Only downside is software updates otherwise it's one of the best smartphone on the market. It's not that ridiculous for what you can get. Especially if you take a lot of photos it's an amazing compact camera setup and amazing screen.

      Tbh I probably would've considered getting this if their pricing wasn't so outrageous.

            Anonymous, 23 May 20231) OIS is not for video, EIS is. 2) 120fps does not requi... moreIt does require stabilisation even on 4k120. You are clearly have no idea what you are talking about. Maybe you don't need it when you stand still without moving a muscle. Otherwise footage will look shaky. Just buy it and try it. Your opinion will change.

            Sony has DSLR cameras. One for example Sony α900 or Sony Alpha A200K 10.2MP Digital SLR Camera.

            Ofcourse it has amazing sensor and I'm super excited that reviewers noticed that auto mode on sony improved as well. Now with good software(talking about auto mode) it's top 3 cameras available on phone. Using manual mode it's probably the best on the market. Curious to see this beast in my hands

                Also, 1 series has more storage, more ram, periscope compared to 5.

                  2) 120fps does not require stabilization.
                  3) you do not understand, exmor T tech increases light sensibility, it allows this 1/1.42" to grab almost as much light as 1". No brand is gonna have it in the next 12 months. Not even Apple. Imagine a small 1/2.5" that could match a larger 1/1.7".
                  4) sony does not make dslr, just mirrorless

It would be superb with OIS but sadly it doesn't support it. Anyway it's cool that sony supports this for some people It could be a deal breaker.

                    I doubt you would notice anything wrong with samsung 30x zoom(apple is probably the worst flagship with zoom photos so I'm not even talking about them).

                    The exmor T sensor is cool but it's not that big difference between ISOCELL HP2 and IMX803. It can give more natual look to the shoot without OS optimizations but otherwise all three are great.

                    S Cine tone is exclusive feature of sony DSLR so no one is surprised that is there lol.

                    And what do you mean by saying " And till when having less features = better?" ?

                          I've never noticed anything related to battery draining on new androids. Mine s23u standby time is great. 10 hours and 4% lost. My friend uses z flip 4 and huawei p30, iphone 13 pro they have 3-7% battery drain too. So it's pretty usual. What kind of device did you had with battery standby issues?

If you are talking about 3.5mm jac... moreYeah it's amazing not to have cheap expandable redundant SD storage and headphone jack :D I love not having the option to use it anymore with almost any nice phone. It's great using battery life for spotify and bluetooth. I really loved using S20FE, and needing not to forget my USB-c to 3.5 adapter, if I dared to use my audiophile grade wired headphones instead of the BT ones.
                              Samsungs are ok but the amount of spyware that drains the battery is impressive.

If you are talking about 3.5mm jack or/and micro SD card it's not essential for most people. I don't have friends who misses these two things neither am I. And these features were removed a while ago. If I missed something that they removed last year or this year please correct me.

                                  Actually apple borrows more features from samsung than vice versa. Same with google they are including features from ONE ui. One of the new features of google "The ability to set different volume levels has already been available for Galaxy users for quite sometime" . This is pretty normal for manufacturers to borrow some things from one phone to another. It's a win win for people like us. Greedy is everyone. Just look at the market how pricey new flagships are. Even oneplus is super pricey nowadays. At least samsung gives features than no else does for example: s pen and dex. I'm using both and they are stunning to be honest. I know It's not for everyone but they always have something outstanding compared to others. I think we all can agree that samsung is android apple. They are pricey but at least they give you support for 5 years(flagships. Starting from s21 series), feature packed phones, many accessories and fast fixing major security issues called "Zero-day issues".
