I hope Sony never listens to people complaining about the power button/fingerprint sensor; it is amazing compared to in-screen junk. I feel the under screen placement is so awkward. All I need to do with my 1 V is pick it up. My fingers fall into place to unlock the phone naturally. If you keep getting phantom attempts that force you to use the pin, then use the settings to make it so you need to PRESS the button to read your fingerprint.

​​​​@@potentatewagsalso an xperia 1 iii user here! (Well, used to be. Currently upgrading to the V). I agree a lot. I can't find myself even going to other phones anymore because the xperia has more practicality, and less excuses to its design. I've enjoyed it so much

I've had my 1 V for 2 months now: No fingerprint unlock issues at all Night mode in the "Basic" mode on Photography Pro is great! It is a natural night mode, not a "turn night into day" mode like other AI computational photography flagships. The 3 different apps for photos/videos all serve for different ways to take photos/videos. And in the "basic" mode which boots up by default on the camera app there is a video toggle. FM radio and IR? You kidding?! Most TV's now days allow you to control via Bluetooth and/or an App/Over the Wifi. Most radio stations can be found via the internet/dedicated apps for those not using Spotify/KZread/Amazon/Apple music.....so about 1% of the population. There is no 8K Video recording.....but there is 4K at 120fps on all rear camera lenses!!! I know which I prefer. I'll give you the negative about there being no LTPO on the screen, but to be fair, it is 4K 120fps and I still get 2 days battery life easily. Overall it is a fantastic phone for those that are willing/wanting to learn about pure photography! As a hybrid camera/Android phone it is the best. But it is only for those that have done the research and are not expecting a "pick up and shoot" camera

My I v works flawlessly. No fingerprint issue here. The reviewer forgot to mention that his sample had the issue. The phone works superbly with the Sony Vlog Monitor and the Sony Selfie Stickand gets excellent photo composition. For serious photography I use the Sony A7R IV A . He was getting bent out of shape over throttling issues but phone cameras are designed to have fun with and not shoot the next installment of Mission Impossible. Swapped a Zold 4 for the Sony. Crummy camera. Have the S23 Ultra, does not even come close to offering control over your shot like this Sony does.

I agree i also have the Xperia 1V simce almost 3 month and use the fingerprint scanner every day and that fingerprint scanner works excellent . Anyway this review of the Xperia 1V from this you tuber is a hit and mess.

That was a typical Samsung ordered competitors review :)

Most of the missing features mentioned at the end are useless gimmicks and you can take macro shots all right on main or ultrawide lenses. There is AI automatic macro mode in basic mode and in PRO mode you can manually focus to macro distance. Optionally you can take tele macro. IMO best macro shots are with main lens 2x zoom. That's on my mark IV, on mark V should be even better. Fingerprint sensor is on perfect spot, however it's prone to fail if too dry or too wet fingers or when the sensor its dirty. My only complaint would be weak flashlight and focusing and quality of zoom lense above 100mm, and it needs almost perfect light conditions to be reliable. I also don't miss adaptive refresh rate, there is no issue with smoothness in 120Hz mode but rather with battery consumption.

Night view can be vastly superior to other phones if you know how to tweak the settings properly. Much closer to a professional camera than other smartphones. Video quality is excellent with no overheating and you can comfortably shoot over an hour of 4k video .For photographers the amount of control you have over the resulting image is vastly superior to other flagships especially if you're willing to take the time to explore all the menu options and work out the best settings for each scenario. In some cases you may need to play around with the shutter speed and exposure compensation to get the best results. Sony should look at making their menu systems more user friendly like Pentax with a far simpler menu layout, but if you already have a Sony Alpha camera or a Sony camcorder, you will find the layout is fairly similar. The audio when paired with Sony's own premium headphone range is unmatched. This phone might not be as user friendly as other smartphones but it can do a lot more. I'm not bothered about the lack of an 8k video option as the additional cooling required to shoot a long enough clip wouldn't make this viable. I was able to shoot video for over 3 hours yesterday with one clip over an hour and four other clips each around 30 minutes duration of red squirrel and the subject tracking was amazing for a smartphone.

