Why don't Sony make a phone with really thin bezels I don't get them. Don't they wanna make money don't they wanna sell more phones? I wonder if their worried about the phone not looking Sony enough if the bezels are all thin. This company has the tech and design their probably more smarter than Huawei yet their letting Huawei beat them in the technology world something Sony have been in for years. Come on Sony release one phone with thin bezels atleast and watch your market share increase dont be stubborn like NOKIA and ignore market forces then lose control of your business.

A smart Shooter, 09 May 2019AI side sense is much better and intuitive without remember... moreI have no comments about Sony Side Sense as never use it. But most of the reviewer they accidentally open it a lot by mistouch, and immediately turn off that feature.
What so hard about gesture navigation? Its a 3 steps only. Edge swipe to left to go back if your right handed (swipe right if left handed), swipe from bottom to home, swipe from bottom & hold for recent task. Thats it. I master it less than five minutes on Mate 20. Definitely not going back to old school 3 dot navigation. Suddenly my big Mate 20 doesnt feel so big after that one-handed gesture used.
Thats why Android will ditch the Pill Gesture, its kind of useless when u still have back button & has to stretch your hand to tap it if the phone big or taller ratio, kills the one handed usage. When Sony follows, i know suddenly u'll love it.
And i'm always keeps my mind busy, life as an Architect by the way.

Shui8, 08 May 2019As i numerously explain before, base on my own experience, ... moreAI side sense is much better and intuitive without remember some of the gesture, AI side sense show the usually used apps, swipe down the side sense also can go back last page and when in camera double tap side sense can trigger the shooting button. It also can turn off or makes two sides edge work with it. Android's Gesture should have a choice to turn off or edit the settings, it get benefits if doesn't need too much gesture to remember, probably less than 5 gesture are my recommendation. If 10 gestures setup it makes mind busy.

Why did they move the camera down like that? Having the lens at the edge (as in the older models) is a great feature to get pictures in tight spaces (have you ever tried to use you camera to look under furniture, for instance).

Curse you Sony!! Why do you take such a long time to release this phone? People all over the world are eagerly waiting for it and there is not a single news from the company regarding exact date of release. Come on!!! At least just give us a date so that we can plan whether to wait or jump to another brand.

In fact, they are the most muted/natural colors on a flagship phone nowadays. Gone are the days oversaturate image like last P20 Pro. XZ2 Premium & XZ3, S10, Pixel 3 are more saturated than Huawei does now. Contrast on Huawei are higher (not as Pixel does with crushed shadows), but maintain without white clippings & retains highlights. I'll take the dramatic image than the dull result as Xperia does. Been use to Sony & Huawei, i'll lean more onto Huawei's Leica imaging. Again, to each his own. And i always send as document in Whatsapp if got good quality image with no compression going on.
Yup Sony Engineer said about the HDR improvement, but i would not believe it until final results emerge (dissapoint by their mouthtalking & ad before).
While on the other news, Android Q will ditch the Pill gesture & replace it with full screen gesture navigation, just as Huawei does now. Means that Sony will follow suit with their Android Q device. Seems like they agree that big phone or tall ratio phone works best using gesture navigation, when u said otherwise. I know u'll love it when Sony implement that gesture.

Xperia 1 brings HDR improvement when other competi... moreThose competitor's HDR tend to shift the color, it isn't the good HDR because it shift the color like 'avatar' especially the AI camera from Huawei. I have see many sample from Huawei recent phone, their AI color algorithm is far from natural! The true to real life photo should not have oversaturate color and over processing highly contrast, it makes the image looks over-processing, while the over-sharpening is a bit hit or miss, I see the image is very sharp in WhatsApp. WhatsApp, the app always scale down the image and tend to lost some of the sharpness, so Slightly added sharpness maybe should be fine.
Sony camera software engineer say the real HDR should keep the same EV and retain the more details/texture, I can found the sunlight/spotlight area have retain more details and actual colors in day and night scene and it doesn't lost the detail or shift color like those competitor.

The duo Mate 20 is flagship, duo P30 is flagship, trio S10 & Iphone Xs (R) is flagship. P30 lite is the mid ranger of P30 series. Honor top end will always cheaper than vanilla P & Mate series, share some high end items, therefore called as 'flagship killer', a direct competitor to Oneplus.

Hopefully a lot of Auto HDR triggered on a selected scene, especially low lights, so it can looks 'Avatar' world when u describe about other excellent device.
That scene on P30 video? Yeah a bit overblown on the background as its focus on the foreground. Not being a nitpicky, but overall results is still great & flagship worthy.
Theres a Honor 20 Pro leaks just now, which has Sony IMX586 with OIS, 48mp 1/2.0" sensor size, 1.75 micron pixel size on pixel binning 12mp. That hardware alone a lot better than Xperia 1 smaller 1/2.6" sensor size, measly 1.4 micron pixel size. Software a different story though, cant wait for both results. - https://m.gsmarena.com/newscomm-36926.php

Almost all Xperia from X series have 120Hz as long they have at least 1080p screen.
So, even XA2 has 120Hz.
But is disabled by kernel, because it spends more battery.
XZ2 Premium uses 144Hz WRGB LCD ( Xperia P was first WRGB screen).
