the 12MP and having *super* fast continuous shooting frame rates and write speeds, and don't overlook that lower MP count allows for much larger pixels on the sensor, and the associated low light advantages that come with it. And they kept all the great stuff (3.5mm, expandable memory, physical dualSIM, no damn notch, etc.). So overall a great device, *but* not quite sure it's worth an upgrade from my Xperia 1 III at $1,600 plus no high speed charger in box.
Wonderful first look JB! Thank you for always having details. Much appreciated. An intelligent review is fast becoming an endangered species. I would love to hear your opinion on image quality between the Pro I and the 1 IV.....Sounds like a head to head review!
I hope I can! I really don't like digging deep into camera tech until it's a retail unit. That said, early impressions, the Pro-I is definitely better IQ, especially in darker conditions, but the 1iv is just so darn speedy...
The 120fps shooting, sun viewable screen and 5K mAh and actually, 512 gb now... That's actually a detail most people gawking at the 1600 tag gonna miss.
I still think Sony would better placed putting out a 5mk4 for us normies to use, but these feature set on the 1mk4 is just great to see.
Also. Mr mobile noted the low light photos actually, despite the same sensor and lenses are a tad better than he expected.
If anything goes by, the Mk4 Xperia 5 will be launched sometime around Q3 as they did before with the Mk1 and Mk2 Xperia 5.
@@farishanafiah8461 ah yeah, I forgot, hopefully that one still tamper the spec and goes for under 1100.
@@MuhammadKharismawan I definitely hope so since the Xperia 5 always tend to cost somewhere between $300 to $500 less than the Xperia 1 while packing the same chipset and camera hardware.
the xperia pro-i was out last year and meets your needs
They better released the 5 mark IV at $1000 fhd 120hz ltpo oled with the same camera setup
Excited to get my hands on it 💪
You're gonna dig it.
Excellent video, very objective and sarcastic as per usual. Greatly appreciated!
If I didn't already have the Xperia 5ii, I would certainly be getting this! Safe to say, Sony still has it in the smartphone market!
you are Honest and excellent in your explanation bro
you are Always talk about Xperia phones and give them what they deserve
These phones are amazing
One of the best and accurate, in my opinion, "review" of an these 1s
This is the video I've been waiting for since Sony announced the release date 😂. Love Juan
Finally a complete view of this phone! My biggest concern is this phone overheating. But I think if you play videogames in a very cold environment, temperatures will never be an issue.
I'm glad to see Sony keeps making actual "pro" phones for people who know what they want 👌🏻
I'm currently on my third Sony phone, an Xperia 1 III. As someone who is photo savvy (I rely on my Canon DSLR for my day job), and is also an aspiring musician and lover of listening to music via wired headphones/speakers, I absolutely love what Sony is doing with these phones. I also appreciate how well these age, my last Xperia XZ2 Premium was almost 3 years old before being replaced and still works about as well now as it did new.
Ferreals. Sony's are for DOING things.
I love I can now use it for external display for my camera or even my Nintendo switch (which i haven't try it yet)
Great video mate. Unlike other reviewers you don't review it like it's the finished product. Looking forward to seeing it when it's not the prototype x
LOL I can't when it's legit not finished...
@@SomeGadgetGuy haha some still try though 😹
Why is Juan having such low no of subscribers; when this Man deserves a LOT MORE..
Juan - Buddy, Help me understand - how is Sony addressing the OverHeating issue; while recording the Videos?
how is Sony handling the Updates Cycle?
I am pretty sure the reason people are "disappointed" by the xperia iV is simply because of how good the previous phones were.
Sony phones already had a lot of features, there's only so much Sony can do now, as it's difficult to further "complete" an already complete package.
I am just thankful they are sticking to the features they already have, and not cutting "legacy" features.
That said, I am excited for a new mid tier Xperia 10 iV!
What about it costing 1600.
Loved it tx
Yet another banger from the KING itself. Weldon, Sony for blessing us with this awesome phone
Really good set of information compared to the few I watched prior. None of them mentioned the music feature and that's just one of several examples, but also fair, since you couldn't demo it yet.
