Literally, dozens of people globally will be mildly interested in this phone.... Count me among them.
We few. We happy few.
Dozens of us, ha ha!
Yea if only Sony wasn't so expensive lol
Not those iPhone idiots for sure right!? right!?
@@devilkazumi578They say they are dropping their phones down to 2k instead of 4k, since 4k is technically useless at that size and will make the phone more affordable. Buy we will have to see just how much cheaper it will be.
(Other things Sony needs to do)
1: Bring back the LED notification light. The 1VI probably won't have it but the 2025 successor should return that feature, the same came be said about 3D Face ID & faster charging.
2; They NEED to bring back a modernized Sony Gallery Album, I hate using google photos & 3rd party gallery apps aren't as synchronized with the UI.
3: They should have a trade-in offer program. If I'm give the option to trade in my S24 Ultra for a 1VI, I might just do it.
4: They should do carrier deals & let customers Choose what pre-order bundles they'd want.
I agree. And I definitely miss the LED notification
For me it's the brightness , sony phones have had abysmal brightness compared to everyone else , i think it might have had something to do with the screen being 4k although i'm not sure , but this phone has to be on par with the competition in terms of brightness for me to consider getting it as much as i love sony phones .
5. Bring back the dedicated hardware assistant button like the 1 III.
I hate the power button shortcut on my 1v which limits my options for tasker shortcuts.
@@khalil-j6j Agreed
@@Vamanos46 Yeah, I want to see that return too.
Great video brining all the leaks together, can't wait!
Sure thing. You’re welcome.
I've always liked the Sony phones it just sucks with a lack of US support and I know they're not the greatest with the updates but they really make nice hardware
This one won't be launched in us

@@Ali-M2so I won’t be able to get this ? We still got the Xperia 1 v as the newest Sony phone ?
Love the Xperia 1v and super interested in this vi. Thanks for the great content!
Yes, I love SONY phones!!!
Thanks for the heads-up
Any time!
I just hope they would keep the 4k display 🤞🤞🤞
Awesome for all the 52 people that will buy it!
😂
Awful for the only one that will ignore it 😢
Very happy with my phone Xperia 1v
And ready to buy Xperia 1vi
I am excited about the new specifications that Sony will offer
Very interested on this, with all the manual controls, optical zoom and variable aperture (main lens, at least). Hoping it will have a larger sensor than predecessor and merged apps. Also you're so right about the short OS support, which sucks.
Variable aperture would be awesome! Loved that about the Pro-i
I hope they put a good DAC into the phone. I still use my LG v60
That would be nice
Xperia 5 series is a god tier phones only haters who never used it gonna trash talk about that beast. But yeah only one thing is that its pretty costly hope they reduce the costs atleast a little.
Lack of OS support? It’s pretty damn bad for 2024 lol you got phones a 1/3 of the price getting 3 times the support
I`ve always had Sony phones they are the best.
I am happy with 12 months of support, because I don't keep a phone more than 6-8 months ... I am very excited to see this phone, it is a launch pickup for me. That form factor is excellent. I am currently playing with a Nubia Z60 Ultra and the Vivo x100 pro, having just sold an Xperia 1V I am amped for the Sony train to pick me up again.
I can not wait! I love Sony and hope it will be possible to buy VI soon in the Czech Republic.
🫡
I just bought the I 1V and getting used it as it was on sale on sony's website.
What when
Wow
Can't wait until it comes to US
I'll be upgrading to the 1VI from the original 1iii... still going strong after two and a half years of use so I'm expecting a substantial improvement. I'm all about the Audio and the 3.5mm headphone jack which I've found pretty impressive via Tidal Music and numerous wired in ear monitors ranging from £70 - £1500.
This thing is legit for portable music. I literally don't even use the Camera unless it's for eBay Pics 🤭
Info packed Xperia 6 update. Really waiting for this Sony phone release, as a fan if nothing else.
Great informational video. Thank you.
SONY это телефон для узкого круга потребителей.Но этот телефон ни с какими не спутаешь он один такой.👍👍👍👍👍
Thank you so much Sir.
You’re welcome
Hardwarewise I would buy Sony phones in heart beat (SD, Headphone Jack, wireless charging, modern chip, good camera spec wise) but update support is not good when midrangers beat you, also multiple camera apps is fine for pro's but have a simple camera app for the normal user.
I really hope they change the screen aspect ratio to make it shorter. The current design feels like tv remote and the bezels and the letterboxing is ridiculous when watching youtube. I'm looking forward to the new design
Brutal se realmente voltaram a usar o antigo rácio como o S24 síria brutal era o que faltava para os Sony serem imbatíveis melhor dom melhor imagem melhor componentes e a medida anterior de rácio agora sim a Sony fará o melhor telemóvel de todos os tempos estou ansioso por ver esse BEST.😁
Awesome!
