I’m ok with tall phones. But I hate the wide phones. They are harder to use

Wide.. tall phones just seem kinda weird

The Verge both nope. Tall and wide 👎

I'm not a huge fan of tall phones because its a bit hard to navigate through news apps yet makes it way better than wide phones.

Wider screen cannot handle with single hand

YOu right. The written review did sound a more positiv though, because he ended with saying he did like the phone. But to see all the shortcomings this phones had, according to the review seems to say, he didnt like the phone at all.

Well it’s the verge and not an iPhone for them so of course

Sure he is like criticizing the phone only

Wtf lmao🤣😆

Cause it's $950. The phone was already embarrassed in terms of specs by the oneplus 7 pro.

He uses a thousand phones with regular buttons There's a reason why those phones have similar button placement

@@shvkap yep, basically, that's why he should not have mentioned it in the first place. He's nitpicking. Everyone knows that you'll get used to any placement of buttons no matter what.

I'm so jealous.

Meh i got the mate 20 pro fir 500€ so now i have 450€ left to spend

sadly in southeast asia you would never had those bundle. but the price are exactly same like oneplus 7 pro in here.

How did you got it where do you live?

Great deal.. but it’s price will be 500$ within 6 months or even less.

cool review bro. really the underrated comment in here.

It's indead a great phone the Sony Xperia 1. I don't like this review because the reviewers make Sony bad and Google pixel so called great which it isn't. Only popularity scores probably naming some brands bad. I wis there was a filter from such kind of content. Enjoy your Sony Xperia 1.

@@davidvandewater1402 maybe it's quite nitpicking for me. but i would reccomend chris barraclough from tech spurt/ recombu for more fair and detail review. he's such a good guy and honest for reviewing smartphone.

Like ... all of them.

This is super vague. What are the things the phone does well enough that justify spending $900 on it?

Exactly! He can't even remember camera button, I was like . . . Why am I watching this ?

I mean look at S10 Verge's review lol

@@sphericalred that's what he was supposed to say in the review. He should talk about mediocre camera or price instead of forgetting the button and all other buts.

Ikr..

He always press the wrong button...definitely he got brain problem

It's the Verge what did you expect really?

agree..

They just need the reason to bash

True. I also noticed that. This guy is kinda idk. 🙄

some people keep their phones in the back pocket??? why is this such a hard concept to grasp lol

I do sometimes

I keep my phone in the back pocket so i can make kids one day if I want to ...it’s not good for your buddies to be close to a phone

That seems to be a special promotion and it's not available everywhere. Certainly it does look like a much better deal if you get it with the headphones...assuming you actually wanted the headphones. Personally I already have a nice pair of noise-canceling BT headphones so I would much rather have the option of getting just the phone for less money...

In denmark we only get a 60% off coupon for the headphones ;(

Save money by buying one plus 7 pro and get 1000xm3 still cheaper

@@kevadu What are the chances those nice noise cancelling headphones.. support Sony's high bitrate wireless communication codec LDAC.

Probably because this might have been a review unit, and it was filmed before the promotion was announced.

That's true

I didn't read your post. My thoughts are the same. This happens too often in reviews. It's bad!

I hate how the verge says the new standard now is "no headphone jack" in 2019

@@scottind sadly, it's true, if it's not and people do care more about their headphone Jack, they'd vote with their wallet, and phones like Samsung and LG would be the best sellers everywhere. Sadly, they ain't always.

@@MuhammadKharismawan unfortunately there are other factors at play in the US. Stores prioritize promotions for certain brands and they downplay the lack of the jack and try to wow consumers with other things. Most consumers don't realize it until it's too late unfortunately.

Enmity the Kindhearted 2025: this pleb’s phone doesn’t even have 32 GB RAM, 8 core CPU, double dedicated GPU

It just depends what you do on it. 4 gb is still plenty for me.

Honestly I think companies aren't doing enough to make 6gb of ram work like it should.. I mean every year they slap 2 more gbs but they don't really optimize the device to work properly and it feels like a waste.

Ussually, Sony's been pretty good on their RAM management, at least better than Pixel did

LMFAO

Totally agree. This display is so good I have no words. For example, I saw a screen comparison somewhere on youtube between Xperia 1 and Oneplus 7 pro. Xperia's color reproduction was miles ahead. I mean, incomparable.

Yeah. Found the video. It's on channel Btekt and it compares the screens of these 2 phones.

Yap, this always happens with Sony Xperia phones as far as I can remember. Reviewers will give discouraging reviews, but when Samsung or other competitors copy or adapt the idea, they are all praises.

How can the phone be "smart" enough to know it's "night time"...by having it plugged in after a drain on the battery?

@@lulube11e111 ??? Do you mean, people have their phones *ON* while charging versus completely turned *OFF* ? Either way, what then is meant by "sleeping"? Most chargers are "smart" enough to *TRICKLE* charge a phone when it gets to 95% approx so as not to overcharge them so to speak.

That's what I'm saying.

Agree. Xperia 1 is expensive for a good reason. Some people don't see it.

No mention of Game enhancer in this review either. Inbuilt screen recorder, RAM management, CPU optimiser and 120Hz refresh rate...

