I love Sony because they keep the 3.5mm jack and sd card slot.. maybe I will stick with Sony forever. A lot of reviewers say this is the best Xperia made by Sony this makes me love sony more. 🤭
I also love xperia and I strongly agree it’s getting better but they also starting to remove some og features like the led notification light. That makes me sad and wonder, what could be next? Microsd slot? Headphone jack? ❤️🩹
I have pre-ordered the Sony on the basis that it generally won't overheat like last year's model. But Sony should really look at its environmental rating and guarantee more updates for this generation of phones, and onwards to increase lifespan.
I disagree, the target audience for this device are techies who upgrade their phone every year or 2. The people reading this post will not even keep their S23 for 5 years, the OS update guarantee is more of a marketing gimmick than anything.
@@thepatrioarchy Mobile phones are one of the most resource-intensive products by weight on the planet. The original point wasn't about producing phones for tech-savvy customers, it was purely about longevity and sustainability.
@@thepatrioarchyI used xperia xz1 for about 5 years and it completely suited me, now it’s been 1.5 years since 1iii and I don’t see any reason to update it at all, although I probably consider myself a techie, it’s just that 2 new generations have already come out, but there’s nothing that makes you go for a new device, it is not strikingly different from your device, and moreover, picking up xz1, I understand that this is still an excellent device, but the screen is not so beautiful, but not 120Hz, and a lot of little things, but with this you can live
I've been used this phone since III version, now I have IV version and I still love it, for me it is the perfect phone in special when you like the photography and videography, the camera color reproduction, these lens, that 21:9 4K HDR10 120Hz wide-screen, the sound quality (don't forget 35mm), no bugs, pure Android experience, the native photo and video apps, the stereo speakers and quality are insane to create a great audiovisual products but is true, no a lot people pay attention on this features so I guess that was the first problem why Sony doesn't scaled up the market of phones, for me this is the first high end Sony phone created to do that, probably I'll get one of them and to be honest I love a lot the heat problem was fixed, that was a great news about this phone series.
i love sony but i heard and seen test where xperia 1 V is realy slow to charge , still better than 5 IV . Plus 21:9 is a fun aspect ratio , its makes the phone realy sexy but in practice its kinda useless , i would prefer something more wide. SD card + jack is fantastic . I don't know , i will probably get the samsung
I have both phones s23 ultra and Xperia 1v I wanted to say something important The Xperia 1 v display highest brightness than s23 display in door when you watching movies or playing games only out door the s23 ultra a little higher Also the speakers in the Xperia clearer and more bass The most important thing for me, which makes me choose Xperia 1 v is the the weight and Comfortable in the hand iPhone 14 pro 206 gram Iphone 14 pro max 240 gram S23 ultra 234 gram Xperia 1 v 187 gram can't believe how sony it was able to put a 5000 battery and a 6.5 screen and found the space to put sd card slot and 3.5 jack !
and you dont have anyone from this 2 phone, you just dream, also you can use usb-c like 3.5mm slot.. so stupid things when all use wireless headphones , also memory card slot is waste of time and space on phone who have minimum 256gb space, i have more than 6000 videos and pictures, 400+ songs, 60 + aplication and have free 150gb on my s23 ultrA 256GB..

Sony won in most of the tests but the only thing I preferred on the Samsung was the color warmth of the camera, the sound of the front a rear cam, the pen, and the more premium look due to the squared-off design. But my next phone will be the Sony because I need my SD card slot. Can't give that up. I love my Note 20 Ultra and will hold onto it as long as possible but when upgrade time comes whoever has the SD card slot will get my money.

The vibration strength is piss poor meaning I often miss notifications, the torch is also piss poor (a candle can shine brighter than this thing) but the real killer is the 21:9 aspect ratio. I don't watch movies on my phone so the only content I watch is YT video's which 90% of them are 16:9 ratio. Which means if you're watching content the screensize is actually really small with vertical black bars at either side OR you can zoom in to fill the screen, but because it's true 21:9 it crops waay more of the picture than every other phone on the market does. Since the majority of media consumption I do on my phone is with 16:9 content it's really annoying to have a 21:9 phone.