Thanks!
Interesting video. I am curious but not ready to update, after only 1 year.
I'd like to see something in the 24-80mm range; where there is currently a gap. This is a very popular zoom in real lenses for portraits and weddings etc. Macro would be nice but on the V the high end zoom focal length is not that good, so I hope that improves.
Can’t wait ❤
I owe 10 mark 3. Now for a 2,5 years. still good phone. The battery is not so durable anymore but all other functions without any problems. Sony makes quality phones!
Very good review, thank you, keep it up. Unfortunately, Sony, which only thinks about marketing, not customer service, was unable to quickly release the Xperia 1 V in France. The majority of known websites lied about availability, except Amazon France which was very honest. In France, we hope that this year we will be able to very quickly have a large number of Sony Xperia 1 VI on Amazon France.
Can't wait to hear your impressions on the actual unit 🙂
never had one, usually Iphones and google phones. I am looking forward to buying one.
Streaming FLAC and Hi Res audio with my I V with sony music to my car and the Quality is Superb with this phone! Got the phone since launch. No Regrets!
Why don't sony push one more update for Xperia 1 iii
Its stuck at android 13
Where Xperia 1iv promise for 3 updates😅
They promised 2, not 3
Can't wait to see the release next week. As a long time Xperia user until now, I just wanna beg Sony to pleaseeee, extend the damn software support. Having only 2 major updates plus a one year security patches with prices above the S24 Ultra and iPhone pro max (even worse for the pro line back then) is just god awful to put it mildly. To me, that combo is a major red flag for many potential buyers apart from the manual-centric camera, and overkill display. Sony used to be great with software support in the first years since parting away with Ericsson. Like one of the first to get major updates after Nexus devices, and their AOSP program for select devices. Even a Playstore edition for the Z ultra, which is a vanilla version of the z ultra and updates like a Nexus device. Here's hope Sony will be able to fix that major flaw, since how you attract more people to buy your 'above market price/niche segmented devices' that way? People liked the Mk. V lineup. Yet many people in the comments section of many youtube review vids keeps pointing the same issue.
Naah imma still go for the 1v , cuz of the 21:9 and 4k. Truly a unique phone experience
Love the 1 V I have. Does Sony have a trade in program to upgrade. Think it would be worth the upgrade from the 1 V?
The V is still good. I would skip this year if I were you. I have the IV and would skip this year as well, but mine broke so I'll be going with the VI haha
@@jukijunk thanks for the tip. Appreciate it
I have the 1V and overall I'm pretty happy with it. I will swap for the 1VI when the 16mm and 85mm get better sensors.
The problem with Sony phones is that new features are never backported to older models. The mark IV series didn’t get vertical photo pro with the Android 14, update, yet they got vertical video pro. The 10 VI is rumoured to be getting creative looks, and the 1 IV/ 5 IV didn’t get any of them. Samsung, on the other hand, is bringing Galaxy AI to their s22 series. Google gives feature drops. Who would be paying that much for a phone that offers 2 years of OS update, with no added features? Sony really needs to work on their software support.
Why doesn’t Sony create a physical keyboard? I know they’d sell like hot cakes….
I wish.
I use the Verizon network I wanted to get the Xperia 1 V last year but I really want to be able to see it in person before purchasing. Now I am very interested in the upcoming release of Xperia 1 vi. I can't get a straight answer as to whether or not it will work with Verizon? Any idea if it will?
Won’t find out until it launches
@@TechOdysseyplease add US carriers in your update video.
Nice video
If they downgrade to 2k I'll just get the V, it doesn't even have 40W charge and it's a high end device.
Sony doesn't sell these in India. I will have to experience it through you😊. just bought Samsung Galaxy A35, it's not as bad as some people complain about it.
Hope they expand the internal memory to 512 and keep the micro sd expansion. Also, if they have to kill the aspect ratio, I hope they make the phone thinner on the sides.
I wish sony implemented there android walkman line into the android phones since sony still sells android hi res audio players that runs android. However, the sony xperia walkman lines have 2 versions, 1 version with the volume capped and the second version that has unvolume capped. The uncapped version of the sony xperia walkman has high gain for high impedance headphones and in ear monitors for driving hard to drive headphones and in ear monitors. Maybe sony new flagship phone could still have the same 21:9 aspect ratio with it's 4k 120 hz oled with 4,000 nits and 4k 120 hz mini led with 4,000 nits like the bravia 9 sony 4k mini led tv peak brightness, 512gb and 1tb storage options, micro sd card slot, dual physical sim card slots with no e-sim, all the 5g bands support, 6500 mah battery capacity like the red magic 9 pro gaming phone magic, headphone jack, 16gb ram, headphone jack. I already have burn in issues with my sony xperia 1 iv since the brightness has gotten dimmer as well and thats why I wish there was a mini led display version with a substantial brightness increase for better outdoor visibility. Sony also acquired audeze the audiophile company. I also wish sony implemented the audeze engineering into there newer android phones and xperia walkman android hi res audio players.
