Samshit will never make so soft and pleasant devices ever for acceptable prices. Simple to use and so many mods to add. Camera it's amazing if you open its Api2 with third party and simply doesn't have match nowadays. 10II my next!

What's the camera like? I'm sold on the OLED but some of the reviews aren't that flattering on the camera. I'm on my second Xperia phone and love it, had it 3 years now so time for a change I think. Just want to know about the camera from someone who uses the phone in the every day world

How much?

Does phone fit in jean pockets? Is phone really too tall to use?

Geez that's stupid! World record question... My my...

Nope. It lacks behind similarly priced competition in every spec: chipset, RAM memory, screen-body ratio, battery, and so on. Literally *every* competitor for 400 and even much less completely obliterates it. Take idk Xiaomi MI Note 10 Lite - 5260 vs 3600 mAh, 20% faster CPU that uses less power, *double* the RAM memory, etc. This is by far the worst phone in every aspect in the price range on the market.

i think after iphone SE2 version at price less than 400 usd, sony cell phone can't survive too.

@@NiohNiohYT Right, those competitors that spy on you from China or give you the much better 720p resolution (cough cough SE 2020) and BESTEST LCD technology in the display for watching videos that most people use the phone for on social media, streaming services, youtube or recorded content via the camera. Drop those phones in water and lets see how long they last- wait did they forget their IP68 rating at home. Those competitors are so good they use gorilla glass 5 instead of the gorilla glass 6 used in the Xperia for better durability. Some of them cut out their own screen, because who needs a full screen- look at that beautiful chunk we took out your phone to fit a camera- where else could we put it? Who needs 1080p OLED, headphone jack, expandable storage, IP65/68 water and dust protection, 128GB storage and multiple camera array for versatility. The Xiaomi Mi Note 10 Lite is no doubt a good phone, but it has chinese spyware, has no warranty, uses older gorilla glass 5, uses older UFS 2.1 instead of UFS 3 storage, has no expandable storage, has no telephoto camera, doesn't have LDAC (best wireless bluetooth codec by a large margin), has lower resolution/ ppi and doesn't support a large number of video formats like H.265 as far as I am aware. So each phone has pros and cons.

Nah they ruined with sd 665

@@townofdudleysixth "but it has chinese spyware" - why do you lie? "Right, those competitors that spy on you from China" - why do you lie again?

270? Isn't it priced at 380?

@@mouadtalbi4170 i hacked our (netherlands) system. got it on a contract cheap 270 and payed it all off at once instead of every month i also payed for the 2 € a month extra option to cancel your contract at any time. tecnically i payed 27 € for the first month but that includes unlimited 4g and calls/sms for a month. edit: so i can go prepaid any time i want. but 27 for unlimited data and calls is not bad. edit edit : i also got a free WI-C310 headset with it for free as some sort of action by sony.

What's the camera like?

Just like s10e. A compact phone with acceptable flagship spec and good price point.

Imo, it doesn't even have to be flagship spec.... This phone is actually perfect... As narrow as the new iPhone SE so 16:9 content would look almost exactly the same except OLED. GG6 on front and back which is epic af, non cringe cameras, 3600mAh is really nice for this footprint. The only thing that isn't good would be the performance of the SD665 they could've included atleast a 675 or a 720G. Sony actually made a good phone this time.

I am also looking forward the possibility of getting this one in india..

No. The Sony USA website does not have Xperia 10 ii. This means the device will never show up. Just 1 ii and Pro.

I just bought one in FL it's coming from tx

@@ericedwards3055 really? Where? I have yet to see anything from retailers like best buy, they have the 1ii already. I had to get mine off of clove, though, it was delayed until august because of shipping delays. :c

@@princez.2648 You can get an international version on ebay from a vender in tx

No its not

@@carver9312 i wanted it and got it for about 270€

Yes

Put a sd855 and it would be perfect compact phone for me.

I have the same issue with my Xperia 5. It seems after the Android 10 update all these sensors got messed up. I did delete my fingerprint after the last update and registered the same thumb twice and it did help improve it. However, I'm hearing that Sony fixed this issue in their newer models, so let's hope more reviewers confirm this.

I have no problems with the fingerprint sensor, works great here.

