Sony Xperia 1 V unveiled with Exmor T stacked sensor, 4K OLED display

11 May 2023
The new sensor should be twice as good as its predecessor in low light.

It had better come with more than 12MP (or 48MP if it's QB), though - Increased photodiode light sensitivity means they can pack more pixels into the same area without increasing the noise level at higher ISO settings. Something like a 100MP QB sensor would be nice.

      Anonymous, 11 May 2023And the rest, what is excuse? No excuse. Just you making a fan oriented exaggerated post. They all borrow features from each other and samsung was the first at many things too.
      You never had a point to begin with. In fact you prove the point so bad that every Sony page is littered with the biggest knight defending crowd because that comment was playing the middle ground saying neither side cares about the other but you still had to try and make a righteous fan fight out of it.

                  These are beautiful phones. But the only meaningful question about them is: When is Sony going to offer more than two years of Android and security updates? Sony was always lame on this account, but now that most companies are offering up to five years of security updates, it's inexcusable. For a $1000+ phone, making it obsolete in two years is absurd (and incredibly wasteful).

Whatever features or specs it has, they aren't very useful when it overheats in just less than a few minutes. Often it couldn't even handle one minute of shooting video before camera app shuts itself down from overheating.

                      How is the WiFi calling and VoLTE supported on T-Mobile in the U.S. ? The previous version sure had a bad rep for it.

Whereas for the XZ Premium every region had it from June - early July.

                        They should be focussing more about the US market, especially considering that they make phones specifically for the US like the Xperia PRO.

                                      Anyone else a bit disappointed with the textured back and ridged sides? I prefer a smooth phone because it’s easier to clean. So much dirt is going to get trapped in there!
