Here is a review of the latest Xperia 1 VII and how it compares to the predecessor:

Sony Xperia 1 VII Design and Display

If it’s not broken …

Express phones barely change shape and size, but you won’t complain to us about it. They are with slim, beautiful, thin bells and grieving frames. Expertia 1 VII is also not exempt. The ribs across the aluminum frame are moving, which makes it very easy to grip, the gorilla glasses have excellent dimple on the back of the glass, which makes it a unique feeling, and the forehead and the chin are extremely thin, the front of the front display.

The right frame of the phone has a volume rocker, a very sharp fingerprint scanner power button, and a two -step shutter button. This is not a camera button equipped with a sensor as Apple has recently begun to make them-this is a classic camera key that feels fine and is placed where you expect someone to be added to the camera.

Three colors, Sony Official Image

It comes in three colors – Mass Green, Orchid purple, slate black. Green and purple people look quite fun, and we lie if we said that we are not disappointed that our test unit is black. It is being said, we cannot deny that it looks incredibly stylish and beautiful.

Box content? What is that?

Well, some good news here and some bad news. The bad news is, as default, the Xperia 1 VII does not bring much inside the box. Phone and cable – Just. The good news is, in some markets, you can now order it to bund it with the best Sony WH-1000xm5 headphones. This will definitely help reduce the salty price tag.

Sony is of great importance to the quality of its display – Express phones are proud to market as the devices devices of visual content creators. Out of the OLED panel box comes out with colors, but if you want to tone them and go to “realistic” – choose the creator’s method. It looks soft on the eyes, colors are firmly and for a lifetime, and not only to edit the video but also in ordinary long sessions on the phone.

Of course, this is a 120 Hz panel. Unlike other manufacturers, Sony does not trap “peak shine” numbers, which often means nothing. But that’s right, we usually measure ourselves. Here they are:

20 % measure the brightness of the APL screen when about 20 % of the pixels are firing completely instead of having a white image on the entire screen. Basically, it makes it more closely immersed to watch the original images or video, and the result is the best here in the north of 2000 nets. We are also pleasant this time with the least brightness – the use of bedtime is more than 1 nut or below. You will also see that the colorful reproduction is very low from the other expensive flagships shown here.

Sony Xperia 1 VII Camera

Cherry, cake, whole food

Despite its impressive hardware, Xperia 1 VII could not score much like another flagship in our camera test. Common issues were not contradictory exhibitions, some visible samples, no HDR previews, and no super stability solutions for video (though there is AI mode to follow articles in the process).

Sony has recently been barking – he added 3 different Pro camera apps to the Experiences and put an additional work in the auto mode of a camera app. But it appears that it is a bit behind in the game. For example – in sample 3 birds have doubled due to HDR algorithm which caused the images to be done properly together (or may the shutter be too slow?). This is a problem we have not seen in the years, and nowadays, it is only expected to take place on the admission level phone. Sample 4 looks very strange with background addresses that are out of attention – they look very fast. Zoom may be optical, but 5x and beyond beyond it seems soft and noise.

The good news is that a very wide camera takes great pictures. Apparently, the lens is not at all … Ultra wide, it shows as 0.7x in the app. By our calculations it should be like 0.65x according to the quality of the smartphone. In any case, the lens itself improves the distortion in its design, so there is little work of software. And it looks-the most wide shots look epic and crisp, even toward the edge of the picture.

Bokia Mode (Sony’s portrait format) is very irrelevant and we have gone astray. And the selfie camera is fine? A little maximum and there with some pink cast.

Generally, the camera can have a very impressive hardware and can produce fine pictures … but okay € 1,499 is not so good for the phone.

Sony Xperia 1 VII Performance & Benchmark

Elite Snap!

Don’t you want us to have some skills in the PlayStation here?

Equally of modern smartphones, Xperia 1 VII collided with 3,000 and above the Gack Bench – you know, comfortable animals. It scrolls and opens high -speed apps like modern competition, no complaints!

GPU’s performance

And in the department graphics, you can definitely enjoy the modern titles that are currently launching. Delta Force, Warfam, What’s the time to survive!

Sony Xperia 1 VII Software

Sony this time has promised 4 years of Android updates with a 6 -year security patch, which improves the past 2/4 years of promises. Nevertheless, how fast these updates get into the flagship experience, it also makes a difference. So, we will keep an eye on it.

In addition, the software is quite clean than any AI Shenianis. You’ve got Gemini, so it all depends on Google. You will find only one place in a new camera mode for AI. And it is a debate that the phone needs AI for it because they have been doing this for years, but I dig.

It does not pay very fast – about 50 % in half an hour, and you need an hour and a half on the wire for full charge. This is not a bad time, not at all, but if you have been damaged by the existing flagship that can get 50 % in 10 minutes, you will need to plan yourself a premature charging session.

Hopetics are very good – fast, accurate, but a little bit. When talking with the phone, they do a great job as feedback, but when calling the thick layers of clothing is not surprising to vibration.

The sound comes in the loud voice through the front -speaking speakers, and it contains an amazing amount of the boss. They may be slightly mud in the middle of the box, but it is appropriate to activate the Dolby Sound option from the settings. Generally, definitely there in a smartphone speaker there, but not at all (crown still belongs to the old ROG phone 7).

Sony Xperia 1 VII Not a bad phone. On the contrary – this is great. Hand design and feeling is great. Bluat low software is always fresh air breath. The screen is good and the speaker is beyond decent. And you get a headphone jack and microSD card slot, which is considered luxury nowadays.

There are two points that make it difficult to recommend this phone.

There is a price – £ 1,399 / € 1,499 for 256 GB. Yes, of course, some markets are bundled with Experia 1 VII Sony Wh-1000xm5 headphones, which are best and quite expensive themselves. But what will happen if you don’t want a headphone or get them in your area?

Secondly, this phone is a serious sale point camera. And, sorry, but this is not the same. That’s fine, but I won’t recommend the fine camera phone in € 1,499.
