Xperia 1 ii vs note 20 ultra - Sony Xperia 1 II Questions & Answers

So I've just bought both to try as I did already have the xperia ii once already but sent it back as I thought the note would be better ?
I have both side by side playing the same hdr video and the xperias quality with the display is amazing compared to the note 20 ultra can someone explain how as the note is ment to have the best display on the market?
Even the brightness isn't a big jump between them both again considering the note is ment to be over twice as bright as the xperia
Granted the note is a bigger display but everything looks yellowish on it and I've set it to cool in the display settings aswell
And the 120hz to me in my opinion doesn't make a massive difference over the xperia 60hz
I also am unlucky to be in the region for the exyonos version here in the UK :crying:
Safe to say think ill be keeping the xperia not to mention on my tariff its half the price of the note

The key statement here is the fact that you have the exynos version. The Snapdragon 865+ version of the Note Ultra is a different beast

Samsung has a bigger marketing team, that is why everyone thinks that their screens are the best.
Exynos is the biggest joke if compared to the 865 Snapdragon.
120 Hz only works only lower resolution, not on the highest setting.

Sony has it beat in display, battery and speed snapdragon or not. Cameras are both excellent but the sony is so unique to anything else on the market.

You sure you can get 8 hours of SOT with 15% battery remaining on the Sony? Cause I sure as hell couldn't. View attachment 5098353

Snapdragon version of Note 20 ultra is averaging between 7 and 9 hours of SOT. Now to make it clear I'm not hating on Sony, i love Sony. I'm a fan of their products. I just constantly wish they didn't hamper their flagships, it's not even so much the lack of the high refresh panel, it's the dinky battery they always put into their phones. I could never get through a whole day with any Experia phones.

My only grip just wished the display got brighter don't suppose there is any tweaks to help? other then that I'm happy with the battery ect
I've been a Samsung and Sony fanboy for years mainly Samsung and there note lineup but think they have messed it up a bit this year best device I've had from Samsung was the note 9

It's a great phone, but for $1299 couldn't they have a higher refresh panel and 500mah bigger battery. 4,000mah on a 4k giant display is just not good enough. On Apple it would be apptimized to last. On Android, not so much. Hopefully Android 11 is better on the battery life.

I've got the same SOT on my xperia 1 II [emoji6]
Nowadays phones with equal battery size have nearly the same SOT.
Personally I've never cared about that, power socket are everywhere and If you need to leave for 48h or more you would have need to charge the phone anyway.

Are you performing any power saving saving options? Make sure the brightness is low, try to use wifi or do you use it to its max capabilities? Maybe I had a lemon, because I couldn't get past 5 1/2 to 6 hours max on my unit

It was just the time I happened to take it off the charger. If i took it off around 9 am then it would be hovering around 20 some odd percent with that screen on time by 9pm instead of 12 am. Still an Impressive SOT, no?
Sent from my SM-N986U using Tapatalk

With the announcement of the xperia 5ii are the rumours true that we will get the 120hz refresh rate and the faster touch input?
Also is black frame insertion a hardware thing or could that also be added

Also to point out the sony has a 4k resolution with a 10bit display panel and bt2020 colour and the note 20 ultra is only 8bit and 709 rec colour.
You can check using display mate app from playstore for both phones.

It has been stated that Note 20 panel isn't 120Hz all the time. and also there is still no QHD+120Hz option.
You have to choose either high refresh or high resolution. 90%+ of the time, Note 20 ultra is at 60Hz.

If you can tell 1440 vs 1080 on a 6.9 panel then great. I run it in 120hz and yes it's variable, so when I'm reading something it saves bettery. Duh

Tab S2 vs Nexus 9

Hi everyone,
As the title says I can't decide whether I want to buy the Nexus 9 or the Tab S2,
The battery on the Tab S2 seems to be bad, but the screen is AMAZING
Please help me decide
Hi, battery isn`t bad......mine is very very good.......i play a lot of games, last time, if i went home, playing 1,5h, if I´m at home, it´s at 85%............Nexus 9 have no SD Card Slot........Display is much better........
Hi, I traded my nexus 9 for the tab s2. Battery is better than nexus 9, screen is much nicer and not to forget the weight difference. I would say that the performance is pretty equal in real use. Benchmark is a different story.
Have had the nexus 9 since it was out and the tab s2 710 for a few days. My bias is to prefer the nexus 9 ...but so far turns out I prefer the s2. What's better in s2:
- screen far better
- performance: ui is noticeably more fluid, less screen redraws due to low memory
- build quality a bit higher
What's better in nexus 9:
- it's a nexus: easier to customise, easier & quicker access to updates, variety of roms and kernels
- battery a bit better
- on screen buttons plus expanded desktop worlds better for me than hardware buttons
- no touch wiz

