CCE, 24 Nov 2021In RAW just hope you have enough space, no SD-card on this S21You could just plug it into a computer And take the data off If you're paying this much for a camera Might as well allow the consumer to have the ability to do this

Where in the camera or gallery app did they remove the feature that shows us the resolution of the a photo? Explain it to me like I am a noob please, I want to be aware of which features they have been taking away from us because it will likely determine whether I stick with Samsung or not.

16-bit DNG RAW sound insane. Has anyone really played with the photos, and tried really pushing the highlights and shadows?

Does this app tell you the camera resolution that was removed in the One UI 3 camera app? Oh yeah, they also removed the ability to change resolution for photos and videos as well for me on One UI 3. All it tells you now is the aspect ratio.

SuuperBaka, 27 Nov 2021From the articles I've seen on Pixel Binning, I see th... moreIt completely depends on the software settings. Most manufacturers only let you shoot in binned resolution if you're capturing the images in RAW. Huawei, on the other hand, only lets you shoot in full resolution for RAW, and through the stock camera app only. A few Xiaomi phones (Mi 10 Ultra) allow 3rd party apps to capture RAW through Camera2API in both binned and non-binned resolutions, but I believe you need to modify the system settings through Magisk to achieve it.

Dometalican, 25 Nov 2021Why do you care about the marketing? That's literally ... moreI care cause it's just one more area they cut corners and money yet still charge more.
Brightness is usable most of the time but can fall short under extend days. And again it matches the brightness of 7-8 year old flagships. Legitely.
Audio is ok for that but again matches volume and quality of 2 year old phones. Dobly is nothing unique at this point and doesn't change that.
No aspect ratio is black bar free for all content. Sony is no exception.
Market and carrier availability is always an issue for Sony. Nothing new at all. And again one of the reasons they have poor sales and people don't know they exist.
What i said was complete and utter fact. They don't release the phone, they cut to many corners to save money, they are years behind in numerous aspects for it, and charge to much for it.
Plain and simple.

Brightness is fine bro. I can see the phone under the Florida sunlight. Can it be better? Yes. Is it UNUSABLE? No.
Audio is perfectly fine thanks to Dolby Atmos.
Aspect ratio gives me full screen unlike constant black bars from the others.
Availability, yeah, sucks, but I'm glad I got my hands on one. Blame the chipset shortage as well as the curious conflict of interest with Samsung making the 888 and upcoming Gen 1.

Dometalican, 24 Nov 2021Well let's see:
1. Less bloatware
2. Better option... moreWell unfortunately back here in reality you just made up a bunch of fan stuff.
"1. Less bloatware"
Actually the lack of boat is because of lack of regional and carrier availability. Which is a huge disadvantage for consumers.
And why most people don't even know sony phones exist and why their sales suck. Even more so then ask the areas they lack and are behind.
"2. Better options on caring for the battery (Samsung's One UI 4 finally copied Sony on this)"
Yeah samsung was a little late on the software options. But their battery technology and health are still top notch. And sonys has always been exaggerated.
"3. MicroSD card slot"
One of two only legit points.
"4. Headphone jack"
Two out of two only legit points.
"5. Front-facing stereo speakers"
What good does that do you of they can only match the volume and quality of two year old flagships?
"6. Aspect ratio that makes more sense for movies and gaming"
They are all narrow and make some sort of claim. Sonys is barely any different and nothing superior.
And what good does it do you when the brightness is matching that of 7-8 year old flagships????
"7. Natural photos vs overly processed colors of anti-reality"
Their processing is only natural on colors. Their processing is still high it's just more lazily done. Their processing has been behind the last decade. It has not been among the better since Ericson. It's not simple natural. It's just lazy and still processed. Only natural thing was colors.
"Not going to say the Xperia is perfect, but much better for my needs than the Galaxy."
Cause it's no where near perfect. And while I despise taking away headphone jacks and SD slot I'm also not paying more for a phone that's behind in display, battery, camera, speakers, marketing, and availability. Just cutting corners at every single corner. Yet charge way more while their spent way less.
As much as I like Sony and xperia I couldn't even justify $800 for these phones. $600 would be hard to swallow.
Why would I finance an upgrade after paying off my 2 year old $1100 device.... for a phone that would only be better in one or two ways but then only match or fall behind in every single other way???? Even at a reduced price of $800 that's stupid. Let alone $1300-$2500! For downgrades!
Which is a joke anyway because they are not even available through 90% of people's carriers anyway... which is again why their sales suck and people don't know they exist.
