Xiaomi 13 Ultra VS Sony XPERIA 1 V Camera Battle!
Вставка
- Опубліковано 26 чер 2023
- TEAM SGG PATREON / somegadgetguy Xiaomi vs Sony! Zeiss vs Leica! Xiaomi 13 Ultra vs Sony XPERIA 1 V! THERE IS NO WINNER! I love both of these camera platforms, and I can't think of two phones that both represent "mobile professional" better, but do so in such SIGNIFICANTLY different ways. Spending this much on a camera focused phone, we REALLY want to highlight how well they can specialize on the needs of specific consumers. It's time for a showdown!

Video on channel Kai W, guy could do over 4h of 4K@60 , 85 fahrenheit environment
Yeah, as alpha user, Sony, I’ll definitely go for the Xperia. But Duilio the xiaomi is very nice. Yes, you are right, also other camera manufacturers should cooperate with cell phone producers… is more cool stuff to be expected!
This review says something different 😢!??😊
I'm a sucker for Sony's natural colors. They look so good. I hate the oversaturated colors that most phones produce.
You and me both. Natural colours always look better than social media oversaturated colours.
@@farishanafiah8461you two and me both
Me too. Count me in for loving Sony's natural colours
I think now days with the option of shooting raw it's not that critical.
Dude.....your channel is the Sony Xperia of tech review channels. Criminally underrated and far too few subscriptions relative to the quality of videos you put out.
😊
Xiaomi 13 ultra has more potential as filters?
Just shattered the screen on my Xperia 1 III the other day, looks like the 1 V is in my future lol. For real though, the manual controls, headphone/mic jack, and expandable storage are real game changers for people like me who like to get nerdy with this stuff
RIP XPERIA. RIP. 😢
FINALLY! The camera showdown I've been waiting for. I've never looked forward to such a video since the V60 days. These two devices are hands down the best. One wouldn't be disappointed with either.
Me three! 🙋🏻
The night mode on Sony Xperia 1 v is the best night results I have ever seen on a camera, I always hated the fake bright nightmodes on other phones.
Seeing the red on that truck with the xiomi is mind blowing.
I think the thing is sony tends to produce what we see and other ai based cameras tends to process the photos to show unreal details, we can also achieve this with Sony by just cracking up the shadows.
exactly. Agree 100%. I can't stand those fake looking night vision photos.
@@pokemob_great point. Imho that is Xperia's strength.....options.
My philosophy is that when you try and try to determine a camera system winner and can't, always default to the one with the 3.5mm jack. 😊
Same for me. Headphone jack and microSD card slot on smartphones are still relevant in 2023. Smart people don't spend more money on something that ends up making their life more difficult.
Yep that's why I'm considering buying it
@@FAT8893Learned that the hard way when trying to use microphone with a dongle. It doesn't work at all.
Am here for Sony results no doubt
Same bro
R the
I think having more control over the processing would be the next level. Being able to control the level of sharpening and noise reduction, maybe tweaking the picture profiles etc, ESPECIALLY for video
That's what I love about the Sony phone. If you are into manual mode, it's an absolute beast.
WE USED TO HAVE THIS! I was going crazy trying to show folks on classic HTC that we could adjust the processing settings, and people just kinda shrugged it. Now, we can KIND OF do some adjusting on Samsung, but it's not quite the same. I REALLY want that on Vivo.
@@FAT8893would have been nice if you could create your own Luts
@@SomeGadgetGuy HTC is/was the 👑
Sony! Love my Xperia 1 V. Such an upgrade from my Xperia 1 II. The new Exmor T sensor is amazing and the phone feels so polished and light, compared to the 1" camera sensor bulge. Hold the phone for long in your hands and you'll appreciate Sony's light and compact design. I also much prefer Xperia night photos. That's how the night looks like, not like over processed day like photos common in other brands' phones.
sounds fantastic. I also have the Xperia 1 mark ii. I will also be upgrading soon.
Having small standard interchangeable lens/filters that thread onto phone cameras would pretty much eliminate a lot of need for mid range mirrorless kits. Would love to see it.
