Overall, I'm glad Sony boosted the computational photography on the Xperia.

But both Apple and Samsung found ways to make photos and videos look just as amazing, and at times more so, than Sony does without the extremely high price - I mean, a grand or $1,200 is still a lot. The S23 Ultra and iPhone 14 Pro don't have either. Yes, the Xperia is the only phone I'm aware of, aside from last year's model, with a 4K 120Hz refresh rate display and a telephoto camera with lens elements that move like an actual camera lens. In fact, the Xperia 1 V has done something unthinkable: It made the $1,200 Samsung Galaxy S23 Ultra seem like a deal. If your eyes sting a bit from that number, you're not alone. The Xperia 1 V costs $1,400, which converts roughly to £1,110 or AU$2,070. Sony pushed its state of the art hardware to another level by embracing more computational photography like Apple, Google and Samsung.īut there is a drawback that overshadows all these niceties. And I'm impressed with nearly everything, especially the cameras.

I've been using a preproduction Xperia 1 V on loan from Sony for about a week. All information is presented without any warranty or guarantee to you.