2:18 - Do you brew beer, Juan? That song you always choose is the theme song to the Homebrew Happy Hour podcast from the Keg Connection folks.
LOL I don't, but they must have EXCELLENT taste in music 😀
9:17 Small detail, but I love that! The US usually gets shafted when it comes to bigger internal storage options on Android. So its nice that this is officially here for US versions so unlike the mk.iii, US customers don't have to sacrifice other features like Wifi calling or 5G just to get the international versions to get 512 GB.
Yeah... That felt good...
In fact, in Europe we only get 256gb......but they give us a Ice White version :(
Hello Juan! Im considering getting either the Pro-i or the 1IV at the moment. Assuming them to be comparable in price, which do u think is a better buy if I mainly use it for stills and relatively long workdays?
Hey Juan, great video. On the photography side of things, I wish we can have, let's say, a dedicated 50mm lens on the Mark V. The leap from 24mm to 85mm feels a bit much, in my humble opinion. There has to be a middle ground focal length to fill in the blanks, so to speak. What if I don't want to shoot wide, but don't want to zoom in, either, and I want a perspective close to what my eyes saw? And no, I don't want to settle for digital zoom and sacrifice image quality in the process. Just my humble thoughts.
Don't mind the megapickles, but I do wish they'd made the sensor a wee bit bigger (physically) for more light gathering. That said, those are still pretty big pixels compared to most flagship 50 MPs... and hardly anyone else does 4k120 tele, so that's still a big, big plus!
Can't wait to see how the cameras do with final software build.
Juan, awesome review, loving your style. I've been waiting for the XPERIA 1 IV but I still cant decide between that and the S22 Ultra. If it wasn't for the fact us in the UK we get palmed off with the Exynos 2200 I think I'd go Samsung. But the XPERIA 1 IV looks so slick and refined.
If Samsung still made the 1tb version or put the Micro SD storage in then it's a Win. Until Samsung make a real Note again......
allrounder beast!
did sony finally do shutter on voice in iv?? i have only one hand and i neeed that function
it was over 5 years ago when I first saw periscope zoom tech in the Asus zenfone zoom. Seemed like a no brainer that it would be the future of telephoto just like how LG G5 ushered in the era of wide angle cameras on phones. It's kind of strange the periscope zoom today isn't more widespread, nice to see Sony is going with it.
Hell yeah I still have that Zen Zoom! That lens was miserable, but it was a step in the right direction!
Juan,
Thank you for the realness of your review. I almost bought the Pro i. How does this compare.
The Sony 1 series has been one of my favourite phones for the past few years. It checks all the boxes for me, and I’m loving the camera shutter button on the side. I’ve just started playing with my DSLR again, so tinkering with the 1’s camera features would be a fun experience for me.
Unfortunately, Sony phones aren’t sold in Canada, and importing one is way too expensive for me. 🥺
Run the S10 into the ground. 👍
@@SomeGadgetGuy
But the Sony is soo nice…😍
Seriously though, I don’t need to upgrade often. I’m not a power user, nor do I need the latest and greatest year after year. Prior to getting my S10 in May 2019 I was still using the iPhone 4S I bought new in 2011. 😁
I was forced to upgrade when most of the apps I used no longer ran on iOS 9 (iOS 10 wasn’t supported on the 4S). And 64GB wasn’t working for me anymore - I had to manage my storage several times a week.
I can probably get quite a few years out of my S10. (I say as I continue staring at the Sony)
Sony is available in canada. What are you talking about.
Thank you, sir! I have been waiting for this review from you. I was only choosing between the mark III and mark IV to upgrade my LG V50. I am definitely buying this once this is released in the Philippines.
Edit:y LG V50 is still holding up in the camera department. Still snappy with games too. It's just that I've already cracked the screen in the middle and I can't appreciate the beautiful images anymore.
Aww that V50 had a good run.
@@SomeGadgetGuy I have a V50 too, and the cameras still rooock!
That "shuld of" meme is spot on 😂
I didn't think I'd want this phone, but _my god_ do I want this phone...
Sony can sneak up on you like that.