So Genius that I’ve lost 800€ from the crappy 1 IV

It's definitely better than Sony Xperia 1 IV. I'm using the phone with pleasure, no troubles 🙂I am a technical person doing fieldwork, I've never got problems with fingerprint sensors on any Sony mobile device! Smooth operating device with solid structure and stylish design. If you are looking for a cheaper device with numerical superior values; buy a Chineese brand. If you have money and don't care about what, why, how etc; buy an Apple device. If you don't or can't spend so much money; buy a Samsung. Aspect ratio and bezels on display are practical features for me. What is the value for vibrant colors? You try to evaluate the screen with numerical values as if it were a reference monitor, and then you make an absurd comment about the vibrantness of the colors! You konw, you can adjust all features according to your taste and/or needs. The camera with basic settings may not meet your expectations you get with other brands. When you discover what you can do with a little interest, curiosity and desire adjusting manual settings, you will ask yourself why you haven't done it before. (Because other brands do not offer such options) But still Sony probably isn't making these devices that everyone can use plug-and-play. But it's ridiculous that you're left to impose your fictitious standards, ignoring the satisfaction of Sony's loyal users. If you are going to make a criticism about the device, I think the most important disadvantage of the Xperia flagships is the ongoing heating problem, which is fixed from time to time. The mobile device I'm using should not necessarily be trend or most liked or most selled etc. it doesn't even have to be the "most" or "best" of anything at all. IIt does not have sence to have a mobile device with a super ultra resolution camera, when you shoot a video vertically? Where do you want to watch that ultra sh*t? I talked big, soon you will fabricate a standard that televisions are used vertically! My admiration for Sony's creativity, elegance and inventiveness comes from the day I used my first Walkman. However, the experience and pleasure I gained from the products I have used since then, from a simple cosumer electronic device to professional devices, reinforced my admiration. Thankfully, Sony does not change their standarts based on populist comments.

I have to totally agree with you. Xperia 1 series is a totally nieche phone and it has much more character than a lot of competitors. Why? Because Sony has put a lot of effort for this phone to be a "content creator" phone. And it shows quite clearly when you are using it. Most importantly cameras, and taking a picture. It does take quite nice photos in basic and auto mode, as point and shoot, but it doesnt excell in it. Why? Because it´s AI capabilities lack behind. Iphone 14 and S23 Ultra seem to be better at it. But if you put Xperia 1V in manual mode, know a bit what you are doing, use RAW and post process your photos (especially using 24mm camera), it is just fantastic. I have taken lot of photos that resemble bigger sensor camera photos than a smartphone one (PC screen is way less forgiving than smartphone screen). It has exellent capabilities for video creation, 120hz, 4k video in all cameras with really good autofocus. This aspect I havent tested alot but seems really promising. The screen, truly cinematic 21:9 aspect ratio with 4k resolution and supporting 10bit colour scale with 120hz refresh rate (at the moment being fixed, not automatically variable). Really i dont understand where TECH WORD takes its sentence that 1V screen is not that vivid and great. Front facing phone speakers that actually have some depth and giving surprisingly good sound from its really limited enclosure (for me, its quite like magic, i dont know how they managed to make them sound so good while being so small). And how many flagships have 3,5mm stereo out/MIC in port and memory card capabilities. It is getting rare. In 1V the overheating problem has been solved, it will get slightly warm when downloading a 20gb file at 11mb/s and doing 15min videochat in teams using cellural data but nothing concerning. Will run most demanding games without problems. For fingerprint scanner, when my hands are sweaty and dirty it can give occasional hiccups, but 95% works like a charm. Obviously with this phone, its price is what makes one think if its the best option. It aint cheap, and its not for everyone. But for me Xperia 1V gave that "its the one" feeling and I am not regretting it. Especially love its narrow and tall design in portrait, fits really well in hand.

I highly recommend if you are in a position to purchase.

As usual there is 0 talk about Sony's LDAC sound, like do people testing these phones even use them other than on some benchmark testing? I surely mostly use my phone listening to music with Sony XM headphones and high quality music streaming service, nothing else comes to even close of that quality I hear everyday.

