If you want the best photos for social media, go for the Oppo X5. It is consistent in most cases and has extreme AI modulation before the end result. However, HDR and highlights can sometimes miss. If you want to take landscape shots as they are, with no processing, go for the Sony. Sony does tend to have some noise at low light and is not that great with shooting people.

    These two I've had. Your last pick I know nothing about.

      Since the last two patches no more overheating... and it seems now like the perfect phone.

                      hello, after several Samsung gamma s, I decided to test this phone, the battery life and performance is perfect and it is on top of Samsung, photos nothing special, in short it is a disappointment, it heats up a lot due to the processor. I don't buy sony anymore and I don't recommend it and the price is very exaggerated for the equipment.

Tbh I am not willing to bet on the 5 series again after the disappointing 5 III from which I want to upgrade. I think I will opt for the 1 V. Bigger but it's a better phone imo.

                          SoliTaire, 07 Jul 2023I like Sony Xperia but i'm confused between Galaxy... moredepends on what you want. Sony offers headphonejack, storage expansion, shutter button, pro-photo editing, 21:9 ratio, high ppi display. If that is what you search for, go for it.

                          What sony is not(!) good at is actually an "everyday allrounder". All other phones you mentioned can be picked up and they work. Take a photo and it will look great, watch media and it will be fine, listen to audio and you have it. Whereas with Sony you may(!) have to fiddle around with settings, but then again you will find much more settings on a sony to do so!

                          Also, S23 and Xiaomi 13 have better main lenses, meaning photos will be sharper. Most people prefer 16:9 displays on their phones, but if you are into watching 3 hour blockbuster movies on your phone 21:9 that sony offers is great.

                          The biggest Issue with sony is their update policy. You can expect 2 years of updates...that's it. Xiaomi guarantees 5 years (3 years Major updates + 5 years security updates), Samsung also 5 years (Major and(!) security). If you want a last longing phone, go for Samsung.

                          The Xiaomi also is the biggest and heaviest phone on this list. Dont buy it if you want a compact phone.

                                      It seems like Sony's put the 8 gen 1 because they didn't want people to buy cheaper for the better chipset.

                                      But anyways, why can't they make Xperia 1 IV (S) then?