@@juanpabloperez9063 that doesn't make a UI user-friendly. Otherwise, Google would have been the top seller. Sony's android one can't just match the smoothness and fluidity of One UI.
Few things making me consider selling my S23 Ultra 12GB/1TB for the Xperia 1 V 12GB/512GB is that the Sony doesnt have curved screen,has headphone jack,has expandable memory and slimmer profile. The 2 main things which made me not get the Sony is that Aftersales in Indonesia is non existant and it is super super super difficult to get Sony accessories.
@@d3r3x18 than explain to me how not having 3,5mm jack (not Sony it have fortunately), no expandable storage and narrower screen that suitable only for 21:9 video and smaller battery because of that helps user and making it modern ? If it had 18:9 screen with same length, 21:9 video would've been as good, but there will be much better 16:9 standard ratio experience. Thats why 18:9 is good, it give you best of both. Last phone that was good from ecery angle is Mate 20X, it only lacks of wireless charging.
this year Sony did it's best phone, all they needed were just minor improvements, design is better, very comfortable in the hands, and headphone jack saves you at least 100$ on headphones
Sony was always gonna win the gaming and apps section along with the screen quality being a mostly gaming centred company, tho I preference the Samsung's overall quality enhancements as I don't buy phones for gaming.
My big gripe about Sony is they tend to have issues and it’s the software support the price and since they aren’t that popular how much support will they get with accessories I rather stick to a phone that has support all the way around who know how long Sony will keep making phones
Lol they’ve been making phones for a long f**king time 😂 wdym? I had a Xperia when the iPhone 3 and 4 was around here we are and they’re still making phones. Their main money making is PlayStation so they’ll continue to make TVs, phones, Consoles, games, Audio peripherals and cameras forever. If anything they’ve made more money now than ever so I doubt they’ll just abandon their phones. This isn’t Microsoft Windows phone 🤮 The Xperias are gorgeous and better internals than the iPhone pro and Samsung galaxy lines. They just need to do better marketing them and better with software/support them for a longer period of time but again that’s because it’s a very niche product.
I went to best buy today and bought the s23 ultra. It's a good phone and has some pretty neat features. But I've been looking for a business phone alongside my iPhone 14 PM. I thought this phone would blow me away but it hasn't yet. Of course I can customize everything and do more stuff. However, my iPhone 14 PM is louder and even though the screen on the galaxy is amazing including the resolution. I would rather get the Sony Xperia. I couldn't pre order it last night because the site was down. So I went to the store and picked up an s23 just to check it out. They gave me 60 days to use it and I can return it and just pay a $45.00 restocking fee. But I'm going to switch because I went on 2 different WIFI's and the resolution was only capped at 480p every time, and I had to change it manually. If the phone can't do something that simple, I don't want to mess it with for any longer. Had the s23 for not even a full day and I'm going to return it in the morning.
In the long run you'd wish back on these comments. The 23U will only get better with updates. And if anything the 24U around the corner will be devilish
I love Sony phones very much, but unfortunately they are no longer available in our region. I still have old Sony phones such as Z3, Xperia go and others. Thank you for this wonderful comparison. Greetings
The main problem with Sony, is their updates. 2 years of major OS updates is just not an option for many. At this moment, Samsung wins hands down because of that. Buying a flagship smartphone is an investment, and loosing updates after ONLY 2 years is laughable for a 1400$ device. I have iPhone 11 series from 2019 and will receive updates until 2024, meanwhile Sony would give up on my device 2 years ago. This is a serious problem for many.
Android updates are not really necessary, the only necessary thing is security patches. All Google apps will update on it for 6-7 years, like gboard, messages, phone etc.