I want that SO BAD. I know we have issues with putting lenses on small bodies, but just getting FILTERS on the xiaomi now is a HUGE difference in how I shoot on a phone. Just having a CPL and ND options... Just damn... It's so good...
I started with comments to say this
@@SomeGadgetGuySony Xperia really need to bring macro photography capabilities 😢
Yeap. M4/3 mount on a phone would be game changing.
Actually Xiaomi did that on 12S Ultra Concept. They took out the original lens cover, modified it somehow, then put a Leica M lens on it. Not for anyone tho, because the price is unimaginable.
The Xiomi is really nice, but I tend to like how Sony renders pictures more often. And that headphone jack comes in so clutch sometimes! I do hope Sony doesnt start leaning too much into heavy processing /AI photography in the future. 🍎, SS n Google seem to on a path where they are just going to have AI generate pictures for people eventually. I wonder how the phone camera tech will do once/if that happens. Fine, you convinced me to go for the X 1V
That's why Google cameras are getting worse
@@The-Heart-Will-Testify exactly.
Excellent and informative content, this answered a lot of my questions!
I realy wanna see Sony put the same sensor from the main into the ultrawide, since I'm more into videography. I still use my Huawei P40 Pro for my videos, wich still have one of the biggest ultrawide sensors build in, only the oppo find X6 pro got the same sensor size 3 years later. Its frustrating to me how less the Smartphone companys care about the ultrawide cam.
Today I found out about your channel while searching for Xperia 1V reviews and I'm hooked! This is the third video on a row that I watched since I found your channel. Subscribed right away. You are doing amazing in depth reviews along with the full depth voice. 😅
Great review for both phones👏🏻🎉 Keep up that man🙂
I like your style of review more than most and more popular tech reviewer.
We have fun 😎
I really enjoyed this review (even though I don't own a premium phone) to me its so clear what you are saying. I have been inspired by you recently so on my last holiday i tried to use a few more features within my mid range phone and really enjoyed this experience, i definitely want to check out your book but would you ever think about doing a very basic video on this subject? sincerely a older average camera user noob
U dint need to spend 1400 unless it has everything u want (except ultra charging speed), u got nice camera, nice display, jack audio, microsd and 5000ma battery sooo u can be happy for at least 3 years, I've being changing my cellphone every 2 or 3 years but always looking for that phone that has everything
Seño Juan you have come a long way,from back in the days. Very proud of you,here's a dumbs up.
I just got my Xperia 1 V from HK.. It's a pretty good phone, beautiful design too I'm still trying to get used to the camera UI and the photography experience though lol. Coming from a Samsung. Your reviews help a lot though, thanks!
how are you liking the phone so far mate? I'm thinking of getting one.
@@itsnotfunny8257 Well it's been a while. I still love it, but not for the $1400 sticker price I got it for haha. If you manage to find it for 1000 or less then that would be a great deal. Phone has a couple bugs sometimes but overall it's fine, switching from the Samsung ecosystem was a tough move but I'm glad I finally broke free from that. Battery life is still decent and cameras are great. Not much else to say, Haven't experienced overheating or fingerprint sensor issues either. But as of right now I'd recommend the S24 Ultra over this because of motioncam support in s24u. Sony firmware is so locked down sometimes that you just can't shoot good video on third party apps sometimes. Plus the telephoto is lackluster on the Sony imo and both the telephoto and ultrawide perform poorly in lowlight. I have zero complaints for the main lens as it is excellent in low light as well. RAW photos come out great with far more detail than a processed jpeg.
Thanks for answering my last comment by producing this amazing video! you are the greatest in this field showing those two camera beasts in such a professional way. ❤🎉
thanks.
Oooh I'm here for the premier
Fantastic stuff mate 👍Awesome reviews😎
I grabbed a sony xperia 1 V literally 5 days ago and so far I am super satisfied with the pictures it takes. When I take pictures I never just point and shoot, I always mess with the exposure and such and the sony finally gives me some of the camera like control that i have been wanting.
Sony should be RIGHT up your alley 😊
OMG...I was literally spilling my coffee at 2:30 while laughing my a** off....but you always nail it, still love your videos not poking on specs but looking into how each of the phones can fulfill your personal needs!! Awesome! I personally love the 1V, which I have since two days, it is just the perfect phone for ME! ;)
Sony is always one of my faves, but getting better chip from Qualcomm, it's a MONSTER option this year.
