Camera performance is on par with s24u and pixel 9 pro xl but definitely not on the same level as x100u

      I seriously start suspecting battery testing here is not close to real life usage... by a significant margin

        TheSnowWinterR7, 04 Oct 2024HELP!? Not people arguing intensively about Sony Xperia 1 V... moreAll that.

        And a sense of style.

        And, well, the screen calibration, the color accuracy, the two-step camera button (not that you've mentioned the details), the gorgeous front-facing speakers, the ability to add 1.5 TB, the 3.5 jack for professional headphones (true, they need an adapter), the clean Android experience, the perfectly design of the screen (with no camera-island or similarly ridiculous nonsensical marketing strategies) and so much more.

        I must repeat myself: did you know that the image sensors on iPhones are Sony sensors? That should give you a sense of perspective and the chance to tone it down a little. And, also, the chance to spend your last year's economies on a new iPhone.

        Dixit.

            HELP!? Not people arguing intensively about Sony Xperia 1 VI being mentioned detailed out of the blue in the scene here (the scene here is being the iPhone 16 Pro Max's review page) here because of its battery life test of GSMArena (17:27 hr) 😭 What will be next? Xperia's camera button? Xperia's signature blocky, flat design? 🫠😵‍💫

But my Samsung Galaxy S24 Ultra always my first one to take pictures irrespective of the conditions though it gives more saturated and vibrant (dynamic range) look, it still beats iPhone 15 Pro Max in many instances. But iPhone Video Capturing really the best compared to Samsung S24 Ultra. For Still photography, I prefer Samsung.

                          I love how in the competition section you've added only Apple devices, come on, some android ones still could give Apple a run for their money! Nevertheless, as extensive a review as always, thank you!

                                I've owned 15 Pro Max since launch and not once in a year i thought wish i have more memory.

                                Why would Apple add more RAM which make phone more expensive when it's not needed, doesn't make any sense?

You defend something that is not beneficial to consumers with a logic that is wrong. There are tons of pages on the web that explain faster charging doesn't damage the battery and there is none supporting your comment and yet you mocking others for saying the facts! No one is telling you to buy from other brands, just don't spread misinformation.(and maybe try reading about things before commenting about them)

                                      It also happens while charging, but 10 Minutes of the phone getting warmer doesn't really do more towards degrading your battery than 10 Minutes of gaming.

                                        I’d agree moderation on this site is uneven at best, but just take a look at this thread, easily 70% of it is critical of this device and by extension Apple. And so far this is one of the more balanced Apple threads on the site.

                                        🤦‍♂️