I love sony phones and their more natural looking photos but im not into complicated camera system and it’s too tall for my liking, especially some apps doesn’t support it. And im really sad that they let go the led notification light. That’s a big turnoff for me.
@@bloodytoad2010 that flashlight notification for me is ridiculous. Imagine you’re on a bus and your phone start flashing and someone on the other side thinks you’re taking pictures of them😅📸. We’re once ahead but now we’re going down the drain like everyone else in following apple’s dumb innovation 🔦
Looking at the LTPO display flickering on the Samsung. Now I know why Sony chose not to use LTPO even though they can. They rather sacrifice little more battery than making their phone display flicker like that . Also , love their speaker sound quality! This is a real powerhouse !
@@bloodytoad2010The Sony 1V is having reported auto brightness screen issues and screen lag and even ghost gesturing. Just look it up for yourself. Sony can always be relied on for software glitches and bugs. Hopefully an update can rectify these problems, but give me Samsung software any day.
Side-by-side, you can clearly see how wider mobile screen affects the size of everything you are viewing. The difference in the screen width here is barely a few millimeters, but the resulting picture looks almost 20% larger!
With the same ram and processors sony will always win because they are closer to android stock instead of the stupid Samsung overlay taking some of the power away. Sony is better in almost every way. I still have a One III. Ill probably be ready to upgrade by the time the VI comes. Hopefully it keeps minor or major improvements by then without losing in any area down the road, as sometimes happens from gen to gen.
Don't forget that Samsung boasted about a slightly overclocked version of the 8 Gen 2 in the S23 range. Looks like it didn't make much of a difference.
I personally prefer Sony coz it's design is always been unique, simple but elegant and the rest of the specs:) Thank you for your specs comparison Bro, it really helps us still deciding which brand to buy. God bless.
I love sony ❤. My first flagship was xperia s. And its still in sunning condition. After withdrawn sony from india now i am using s23 ultra. Sony return with greater specs and almost in the top. Hope sony will comeback in india with a mass entry.
Apparently Sony only offers 2 years of Android OS upgrades vs 4 years for Samsung. I film with a smartphone gimbal and I am concerned about the Sony side-mounted fingerprint reader. The gimbal clamp will likely cover the fingerprint reader, making it harder to unlock the phone in use
We live in Oregon USA and have AT&T and I have been with Samsung since S3 - have the S10 International Version which I use in USA and Thailand. It appears that my S9 from At&T pick up AT&T towers faster than S10. I do not want to give up the headphone jack or SD memory, so I must choose either Motorola or Sony. (Our 1st cellphone was Motorola bag phone) Question. Will the Sony Xperia 1 V international version work well in the USA on AT&T? Or should I only buy the USA version? Thank you for your help?
To be honest Sony is a very niche phone They are not a better pick than iphone nor samsung for beginners But still a very sweet enthusias phone that i am using right now Gotta say thank a lot to this phone i kinda slowly but surely improving my manual adjustment for photography I think i will be ready very soon to buy the sony nex7 camera very soon thanks to this sony phone A great companion tbh
Sony Xperia 1 v app speed test, display quality, camera sensors and speaker sound better than Samsung s23 ultra. Sony Xperia 1 v is now king of smartphone.❤💪👌 ... Thanks bro, this video is great 👍 👍👍👍👍......
Thank you..awesome review I would like to purchase the device through Amazon or the official Sony website Will you fill the phone as required in terms of updates?
Sony needs to get with the program and increase their years of support if they want to compete. I may not keep any phone long enough to worry about updates but it does have an effect on the resale value!
Watching this on my 1v. Have a fold 3 and chose this over the flip 5 as they haven't done enough to justify my getting it. Love the Sd cart slot though. Just getting used to a regular screen again. I do miss the real estate.
