AnonD-940827, 28 Jan 2021Still better than your high ranked oneplus camera. One does... moreOnePlus 8 pro has much better camera than Sony Xperia 1 II.
Sony Auto mode just sucks. It's the worst out of all flagships out there.

Nick Tegrataker, 28 Jan 2021Or, it might be just Sony used to pay a lot of money then D... moreNot sure about Sony Mobile Div. paying sites when they do not had that much money even in the first place. I even recall back then that most tech sites(especially PhoneArena) loves to bas Sony but DxO was the only one who did the opposite.
Anyway that's good of you not to buy these b*llsh*t ^^

Oppaii, 28 Jan 2021Sony used to rule the DxO then suddenly the Chinese starts ... moreOr, it might be just Sony used to pay a lot of money then DxOMark changed the protocol significantly to better reflect the real life performance.. but who knows. I don't buy into this baseless "Company A is getting good scores because $$$" argument anyway.

If the users uses auto mode, it's their choice to let the computation decided. f the user decides to shot raw, more power to them.
The score DXO mark provides is only part of the picture, there is so much more to photography than that.

People needs to be reminded of the fact that an overall score of 112 is NOT bad at all. It's exactly the same as the regular P40 from last year and is still higher than 108 from Z Fold 2 that has comparable hardware. Other companies put more effort on auto processing which DxOMark evaluates and carry out their set of tests on, Sony obviously doesn't do as much, hence lower score. There's nothing to be upset about SMH.
With that said, however, I do wonder how much Xperia 5 II would fare under the same test protocol. Looking through the samples on the internet, Xperia 1 II seems to suffer from lens quality issues and some parts of the frame look too blurry and out of focus in an unnatural way (like the indoor shot on a shelf), whereas 5 II fares a lot better in this regard.

As y'all said, the phone is one year old. And smartphone camera don't improve tremendously every year. I don't the clickbait.

Sony phones are so under rated actually very good. Cameras have vastly improved the Xperia 1 on. Dx0Mark seems very biased towards Sony as most reviews the Xperia 1 ii fairs much better than this. Check other reviews for more accurate camera review.

Whatever DxO mark says, I couldn't care less. I love my 1ii and it produces excellent photos for my taste - true to life quality with low to no oversaturation or blown highlights - definitely the best camera I have ever owned in a phone, coming from iphone XS and S9+

Holding an Xperia 1 ii in my hands right now, the default camera is poor for a flagship. I love everything else about the phone but Sony really need to sort out their post processing. It does work sometimes, it can produce good photos, but often it just fails.
The Camera Pro app is NOT the answer, it's designed to work only in landscape with the hardware button and requires too much effort for the average user to get a decent photo - it's auto mode is only marginally better than the default app.
I have no issue with DxOMark giving my phone an average score - it's absolutely correct.

I can believe that, I switched from a Huawei p20 pro to this and the Huawei still takes better pics. So disappointed with the performance of the Xperia 1 ii and I am an avid Sony supporter