I hope the ultra wide and Tele lens use new sensor like main camera. That main camera is soo good. I think mark 6 gonna use it
I really appreciate your unbiased and fair style of comparisons, highlighting the strengths of each device.
Off topic, but what are your thoughts on Asus' Zenfone range?
I like Asus a LOT, but I don't get to spend as much time with their gear.
I use a Mi 11 Ultra to shoot almost everything on my channel along with the MCPro24fps for video, i really recommend this app, tons and tons of customization, bitrate up to 200mbps or more depending of the phone, i often use the 50MP mode not for the resolution but it seems to have a lot less processing so i like the pictures better, I'd really like phone manufacters to bring back SD card support
It's shocking to me that Sony is the last game in town for SD cards...
@@SomeGadgetGuy Imagine having super important footage recorded on the internal storage then you drop the phone and it doesn't turn on anymore
@@MathieuTechMoto And yet some people always say that microSD card is "outdated" and "irrelevant". You can't get all your files transferred to cloud storage fast enough ffs! 🤦♂️🤦♂️
I've had a love hate relationship with Sony Xperias but,i think I'm falling in love with the 1V😍
I feel Samsung owes the WHOLE android community an apology for the SD888 and 8Gen1. A LOT of our boutique phones would have been more consistent performers.
Great review! But what about low light indoor video? Are they pretty similar or does one have a definite advantage over the other?
Amazingly comprehensive comparison as always. I'm definitely more of a Sony guy - video centric, needing better pro controls. 😊
And that auto focus... 🤩
Very nice comparison! Besides.... You were the only one on the whole planet who even mentioned that the Xperia 1V now has 2 stage stabilization - Standard and high quality. (mark v vs mark IV comparison). Couldn't read that in any website, although it's a critical information 👍👍👍.
Is the EIS stabilization on the Mark V sufficient in 4k@60?
It's "good", but it doesn't have quite the same float as some other options. Still, it's WAY better than nothing, and a big step up from the 1IV.
@@SomeGadgetGuy thank you so much for your update. I have the IV here for testing purposes (deciding to buy Mark V) and 4k@60 is really a mess unstablized. Especially when you want to make a slow mo from 60 to 30 or 24fps. Waiting for the moment someones making a stabilization comparison of these 2. Thx mate 👍😊
The Xperia 1 V is an amazing phone.
The only thing I'm concerned about it reception being inconsistent compared to my previous phones. I thought sony would have sorted this out by now
Light bulb shot on Sony looks really good.
It really does.
I will probably get it depending on things as work, but putting my money where my mouth is for that Sony Xperia 1 V
You're gonna dig it.
@@SomeGadgetGuy oh I know I will! Loved my Xperia 5 II but you know money hahaha, just going to see if that freelance job plays out or not, if so then one that Xperia and 2 a trip to Scotland for a video! Gotta play around with it and take a lot of images!
Finally Cameras with Smartphone features...
You love to see it.
Amazing! Thanks JCB!
Great review
It's funny because I got a pixel 7a just to try a pixel for once and the one thing I don't like about the camera is how much contrast it applies on a subject in a low light situation. I went into my photo editor just to make sure I wasn't crazy and I was right. Lol
Maybe it comes from years of using LG and Sony, but the 7a's camera is still good. I just wish I could use the full resolution of the sensor, but I still have my v60 for that. And shockingly when I expected the 7a to be a good improvement the v60 still hangs. Sure there's still the ghosting issue on bright subjects, but I've been able to just edit those away pretty effectively.
Oh you know how I feel about that V60.
I think the issue google will increasingly run into, their app and process REALLY favors that point and shoot style. The second you want to push the shot, it can be MORE difficult working their sliders and options than just having proper camera tools.
So we can add a better sensor to a pixel, but we might face diminishing returns on those images really looking better if they're processed like the smaller sensor pixels.
We just have to hope we dont see the output get worse like Apple seems to deliver after upgrading sensor size on the 13 and 14 pros.