"only 90Hz" Interesting point while the Xperia 1 has a 60Hz screen so why you're saying it's "only" 90Hz? And what's a "stacked sensor"? The sensors of the Xperia 1 aren't special at all actually.

@@Raja995mh33 memory stacked sensor which allows it to record 960fps slow mo videos

@@Raja995mh33 Because Xperia 1 support 120Hz for gaming mode...

Lg one plus have their flagship below 900 and he never said other phones above 1000 is justified (no phone is). What are you saying?

Apple on his own is every phone? Lmao

Every flagship is not 1000+ and they a little over a thousand. This 950 price tag is way too much for this phone to not have the features of premium flagships

You get sick pair of 300 dollar Sony headphones bundled in that 950.

Yes

Yes he can, even though it is way harder for him than making Xperia 1 price unjustified.

Iphone not good men only 4 gb ram how come now is 2019 not 2016

BumbleBeBee 240613 LOL my 3GB RAM iPhone X outpaces any 2018 and even some 2019 android flagships

@@shouryeningle3688 whenever I pick an iPhone an start using it the first I thing I say to myself is... It should cost wayyy less than what it is

I've used z3, z3+ and XZ.

Saaga R so?

why use wireless charging? it is slow, inefficient and produces excess heat. Only reason is that you dont want to wear out your usb c port because now you need headphones on it too

i still have my xperia 1 and it still amazes me how good it is. and yes after using this phone for years i don't think i could ever switch brands. sony makes the best phones and could probably be one of the best selling phones if they wanted. if they advertised their phones heavily, they would sell a lot more, and then they wouldn't have to charge as much if they sold more. sadly most people are npcs and will never buy anything that's not heavily advertised. it's like their brains tell them that whatever is advertised most heavily is automatically the best. it's almost like sony doesn't want everyone having their phones. for whatever reason they like their phones having a niche fan base. i kinda like it too, being the only person i know with a sony, and nearly everyone else has either a samsung or an iphone.

pre order only and so did samsung include the wireless buds

And within a month samsung brought down its price by 200 $. So i expect this phone can be had for 650 real soon.

or free ps4 if you are the vodafone users

Don't compare galaxy buds with xm3's please, for god's sake.

in selected region while stock last pre order

Why would it

The phone is best suited for movie watching... That's why Sony worked with Netflix on this phone for screen and HDR compatibility.

isn't shot on 21:9 or *19.5:9* or *18.9* Fixed it for you.

i bought my xperia 1 for 800 about a year after it came out and it's still working like new. and even after having it for years, this phone still amazes me. i'm still shocked by how amazing the screen looks, it's literally perfect and i can't imagine the newer models improving on it in any way. i have like 10 emulators on this phone, and they all work perfectly. i even played a few ps2 games with emulators that ran perfectly, i couldn't believe it. although the ps2 emulator does drain the battery extremely fast, so i don't use it too much, but it's amazing that i can.

It's a basher, of course they won't even mention the one thing every other reviewer does.

Not in germany 🙄

You can choose between Headphones or PS4 in the UK

Subconsciously making the phone less appealing

@@AllCarsUnited I honestly thought the same. Even checked settings to see if it was an HDR video

Why?

I mean... why? 60fps for just a casual viewing is OP 30 or 24 fps is great for recording and more important: archiving. 60fps is great for sports viewing

Having both is best

@@UrAvgGamer yes, my charging port on my Samsung Galaxy S8 has died. I would've had to get it repaired or buy a battery case if it didn't have wireless charging. I won't ever buy a phone without wireless charging.

@@franklingoodwin why not repair the charging port? it's not difficult there are plenty of tutorials online

Copy that! In fact, wireless means *NOTHING* to me...nada, zip, cero.

@Amir Not worth it on a 3 year old phone to be fair. It's not cheap or easy to repair and would probably cost nearly as much as the phone's market price. Also, I would lose the water resistance it currently still has. I'm not sure that's a good trade off considering I can still charge the phone

Swetank it’s the verge what you expect from bunch of isheeps

Sony is known for their sound... well not applicable for their phones tho

Sony is known for their sound... and removed the headphone jack. Yeah.

Because their division do not want to share their respective research budget to others.

The phone is great and with the 300 dollar headphones its the best deal you can ever get.

According to SONY's official response, the camera division refused to share or help with the development of SONY Mobile's phone camera division because SONY camera division fears that this will effect their selling result. That kinda sounds like nonsense, luckily SONY has made some changes among divisions this year and, I'd say that Xperia 1's camera is a huge progress since XZ3 according to my use

@@redi6460 It is a promo while stock is available. Try buying it after 2 months, it is not worthed And it is only available in selected region.

People who buy the phone are the real reviewers 😊

It's not an Apple, Samsung or Huawei...so vids like this will unfortunately be common. I can imagine the praise on this phone if one of those 3 brands were stamped on this phone instead of Sony. Oh well, no biggie, it is what it is.

The 4K screen runs at 1080p 99% of the time unless you view 4k video so why does he need to go in depth on a panel that always has upscaled 1080p.