Maybe a microscope feature like the Oppo X5?
Maybe!
@@TechOdyssey that would be neat
If only Sony sold there phones in Australia i would be tempted by this something different all i see is galaxy and iPhones in Australia wouldn't mind having something more niche 🙈
Costs too much for me. I will be sticking with the Xperia 1V for many years to come.
Nothing wrong with that. It’s a great phone
@@TechOdyssey yeah, I didn't want to spend this much but it has almost everything I needed. Feels great to be off the hamster wheel.
I still have experia xz with radio ✅✅✅
I hope the Improve their Camera App
Sony is supposedly not selling the phone in the US. Is that true?
Every year the exact same phone with a new soc and insane high price.
Looking forward to it. Just not sure if I will get it over the Moondrop phone. Plus my 1 IV still works.
1080p from 4k?!
Xperia Brought
- Bypass Charging and This why I love SX phone
- But I love Themes I'll use it as a Secondary Device
- My Regular device will Be Xiaomi ( I love Themes)
ZTE has 1/3 update policy and motorola has 1/3 on budget devices, so it's not the worst, it's near worst. But yeah, it's bad it has update policy of a 80 euro phone(Redmi A3)
❤❤❤😊😊🎉🎉🎉🎉
👍
Im torn, im excited, im sad, i have had several xperias at this point, not sure if im going to like the new aspect ratio, i pretty much got used to it, after years of wishing it was a little wider now i feel like its going to be too big. A 20:9 probably would of been a better move.
the phone updates are good but the resale of the previous model is shocking, the Xperia V is currently trending for £500 on ebay for an initial outlay of £1299 😒
I want to buy it but point and shoot is an issue for me.
I have been a big fan of Sony phones, but since 2018 they have had lots of heating and software issues. So I decided to move to Oneplus and nothing phone.
Finally ;) will pre-order it blindly and sell 15 pro max.
I mean, where to even buy this phone?
We will find out when it launches but traditionally the Sony website, Best Buy website, and Amazon.
Yes yes yes. Since xperia 1 mark 2 I have been listening to the same crap. Great photo quality. Great sensor. Great videos. Great night mode. Great everything !!! Maybe hardware is great , but software !!!!
Hoping for some improvements. They pretty much have to at this point.
No mirror back, no Sony. I'm gonna stick with 1 MK.2 for more years.
Wow, look at the size of those bezels.
Will it come with 7 years of software updates?
More like 2 years
@@superiortoall22
And thay wonder why noone buys there phones anymore.
@@JohnSmith-ef8nr exactly, if they said “4 years of OS updates” I’d trade in my OnePlus Open and try an Xperia phone but until then, no interest.
hi bro anytime
Hi! My galaxy s24 ultra is sitting in a desk drawer, it's just not possible to use it, the camera is mostly bad and the color gamuts of the camera are mostly wrong. ultra also does some different, nasty tricks, and that's a shame. The galaxy s24 ultra is constantly hot and the battery doesn't last as long as it used to, I don't know why they still haven't fixed it and the cameras too, the phone is somehow getting worse and worse I'm really sorry I switched to Xperia 1 V against galaxy s24 ultra because it is not consistently good and not reliable. I'm really looking forward to the Sony Xperia 1 VI, the launch of the new Xperia is coming soon, it's May 15 and then I'll trade my s24 ultra back to Xperia again. The current main phone is still the reliable, consistently working iPhone with the best camera and screen.
Sony superior to any other phone...period...
Excuses every Sony phone has been superior to every phone in it's category since beginning of phones...only phone every to beat Sony at the time was HTC...
I cannot wait for the mark 6 to come out. I'm guessing O2 will announce pre registration for the UK right after the launch announcement. Sony definitely needs a computational AI mode to leverage the hardware's ability for the masses and we need to see some of this sensor tech start trickling down to the midrange handsets too. I'd really like Sony to make a real competitor to iPhone and Samsung. They need computational photography nailed followed by a great marketing campaign. Sony should hire Jonny Ive to design a budget phone for the brand that keeps the unique selling features intact (headphone jack, sd card slot and shutter button). I would also like to see Sony release an ultra version of this phone, like an updated Pro-i with one inch sensors and the same DAC as their entry level Walkman so we could have a true audiophile phone....oh and please give us a foldable, Sony. Just take the Mark V and put it into a folding chassis on a par with the One Plus Open then give us the "ultra" version of that which gives us the same spec and cameras as the 1 VI. If Sony use their advanced sensors as a carrot they could do a deal with One Plus to allow only them to have these advanced low light sensors for 6 months for the Chinese market while Sony focus on the rest of the world and then allow both companies to compete head on worldwide and in exchange One Plus could help Sony hit the ground running with a Sony branded foldable. Oh yeah, and Sony needs their version of DEX so they can re-enter the desktop computer market via the back door using these new insanely great Snapdragon gen 3 SOCs. I'm not asking for much, am I?
