You need source/video in HDR+ to display that on screen. Sooo once again. HDR+ from Samsung camera will have better dynamic range than normal HDR from.. FX3 camera?
I see you watching HDR+ films in ultra sunny day?
DxoMark means nothing for me. Thats all.
I work with hiend displays and cameras.

You seriously need to stop mixing up camera HDR with the display HDR
Computer & TV monitors also don't need to be as bright as phones because they are never used outdoors. Whereas peak brightness is the number one metric on a phone display. You can stop your futile arguments because it's clear as daylight you do not understand display technology at all.

Currently Xperia can record HLG and display HLG BT.2020/2100 with extreme quality.

TheSnowWinterR7, 20 Sep 2023Hopefully 10 VI fixed everything that was wrong with 10 V, ... moreThe biggest issue with this is that if they put stereo speakers, like they have, a slightly better chipset, and a high refresh rate amoled display - no one would go for the 5 lineup. I honestly believe they should come out with two phones per year. The 1 should be the flagship, and the 10 should be a slightly underpowered, smaller midranger.

N1GH7, 15 Sep 2023thanks. I already considered both zenfone and s23. I am wil... moreYou are right that video you posted does not look legit (looks like same video with different exposure posted 3 times), as for the s23, my friend has one, me being cameraman, i picked it up and immediately start playing with the camera, i wasn't impressed with the camera system overall except for that 50 mp shooter, the amount of detail was amazing. Video recording not impressed (my cousin iphone 12 has better stabilization and details and exposure)
As for the zenfone 9/10, i dont own it, idk any1 who does, from every review ive seen, the only weak point of the phone is the camera system ( coz of the size of the phone, they are limited as to what kind of optic they can put on the phone, notice there`s no telephoto).
For me if the phone doesn`t have sd card its a deal breaker, so both zenfone and s23 fall aside, and ill go for a sony, but the 5 iii (i can get it used for 300 euro) coz 1000 euros for a phone is insane,ill throw 500 more and buy a used car, and get more utility out of it, but if you have money to burn go for it.

Anonymous, 13 Sep 2023Why won't they release a North America version??? Ugh.... moreSony has a slightly if not entirely, bad relationship with the USA regarding its phone because the USA is the country where its signature-side power key + fingerprint sensor combo patent was denied in 2015, disabled for all 2015-2017 Xperias with FPS, and happened after the deals with carriers fell through with the Z4v and remained that way until 2017 before moving to back in 2018, moving to side but decoupling the function in 2019, and returning to the way it was in 2020 with a newer patent. The fingerprint and power key combo was granted to Apple in 2017 (https://www.gsmarena.com/apple_granted_patent_for_fingerprint_reader_on_the_power_key-news-25582.php) and made Sony unpleasant. Political things and factors, I said. Sony tried everything to please them, but the US just doesn't care, so Sony is probably responding by not making 5 V available in the USA officially, at least for now.

LucasN82, 17 Sep 2023Sooo HDR 10-bit in FX3/FX6 camera is not real HDR? :D
Man ... moreNobody is talking about the camera, I'm talking about the display.
This is being marketed as 21:9 movie phone yet the display only boosts to 900 nits (Samsung AMOLED easily 1200+) and doesn't support Dolby Vision and HDR10+
Google the difference between HDR10 and HDR10+, the "+" sign matters.

not only too expensive, because sony apparently has no or only useless processor and phone cooling (my experience) they throttle the processor clock frequency, and even with that the sony things getting very warm :-(,
what a pity, i liked the sony smartphone very much

Man start reading and improve knowledge. You even dont know what HDR means. HDR is dynamic range of sensor (dynamic range of smartphone sensor and full frame sensor will be different even without HDR) or how much LEVELS of brightness (colors) can display holds/achive.
At now, Xperia 1V (on 24mm) has the best HDR video recording on the market.
You even dont know that allmost all smarpthones records colors with compression (4:2:0) and Long-GOP mode soo that dynamic tone mapping is only marketing.
When I records something most of time I lock exposure (brightness) to make sure that exposure desnt change in different brightness regions.

Sad that it's like that over there. I guess a lot of it comes from the woke ideology that has plagued most of the west.

Why would you not include a 256GB option on every market when you have a 48MP main camera?
Even if it's a last resort cost cutting option to just have one storage option... there are regions where 256GB is available. I really don't understand this strategy.
Make me pay more for 256GB! Give me this option at least!
Another thing is of the lack of a zoom lens... Ok the variable zoom lens is too big... Why not just a fixed 70mm? Series 5 was always a smaller but stil higher spec phone, now it's not cheap not high spec... worst of both worlds.
All I want is a Xperia 1 V but shrunken down to 6.1", can be the same price. Call it Xperia 2 V

Now, you are limited to Saturn stores, as Munich has, which import the cheapest Chinese phones. Germany hates software and automation because the technology fails its Socialist agenda of keeping permanently employees at work with once in a lifetime training.