+1 I entirely agree, I own both tablets.
And I have compared them side by side.
Battery are similar, depending of your main usage.
Tab s2 is very responsive and the ui flies when you deactivate the animations, no lags, no bothering reloads with background apps.
I always was an anti Samsung and a pro HTC, but the nexus is too slow (except if you play huge games where it excels) with its ui and lags..
The screen of the HTC is better FOR PHOTOGRAPHER because it's more real, but less pleasant for all other activities.
The on screen button of the HTC nexus are a big plus for me, the option of mirroring the screen and expandable storage are a big plus with the Samsung.
All in the balance I will return back....the nexus 9! [emoji6] [emoji121]

In the s2 everyone btc how great s2 is. I wonder wjat owners think now. I can buy both but I bet nexus 9 will have much longer developer support while for s2 there is a constant struggle of scarcity and no custom kernels which means that nexus 9 will beat it with cpu everywhere?

Note 8...

So... The Note 8 is out... Its a great Device! But 1000€ its exaggerated!!
How many Note 4 users will go to the 8? I think not so many...
I'm still happy with my 3 years old Device... (Already with Dr.Ketan's Rom)
Can we hope to a Note 8 porting or witch Rom can you recommend?
Or should i start to save money? [emoji39]
I just ordered a Mate 9 from Newegg today. I seen the price of the Note 8 and my thought was the same ($1200 + tax Canadian here). I'm on my 2nd Note 4 now and this one has the eMMC issue too. So from the reviews the Mate 9 seems like a close contender with the S8 (At this point I don't care about custom roms for it)