I've been using only Sony phones since 2005 (Walkman W550i) and been going from one model to another and now at 1 V. 19 years so far and they never let me down. But overall all top phones are great, but Xperia 1 V is much better for pro photographers and videographers especially for using the 1V natively as a pro monitor and recorder for my Sony alpha cameras when it's raining or dusty vs pro monitors that are exposed and not water/weather resistant.
Sony has better speakers Sony launches App faster Sony has 🎧 port and memory card Sony is more durable Sony tends to age like a fine wine Samsung for camera and s-pen and software and availability and good after sales service
I already own a 1 V, but I am gonna buy an S23 Ultra. You get 1% hardware boost and an awful AI/software support with 40% price increase. Now all we need is people who actually buy Sony's product cause they are dying in the phone market industry, 0% revenue as a matter of fact. So thank you for supporting Sony!
@7:08 what are you saying about the speakers here? The Sony has 2 front facing speakers, where are they? Is the Galaxy's speakers on the bottom and through the earpiece speaker?
Agreed, 1% hardware boost and an awful software support with 40% price increase. Our money is on Sony! Now all we need is folks who actually care and buy their product. The last time I checked, they were about 0% revenue in the phone market industry.
Spen nails it for me. I am a heavy spen user and that is what differentiates samsung from Sony. Sure sd card would be nice but I paid for TB, so covered. And plan to keep for 5 years with security update
I love sony phones ive had 4 Xperias im on 1iii at the moment but im going to try and afford the 1v.i love sony 3.5 mm headphone jack and the SD card,just think sony phones are best quality build.
why does one screen (the samsung) have a noticeable flickering and the sony doesn't? is that somerhing about the screen tech? really appreciate your videos btw!
yeah it's not visible like that in person (only on camera), but has something to do with how Samsung refreshes their screens. still better to not have as much flickering regardless of whether it's visible to the human eye, though.
It's because Samsung uses PWM dimming to lower brightness. The only issue about PWM is that some people might feel headache while using the phone at night due to the flicker. Many other new phones uses a better tech called DC dimming. In Sony, the panel uses a hybrid PWM+DC dimming so no flicker issue.
As for the battery life test, the Sony Xperia has a much higher bitrate (more data is processing so more battery is gonna drain) on the Samsung Galaxy the higher bitrate Option has to be activated in the settings. Was it activated?
I've Bought Xperia 1 V tested 4 phones IPhone 15 Max Pro, Galaxy S23 Ultra Pixel 7 Pro n Xperia 1 V... I'm not regretting my decision it's way underrated phone...
SD Card. Easy to remove dual SIM tray, headphone jack. I'd choose all of these over an S-Pen.
SO true.
yep totally agree
True
And it boot faster than Samsung because of less bloatware being the stock android
If we mashed these phones together with some additional Google AI goodness, remove the Samsung Bloatware. We could have the perfect phone.

@@92OnTV It's amazing how someone not into tech like you talks about features...
@@d3r3x18 than explain to me how not having 3,5mm jack (not Sony it have fortunately), no expandable storage and narrower screen that suitable only for 21:9 video and smaller battery because of that helps user and making it modern ?
If it had 18:9 screen with same length, 21:9 video would've been as good, but there will be much better 16:9 standard ratio experience. Thats why 18:9 is good, it give you best of both. Last phone that was good from ecery angle is Mate 20X, it only lacks of wireless charging.
I love Sony phone, but in India I really miss Sony phone, Still I have using SONY XPERIA R1 PLUS... ONCE SONY USER ALWAYS SONY USER....
I've seen so many Indians commenters in the same situation. hope they return there one day.
sony xperia phones left in india for i dont even know why. I would blindly get a sony device than any shitsung
Sony fans.... assemble
Sony definitely has the better performance. I'm happy to own a Xperia 1 series phone.
this year Sony did it's best phone, all they needed were just minor improvements, design is better, very comfortable in the hands, and headphone jack saves you at least 100$ on headphones
Bro Seriously buy the B&O H95, Awesome sound
It's the thing of I have spent way more on wired earbuds then id ever spend on wireless
Xperia 1 mark V king smartphone 2023
Sony was always gonna win the gaming and apps section along with the screen quality being a mostly gaming centred company, tho I preference the Samsung's overall quality enhancements as I don't buy phones for gaming.