@@SomeGadgetGuy oh believe me as someone that witnessed tech reviewers blow smoke up people's butts about just how good the iPhone 12 to 13 pro Max's night video was just for me to test it myself and have it be a smeary, lens reflecting mess at a choppy 30fps I know it's never just the hardware. Lol it's baffling to me how apple people will just take that.
I'll definitely have to get used to how the pixel shoots more. At least I'm still kitted with a 1 III and v60 for when I may want to go a bit harder.
It's ironic that you mentioned it. I have a Huawei P30 Pro that was designed with Leica 📸. I now use my S23U primarily (except for easy long exposure shots like waterfalls). I've been thinking about the possibility of collaborations with Nikon, Canon, & or Lumix for over a year or so. Funny to hear someone else say it "out loud" 😁👍. Great videos BTW 😃👍.
would love to see the performance of Huawei's RYYB sensor, which is smaller than any other sensors.
Having a hard time deciding....my current phone is lg v60thinq. Ive always been an LG person. My question, is it worth it to leave the v60 behind for the sony? 😫
great comparison which phone produces "better" DNG raw files that I can process in PhotoShop?
THIS!
Smartphones are so good these days that they're able to differentiate themselves. As long as it does what it's advertised for, I'm happy with it
The SONY gets my preference though, for the camera and the overall package.
Loved the lil' LG plug in the beginning of the vid. ;-) Forever LG phone fan here, too.
Very nice perspective.I hope for Sony to sell and grow in the smartphone business and this can be a good start.
The nice thing is, their phone division is still profitable, and we know they'll likely continue making phones for at least the next two years.
Maybe I've grown old a little bit but the smartphone market seems to me a little bit boring nowadays.I miss HTC and LG and I don't want to miss Sony too.Keep up the excellent work!
Love both these devices
we usually just do the sensor size/ pixel count to estimate the pixel size, but there's some dead space for electronics that we ignored. now if we want to compare with the new sensor on the xperia, that actually has to be accounted for.
Hello Juan, can the Xperia switch lens to zoom while recording ? like you want to track a subject that goes away from you, also thank you for the great content !
At 30fps yes.
Thank you !@@SomeGadgetGuy
This man is spot on with his reviews 🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟
Thanks mate 👍
I have two questions.
1. about 4k60fps Dolby vision recording, how's the overheating?
Is there a case where the recording is stopped because of the overheat?
maybe I'll use it for more than an hour at a time.
2. Is there a way to adjust the audio collection level in the video pro mode?
In the Galaxy S Pro video mode, the microphone volume was adjusted.
I got the Sony Xperia 1 V and I'm loving it. I'm learning more about photography while I'm using it.
Sony is GREAT for that 👍
I loved my Xperia 1v
I have never regretted buying it
The camera is on another level
Lucky you. That'll be my next phone if I have enough budget.
I'M LOVING THIS PHONE !!!
I have previously used a Kase brand lens kit with my old Huawei P20 Pro and the lenses were very good as well as having the option to use screw on filters with most of the lenses. I know now my Xiaomi 13 Pro is as good if not better than those lenses but I do miss the option to use ND filters on my phone now. I know Kase do a magnetic filter kit but their site is not really very helpful with fitments of their magnetic mounts. Fotogear seem to do a phone case which actually allows 58mm threaded filters to be used with its own magnetic mounts. I feel a purchase may be in my future...
Nice test 💪 1V is staggering machine. Just started tests couple days ago... O_O HDR in video is 2-3 times better than in photos..
Will you also make a one hour Sony Xperia 1 v camera deep dive? Like with the Xiaomi 13 ultra?
Wonderful review.
13 Ultra camera kit allows you to screw on 67mm linear polarizer to take those clear fish images underwater or reduce light reflection shots of object behind glass. Btw the filter size of 67mm is identical to my Canon APSC lenses. You can even screw on a ND filter for bright snowy landscapes.
Can you use a circular polarizer? This would be an instant selling point for serious photographers.
I just seen this experia low light video in HDR HLG and i am stunned what this phone can do .😳
It really is a big jump for the XPERIA. Very fun to play with.
Juan... Do you have a relationship with Asus? I would love to see you get a chance to tool around with the ZenFone 10 when it comes out this year. The last small flagship, one of the last phones with the headphone jack.