@@iHayri1 what i did in my case, was to reset the fingerprint registration, and repeat the process, but this time, i tried to register many of the finger positions i could, that actually solved my problem

@@NicolasSilvaVasault good to hear that it is working better now, it's a great phone and I like that the sensor is on the power button and not on the back :-)

@@iHayri1 i totally agree with that, the position of the sensor is so much better than the rest of the phones, and the lack of notch really makes me happy

yes , but than there goes 100 bucks , and another 100 bucks because the ram needs to be supplemented too , because SONY, that's why . Even this shit is overpriced as fuck , and they wanna make a comeback with products like this ? . No way man .

any phone that outperform snapdragon 820 devices for speed and cpu throttling are surely enough to do more even it could be the lowest in 2020. take a look for pixel 3a, people are shilling about their chipsets but it does perform much better for daily stuffs and it's a worthy midrange.

@@kisspeteristvan the Xperia 1 ii is there come back same price and spec as the iPhone 11

It a $400 phone lol. What more do you want I'm it. I don't even know an iPhone with all this includes that's around the same price

@kakro what's it price point

xperia 1 II is an excellent phone

Indeed if you want to buy a flagship phone that still has a headphone jack Xperia 1 II is the best bet what people didn't not know is that even if this phone retained the jack which is the best but Sony did bring back alot of old features that we wanted like the support of the dualshock 4 wireless charging etc. and that i agree with you. Not only Sony has released this phone but also it's low cost devices Xperia 10 II and L4 both of them has 3 cameras and still they retained the headphone jack

Yep

Can go up to 1 TB of storage I’ve never had a phone up to 1 TB so this might be my first try but 1 TB is a lot

@@tina-po4dx yeah i guess! But i think that option is for people who shot 4k videos a lot. Makes sense though

Xperia 1 mark 2 is still in pre-order how you got to buy it 🤔

Doesn't 10 mk 2 have like only 400 nits

you have a note 9 and decided on an 'upgrade' , genius man , genius .

It has 30% more pixels. Of course it will not have all that brightness. Also , high brightness on oled will make burn-in sooner.

@@mouadtalbi4170 came yesterday buddy, I'm in the UK

Don't think so.

There's the Xperia 1:2 6.5 "

No. In this price range almost all phones have headphone jacks and in flagships LG has been doing it for long time, with better sound quality than Sony. They didn't put notch not because you don't want it but cos it's cheaper for them to make it, you pretty much have *huge* bezel instead of screen - cheaper for them. Also you can "turn off" notch in options so it only contains battery info and notification icons, so that's still some extra screen space gifted to you pretty much instead of a bezel.

This phone looks like trash. Be quiet.

@@carver9312 Hello, Carver 9 A Sony Hater.

Can be change in the setting…it is Android 10.

That's the Xperia 1 ii my dude

Beatrice what is the camera like? That seems to be the main complaint about this phone.

@@Stevethesearcher hi there Steve. Hmm, for me, the camera quality is quite good. Just that it takes longer time to react and capture as you press the button. But generally, the image quality is good and satisfying, it is very natural and real in colours and textures.

@@beatriceshere Thanks Beatrice for your answer. The reason I asked is that this phone is going to be made available soon for Sailfish. That’s an alternative mobile operating system. I no longer want to use any phone with Google or Apple on it. I don’t want them spying on me. Anyway thanks for your answer to my question I appreciate it.

@@Stevethesearcher I see. Hope you find the one that suits you :) You’re welcome!

Got it for €240,00 with contract, works good. It's a beautifull phone, i was a bit dissapointed with the camera speed and performance. Now i'm over that, use another app and that helps. Formfactor is my main reason for this phone❤️.

Why?

why u geh ?

ye that must suck. im from the eu so it hard to imagine main brands not being available here. does this happen to a lot of phones or just sony?

But everything about this phone is perfect. I'm still looking for a cinematic shot review by this phone

I'm really thinking about getting this. I have the S10 and I hate it. For the price abd what you're getting for it. Is worth it! 4g ram is fine as long as the software is good.

@@maxbautista8013 whats wrong with the ram?

Back with what? Worst CPU, worst battery, worst RAM memory in the price range... it genuinely is the worst phone in it's price range atm, getting *destroyed* by the likes of Xiaomi, Samsung, even Huawei if you don't mind lack of google services, and so on.