Just having 4k doesn't make them have better screen quality
They do thi
I think both of these phones are better than iphones. Lol
They are😂
Iphone saving AI for Iphone 20 pro max 😂😂😂
Why thinks? It is 😂
@@famousvideos3626 tbb ai is kinda gimmicky and useless rn
LOL!
sony is great phone with bad marketing policy
Or in better words they don't give a f*** which is cool af.
and not long enough software support
@@Itsyesfahad😂That’s it!
Sony Mobile is losing market share globally, particularly in India. Otherwise personnely i like sony design.
Brilliant review. My 1 V arrives in the morning. 👍
My big gripe about Sony is they tend to have issues and it’s the software support the price and since they aren’t that popular how much support will they get with accessories I rather stick to a phone that has support all the way around who know how long Sony will keep making phones
Lol they’ve been making phones for a long f**king time 😂 wdym?
I had a Xperia when the iPhone 3 and 4 was around
here we are and they’re still making phones.
Their main money making is PlayStation so they’ll continue to make TVs, phones, Consoles, games, Audio peripherals and cameras forever. If anything they’ve made more money now than ever so I doubt they’ll just abandon their phones.
This isn’t Microsoft Windows phone 🤮
The Xperias are gorgeous and better internals than the iPhone pro and Samsung galaxy lines.
They just need to do better marketing them and better with software/support them for a longer period of time but again that’s because it’s a very niche product.
@@JoeyBK_86 lg has been making phones and so much for a long time as well never say never at any time any manufacturer could call it quits.
And Sony also make Bluetooth headphones too and wired headphones
I went to best buy today and bought the s23 ultra. It's a good phone and has some pretty neat features. But I've been looking for a business phone alongside my iPhone 14 PM. I thought this phone would blow me away but it hasn't yet. Of course I can customize everything and do more stuff. However, my iPhone 14 PM is louder and even though the screen on the galaxy is amazing including the resolution. I would rather get the Sony Xperia. I couldn't pre order it last night because the site was down. So I went to the store and picked up an s23 just to check it out. They gave me 60 days to use it and I can return it and just pay a $45.00 restocking fee. But I'm going to switch because I went on 2 different WIFI's and the resolution was only capped at 480p every time, and I had to change it manually. If the phone can't do something that simple, I don't want to mess it with for any longer. Had the s23 for not even a full day and I'm going to return it in the morning.
In the long run you'd wish back on these comments. The 23U will only get better with updates. And if anything the 24U around the corner will be devilish
I love Sony phones very much, but unfortunately they are no longer available in our region. I still have old Sony phones such as Z3, Xperia go and others. Thank you for this wonderful comparison. Greetings
Yeah me too..
I love sony phones, such as
R1 plus , xperia 1 iii, xperia S, xperia U etc
Ви можете їх замовити через країни, де вони офіційно є в продажу.
@@DoubleMusician Це було б дуже дорого, на жаль
Sony needs to sell the phone globally. I was lucky because we have importers from Hong Kong
@@RamlyJer I am lucky too..
I buy things from ebay..
I am indian and sony stopped selling their phones in india ..
Glad to see you back❤🎉
Xperia ❣️
Camera keeps natural colours. Beast of cameras.
I pre-ordered the Xperia 1 mark V in silver 😊
The main problem with Sony, is their updates. 2 years of major OS updates is just not an option for many. At this moment, Samsung wins hands down because of that. Buying a flagship smartphone is an investment, and loosing updates after ONLY 2 years is laughable for a 1400$ device. I have iPhone 11 series from 2019 and will receive updates until 2024, meanwhile Sony would give up on my device 2 years ago. This is a serious problem for many.