There's a lot reasons to be excited although the software support has been a problem
What about Sony's Xperia 5 line? But yeah, it would be cool to hear Juan's thoughts on the Zenfone 10.
İ just thought like you and bought Xperia 5V for compact and powerful device
Know what else the phones bring to the table compared to an MFT Lumix? An actually functioning video autofocus.
Sorry, couldn't resist.
The Exmor T is pretty interesting. It would be awesome if they bring it to ILCs soon.
We need more phones with better camera systems with better 4G & 5G band coverage in the US. Trying out the Xiaomi 13 Ultra for photography sounds fun, but I still need it to function as a phone and internet device...
The only feature "missing" from these phones, for me, is a dedicated monochrome sensor. But not sure if folks would be interested in that.
Now that some brands are experimenting with custom colour array, I'm not sure if we're going to see native monochrome sensor back again.
Would getting the Xperia and an iphone cover all bases? And please can you make a video on how iphone photography is
As a s23 ultra owner I respect the Sony
So how is the low light and HDR on the Xperia 1 v different to the Pro I?
It has a similar sized sensor, with more sensor area due to the new tech, and x4 the number of pixes which are binned to the same 12Mb.
So it should be a stop better.
However the Pro I gets the changeable aperture on the main sensor like the Xiaomi.
Currenly the Pro I is discounted heavily in some markets, making it a dimmer screened bargin?
There are rumours abour 2nd gen Pro-I coming early 2024. Until that happens, you might want to try finding out a bargan 1st gen Pro-I despite the rather inefficient SoC.
Very interesting but difficult to follow the photos and know which phone it is for the samples.
I'd like to see you shoot a vlog using both these phones utilizing a Rodes Wireless Go II setup. Don't disclose till the end which part was filmed using which camera. Let your viewers try and figure it out.
Did you try the Asus Zenfone flip smartphones?
Although I use to dabble in camera photography in the past (before smartphones), these days, I find that I like to just use the point-and-shoot auto function. Sometimes it is more important to "capture the moment" then get the perfect picture. I find when I try to use the camera UI to fiddle with the settings, THEN take the photo, the moment may have passed. Now I just take a second to compose the shot, then just hope AUTO works. My current phone is a Huawei P30 Pro and I love the 5X zoom and don't want to give it up. (I have alot of photos taken from an airplane, even caught a fighter jet zooming past once) If it wasnt for the battery starting to get old and the BS US anti-competition measures making me stuck at Android 10, I might hold on to the phone longer. I absolutely agree, these two phones are a bit overkill, HOWEVER, if I look at available phones with 5X zoom, there aren't allot and those phones cost about the same. Mid range phones don't have zoom. The S23 has a 3X and 10X which isnt ideal and I find samsung photos don't look very natural. The new Pixel 8 Pro has 5X and I like google's processing more but I don't like the Tensor chip as it tends to overheat. Plus the phone is $1000. As for your comparison, I might lean towards the Xiaomi more, however the main issue is Xiaomi isnt designed for the US bands. 4G LTE coverage might be decent. 5G coverage is poor. I don't know about the AUTO/BASIC on Sony. On one hand, if Sony can get me a clean photo, at least I can work with it with post processing. However, if a phone can give me "good enough" photos where I don't bother, it's even easier.
I shoot long duration time lapse at sea (I put the phone in a custom, sealed box). Gcam has been my go to app. How do these deal with wide angle time lapse? Can you adjust the interval to more than the Gcam 120x (1 shot every 4 seconds)? I have been very keen on the Sony but the 8k Xiaomi would be interesting.
TIA
❤ your reviews, what do you think 🤔 about the Moto ThinkPhone?
It looks cool. My schedule has been crazy. I really wanted to pick one up.
What's the video editing app at 00:56? 🤔
Great video! I hope someone can aswer my question.
Does the Sony Xperia 1 V have a manual switch for activating "endurance mode" ?
So I can use it with Mcpro24fps or Filmic Pro.
So without turning on Bluetooth or connect a device.
I hope there will be a comparison video between these video apps and the Sony Video Pro app..
