Listening the sound the 1II is more better but when looking at the photos the S20 Ultra seems to be better with more saturation and detail, but I have always wondered why the photos of the Galaxy look yellowish?

    Can't wait for the time when this drops to $500.

      Sony sounded louder and a tiny bit clearer than the Samsung.
      Only shows the advantage of real dual front firing stereo speakers.

        I am surprised 10 ii can handle it without OIS.

        All samples are blur free.

          If that feature works great on the Xperia 10 Mk II, it will be expected to work even greater on this 1 Mk II.

            But no need to expect it to be the same as on the Galaxies, iPhones, and Pixels. Sony just doesn't want to go that way, as it goes against their concept of a "pro" camera phone.

            For that, you have GCAM port to give you the desired results you're looking for. And it's better now since this phone finally supports complete RAW capture and unlocked camera2 api.

              Only RAW can offer un-cooked & no-artifacts images. If it is there on the Xperia, great!

                But hes totaly right, HDR sucks on my Xperia 5 .. so any improvement is greatly appreciated.

                  I want sunset images to have dark shadows. I'll brighten up them later on if I wanted it to be in the post process.

                    Cool

                      Meanwhile their new midranger, released two week ago, still isn‘t available in major markets.

                        Hopefully their HDR algorithms have been greatly tweaked. Those were the biggest weakness on the Xperia Flagships.