Yes. .
But custom roms will arrive soon..
Android updates are overrated. My xperia 5 still running smoothly on xperia 5 with android 11.
@@bloodytoad2010 😄✨👌👍🏻
Nicee...
Android updates are not really necessary, the only necessary thing is security patches. All Google apps will update on it for 6-7 years, like gboard, messages, phone etc.
@@DimaKirivel yeah...
That's the thing
I love sony phones and their more natural looking photos but im not into complicated camera system and it’s too tall for my liking, especially some apps doesn’t support it. And im really sad that they let go the led notification light. That’s a big turnoff for me.
All valid points, but I will add that they also have the traditional auto camera modes available. Not the best, but still pretty good.
Android 14 will be able to customize your camera LED as well as display to indicate new message. I guess Sony knew that and saved on it.
@@bloodytoad2010 that flashlight notification for me is ridiculous. Imagine you’re on a bus and your phone start flashing and someone on the other side thinks you’re taking pictures of them😅📸. We’re once ahead but now we’re going down the drain like everyone else in following apple’s dumb innovation 🔦
@@juanstate Haha we shall see how android 14 deal with it. They might even let you program to lit only a pinchful of small round pixels.
It's too narrow but the Samsung is taller lol
11:33 OMG you have no idea how much I wanted to know this, your like the only one who test this
Thank you so much
I prefer the Sony btw
glad to help, and same here!
Sony UI is lighter as compared to one UI that's why some basic apps are loading faster in sony
Really the Sony is the big boss for most of electronics. Not only mobile.. 👌🏻👌🏻🌹🌹🌹🌹
Sony 💪
Looking at the LTPO display flickering on the Samsung. Now I know why Sony chose not to use LTPO even though they can. They rather sacrifice little more battery than making their phone display flicker like that . Also , love their speaker sound quality!
This is a real powerhouse !
That wouldn't be obvious to the naked eye. You noticed it because it was recorded
@@hazza_007 yes I know wouldn't it be for the naked eye but I guess sony still do not want flickering to happen even on a video.
@@hazza_007 PWM eye fatigue is an issue, especially on Samsung phones, I'm not sure about the extent on Sony phones though.
@@bloodytoad2010The Sony 1V is having reported auto brightness screen issues and screen lag and even ghost gesturing. Just look it up for yourself. Sony can always be relied on for software glitches and bugs. Hopefully an update can rectify these problems, but give me Samsung software any day.

The 1V will be my 4th Sony. I keep each for 3 years, Sony phones are built to last. O ya and also the headphone jack.
Side-by-side, you can clearly see how wider mobile screen affects the size of everything you are viewing. The difference in the screen width here is barely a few millimeters, but the resulting picture looks almost 20% larger!
With the same ram and processors sony will always win because they are closer to android stock instead of the stupid Samsung overlay taking some of the power away.
Sony is better in almost every way. I still have a One III. Ill probably be ready to upgrade by the time the VI comes. Hopefully it keeps minor or major improvements by then without losing in any area down the road, as sometimes happens from gen to gen.
Yes very true
Don't forget that Samsung boasted about a slightly overclocked version of the 8 Gen 2 in the S23 range. Looks like it didn't make much of a difference.
@@funkam0nkey Yes. if it really boosted the clocking and still lost to Sony... WOW SONY
How does it feel to be ghosted after 2 years of software support?
@@xxyyxx2861 hasn't made any real difference to me. Phones still work fine.
I will choose Sony Xperia 1 V for sure, no Samsung, no iPhone, no Chinese phones, no Pixels.....
Me Too ❤Sony , 2 Brands Riping off peoples and one Communist Crap
I personally prefer Sony coz it's design is always been unique, simple but elegant and the rest of the specs:) Thank you for your specs comparison Bro, it really helps us still deciding which brand to buy. God bless.
Sony has the Music Quality & Clarity.....
