Just got this phone 3 days ago. I love it! I just wish someone would have said that all apps are google apps. Photos, messages ect. I am a privacy advocate. It's a ton of work to find alternatives that this phone will work well with. But it's an awesome phone, I just don't want google everywhere
I received the update 3 days ago. (FYI I am in Greece but I have set up my location to Japan so that could be a factor to take into consideration). What I have noticed so far is that the Pro video is included in the update and also some improvements on the game launcher app. Apart from that the aod is a bit different and that's pretty much it. The bummer about Sony is that they do not have release notes so in every update you have to guess what's being updated
Samsung really dropped the ball with software update this time. I got my S24 Ultra the first day it came out and now one year later and about a month or two before the new top level model comes out and I still don't have any major update.
Hey man, I'd really like to get the Xperia 1 VI to replace my still very good LG G8 do you still recommend it? I had the Xperia 1 III very briefly I wasn't impressed so I sold it. I'm still holding on to my LG. Now I'm thinking should I wait for the OnePlus 13 when it comes out or get this Xperia 1 VI? Thanks
Only Sony right now gives you natural looking photos and when you zoom in too much the photo might get distorted but when zoom too much into pics taken by other Phones u will find cartoon or painting like feeling...that's y Sony is far more superior in natural picture quality though this mark 6 is a bit vibrat and colorful in terms of clicking pics...if ur looking for camera then it's also the 2024 best camera recommend by GSMArena as well...good luck for wt ever ur planning, tc.
I just noticed tht the dark mode in Sony Xperia 1 Vi is no longer pure black with Android 15 😢 i have contacted Sony Support to make them change it to black.
@ mine does too. It just started rolling out today. I mentioned in my video that it may not be available for everyone today. Check over the next few days
Sony was fast with this update because they changed nothing :D Only pushed one tab into camera app (video pro). Camera app is now crammed full of nonsense with no separate pro apps as in previous models.
Hi, I really like the fact this phone have Hfjack and sd card. Im thinking about changing from my s23. Does that phone have desktop mode like samsung dex?
And Samsung need to do something because we are still waiting for the S24 Ultra this is so crazy Samsung need to get off their ass and go ahead give us the beta One UI 7 and the base One UI 7 Android 15
WHAT, the fu,,ing Sony before Smugsin.... Bye Samsung. I don't care how good or what ever 7.0 is going to be. You should have published something already
2012-2015 sony was the worst with updates they were literally 7-8 months behind everyone else 2016-2019 they were one of the best and sometimes would outdo google itself Currently they are average sometimes they are quick sometimes they aren't
Sony undeniably has some excellent products: Bravia TVs, outstanding audio systems, the PlayStation 5, and incredible cameras and lenses. But why are their smartphones such a massive disappointment, especially at such premium prices? The strangest part? Sony fans. They stubbornly defend the brand, turning a blind eye to glaring flaws: outdated software, mediocre battery life, overpriced devices, and subpar customer support. How can anyone overlook these issues? For the same amount of money, you could get a Samsung, iPhone, or even a OnePlus or Vivo, all of which outperform Sony smartphones in nearly every category. If you’re still choosing Sony phones, it’s time to seriously rethink your priorities. **P.S.** If you’re after features like a microSD slot and a headphone jack, even Asus has you covered.
Long battery life , slim phone chassis , dual front firing speakers , IP68 , no notch nonsense on display, 3.5mm , micro sd card expansion, no need for sim tool to extract the nano sim all in a light weight package. Where can you find them?
Any brand has some quirks. The battery is just one of Sony's strengths. That is not mediocre. Sony is just true to themselves and provides a phone with characteristics you can seldom find, or even find from other phones. Some fans just value what is there that is not on others. Sure, some were also removed - notif. LED. But there are few phones with uninterrupted display, front-firing stereo speakers (cannot find any other, is there?), microsd slot and headphone jack maybe are present on other smartphones (and workarounds exist), but they lack on other things mentioned.
It's not just front firing speakers, they are kind of equal in power. Wind reduction is another feature that's not available on other phones. Camera button is not available on other phones. And Sony beats Samsung at making photos, but you need to learn photography tips... Samsung S24 Ultra has more noise in photos and it's ergonomics are really bad. I don't like notches, so no thanks, I prefer a clean Android which always works fast.

Welcome to team xperia!
@bloodytoad2010 thank you
A real shame Samsung is waiting until January to update their phones.
Samsung has a lot more work to do.
...and the S24U owners are still waiting...
Samsung will hold back the Android 15 update to S24 owners, to make it another selling point on the S25 series.

This should come to the 1 Mk V as well, correct?
Maybe Next year
What's the case you have for that Xperia?
I use the official Sony one

Awesome news!!!
When are we going to start Clowning Samsung for holding back Android 15 on S24U?
I made a video about it already
Yeah I’m looking for it, very interesting ❤❤❤❤😊😊😊
Sony changed the video pro app. With Android 15 and camera quality aswell
Wow what's the improvement to camera quality?
Yeah what's the image quality improvement?
Wait...how about for the Xperia 1 V ? 🤔
Not sure yet. Probably soon
Mine says it is up to date, on Android 14
@ mine does too. It just started rolling out today. I mentioned in my video that it may not be available for everyone today. Check over the next few days
@@TechOdyssey I'm outside the US, so I may wait a bit longer. Thanks for the video.
Usually it takes a month or two after the current model. So maybe it will came before Christmas
I really want to buy one of these but im worried about the connectivity on AT&T in the U.S. I could also go the easy route and just get the 1 V
Or you can still getan Xperia 1 V
Sony 1 VI ❤
That’s too much money to have to wait to get your moneys worth but it’s a awesome looking phone Sony 6 , longevity= Apple 🍏
No android 15 on mine yet, from Hong Kong 🥲
I’m still waiting too. Sadly.
Actually my global version of the Xiaomi 14 got Android 15 2 weeks ago.
What's the call quality like on loud speaker? I had one before and put it back due to poor call quality on loud speaker
Great quality, I own it since six month
Nice video
Sony was fast with this update because they changed nothing :D
Only pushed one tab into camera app (video pro). Camera app is now crammed full of nonsense with no separate pro apps as in previous models.
Sad but true. Even the mic sensitivity or volume is gone now :/
Whoop whoop 😊
Nice 🎉
Probably the only update it will get
