                    betabux, 20 Nov 2024What about the Pro Video update?The return of Video Pro feature update inside the new, ground-up Xperia camera app has indeed arrived. Just check Reddit and some links that are attached below. It's more simplified but the essence is the same though.

                      As I really liked my Oppo Find X2 Pro, just that the battery life wasn't great

                        What about the Pro Video update?

                          Anonymous, 20 Nov 2024Prepare to be underwhelmed, lol.You are acting like Sony Xperia rumour are the most stable leak in the smartphone realm in terms of confirmed specs when it's the one of the most unstable one. It always changed every time as I always watched them. Xperia leaks ain't Google Pixel leaks either deliberately or accidentally, Chinese brands phone constant teases that confirmed certain specs at a time. You need to wait the real deal the week it will be announce at best. So me, as Sony Xperia users for 13 years from Live with Walkman WT19i to Xperia 1 II, even don't know what Mark VII will ended up on their final specs.

                              Darth Caesium, 20 Nov 2024That's fair. I just find Sony's schedule hilariou... moreWell, I mean, Sony themselves already told GSMArena when 1 VI review and unveil were published here that the Android 15 update will release in Autumn timeframe, so they did delivered their promise, even if sound "late" by even enthusiast standard. Because Sony used to be so late with update before it changed very much in Android 7 Nougat update with Xperia X Performance and XZ. Just an additional info, October is their fastest month to deliver update and that was during Xperia XZ Premium and XZ2 series era. So October to December timeframe is their average update timeframe, hence just what they had told us. Sure, they could done better on frequency and rapidness but hey, they didn't broken promises on updating their devices since 2019. Sony UK have the list about it.

                                I wonder that GSMArena hasn't given any update about Xperia in a while and more focused about others, that once the Xperia news happened again here, people here bursted their frustrations and hatred for Xperia here at once. And then started to calm down again when there is none lol. Just a thought

                                  TheSnowWinterR7, 20 Nov 2024It is inline with the month of November that the Mark V (ex... moreThat's fair. I just find Sony's schedule hilariously slow even when they're not late to bring out updates.

                                    Darth Caesium, 20 Nov 2024Took them long enough.It is inline with the month of November that the Mark V (except 5 V) received Android 14 and Mark IV received Android 13 (except 10 IV) update though. The only time they were late was the Android 12 updates so far for all number series Xperia since 2019. Video Pro re-insertion to the 1 VI also factored on late November release instead early November.

                                      Bravosixgoingdark, 20 Nov 2024So promised video pro controls ?The Video Pro feature has returned in Android 15 update. More simplified one but the core content features remains the same as Video Pro found in Xperia Mark V
