Shui8, 23 Jan 2020Xperia 1 does using Zeiss lens. - https://m.gsmarena.com... moreZeiss build the modules. Not their lenses.
Not even for HMD (not their phones nor the ODM devices they sell under Nokia name)

It says G lens for 26mm ... No mention ofmother, which means it is a random supplier.

    " Neither Leica or Huawei manufacture the lenses. Instead, a third-party manufacturer in Asia mass-produces the lenses to the specifications agreed upon by Leica and Huawei. It's not surprising that Leica doesn't produce the lenses, as its campus just isn't built for mass production of smartphone components."

              Anonymous, 23 Jan 2020Don't know what point you are trying to make. It can do 4K ... moreThey have always tested the default setting.

              Pixel does 4K30. 1080p30 was tested.
              Xperia 5 does 4K24p HDR/30p HDR ... 1080p30 was tested.

              Why only change for Apple?

                Anonymous, 23 Jan 2020Same way DxOMark doesn't test for 960fps slow motion record... moreThe problem is the fact Dxomark says they test with default settings.
                But they changed for iphone, only for iphone ...

                If they used 4K60 of iphone instead of FHD30 (set as default) , they should have tested Pixel 4 at 4K30 and Xperia 5 at 4K30 HDR. But no...

                Of course both would have higher video score than iphone. Something looks like they dont want to see.

                  Software and in phone processing capabilities is proving to be much much more beneficial than hardware when it comes to cameras nowadays.

                    FarFan, 23 Jan 2020And compare this to fresh sony xperia 5 scoreHonestly Sony make amazing lenses for everbody but there own phones score poorly in tests. Shame they are good hardware. Maybe if they put decent lenses on like Leica. They will get good rwviews

                      To be honest iphone are ok but not ground breaking camera system. Very good stable 4k video. But all substandard compared to Galaxy S20. With 8k video and the amazing 108mpx camera system.

                        FarFan, 23 Jan 2020And compare this to fresh sony xperia 5 scoreShouldn't even be compared.
                        Xperia 5 is depending solely on its hardware, hence the low scores (as it attempts to deliver images as close to a proper digital camera as possible).
                        Once Sony hops into computational photography and do it as greatly as Google and Apple, then it's definitely a game-over for everybody.

                            So what? Does anybody care about all the DXO numbers anymore? The whole reason for the company's existence is becoming obsolete.

                            Now its all about choices and not numbers anymore. Every phone has its class and they all give almost the same results as others from that class. Bye Bye DXO

                              Anonymous, 23 Jan 2020that should increase scores right? and that is visible look... moreAll current iPhone models (8 and above) support 4K60 up to the maximum storage of the phone; Android devices on 4K60 have been limited to arbitrary limits such as 5 minutes because of concerns of the OS crashing and potential hardware damage (not a joke, regarding the Snapdragon 845 and Exynos 9810 SoCs).

                              Perhaps DxOMark is testing the maximum video capability of the phone, and the truest it can achieve without AI-assisted boosting. For instance, the iPhone will perform better video capture in low light at low frame rates (30 and below). It can't do that at 4K60.
