Gino76ph, 18 Aug 2019On the verge of getting an an Xperia 1. But I'm curious to ... moreHello, i have the phone since july and i am very pleased with it. I have been a Iong time Sony fan but i am not a power user , so here are my 2 cents.
1. Yes you can turn off slide sense.
2. Unfortunately there is no dedicated night mode for taking photos or videos. I wish Sony would give a choice.😠
3. I rarely take selfies as i am not interested in the habits of this crazy world 😁😁. The camera has fixed focus and no gimmicks.
4. I never took a selfie during night 😂😂 time but i dont think there is. Are there any phones that have a flash with the selfie camera?
5. GSM arena review mentions that audio is recorded in stereo with a 156 kbps bit rate in any video mode.
6. The side sensor works for me like a charm. It never failed me so far. It is quite fast. Only when i have a wet finger it doesnt work properly.
7. It is prrety loud. 81 decibels are mentioned in the review. The Dolby settings can be turned on or off in audio settings.
8. I dont know about dark theme, there is a dark theme to choose from in the settings but i like light themes only and i never used the dark theme.
9. The battery is enough for me. I am not a power user so i get 2 days of usage.
In the link below there is a excellent review that will provide better answers. There are also many more.

On the verge of getting an an Xperia 1. But I'm curious to know:
1. Can i turn off the Slide Sense feature? (as many complained it's either non-responsive or downright useless)
2. Are there "night modes" on both cameras? (similar to Pixel, Huawei & OnePlus)
3. Is there autofocus, EIS/OIS and wide-angle thingy on the selfie camera?
4. Is there screen flash on the selfie camera?
5. What is the bitrate of the audio when recording something like 1080p @60fps for the front & rear cams?
6. Having no face unlock feature I heard the fingerprint scanner is slow and inaccurate at most. True?
5. Approx how loud (in dB) are the front-firing speakers? And can you turn on Dolby Audio when watching/listening to contents?
6. Is there a feature for full systemwide dark theme?
Help and advice please.

Balabakan, 13 Aug 2019I love sony brand but i never buying any sony phone before ... moreSony battery management is very good. The 1 gets the same battery life as the Samsung S10, and just a few hours less than the OnePlus 7 with its bigger battery. If you turn on Sony's battery conservation, it does a lot better.
Also, in my experience of about 7 Sony phones, their batteries are very long lasting.

GSM Technology does not need IMEI registration
like AT&T and Tmobile, so you can switch your SIM card freely.
CDMA technology needs IMEI registration
like Sprint and Verizon, SIM card needs to be paired with IMEI so you cant
just switch your SIM card , somehow it may work but most of the feature will not work like
data/internet.
thanks.

I love sony brand but i never buying any sony phone before due very expensive for me, but if i really want bought any sony phone the price is not matter for me, but when i look the spec on the batteries is not in my expectation. I hope sony can put higher mah for their smartphone. At least 4k mah in my suggestion. Overall ok including camera,software & etc but only the batteries very low.

Anonymous, 10 Aug 2019The problem will be with your carrier and its band frequencies. I have resolved. The problem was that IMEI was not registered in ATT prepaid account.
Once I registered my device's IMEI on the system, It works.
I hope it would be helpful for you guys.