This "review" is hilarious. I have an Xperia 1 V and haven't experienced any kind of bugs or overheating, it has worked flawlessly out of the box. And only an absolute moron would have a hard time setting up their fingerprints on this phone, I've set up 3 fingerprints on my 1 V and never experienced any issues and the fingerprint sensor has worked amazingly, I'd say that it's the best fingerprint sensor that I've ever had on a cellphone. And what the hell is this guy talking about when it comes to the IR blaster and temp sensor? Which decade of phones is he comparing the Sony with? Those things haven't been in flagship phones for years. This guy is really digging into his bag of complaints, which doesn't really appear to be very full because all he's coming up with are the complaint dregs. Is the Sony perfect? No, not at all, but it is FAR better than this review suggests. Makes you wonder why they were so quick to take a dump on the Sony. It's the best phone that I've ever owned.

Blurry camera, frustrating Bluetooth connectivity issues ever since the Android 14 update, battery issues not charging, I've read on forums other people having the same problems. This is an excusable for a $1,500 phone. Not worth the headache.

You don't need to use fingerprints, right? I use passcode anyway

Mines is due to arrive today. This video came in at the right time as I am waiting by the window for the FedEx guy. Haha!

@@Tech-World-YT I missed the pre-order. B&H Photo still has the earbuds and gift card available 2 days ago so I went for it. Paid $1390. I have a 30 day trail period so if it doesn't work for me I can return. I currently have the Pixel 6 Pro. Let's see what Google does with the Pixel 8 Pro.

Finger print sensor is perfect. First time every time. Never change it Sony

Does it have a sd card slot? Yes it does. And does it have a headphone jack? Yes it does.

Is it good to buy ? How much you you'll give out of 10 ?

1:55 Xperia one four . Not five four 😂 detail is important . Btw I love the all the Sony phones . Been using since the Sony Ericsson era . No matter how weird and different the phone from another brand . I'm so love it and appreciate the uniqueness Sony bring to their phones . But one thing that I really admit , the disadvantage of the phone is 100% at the launching price 😢 so expensive

The cons are not explained welll and these explanation are not detailed and precise...some are nearly wrong..

WOW 👑 SONY GOD FOREVER#1 ✌️ 👑

Sony xperia phones has the best and coolest looking camera modules imo.

Feel like canceling my order i just placed. Skipped 3 generations because all previous sony phones always overheated especial when using camera. Guess iPhone it will have to be.

Theres no overheating issues except when using sustained 4k 120fps recording which is the same with every phone Any performance throttling will only happen in benchmarks and I dont know anyone who buys a phone just to benchmark it

@@stephenallen4635 especially when using camera.... Every single model I've owned always got laggy and hot for no reason. Never mind if your on holiday and its +30 or more outdoors its just useles.. The phone arrived i played with it for 30mins max and not much camera use not even the 4k and it was already heating up. Boxed up and sent back. As much as i love sony phones, they just constantly f something up. Same with the camera, cant take decent photo in the auto mode, pro mode however the photos are amazin. Whos got time to play with settings if u just wanna point and shoot. Samsung/oppo/oneplus and so many more do the point and shoot in auto mode just way better. This phone probably will be for very few who can be asked using the pro mode. If they carry on this way they soon wont be releasing new flagship phones. Its disgusting sony with their best sensors that they sell to other phone makers just cant get a decent point and shoot mode together. The 3.5mm jack and sd card support alone are worth getting it but theres too many issues with it. Getting the iphone 15in couple weeks never used iphone since iphone 4s and that went back to shop as soon as it was delivered. Hopefully will get on with the new one then it will be adios android.

Was this review written by AI with no experience of the phone? Genuinely seems like it.

When samsung fan makes a review, this is result..

This is why I still drive my Pixel 3 XL. An oldie but goodie. It has the really high resolution screen and great front facing stereo speakers. That is what a phone needs. I am looking at an Xperia 1 mark, something. But cannot afford a 5. I guess as long as my OS 12 hangs in and my battery stays realistic I'll keep my pixel. But the front facing stereo speakers on the Sony, definitely keep my interest.