finally throwing out this awful 21:9 form factor, this was the deal breaker that led me not even thinking about those sony phones
Been with xperia for 3 Generations now and could never recommend it because of minor bugs and performance... I myself kept coming back for that 4k, 3.5mm and microSD. Now that they are rumored to get rid of the 4k screen i will pause on xperia and my wallet will thank me for it i am sure😂
I am excited to see what Sony brings but wish they'd update the design now it's looking dated and boring
if there is no 5 years OS updates, wifi 7, a better camera app with for normal users and under screen fingerscanner sensor and level 3 face unlock this phone is shit! pixel 8 must be a better choice or iphone 15 pro
I can suggest a good barber
Don’t waste my time with this
I will buy this phone only if they give at least 3 years of android uldates
would the japanese version work in america?
It will. The only question mark is on 5G compatibility but it's gotten much better over the years
For GSM networks only (ATT, T-Mobile). Only the USA model has CDMA compatibility (Verizon). .... Unless they change that with the VI, but it's been this way for years.
@damonappel is that the only difference between the Japanese and US versions? I have t-mobile so I don't care. What about the software? That's my main concern
Good phone, garbage support. Pixel 8 Pro have 7 years and also a very good camera system.
It's a joke how Sony doesn't give a sh1t of their users...
I am really looking forward to this phone, I'm hoping they still keep the Micro SD card slot as there are rumors of a 1TB model which would be great along side the Micro SD card slot. The bigger screen is definitely awesome for me hopefully it would be better when using display out as I use my phone like a portable emulation console so hoping for those features as well. Great video keep it up!
Few reason why I buy Sony phone: Natural vivid comfort display, Dynamic super clear bass speaker sound, Unique design, Photo shutter button, Changable Hi-Res music album art, Nice design accessories, these reasons was compared to Samsung which can't did well as Sony
It's a phone upgrade year for me. And I'm planning to go with Xperia this time, so I'm very excited for this announcement
No 3.5 Jack no go..
Did they move the launch date up by two days? I’m excited for this and the Vivo x100 Ultra. The icing on the cake for the VI would be the earlier rumored triple 48mp sensor set up and not the latter 48, 12, 12 set up. If this is the last of this series of phones they don’t need to hold back.
I will say this everywhere: Sony is unable to do the right thing for once. 4K was overkill and (almost) useless in a 6-7" screen. But 1080p? It's ancient history and many people will be put off by that alone. Why not choose a 1440p display, like everbody else is doing with their flagships?
Meh, I miss the great Sony Ericsson Walkman era. Today's Xperia phones all look the same, super expensive, and don't aim for the general public.
Well, I have a Xperia xz2 6gb ram version. Still rocking hard! The only thing I did : I replace the battery {yes, me! So easy to change it!}. So why change it? The phone is perfect after me. Let's sit and wait. Maybe the Xperia 5 mark vi will be my next one!
My first Android phone was a Sony Xperia X10 and this phone is my favourite slate style non-folding phone
sony is THE most under-rated company in the world and I can only hope for them to find the courage to expand their product range.
Wouldn't say sony product wide is underrated. The Sony playstation and TVs are mad hyped.
@@deanomoses51 Agreed. Maybe for phones they're under-represented, but they're in no way underrated.
Я раньше был поклонником сони, но с их ценовой политикой перешёл на хуавей до этого перепробовов многое! Хуавей сейчас лучшее что можно купить за адекватные деньги!
I am so excited for this launch, if they promise a long software support, the phone gonna be lit. I am not gonna miss the aspect ratio, typing on the old aspect ratio was a mess even though it was great for scrolling.
This suck. No 21:9 ratio. No 4k. Now I have no reason to buy the phone. So disappointed.
There are still a lot of reasons
Why in the hell u need damn 4k in a damn phone screen. Our eyes cant see the difference in such a damn small screen

@@GINOxRED exactly. There isn’t even anything new today and it’s 1030am and I still haven’t slept! Who needs it.
sony phones always were shit
I don't think it's continuous zooming anymore for the 6. A rumor I saw said it'd be 48MP cameras all around, where it'll crop to 2x and save a lossless 12MP photo, similar to what iPhones do with the main camera. That's why it's 85-170. But it remains to be seen.
How come a brand with literally top of the line photo devices can’t make a phone with good cameras?
I believe the AI is improved too.
Should be
