Shanti Dope, 02 Apr 2021That's probably the best way to implement cutout hidin... more"chances are it will be unevenly brighter than the rest of the screen after some time due to degredation"
To be honest, if you're a type of person who prefers hiding a notch in software, you will probably never want to turn it off. The black bar consistently stays there no matter what you do on a screen (even if you watch a full screen video or are in a lock screen) and blends in with a notch nicely so there shouldn't be any reason going back to the regular notification bar.
In case you liked the feature enough to use it for 2 or 3 years then switched back to the default setting for whatever the reason, which I can't think of any, then it might pose a problem. Though not that I care a lot because I don't hide a punch hole/notch on my phones anyway :)

I've been seeing some people on this forum relentlessly saying "A Quad Bayer sensor has much slower readout speed and that's why Sony decided to stick with 12MP for the main cam" even after it had been revealed that a FF 50MP sensor inside Sony Alpha 1 can perform a full sensor readout in less than 5ms, even faster than iPhone 11's already impressive 6.25ms (Side note: Difference in CFA between QB and Bayer wouldn't affect the readout speed). They are going through a right direction by switching to a QB sensor, I hope they'll improve on the JPEG processing as well.. more consistent HDR, less texture smudging in low light, better digital zoom etc.

Shanti Dope, 02 Apr 2021Oh bro, you just did. You just set an example about the SD7... moreI apologise for incorrectly assuming that you hadn't looked at the spec sheet properly before you installed Gcam on your phone. Earlier I might have been taking a bit critical attitude towards you for not knowing about 4K 60 recording capability (or not checking it properly), and it was unreasonable since you did look through the Qualcomm's official document after all.
With that said, there's a massive hole in your argument. Unlike the max video recording resolution/frame rate support which isn't mentioned anywhere in the spec sheet (which means you can even assume that it can record 4K120fps and still might not be wrong), Qualcomm clearly states that it supports "4K @ 60 Hz" display at most. This would be an utter lie if SD888 really supported pushing 4K resolution at 120Hz, and for them there would be absolutely no reason not to write it down in case the chipset indeed did. Like the other anonymous person who replied to you has already said - your claim just makes no logical sense.

Davy Jones, 02 Apr 2021Both of these phones have great camera but I hate the fact... moreOh, I meant "those phones" for all smartphone cameras in general. So what I wanted to say was "better image quality than Galaxy or iPhone" no way means it's a good camera - you know, like saying that I can run faster than the one of the slowest persons in the town doesn't make me good at running.

Portraits FL usually between 50-135mm, with 85mm are the most favourable one, and I think that the 85mm is the perfect portrait lens for me.
'Nobody cares about super zoom'
- Actually there is, especially the one appreciate sports & wildlife photography. Eventhough that is not my genre, youre just being exaggarating.

A real xz1 compact successor or sony bust, lol. It's now or forever absent from EU consumers eyes. Nobody wants another ultra-tall flagship racket-sized phablet

I go to the nature every week and the telephoto camera help a lot to take images from places i can't reach and capture them in detail.
I like the aesthetics of the traditional display without holes but i'm not interested in their phones until Sony adds a proper periscope camera with at least 5x optical zoom or better maintain one with 3x optical and add another with 10x optical... plus improve their low light image processing. I also don't like the 21:9 format but that is secondary if the phone worth and has all the features i wish. Lets see what they offer at April 14.

Telephoto lenses exist for portrait mode as they go from 70-120 which is a portrait lens. Yes, shooting portraits with wide 24mm main sensor is wrong. It's more practical to have periscope (optical) zoom that goes from 24mm to 90mm then to have one that goes from 120 to oblivion like 250

It says this on the website: "Video Capture Features: Rec. 2020 color gamut video capture, 4K HDR video capture with portrait mode, Up to 10-bit color depth video capture." It doesn't mention the frame rate. By using your logic, it doesn't support capturing 4K at 30 fps videos because it doesn't mention it. The only thing you've proven is that you were uninformed.

I love sony phones. Those were known for their quality, but unfortunately it disappeared from Indian market because of many cheap phone domination. I hope to see it back in India atleast in 5g era.

No ... moreBoth of these phones have great camera but I hate the fact people criticize some specific just for doing thing differenttly like sony does with its cameras you should accept that they tend to approach more natural tuning over oversaturated or oversharped processing of other phone cameras