Because it can make the Sony Xperia 1 V experience even better!
Turn on flight mode you mean?
@@bloodytoad2010
Hi!,
"Endurance mode" is a Sony special performance mode for recording longer videos or shooting pictures for a longer time with the Photo app.
On the Xperia 1 Mark IV and 5 Mark IV this option could only be enabled with 2 Sony accessories:
The Sony GP-VPT2BT Bluetooth vlogging grip and a Sony Bluetooth camera remote control.
If Endurance mode is on the phone can get really hot.
So the problem on the Mark IV is that it only could be enabled on the Sony photo and video apps in combination with an official Sony accessory.
Now I saw a video where they mentioned it was no longer needed for the Xperia 1 Mark V.
If it can be enabled manually I can use it for other brand Gimbals and video apps.
Endurance mode in combination with the new Snapdragon 8 Gen 2 will make this phone a recording beast. And with the possibility to enable it manually it will open new possibilities with other great camera apps!
Nice, let's see XiaoMi 13 Ultra vs Xperia Pro-i, which has the same sensor size.
As the owner of a Lumix G9...
Great comparison! What do I think would take mobile photography to the next step? Well, all the focus seems to be on the back cameras. I love on the Philippines and while I was a semi pro photographer most of my life, it's different here. I have a Canon DSLR system that I hardly ever use here and I find myself capturing "moments" most often, and the best camera is the one you have with you (your smartphone). The Philippines is also the selfie capital of the world where group selfies are very important. The rinky dinky front cameras on most all smartphones are a bit to be desired for that task to say the least! I have an old Vivo V17 Pro with the dual popup lenses and flash. One is a 30MPixel standard and also an ultra wide. It does the job well. I also have an awesome Xperia Zenfone 8 Flip that literally flips the 3 main cameras to the front for high quality standard, telephoto and super wide capabilities. Unfortunately the Zenfone 8 Flip up and died on me, so it's back to the Vivo V17 Pro. Anyway, please! Will some phone manufacturer offer a phone that has versatile and high grade front cameras???
I LOVED those experiments, but these new cameras are getting so large, I doubt we'd be able to make good durable flipping mechanisms at reasonable prices. At this point, it think it would just be cheaper and easier to put small ticker displays on the backs of our phones. Like the Mi 11 Ultra, or even that dual screen nubia.
That said, with SO much camera glass on the back of a phone, it's REALLY easy getting a feel for taking a rear camera selfie 😁
Wow that's really a big difference at 11:34, can you achieve the same with Sony somehow? Like maybe manually stacking images or using third-party camera app?
Oh yeah! Taking a bracket or using a tripod. The Sony is a champ.
Great point on 'point and shoot'. Iphone and Samsung focus too much on this area - when the quality of a good sensor really shines on actual photography.
Obviously the most lacking area for the Ultra phones is the telephoto or zoom cameras. What is stopping them installing a fat beefy sensor (at least the yesteryears top main sensor - ie 50 MPx 1ˇ/1.31'') for telephoto. It is not like phones are to small or the users finding the camera tumor objectionable.
Overall price is one consideration. But yeah, I remembered Samsung put 48MP 1/2" sensor for the S20 Ultra's telephoto camera and I like it a lot.
It's tricky. The bigger a sensor we put in, the more it reduces the potential reach of a tele sensor unless we get REALLY exotic with our lens housing or have a REALLY big bulge out the back of a phone. For example, the SIZABLE difference between the tele sensors on the Galaxy Note and the Xiaomi, we get a BIGGER crop factor on the samsung, so it has a much longer equivalent zoom. That looks more impressive on paper. It ZOOMS more, even though photo IQ is a noticeable downgrade in all shooting situations.
For me, the balance is acceptable to get a solid 75-ish and 100-ish combo, and knowing those sensors are an order of magnitude better than the sensors we used to put in some of those fun classic point and shoot super zoom cameras. I lived my life out of Canon Powershots back in the day, and those had 5MP - 8MP 1/2.5" sensors.