Haha me to. Seen several previews now to have decided :)
17:06 - You are absolutely right and I'm glad you're completely transparent about this. This phone now seems to be targeted to an even smaller niche of consumers which I don't think I fall under. Looking forward to seeing what their 5 mark iv and 10 mark iv look like (and hoping they have proper US band compatibility)
I rarely have a problem with higher prices on consumer electronics, I think it just requires a more careful consideration of WHO might be the right fit for a specific gadget. When this is legit capable of things that no Samsung or iPhone can achieve, and comes with one of the highest tiers of storage WHILE still supporting memory cards and headphones, it's the price we pay for a PRO pro phone.
@@SomeGadgetGuy yeah
Sometimes all we need is a specific checklist and if we have to pay to get it we will. If the phone does what we need it to do flawlessly then every dollar will be justified.
STILL trying to find a reason to move from my LG V60 and it still feels like other companies are playing catch up. Pro Video Mode, Studio Mics, 10X zoom WHILE recording, 8K recording, 5000 MaH, Zoom Audio, ASMR, Concert Recording mode, man I can keep going.
What phone is worth the jump?
I'm in the same scenario. I'm still enjoying my V60.
Nice review. Sony keeps at least for my point of view the necessary hardware. So which one to pick 5 III, 1 IV, or pro 1? What do you think for a video/photography purpose? Thanks
What a beauty, screen is still 4k but with high refresh rate wow. It's claim 3yrs of battery life, that's true based on my experience with my xz premium, it took 4yrs to bloat the battery and just 3 days ago I replaced the battery by myself. Sony forever ♥
A very sophisticated device.
It's great to see what they're doing. I've learned that as much as I like the hardware I never use the specialized or should I say the more pro features. I'm looking forward to someone doing an _almost_ tutorial on this device.
Oh this is beautiful
Masterpiece from Sony!!!
appriciate the hi-ress sound test
Exceptionnal review, so much so it gets pointless to mention it 🏆
I still don't mind people telling me 😊
Can it power high impedance headphones? Any dedicated hardware DAC and AMP?
It's funny the way all the tech tubers uploaded this video at the same time
i wonder if i should wait for black friday to grab a mark4 or just preorder it now and get the earphones which i dont really need. I guess the pre-order bundle counts as a "black friday" like discount.
Those cameras are fire
I would love to see you contrast this with the Xperia I -- what use cases for what camera/phone?
I was watching TechOdyssey's video on the Xperia 1 IV, and it seems to have a very bad overheating problem that many first hand reviewers never really talked about in depth. Could you test the overheating more throughly especially when shooting 4K 120?
I love my Xperia 1 but I have troubles with overexposed sky's with darker foreground any advise?
I know it's a long shot... But what do you think of xperia 1 IV vs pro I? Was leaning towards pro I considering the discounts right now.
how does photos/videos from 1 IV compare to 5 III ? does is still has the same sensors? Can you try? I remember you did review on 5 III also.
This will be on my top wish list, camera setup is very good
That would be great if a a compagny makes a 2022 phone like the old Samsung Galaxy K Zoom with only one sensor and 10x optical zoom
How does the 1 IV feel in the hand? Is it easy to use with one hand?
This phone looks fantastic. Do we know if the Music pro app at 14:54 would be available on other Sony phones like the 1 Mk III?
I don't yet. Sony is a little inconsistent in which apps make the jump to older phones. Often I'd lean towards "probably not", but it is an editing app, and not something camera dependent. I'll move my prediction to an "uncertain maybe".
@@SomeGadgetGuy i appreciate your insight on this. Still waiting to see what phones come out this year as I'm close to needing an upgrade that I wont have to change for another potential 4 years
im not sure, i mean iphone have extrem good stabilization + ProRes in 4k and that give extrem much data from the sensor. It have a good night mode in photo... well the tele is the only thing but how much do you really need a tele ? i use more the nightmode
Does it have 5 pole 3,5mmm jack connector like the older xperias? i really liked doing binaural recordings.
Sadly no
For photograph, they need a real Xeon flash ,variable F stop , filter fitting lens, yes a bigger useable sensor which can go along with a good range zoom 70-180mm !