@@NiohNiohYT yeah but sony has the best build quality, battery care, ui skin that those chinese manufacturers could only dream of

@@Pantosoft No, Sony doesn't have the best build quality. They actually get faulty more often than the likes of competition including Huawei, Apple, Samsung, and believe it or not Xiaomi. Check statistics. The two only worse brands than Sony are HTC and LG when it comes to quality/reliability. Also, it's by *very* *far* the worst phone in this price range, getting outspeced by literally double by all competition in ~400$ price range. Disgrace. There is no excuse for sub 4000 mAh battery, for 11nm crappy CPU and 4GB RAM for 400$ in 2020, let alone bezels from 5 years ago and so on.

@@NiohNiohYT battery is just as good if not better than competition. Ill give you the chipset argument but build quality? What other phone for 400 has gg6 and ip65/68? Bezels are very slim and its a matter of preference for notch or no notch

@@NiohNiohYT i have an xperia m5 for 5 years, it is still going to this day. Me and my friends were joking because we couldnt break it, (im not joking) Xiaomis and hauweis are chiply made with non premium materials. Sony, LG, nad Samsung are better. (Dont forget the heavy software skins on top of chinese phones who make the rather big batteries drain easily...)

Anything larger than 4.7 isn't compact

looks like it but its tall and skinny. the screen is so tall i have to streach my xl hand a lot to reach the hole screen without repositioning my hand.

Xperia 5 is the compact

@@kittikorn6674 depends on the aspect ratio when you look at screen size.

It's as narrow as an iPhone SE but taller.

@Drink Water Cheers! 🍻

This is much better. Basically, it's very similar to the Xperia 5 with half the price. I would definitely put this phone on my list if I was thinking of buying having a new phone.

@kakro I agree that the XZ3 is a better choice. Not only it is faster and have a more premium build, the XZ3 also has QHD display, wireless charging, stereo speakers and only slightly smaller battery. The only downside I can think of is XZ3 will only get up to Android 10.

Just bought this one this week. Last Sony was xz1c and with a Galaxy A70 last year. Since discovering Samsung hardcoded a China DNS server secretly I had to get rid of it. Release price here US335. So far like the form factor despite initial fear. CPU coped ok most of the time. I use proper camera for pic so the camera here not priority. Good with BT aptx and LDAC.

agreed, this is the single worst phone on the market for money. Compare for example MI Note 10 Lite at even lower price: larger screen, better screen to body ratio, almost 2000 mAh more battery, double the RAM, better chipset, and so on.

@@NiohNiohYT dont compare shitty chinese phones with this one please, mi note 10 has worse battery life with 2000mah more, has a worse screen has more ram but worse ram management, so you won't see a difference, the performance might be a bit better in game but that's it

@@MrDV112 Currently it's 370€ , at 299€ it would be a good deal , but not outstanding , no hate , just sayin' (price includes tax mind you)

@@MrDV112 yes u can compared it when it gives better specs and reasonable price.

@@MrDV112 You know at ~260 it would sell like the lumia 520 , aka hot cake

Rubbish doesn't last a day I've got this phone don't play any games and my screen is down low very low and it still doesn't last

Maybe in midrange but the Xperia 1 ii is better than apple and pixel now

They should buy blackberry 10 os, it has all the swipe gestures that apple and Android copied and has the greatest security in a phone... Only lacks apps, which is tough but is more fluid than Android

odd i get easy full days with heavy screen use. maybe you got a lemon.

@@ruhalfoyls definitely I sent it back got a replacement and it's okay still not the best battery but it's okay 🙂

Specs wise I wonder the quality per spec though

All are trash, especially the Samsung

It is better than 821.

@@OmarSS87 i know still they should have gone with at least 720g

leave the numbers aside. This phone can run everything a flagship phone can and Sony has optimised its software to work smoothly with this chip.

It looks better than all the ugly notches on your phone. seriously people are so bad in taste. They would eat the shit if shit is future tech instead of old good food.

A hole and a notch won't make a phone look premium lol.. atleast pop up screen does...but a hole in the screen is dumb ass hell....image a hole or a notch on ur TV lol

How is it ugly?

Put a cute hole in the screen and it might look like every Android phone lol

yes you can.. just pinch out the screen with your finger

But do you loose content like buts of heads or do people become bloated. I really like the idea of the phone but if the experience becomes inhibited I'm not sure. Is there an app to help? Love the idea but seems inpractical if there is not content to support the screen ratio. Or is it just the phone concept is ahead of its time.

@@Babsharker For youtube, yes some (most) video may be cropped top and bottom. And some youtube video will have that 21:9 aspect. If you watch a movie on your phone, it'll be a perfect fill screen. But tbh, it is not that big deal having black boxes left and right (well, atleast for me tho).