@@FAT8893 Right. In this way S23U is hardware wise technically a downgrade. I think the future is something like what the Sony does ie 'zoom' but with a proper big sensor. I am personally not a fan of the 4+ lens game (as on the S23U I have). It should be 3 max, and all top tech at that - I mean these are the pinnacle of tech, they have been held back. The reason is milking the marketing cow and only upgrading a tiny bit to be just ahead of competition slightly.
How does the Xperia PRO-i complete with the V
The Xperia is missing a macro lens. Some system to put on or screw on filters e.g nd-filters. What reallly would be nice would be a built in nd-filter like the rx100 series has. Maybe the Pro-I II will deliver these features.
Honestly, do a 2X crop from the main sensor, and you'll often best the performance of an ultra-wide macro. Even on the Xiaomi, where the macro is decent, I can get about as close, but with better pixel level detail from a main sensor crop.
13:06 is this the same beach that iPhonedo also loves?
Got my Xperia 1V today. it,s a beast.
Nice video ❤❤❤
Thanks for the comparison Juan, my Xperia I V is slightly delayed 🙄
Awww I'm pulling for you. We know Sony ships in REALLY small batches. Like a fine whisky.
@@SomeGadgetGuysurprisingly good news, I've had an email from my network provider and said that the Xperia I V has arrived at the store this afternoon.
So can I try to collect after work.
I've just picked it up 😎
14:16 Sweet yellow Lamborghini! 💛 So after watching this the ultimate takeaway is that both are phenomenal, but you recommend the Xiaomi 13 Ultra for people who prefer pictures over videos. 🖼 For people who prefer videos over pictures, you recommend the Sony XPERIA 1 V. 🎥
Do you think it's worth upgrading from the 1iv to the 1v?
Yes
If you regularly run into the video thermal limits definitely less.
Which sim card did the Xiaomi work on? How was the coverage?
nano sim.....double
Own chinese version with EU Rom flash. No problems in Europe.
I am waiting for Xperia 5 though... I really like smaller sized phones.
Aperature diaphragms. Also some way of securing filters.
only if you mark the photos for which one comes from which phone camera...you just posted them side by side w/o any note...!
16:22 what's the name of the video editing app please
I'm only cutting on LumaFusion for mobile editing these days.
As a owner of 13 Ultra. Would you recommand using this HDR Stuff and AI. Or just stay to plain neutral.
I prefer the Sony, if mostly because of the camera layout being simple and sleek. In addition to its feature sets.
I dislike how extremely overstated the camera bumps on phone have become over the years.
Makes me truly appreciate LG V50 and Nokia 9 PureView's bumpless camera. They look so elegantly beautiful.
Beyond the cameras who else offers flat display, no notch, SD card, headphone jack, 4k OLED display. Flagships encompass more then a camera . Also if you know how to use the pro camera app Sony surpasses all smartphone cameras. Let it get some more updates. Sony is the real flagship this year. Oh and the 21:9 aspect ratio which I love. You can use it one handed and build quality is amazing
Thank for be very objective Juan. As much as I'm into phones, I'm not spending $1k. $600 USD max getting an old flagship.
Less / No depreciation and high end experience.
I think too many techies phrase this as a fashion flex, forgetting that people might need better tools to actually get work done. The sensor level performance of either of these phones is close enough to my mirrorless camera, that I can leave THOUSANDS of dollars of gear at home and pack lighter to do field work. Do you regularly walk around with a Lumix and three lenses?
I'm happy to get mobile camera tech like this at $1500-ish to streamline that mobile workflow.
Remember, we leave the "avuraj cunzoomer" conversations to those other tech review channels. We try to really use this stuff here. 😁
Love your videos bud very well said what if that was pro I lol..
One may choose Xiaomi, but in the US you'll get: proper carrier/band & warranty support. A more stock Android versus a kitchen sink skin. Sony having a dedicated camera and half press to focus button versus having to buy a separate photography kit.
I mean, headphone jack and memory card...
@@SomeGadgetGuy true. I'm more into photography than videos, but I always use my smartphone to record videos for my channel. 🤔
First but i think i watched this on patreon hahaha
I prewatched this as well on Phub
Love that silky smooth crispy 4K120FPS 😍Xperia. And that eye track autofocus looks promising! Neither called 'pro' got me, great call 😅
This is just what I was looking for, thank you for this great comparison!