AND I am a Sony One😋
Sony Xperia ❤❤❤👍👍👍👍👍
I just bought an xperia 5 ii for about 160$ used... Best deal i've made so far !
wow that's a great deal!
I love sony ❤. My first flagship was xperia s. And its still in sunning condition. After withdrawn sony from india now i am using s23 ultra. Sony return with greater specs and almost in the top. Hope sony will comeback in india with a mass entry.
have read many comments from those in the same situation as you. S23 Ultra is still a great phone, but I do hope Sony returns to India one day.
Man hình của sony đẹp thật
The Galaxy made in Vietnam, not India
@@vongtaing6059and?
Apparently Sony only offers 2 years of Android OS upgrades vs 4 years for Samsung. I film with a smartphone gimbal and I am concerned about the Sony side-mounted fingerprint reader. The gimbal clamp will likely cover the fingerprint reader, making it harder to unlock the phone in use
yeah that's true it'd be tougher to unlock, though if you already have the screen on then it wouldn't matter.
Watching your videos from last 10 years.. You are true sony fan boy😊
That's awesome, thanks for sticking around this long!
Thank you for a real in depth review of both products it gives people a chance to see them side by side and compare.
Sonny sounds better
currently have sony 1 mark 3 still love it ❤
The Xperia 1V was built for enthusiasts who like to have manual control in both media devolopment and consumption
We live in Oregon USA and have AT&T and I have been with Samsung since S3 - have the S10 International Version which I use in USA and Thailand. It appears that my S9 from At&T pick up AT&T towers faster than S10. I do not want to give up the headphone jack or SD memory, so I must choose either Motorola or Sony. (Our 1st cellphone was Motorola bag phone)
Question. Will the Sony Xperia 1 V international version work well in the USA on AT&T? Or should I only buy the USA version?
Thank you for your help?
Just to let you know, the Sony's back is also glass, its just textured, and it feels AMAZING and grippy! Sony over the Samsung ANY DAY OF THE WEEK!
I love my Sony Xperia 1V its the best smartphone purchase ive ever made.
Love Sony phones...can connect with your dslr as a external monitor love it
Sony all over
Samsung.😍
My all time.😍
favourite sony
Sony camera way more natural
i gotta be honest, i lovo how narrow and tall the xperia is, having more screen readability in my apps is cool
Best Comparison Video On UA-cam ❤
SONY ❤️ 🇯🇵 👍 🥇 🏆 👑
0:39 Did you do this on purpose??It hurts to look at it
Sony is always the best. I have Xperia1. Its the first phone from this generation but i still using it. No problem
Funny, long ago I had a Xperia Neo V, used to love that thing
The king is coming Xperia 1V 👑
that slim design is already a winner in my book, perfectly one handable
To be honest
Sony is a very niche phone
They are not a better pick than iphone nor samsung for beginners
But still a very sweet enthusias phone that i am using right now
Gotta say thank a lot to this phone i kinda slowly but surely improving my manual adjustment for photography
I think i will be ready very soon to buy the sony nex7 camera very soon thanks to this sony phone
A great companion tbh
Thanks for the comparison, I always like to watch your videos :)
Sony experia 1mark V Forever ❤
Sony Xperia 1 v app speed test, display quality, camera sensors and speaker sound better than Samsung s23 ultra. Sony Xperia 1 v is now king of smartphone.❤💪👌 ...
Thanks bro, this video is great 👍 👍👍👍👍......
Sony does not produce OLED. The 1v display was made by Samsung.
As usual, amazing video!
Thank you..awesome review I would like to purchase the device through Amazon or the official Sony website Will you fill the phone as required in terms of updates?
I live in Saudi Arabia
Sony needs to get with the program and increase their years of support if they want to compete. I may not keep any phone long enough to worry about updates but it does have an effect on the resale value!
very good point about the resale value
i heard that sony announced they don't want to compete on the mobile phones because their focus is on cameras.
