      Really nice camera review. Zoom on telephoto isn't as bad as I expected. Impressed.

        I always try to charge partially, wait till the battery cooling down and then start again. Need patience of course.

          Sepfian, 11 Jun 2020Heard that fast charging killing the battery is just a myth. Some references, OPPO admits fast charging degrades battery life considerably

            It uses higher end fast charging technology not outdated inferior garbage USB PD on Sony.

            Inferior tech on 1200 euro brick.
            No wonder Sony is dying.

Now they eat their own words, contradicting from their previous statement. All those are just pure marketing statements, nothing more lol.

                At least its a good thing they bring it back.

                        Nick Tagataka, 14 Jun 2020I see, so you mean like QHD 120fps recording in HDR mode. ... moreno. 2k is 1080p+

                            but hey... its got only 60hz screen and doesnt do 8K video, so "its not up to the competition" and "not worth the price"...

                            Well, its absolutely up to the competition and worth the price... it just does different stuff, that is worth that price.

                              While I didn't like artifacts and dropped frames of the footage you linked, the fact that you can combine the super slow-mo and HDR and then shoot it in above-FHD resolution is technologically fascinating to see to say the least. I also realised by looking through the uploader's other videos that it can also shoot HDR video at 4K60 - now that's actually really impressive for a smartphone, given that S20 can only do 4K30 in the comparable mode. I wonder those HDR footages from Xperia 1 II have been colour graded before being uploaded onto Youtube or are straight out of the camera, though, because this would greatly affect the usability of this HDR recording feature.

                                Sepfian, 11 Jun 2020Heard that fast charging killing the battery is just a myth. If you want, you can open and read physics books. You would find a lot if things get clarified.

                                  Way too expensive for performance that is "just good enough."

                                    Stuff you ll likely to see in many documentary movies.

                                    And IMO, it looks great.

My comment is to do with the fact that they don't even allow users to record 240fps when they literally have dedicated video recording app to let them shoot however they want to. I'm not talking about the quality, like of course you'll experience a slight frame-level quality degradation if you compare 120fps and 240fps videos shot under the same lighting condition.

                                        Find 240fps video from an iPhone or whatever and put it on a timeline in Adobe Premiere and compare it with Sony's 120 fps.

                                        Then share with us your ideas on this, I won't preach you; I'll just tell you that some companies brag about 4k@60 and 8k@24 but their footage is not stabilized and its bitrate is hardly 80mbit/s (~10 megabytes per second), while a good still photo in 12mp is 4-5mb; I hardly can understand what there is to brag about, but some dumb people believe all that nonsense.
