I love the designs on the Xperia phones. But I won't get one until they support all the bands on T-Mobile's US network. Sony doesn't seem serious about selling phones in the US.

    Android-Authority, 16 Apr 2021Millions of Xiaomi fans were laughing when the MI 10 ultra ... moreDestroying the RX100? That's a bit of a stretch. RX100 has lens advantage, sensor size, and other factors that put it ahead of it. Also the samples I saw might be biased, I'd rather see an actual comparison done before I make a judgement.

            Android-Authority, 16 Apr 2021Millions of Xiaomi fans were laughing when the MI 10 ultra ... moreNot a Chinese hater at all, but Apple .

            Love any Android OEMs.
            I'm an Android fanboy, so doesn't matter if it's Chinese, Korean, Japanese or any country.

            True, night photos are hard, but majority take day photos.
            Employ Xneon flash.
            I can't say nothing about M11U, I never used Xiaomi phones, but I own 5ii, and the when using Pro app Vs stock is day night difference.
            So for it to defeat M11U stock, is hard too believe.

              786, 15 Apr 2021Lmao, that's why no YouTube channels or phone tech sit... moreI only take people who have a real account seriously.

              You are a Chinese phone hater as evident from ignorant statements like this :
              "Only the camera is good, the rest is not. Don't rely trust chinnese phones"

              Why should anyone take you seriously after that?

                786, 15 Apr 2021Majority take day pictures, not night. Samsung wins.Real camera quality is judged at night.
                In daytime, even budget phones can give great quality photos.

                  Anonymous, 15 Apr 2021Lmfao, Sony alpha series features vs Gcam, Millions off ... moreMillions of Xiaomi fans were laughing when the MI 10 ultra embarrassed the Xperia and every other phone on the market last year with superb all round camera performance.
                  They didn't even need gcam.

                  With gcam, the MI 11 Ultra which is the successor to Mi 10 ultra will be destroying RX100.
                  Xperia 1 III will do nothing and concede defeat to the best camera on smartphone right now.
                  The sensor being from Samsung must be adding insult to the injury for you.

                    Shanti Dope, 14 Apr 2021You're complaining about it being just 12MP but I bet ... moreMan i know that but for example Axon flagship gives 3x 64 Mpix camera.
                    Oneplus 9 ro is the best camera phone ever made now
                    And xiaomi flagship Mi mix Ultra is also a lot better and cheaper.
                    Sony is nothing just expensive gimmicks.

                      1. Sony now is manufacturing in Japan its high end devices. It's ultra quality to have MADE IN JAPAN logo. My brother bought one 1II last month and it's SUPREME in every aspect!
                      2. It's now under 800 euro.
                      3. Cameras are simply the best not like 100mp looking like crap computational. Perfect 12 mp quality with like.no.other pro apps and quality results!
                      4. No rivals featuring NO LAG in every app from Play. Perfect compatibility!
                      5. Ultra battery backup for all its devices high and low!
                      6. Ultra quality screens (made by Sony!).
                      5. Always with top features on paper now real life, top quality! For low end devices still!
                      Daddy Sony it's now SUPREME by playing all its best aces!
                      Swallow that trolls!

                        I'd love too see Sony using X1 extreme processor for this phone.

                        The CPU That they use on their Master series TV oled, XG9505, J series and A series TV

                        You will need 6000mah battery, even that would be like 3500mah

                            Anonymous, 15 Apr 2021Way better than wasting 1200 Euros on Xperia 1 II At least 1 II still has a lot of essential features that some people like you were begging for your faves OEMs to keep the features around years ago LOL, so 1 II, V60 ThinQ & a handful of 2020 flagships offering those.

                              Anonymous, 15 Apr 2021Disappointed with Xperia 10 III. 60hz and barely no upgrade... moreIt has 4K@120Hz simultaneous dude. I didn't believe it either but reports state that they're using 2 Bravia Co-processors to take that display load off of the 888. Ridiculous for the battery but let's see how it does.

                                vrvly, 15 Apr 2021Kind of shame they don't take hints from competitors, ... moreIt's just because Japan (their biggest market despite Sharp, Pixel, and Apple's presence) prefers thin and lightweight phones. They didn't want to jack up the size for them. Trust me, that display as a 6.7" (like the Moto One 5G) would have been killer.