Sony ❤ I use Xperia 5 II. Now I want to upgrade to this one. But in Spain I don't see it in the shops. So I buy from Amazon 😊
Watching this on my 1v. Have a fold 3 and chose this over the flip 5 as they haven't done enough to justify my getting it. Love the Sd cart slot though. Just getting used to a regular screen again. I do miss the real estate.
I've been using only Sony phones since 2005 (Walkman W550i) and been going from one model to another and now at 1 V. 19 years so far and they never let me down. But overall all top phones are great, but Xperia 1 V is much better for pro photographers and videographers especially for using the 1V natively as a pro monitor and recorder for my Sony alpha cameras when it's raining or dusty vs pro monitors that are exposed and not water/weather resistant.
Sony has better speakers
Sony launches App faster
Sony has 🎧 port and memory card
Sony is more durable
Sony tends to age like a fine wine
Samsung for camera and s-pen and software and availability and good after sales service
No mobile phone can beat the sound quality of Sony mobiles....
I know they carry the same amazing sound since Sony ericsson
I already own a S23 Ultra, but I am gonna buy a 1 V. Nice one.❤
I already own a 1 V, but I am gonna buy an S23 Ultra. You get 1% hardware boost and an awful AI/software support with 40% price increase. Now all we need is people who actually buy Sony's product cause they are dying in the phone market industry, 0% revenue as a matter of fact. So thank you for supporting Sony!
@7:08 what are you saying about the speakers here? The Sony has 2 front facing speakers, where are they? Is the Galaxy's speakers on the bottom and through the earpiece speaker?
12:43 the sony looks more cinematic and the S23 looks more standard realistic
sony phones are amazing.why they stop making budget phones in India very good phoned
Im still using Sony Xperia 5 ii best phone
I'll definitely go for the Sony.
Agreed, 1% hardware boost and an awful software support with 40% price increase. Our money is on Sony! Now all we need is folks who actually care and buy their product. The last time I checked, they were about 0% revenue in the phone market industry.
As always, Sony is my favorite, and I am eagerly anticipating mark V release, but unfortunately it is not available in Dubai.
yes have heard the same from many people sadly
Spen nails it for me. I am a heavy spen user and that is what differentiates samsung from Sony. Sure sd card would be nice but I paid for TB, so covered. And plan to keep for 5 years with security update
Sony Xperia 1v king of phone 😊
i love just 'Sony' no others any phone.
Sony won in the performance but didn't do well in the camera as the HDR was very poor
I love sony phones ive had 4 Xperias im on 1iii at the moment but im going to try and afford the 1v.i love sony 3.5 mm headphone jack and the SD card,just think sony phones are best quality build.
I am leaning toward Sony.
We don't have Sony here in Russia, but you know we get it.... I enjoy this phone, very quick
Wish I could have afforded the Sony😔 But my A54 5G does pretty good most of the time😁
why does one screen (the samsung) have a noticeable flickering and the sony doesn't? is that somerhing about the screen tech?
really appreciate your videos btw!
yeah it's not visible like that in person (only on camera), but has something to do with how Samsung refreshes their screens. still better to not have as much flickering regardless of whether it's visible to the human eye, though.
It's because Samsung uses PWM dimming to lower brightness. The only issue about PWM is that some people might feel headache while using the phone at night due to the flicker.
Many other new phones uses a better tech called DC dimming.
In Sony, the panel uses a hybrid PWM+DC dimming so no flicker issue.
As for the battery life test, the Sony Xperia has a much higher bitrate (more data is processing so more battery is gonna drain) on the Samsung Galaxy the higher bitrate Option has to be activated in the settings. Was it activated?
no, I go by the default settings
I've Bought Xperia 1 V tested 4 phones IPhone 15 Max Pro, Galaxy S23 Ultra Pixel 7 Pro n Xperia 1 V... I'm not regretting my decision it's way underrated phone...
For the main camera photography, Samsung has quite considerably better pipeline
