Photo Pro app has normal mode Basic that has Video/Photo button and it looks 99% the same as the competition app for photos (or stabdard Android app). When you choose Basic once, then Basic mode will be launch always when you start app (Basic mode is first mode when you first time launch phone after purchase).
Additional VideoPro, CienemaPro are extra apps for advance users (Pro mode in PhotoPro app too)

Anonymous, 27 Sep 2023Simply photo mode? XD Tell us what is hard or not simple in... moreYes, and the moment you open up either of the three of its camera app (Photo Pro, Video Pro, Cinema Pro) you would be bombarded with controls and information in which you would need a proper camera knowledge to navigate, not all people are photographers, some people just want to snap a photo and thats it. If they make more simple UI that you are greeted with upon opening the app (With a dedicated AI adjusting everything as needed) then adding a button to switch to the more complicated manual mode (Which deactivates most of the AI) where photographers can customize the photo/video settings to their hearts desire, this would’ve made it a bit more usable for your average joe.

Sony needs to make the Xperia 1, 5, 10 lineups more standard oriented and target it towards mass consumers by perhaps changing the ratio to 20:9 so it can support fullscreen Youtube videos without the black bars, and adding a simplified mode to its camera app. The Xperia Pro lineup should be the one that is highly specialized and is only aimed at a small percentage of professional users.

Relax. In 2025 China starts produce OLED with Sony/JD eLEAP technology (litography) and Samsung (who produce OLEDs on japan Canon machines) will have to adope to new market situation. They try to buy from japan SEL similar tech but at now there is no information about progress. I know, in your world Sony should bankrupt because they gave people choice and 21:9. Its no gonna hapend.

mariubrlu, 27 Sep 2023I don't think I can ever get used to that distorted sc... more21:9 is very good choice when we speak about VideoPro app because you got 16:9 preview "screen" horizontaly (without holes/notches nad UI) and 16:9 for UI verticaly (u got many place for convenient operation with hands/fingers).
Second. Most of Hollywood movies are recorded in 21:9 (anamorphic format).
When it comes to browsing the Internet, it's a matter of preferences (for me 18:9 is a little comfortable).
Samsung Flip series is 22:9 and no one cries.

mariubrlu, 27 Sep 2023I don't think I can ever get used to that distorted sc... moreStill, most of the film and television industry aspect ratio standard are either 4:3, 16:9, and 21:9 until now. Sure, 18:9 is also begin crawling in, I don't deny about it. However, do you forgot about Sony Pictures? Because, Sony has delved into film industry longer than they did with telecommunications industry, they know and follow industrial film standardization very strictly until now, and in times of ecosystem integration intracompany and standardization, what Sony did adhere is to transfered, interconnected and implemented every elements from other Sony division, something people has been asking for years after Sony has split up every division back to be independent to keep Sony afloat back then, especially about Xperia. Like they used to be independent, now they are working with every possible divisions like Alpha, CineAlta, Pictures, Entertainment, etc. Bringing 21:9 aspect ratio is one of them, as it's the last almost untouchable standard aspect ratio that's not been slandered because of trends. 16:9 has been slandered deeply, Sony like has no choice at that point.

I don't think I can ever get used to that distorted screen. While the standard today has moved from 16:9 > 18:9 (=2:1), Sony makes a cinema style screen with aspect ratio of 21:9 (=7:3).
This phone has a 6.1" advertised screen size while the usable area is only 5.1". You load up a UHD video from odysee and you realize that half of the screen is useless. The same goes with any kind of media content. The thing is that this is just a marketing technique to be able to put in the specs a bigger screen than what it actually is.
Physically, the device feels more like a remote control rather than an actual phone.

They should give 2 pcs for that price... moreExmorT (1V) has better video and HDR perfomance than iPhone 14Pro (I know that because I tested both). Do you want to make a bet with me? Go to Samsung/iPhone/xiaomi forum mister Samsung manager. I can put link to video and any video from samsung/iphone cant beat that (4K120fps low light).

notafanboy, 25 Sep 2023You don't seem to understand the difference between HD... moreYeah sure...
LucasN82 writing (23 sept): "HDR+/DV only adds dynamic metadata for brightnes"
Do not learn Sony how HDR should look, because:
1. In most reviews Sony OLEDs with normal HDR10 beat all Samsungs (with HDR10+) and even sometimes Pansonic.
2. Sony was the pioneer in HDR. First mobile HDR sensor was from Sony. Sony was co-creator of HDR technology
3. Last top movies like Avatar and Top Gun was recorded with Sony Venice camera.
Do even know that all LG OLED panels (TV) has RGBW structure and that structure is from Xperia P (it has RGBW LCD panel), that Xperia that most people laugh many years ago? You know why those panels has this structure? For HDR.

It's an utter disappointment. Looking for microSD and headphone jack, I'd suggest to get a A52s even if used. You'll really get 90% of this at 1/10th of this price. Trust me, it's unworthy paying over €900 for something with no telephoto camera and static refresh rates. If you pay so much for a phone but get barely little more out it's absolutely unworthy
