      Israelaje4, 26 Oct 2021I wish GSMArena could maybe get someone to work for them in... moreThey cannot review any phone without company's permission

        Calvin62, 26 Oct 2021Not even a day has passed since the Sony Xperia Pro-I annou... moreI wish GSMArena could maybe get someone to work for them in china and do Huawei Phone review it sucks so much not to know how the Huawei p5o pro performs i think it's due to the release to china only but they should please fine a way to do the review or have a branch in china I love Huawei so much I wish I could buy 1 here but it's unavailable

          It's looks cool but it's definitely not for me and too expensive and I bet with you it still won't be the number 1 in camera phone

            davidtb823, 26 Oct 2021Perhaps the most marketed camera sensor in the world (Sony)... moreZeiss is the glass on top of the sensor .

              Calvin62, 26 Oct 2021Not even a day has passed since the Sony Xperia Pro-I annou... moreThat came from the brand itself. They are responsible for sending out the review unit. Most brands, including Sony, always send pre-production models with pre-production software to reviewers.

                Not even a day has passed since the Sony Xperia Pro-I announcement and GSMArena hands-on review is ready. What about the Honor Magic3 series and Huawei P50 series?

                  This is EXTREMELY impressive. It's a total game changer in my opinion. This is up there with the effect of the Google Pixel 2's machine learning prowess and the Apple iPhone 13 photographic styles flexibility. These main camera shots crush everything else to date. Unfortunately, I have no intention of spending $1800 on a phone.

                    This is it !
                    Magnificent phone from Sony !
                    I have the Sony Xperia 1 ii Lake Green Limited edition and it os just wow but this new Sony Xperia Pro-I it is just Amazing !

                        Nice varied hardware. Top spec. Be good to see how the camera performs to the top lot.

                          Irony oh irony...the world so admired Sony cameras but Sony itself uses Zeiss camera. LOL! This phone breaks the bank.

                            Remember when you thought 1000 was expensive for a phone?

                            No thanks.

                              Astonishing!
                              But for me who likes to take the best (Sony Xperia 1 III) it is too close.
                              The most important is the tel / internet part, screen (large) and audio. There it does not change and for 95% of people the photo of 5 III and 1 III are sufficient.
                              If I take it there will always be a lag, wanting the 1 IV when, maybe the Pro-I 2 would follow (?). The "I" is the I of Imaging and not Mark 1 ...
                              In Japan the Sharp Aquos R6 is a bit of the same

                                davidtb823, 26 Oct 2021Perhaps the most marketed camera sensor in the world (Sony)... moreWell they try with horrendous 'fake' G-Lens before with previous Xperia, abysmal lens quality.

                                Zeiss are main partner with their actual camera lineup & known as high quality lens glasses, so why not?

                                  Perhaps the most marketed camera sensor in the world (Sony) and they use...Zeiss?

                                    AnonD-1014095, 26 Oct 2021Lmfao..... yea really trolllllllwell actually that has always been the most common complaint but sony is not doing anything with it. if I am a photographer and want full manual and sophisticated controls, I wouldn't use a phone to begin with. Heck a pixel 5 with a four year hardware takes better photos in point and shoot than the xperia 1 iii.

                                        I feel like this is a phone that we will se in a "Flashback" article in a few years