I miss alot from my old Samsung, but the size of this phone is perfect, just wish it was some better way to take quick pictures without a 50-50 chance of getting crazy dark or crazy white.

This is more aimed at creators than the selfy generation.

You lost me at complaining about not having IR, FM (lol) and stock Android. Not everyone wants a cartoonish UI.

When your video has more dislikes than likes, you know you've done messed up and lied lol. I have zero fingerprint issues on my 1V. In actual fact, all the Sony phones I've had with side fingerprint unlock have had no issues at all.

Good for you, Sony simp. A lot of people do have problems with the fingerprint sensor. Mine stopped working entirely.

I don't know why you would want to use your phone as a flashlight. When you could get a real flashlight for like $5.

Sony introduced amazing things

I bought second 1V 512GB model after I got in some accident and seriously broke my phone(and thanks to SD card slot, all my photos and stuffs are still accessible. Can't belive some idiots buy phone manufacturers' UX and "Securities" bullsh**. They are just cutting corners. Like when removing headphone jack) Beause this is only flagship phone with everything I need. Like headphone jack, sd card slot, side mounted fingerprint scanner...camera that actually feel good to use...everything. I am fuqin scared of sony quitting their phone game. Only people who experienced will understand the wonders of 3.5mm jack. Just connect it with your Amp. Boom. All your streaming sercices, music files on your sd card.... everything is accessible with some touch of fingers.

Only i am not happy about they took away notification light

I do recommend to watch the video to end.

Every smartphone on the market right now sucks, they all have their flaws. I have a OP7Pro and nothing is good so I'm just replacing the battery. So sad. I don't like how sony's fingerprint scanner is not-in screen. My phone is 4 years old and has it. A shame, really. Sony does have the best music out of all phones, I recon apple has the worst music due to its forced encoding to AAC, unless streamed. gonna wait a couple of years until smartphones become exciting again.

It can survive accidental fall into the pool? Really? I always wash my xperia 1 iii with soap and water whenever it gets dirty 😂😂😂😂

First time hearing the truth from reviewers about fingerprint sensor - it just bad. In most cases doesn't work. Very frustrating. Overall not a deal breaker for Sony but I always wonder why they didn't change/improve it. I experienced it also in 1 iii. + Flashlight is still reeealy weak. Find strange here to hear the advice to bundle up the Photo, Video and Cinema app.. how it even possible? Do you even use them?) Great review! Thank you!

If you root the phone theres a script you can use to bring the flashlight up to its max brightness

No fingerprint issues here as well. The camera apps, while having idea vs execution issue, are a very refreshing experience and I think those who have this phone know it very well and I personally like to have some learning curve because the pictures and videos feel more rewarding. Also I never encountered the software bugs you mentioned. The part with the stuff you mentioned are missing, I really slapped my head when you began to talk about them, I just cringed so much. Some extremely niche features which aren't even wanted by the majority of people( at least that I know of), I mean it's like (I know the example is pretty bad but I think it's close enough regardless) someone complains about stuff normal internet is missing which is in abundance in the deep/dark web, while 99% of people aren't interested in those stuff. I know you have no bad intention with this content, but I don't think it would be wrong to mention that your problems may not be common.

Hmmm!!! You complain bout finger sensor, you complain bout the wideness of the screen, you complain bout not having radio infact you complain bout almost everything bout this phone. What a critic!? In as much I don't have this phone or I can not afford it as of now.. But I have watched the reviews and the comparisons from other channels, 98-99% of the reviewers rated this phone well. Just some few people like you rating this phone negatively. Phone that beat Samsung Galaxy S23 ultra and others in many ways is the phone you're complaining nonesense. Sone Xperia 1V is not for children, is for professional users. If you can't handle it leave it instead of trash talking it.

The best place for finger sensors is at Sony The best phones come from Sony, I really don't know what he's talking about

This dude is an Iphone lover I'm sure of that.
