Welp_im_damned,

I mean mediatek is capable. We see that they are using vivo’s x100 series but not the ultra.

Welp_im_damned,

While good sensors it seems like Samsung is just content with just staying in the mid to low-end segment.

Welp_im_damned,

I recommend you guys also watch the video. But here is my consensus after watching a few of these videos. Comparing the vivo x100 series and the xiaomi 14 ultra

The vivo is more consistent but also more phone like ie pixel output. Tbf the vivo is what the pixel output should be.

The Xiaomi is more camera esquc and less consistent. But tries to be more like film and less digital.

Welp_im_damned,

I don’t think most people would disagree let alone experts. The issue with vivo’s/Google’s style of output is that it’s hard to get right. With the current pixels they mess up hard because the moment you try to crop the entire image falls apart. This has been an issue with the pixels since the 5.

Welp_im_damned,

I’m talking about afterwards. Because in the viewfinder it looks fine. But after it’s done post processing. It somehow loses detail as if they applied a dehazing filter to the photo. Idk how Lemdroid deals with compression but here is an example.

Pixel 7 pro

Welp_im_damned,

Sorry when, I mean crop. I’m talking about viewing the photo in full screen mode/zooming in to fit the screen in landscape mode. That’s when I noticed these kind of weird effects happening like dehazing, over sharpening and this kind of loss of detail

The photos were taken like 1 minute apart and the clouds are in the same position. Xperia was more true to the scene as in it was a hazy day. While the pixel was more true to the color science of the moment.

Welp_im_damned,

Probably better battery life?

Welp_im_damned,

Other than moto Samsung has been the only one developing desktop mode for Android.

Welp_im_damned,

There rn and doing it smh

Welp_im_damned,

Leaked documents from Samsung

What logic does Samsung think that it’s a good idea to destroy an entire phone just because of it using a third party part.

Welp_im_damned,

No not really. Maybe the early access is paywalled. But that’s usually it.

Welp_im_damned,

Honestly they don’t have to lower the price. If they just opened up the software I would make the jump.

Sony already does this and doesn’t do the stupid camera drm anymore now.

Welp_im_damned,

You have been able to buy Sony phones unlocked and able to get the bootloader. But with the IV/V Sony lock it because of Verizon. https://lemdro.id/pictrs/image/a1b7d946-2f4f-4002-a396-62e9efd6bb5d.png

There are ways to bypass it on xda.

Welp_im_damned,

Sony will do the bare minimum that they are forced to. So 5 years due to the EU. Repairability idk about that. Parts are hard to source outside of Asia for Xperia phones.

Welp_im_damned,

I hope they improve the amp for the jack at least.

Welp_im_damned,
  • The naming is dreadful. What comes after the Xperia 1? Why the Xperia 1 II of course! I swear only their console division is capable of clear and sensible naming.

Their phone division is run by their camera division and unfortunately the naming makes sense in that situation

  • They’ve fallen seriously behind in software support. This will be mitigated by EU legislation forcing longer support, but it’ll still be behind Samsung/Google.

I think only Samsung and Google are doing 7 years of updates. Plus fun fact Sony releases Asop builds of newer versions of android 3 years after eol. But for some reason they won’t extend updates for their gms roms https://lemdro.id/pictrs/image/fb737914-22cf-4dfc-b367-9fa2258ac4ab.png

Welp_im_damned,

They removed the drm on phone released after 2019 with the start of the current Xperia 1/5/10 lineup.

Welp_im_damned,

Supposedly 5 years due to the eu

Welp_im_damned,

There was the Sony Xperia 5 series which is smaller than the 1

Welp_im_damned,

I think so except for certain Uwb radios if I remember correctly.

Welp_im_damned,

Yes if you get the global one since the ones that are the Japanese carrier/us model
