      stefano1, 30 May 2020Ok thanks, is there so much difference regarding the photos... moreAt these prices, there shouldn't be a huge gap but some noticeable things. Xiaomi goes for the basic processed effect while Sony is light on processing leading to a natural picture.
      Also you can change that if you don't like it on the Sony (via the Photo Pro app as said in the review). And if you like playing with settings, the Sony is clearly made for you.

        As a mi 9t user I have been tempted to compare the photos taken by gsmarena in the review of this sony xperia II with the photos from the mi 9t review.

        Honestly, I think they are the same quality, if not better those pictures taken with the mi 9t in some cases, a phone that has cost me 270 euros (128GB 6G RAM) !!

              I am especially interested in the photo and autonomy side, xiaomi mi 10 pro costs much less than the sony xperia 1 mark 2 but if sony is much higher I could also consider taking sony.
              Thanks

                stefano1, 30 May 2020sony xperia or xiaomi mi 10 pro? ThanksWhen first Xperia 1 was out, I was tempted to go for it, but the price, at least in my country was absurd, so went for a Mi 9T Pro instead. A friend of mine bought the Xperia, and I had the chance to play with both, head to head, and I can definitely say I don't regret my choice.
                Aside of the screen/phone size, Xperia 1 has nothing over Mi 9T Pro, the camera and battery are worse.
                And I think right now, the K30 Pro (Zoom) is a better buy, and it's my choice for my next phone later this year.

                    stefano1, 30 May 2020sony xperia or xiaomi mi 10 pro? ThanksI'd go for the Sony, I've used both Xiaomi and Sony and I enjoyed Sony more. But that's a matter of taste.

                    From the spec sheet, the Sony is a more complete phone. You may pay more, but you get more for sure.

                        All these complaint 60hz and 120hz can just stop. Qualcomm current chip couldn't support 4k and refresh rate above 60hz. So Sony give Motion blur reduction (Equivalent to 90hz) which is better than nothing and less battery hog. Watch how that stand up to 120hz

                              Ok il bite....What cutting edge ?

                                I can see some people are here trying to convince the potential customers to buy something else, I wonder if they are getting paid for it or are they so concerned about us to have the best tech possible!

                                Nevertheles, if you are considering this phone then listen to this. (SAMSUNG FAN HERE)

                                1. Display: The Phone has 4K resolution with no punch holes or notches means no dead pixels. No higher refresh rate but has motion blur which is equivalent to 90 hz. (It was done to preserve battery)

                                2. Audio: Best in class. Check Unbox Therapy's review. Dual Front Facing Speakers.

                                3. Battery: 4000 mAH of Sony is equivalent to 5000 of Samsung/OnePlus. You will see that in future battery tests.

                                RAM: Has 8 GB of RAM. If you have paid attention, last years 4 GB Iphone 11 and 6 GB Xperia 1 ii decimated 12 GB OnePlus. Samsungs 16 GB S20 ultra is not gonna be as fast as Sony's 8 GB Xperia just like 4 GB Iphone is sometimes faster than the S20 ultra.

                                Iphones dont have jaw-dropping specs, but they always deliver. Same case with Xperia, these are genuine products.

                                    Ultimate Reviewer, 29 May 2020Let me make this clear to all the Sony diehards in the comm... moreYou're right, actually. But price wise, if Sony can do 4K display with camera that can shoot 20fps with high speed autofocus and stereo sound recording in video, why other flagships can't? One is basically getting more features in similar price range as other flagships, plus with a high end headphone as a promo.

                                      Expensive.

                                      But a lot of the cutting edge technology this device has is yet to be seen among other smartphones.
