Sony Xperia 1 IV Review: A different approach to mobile photography
Источник: XDA Developers EN→RU
In a sea of similar-looking and feeling smartphones, I have a natural respect and fondness for Sony for thinking outside the box, for sticking to its guns, for zigging where others zag. To be honest, I still think something like the Google Pixel 6 Pro or the Vivo X70 Pro Plus can grab a better shot most of the time, but I like that the Xperia 1 IV challenges me to make the adjustments needed to find better exposure in a shot. But in between the still sub-par battery life (caused by the unnecessary 4K display), thermal issues, and a very high $1600 retail price, the Xperia 1 IV is hard to recommend to anyone but enthusiasts. The price has rightfully garnered some scoff from those who follow smartphone news, but honestly, people into cameras won’t be deterred by the price, because camera gear is expensive. My 20mm lens for my Sony camera alone is $1,200. A brand name Manfrotto tripod can easily go for $800. A camera bag, $300. To that group, $1600 for a phone isn’t high. But that group is a niche, and the Xperia 1 IV is a niche phone.

Despite all these flaws, we found the Sony Xperia 1 IV an appealing smartphone with great potential and skills, especially when in the hands of camera professionals. We believe Sony will work out some of the throttling issues as this is a pre-production phone, and every aspect of it is worth it. We really liked this Xperia in spite of its issues, and we see no reason why not to get one. If you find it complicated or overengineered or cannot forgive some of its shortcomings, look elsewhere.

80% Sony Xperia 1 IV review: unapologetically Sony
Источник: Phone Arena EN→RU
The Sony Xperia 1 IV is meant to be the one-stop Sony flagship for 2022. Packed to the brim with cutting-edge hardware and the latest features Sony has to offer. It’s not quite over-the-top like the Xperia PRO-I, with its 1.0-type sensor, but it’s obvious that the Xperia 1 IV is flying very close to the super-premium PRO-I. Sony wants this to be a smartphone for creatives, and that’s immediately apparent when you see that there are three different camera apps and a plethora of manual controls. Its 120 Hz, 4K display and meaty stereo speakers are there to help you enjoy any media you may wish. The light weight and grippy design make it an excellent everyday carry. And it’s kind of amazing that Sony keeps the headphone jack on its phones, despite the fact that the company has a plethora of wireless headphones that it would probably be more than happy to sell to you. I know, it’s weird, but I have to give props that this very basic connector is included on this very premium phone. However, at the asking price, it’s kind of hard to recommend the Sony Xperia 1 IV.

It just doesn’t seem fair. You shouldn’t get plaudits from reviewers year after year saying you’re "one of the most-improved phone brands" … without eventually becoming an easily-recommendable phone brand. But when it comes to smartphones, Sony is the opposite of easy. I’m Michael Fisher and this is a very early preview of the Sony Xperia 1 IV.