I am happy with my Xperia One II and I am thinking to buy the One IV. My only concern is if I can use live wallpapers and do they work in landscape mode?
That slow mo glasses... Professional goofball
Bro, my old box has a viewing card. How do I switch to this box? Does it have a card slot?
Just got the US veriant of this phone and it's pure awesomeness :D
It's a CHAMP.
Juan, have any of your opinions changed after handling the retail version? Have firmware updates helped with heat management?
I'm finally getting back up to speed on the 1iv, and I think it's going to keep my sim card into next year. I'll have more to say soon.
what's your usual audio processing app in phone juan?
does it have Truncate Silence function like the one in audacity?
I use audio evolution, but it doesn't have one auto silence tool like audacity (at least i don't think it does). I just ripple cut. Mostly use it for podcasts though, so it hasn't been TOO bad compared to desktop editing.
@@SomeGadgetGuy i see, i tend to like to remove silent parts especially if the podcast is over 1 hour, but i guess for shorter podcast it's enough
This seems like a nice upgrade from my 5ii
Nice one, keep it up! We would love to feature your music on our blog
they took the pro I, cause i saw the monitor compatibility and thank sony for that and i also want the wireless charging capability as well and merge all the mark line ups.... cant wait to see the announcement
My favorite smartphone manufacturer I can never afford. The only Xperia I was able to get is Xperia ST21i back in 2012. I just love their design when it comes to smartphones. Classy without flashy gimmicks and I swear one of the only if not the only manufacturer who still implements LED notification.
If they'd just get us carrier support and market
Headphone jack is good quality one?
This is the only kind of smartphone I truly salivate over. I mean I'm not even using anything remotely like it and may never choose to, because my phone only really needs to be a good communicator with the ability to do social media and nice automatic snapshots. That's why I moved from an LG V20 to a Pixel 3XL to a Pixel 5. But boy does this kind of pro device with such targeted hardware really make me wish I was doing a job that would benefit from its unique strengths.
It's still blowing my mind that I pre-ordered this in may and I'm waiting on a September release date 🥴
Between the 1 iv and the 5 iv which one should i choose? Besides the size of the phone of course!
Love the way you do impressions of spec nerds. 🤣
Next thing I'm waiting from Sony is some sort of R version of their flagship, as they do with their Alpha cameras. I think this will complement what they're already greatly achieving.
We'll just have to choose between what we want then.
May I ask what you mean by R version?
@@Sabundy
Sony with their Alpha 7 cameras for example, has a normal 7, an S and an R version. The standard 7 does most of things well, and then there are the other 2. The S stands for "sensitivity" if I'm correct and it's the one with the lowest resolution. On a big sensor it makes each pixel bigger.
The R on the other hand is for "Resolution" (again I'm not 100% sure about that) and it's the highest MP count from the Alpha 7 range
could you tell us overheating issues
They do have multiple storage phones. For example here in the UK we get shafted, the phone will only have 256gb internal memory but cost more than other countries pay for the 512gb device.
Imagine that Sony makes a desktop experience available on the retail version of this thing. That's like way too much power than I really need but, if I had the money, I could even go and try photography and more creative work because of the number of things I could do with this phone. It's insane (and this one isn't even ready, so we're missing what the retail could get)
Very exciting. Good bye Samdung and even One+. Quad DAC still a necessity?
The jack is clean AF with my IEMs, and very detailed
9:56 say Juan, give me the name & model number on these Bluetooth headphones ASAP!🙏🏿🙏🏿🙏🏿🙏🏿🙏🏿🙏🏿🤔Are these bluetooth headphones like a 2 & 1 that you can use with a headphone jack? I need something like these.
Nope those are traditional IEMs from ikko th-cam.com/video/635OuAmjIaA/w-d-xo.html
Is the shutter speed faster than iPhones?
What I like about Sony phones is the stock android, no custom UI like other Brands so there is no buggy UI.
Bugs on my Sony Xperia 1 II is minimum to zero, I only dislike the auto-brightness because sometimes it is so dim that all.
