Cyco, 30 Jun 2021How is this with 1000 dollars more than the Xperia 1 ii?It's not. But all the Sony knights will tell you over and over and over it is because of its extensive unique unparalleled abilities meant for professionals that make it worth every penny🙄🙄🙄🙄

If you've been on those pages and haven't seen what we are talking about you either are one of the fans....or you simply have no idea what you are talking about/understand any of the relevant knowledge and facts to pieve it together.

            Theres nothing wrong defending the brand they have loved for years. If you noticed it, Sony related articles usually got a lot of bashes first in the comment sections thus the fanbois defending it from the unnecessary hate.

                nickname optional, 29 Jun 2021This is not just a "plastic" frame. It's mad... morePlastic frame is less durable and is not as good at dissipating heat.
                And again. You can try and deny how much of an excuse it is all you want but it doesn't change the fact of how much of an excuse it is.
                The device is severely over priced regardless of who its targeted for. Not one thing it has even justifies even costing half of what it costs.

                      "for $2,500 you'd find an external recorder or a more capable external monitor for your camera."

                      Which $2500 device is a built in recorder and monitor with 4K OLED, dual 5G band, built in battery for standalone use or extend the camera battery, touch screen and all in a size of light weight chocolate bar?

                      Once again Phone reviewers show how tech illiterate they can be.

                        Anonymous, 28 Jun 2021Oh yes plastic frame is not cheaping out. 2500 dollars for ... moreThis is not just a "plastic" frame. It's made with the same sturdy materials Sony's professional cameras are made.
                        "...Just because you use the excuse "targeted" consumer ...."
                        It is NOT a Consumer device. It's only made for the professional market. This isn't even made to be used as a "typical" Smartphone in mind. This device is NOT made for you.

It is not meant for the... moreThat's a good question for GSMA as well since they don't do live streams nor they cover live events to have the need to offload files from a camera to a remote server. I would guess they will compare this thing to Atomos Ninja in the review but these two are not the same thing despite both being able to serve as external monitors. Atomos also has 2hr of battery life despite being three times thicker and almost two times heavier but again being external monitor is not Atomos purpose just like it's not Xperia PROs purpose either.

                                    I literally said Sony make descent phones, they have a minimum standard that I respect, and its fanbase are more knowledgeable of technical stuffs, mainly on the camera department.

                                    I didn't say they make the best phone, nor that they have the best standard, nor that their fanbase are the most knowledgeable.

                                      Not you and others lying because you have a blind preference.
                                      Not you saying "oh you must have meant to reply to someone else" when the comment was replying to you with a copy and paste of another one of your comments.
                                      Your logic really needs some work.

                                        SuuperBaka, 28 Jun 2021"You are one of the newer Sony trolls as well. Always ... moreIdk if they are the same person you responded to either but...

                                        "It seems like anyone who defends Sony is a troll somehow."
                                        No. There's a difference between simply defending a company and what you all always do on Sony pages. And even defending crosses the line when there is nothing factual or logical to defend. When you are defending with excuses, lies, and bias. Responding with lies and anger is basically trolling not defending.

                                        "while anonymously typing comments against Sony and anyone who has an argument for them."
                                        No. It's just calling out people for their lies. And it's the Sony people having to attack anyone that points out obvious fact.

                                        "Maybe come up with an actual argument instead of attacking the people that have arguments."
                                        Again as the above states... thats something you Sony fans need to work on. Stop lying and attacking people. And actually come up with something useful and factual. Stop denying the facts and attacking people for having an actual argument just because you don't like the facts.
