Cheaping out on included accessories? Massive price hikes? Average photo processing? It's a nice phone but it's not paving the way for much of anything.... not to say much else is either

        rizki1, 28 Jun 2021what if xiaomi made a phone like this?They won't, these kind of features are too niche to be mass produced and implemented across many of their phone models to be profitable.

                          [deleted post]I honestly don't see how his comment is racist. If he's referring to Chinese phone companies, what should he have said? If he made actual racist comments, I would agree with you, but I don't really see him showing prejudiced towards the Chinese people, but the actual company itself.

                              But when I said lagging behind I didn't mean megapixels. I meant output. Yes their color rendition was a littler better but white point was still an issue. And they were often severely behind in exposure and hdr. For a while were behind in speed as well. And their processing was lacking. I definitely prefer less sharpening. But they had excessive noise without enough detail to make up for it.

                                Not to mention all the past years of Sony being much higher and Samsung being .5-2.

                                  Good idea of a device. But, sony should update it with xperia 1 III components.

                                      Anonymous, 28 Jun 2021No. It's anything sony related. Not just their camera.... moreWell, it is mostly about camera, but yeah, since Sony do good products in a lot of aspects, obviously there are interesting conversations about more than just camera.
                                      Also, Sony fanbase are more educated on deep technical subjects and will more often talk about how a camera works than the fan of other brands who know more about surface stuffs.

                                      "Lagging behind" is over exaggerated, I personally don't care how many megapixels (as long as there are enough) a camera have, I look at the result, I'd prefer a 10 year old 12Mp camera taking amazing pictures over a just released 200Mp camera being ten times the price and the same quality or less.
                                      Since the Xperia 1, regardless if their hardware was outdated or not (I don't know), they did deliver, and this is all that matter.
                                      Yes, they never got as good as the latest flagships of other big brands like Samsung released in the same period, the Xperia 1 was beaten by the S10 Plus like the Xperia 1 III is beaten by the S21 Ultra, but they had still a good quality noneless.

                                      Since the Mk1, both the Xperia 1 and 5 always had 12Mp camera and nothing below, 12Mp was seen as the photography standard for a while and most DSLR I saw had this resolution.
                                      Except the Mi 11 Ultra, what other phone can say he didn't got under the 12Mp barrier in one of the 3 main sensor (Wide, Ultra-Wide, Telephoto), except Google and Apple who are both also known for their excellent photography quality on their phones and who also are at around 12Mp minimum rather than 48Mp or more.
                                      And this is not even considering how many premium phones lack a Telephoto to begin with.

                                        Xperia 5ii = 0.8 (1 and 1ii can reach 0.7, someone on youtube did it by playing with RGB levels)
                                        Find X2 Pro = 0.8

                                        Samsung = above 2.0

                                        Not even using colder profile helps.
                                        Samsung does on purpose because their clients like.

                                        Xperia gets same treatment given to those $30.000 sony oled monitors used by Sony Pictures. Not even Bravia gets such benefits.

                                        Not just cellphones, the LCD tvs from Sony and TCL offer much better image than Samsung.