i will go N8 if same price with N4 lmao
is too expensive with 128gb or 64gb
or i must wait until my N4 die forever
I was going to buy one but I really think the Note 4 is still doing the business for me and can not see the benefit
Note 4 is doing great job for me for now. Even if my phone dies, wont give so much money for a phone.
i ended up preordering the n8 at 12:01 AM on the 24th. I love my note 4, and now even more so since I picked up the 10000 mha zerolemon extended battery. But I really want a new phone. I will hang on to the note 4 for a long time, it has a special place in my heart.
Was happy with my Note 4 (running Norma V20) untill my girlfrien got a Samsung S8+.
Then my note suddenly was crap
Bought the Oneplus 5, and daaaaaaamn this phone is fast and smooth! Kinda miss the S-Pen and bigger screen but daaaaaaamn the speed on the Onepluss overweights everything. Much faster than the S8+ to my girlfriend also.
i have the motherboard freezes and reboots and my camera front glas is damaged. i realy need a new phone
i paid for the N8 600$ with provider bonus, i think thats a nice price.
Well my note 4 is still better , infrared is an essential tool for me and note 8 dont have it... I guess I will wait until note 9[emoji14]
Way too overpriced, so I am gonna pass on that. My note 4 is still running like day one, minus the battery which can be replaced easily replaced.
I'm extremely disappointed with Note 8.
Curved edges (without any alternative) mean that the screen will be much more fragile, and will give you glares on the edges. It is both more fragile AND more expensive to replace than flat screens (we've seen that since S7 edge). If that's not enough, the back is now not durable, it's made of glass and you can break it too.
For me personally, one of the biggest NOs of Note 8 is its heavy weight: 200 grams is much more than already too heavy 167 grams of Note 4. About 3 years ago i have changed Galaxy S3 (100 grams) to Note 4 (176 grams) and the change was drastic... It hurts to talk half an hour or more on Note 4, and in general it's too heavy. I sense its weight all the time, every day, and every day wish it were lighter.
The battery is not removable, and it's real PITA. In my Note 4 a battery fully lasts only 1 year, then starts degrade like crazy (overheating during charge; phone turns off at 5, then 10, then 30% etc). I have got my 3rd battery already! With Note 4, maybe would be able to replace it via service center, but it will be more time consuming, more expensive, you will get your device disassembled so it will no longer be like new (lots of glued parts inside), and you will have to trust all your confidential or sensitive data to be given to the service center with your phone.
Why only QuickCHarge 2 is supported (like in Note 4), why not at least QuickCharge 3??
Where are real innovations? Like no bezels screen (Xiaomi Mi Mix 2, or Sharp Aquos Crystal 2), or stereo speakers (last years' ZTE Axon 7)???
This phone costs 500€ or less. 500€ is an absolute maximum one should pay for note 8 at the start of the sales (assuming all the abovementioned minuses), and then the price should drop. I would probably pay no more than 300€, as curved screen and non-removable battery just impose so much programmed obsolesce, that i refuse to invest more.
Realistically, i'm still on Note 4 with a refreshed battery, with an optimized rooted rom and efficient kernel (android 4.4.4), everything flies, and i do not upgrade as i have seen too many negative complaints about 5.x and 6.x ROMS. The device is fast and fits my needs (except being too heavy), however I really want a new, faster device with more modern OS, preferably Android O.
In the short term, if an Android O ROM will become available for N910F, i'll give it a go.
In the long term, i guess i will be migrating to a reasonably price edgeless device (must be QHD Amoled, preferable 6.2-6.3), very likely Xiaomi Mi Mix 2.
Samsung just leaves no other options, it does ignore its customers' needs.
I'm begrudgingly moving to the Note 8 because I have no other penabled smartphone options on the market; this is a niche Samsung has all to itself until someone dares to compete.
Normally, I'd keep the Note 4 still, but I'm in a bit of an unusual predicament: an unofficially SIM-unlocked Sprint N910P variant on T-Mobile since the end of January, largely because we all know what happened to the Note 7 and I didn't want to chance buying another Note 4 with all this talk of eMMC failures. Lately, I can't even get 3G on T-Mo for some reason despite it having worked before (4G never worked because Sprint locked out the bands on their variant), and my call quality's turned to crap.
In short, my hand was forced due to a carrier switch resulting in subpar network performance on my current phone, and had my family heeded my advice two years ago, we would've switched that much sooner.
At least Samsung will take $200 off for trading in an old S5 in working order, and we've got a pair of Sprint S5s not doing much anyway since the switch. That makes the cost of the Note 8 a bit easier to stomach, alongside the pre-order promo... but only a bit. (Ironically, they wouldn't take Note 4s for trade-in, but there's no way in hell I'm giving up mine like that anyway. I like having an IR blaster for those things I didn't get remotes with!)
As a bonus, I won't have to deal with any carrier branding BS this time. If there's an unlocked variant that costs as much as all the major carrier-locked variants anyway, sometimes even a bit less, why the heck would anyone NOT get the SIM-unlocked version? (Bootloader unlocking is probably a pipe dream for North American models now, though. Thanks a lot, Samsung... if not for import models being even more expensive for a litany of reasons, I would've gone that route.)

I'm still on the original Note 4 and also have a brand new spare one that I have never had to use. That may be going on eBay!
Think I'm gonna wait until my upgrade is due in December to see how this pans out. Not too sure about the lack of capacitive buttons but the dual 12mp camera is a biggie for me. Hopefully a working root will be in place to disable Bixby and all the other Samsung crap.
Found out today I have a permanent 25% discount with Vodafone UK so £45 a month is acceptable.

No. Note 8 has the same hardware as the Oneplus 5, but has bloatware OS instead of "stock" android.
So it will be slower.

samsung s20 plus or xperia 1 ii

I am a massive photographer and wondering if the xperia 1 ii has a better camera than the samsung
I note ram is smaller amount and no 120mhz refresh
Thoughts please

I see that you're in the UK. I'm returning my s20+ because it was an overheating discharging mess. Camera was horrible - oversharpened and neon like saturation. Of course it'd be different if I had the Snapdragon variant. I've pre-ordered the Sony

Yeah don't worry about the 12gb Vs 8gb. Using a LG g8s right now and the Snapdragon 855 handles Android like a boss (with 6gb ram). I'm sure the Sony will blow the exynos S20+ out of the water. Was so happy to get rid of that phone. I think more people need to be aware of what Samsung are up to and buy better phones than the junk Samsung are selling in Europe.
I also have the opportunity to choose from s20ultra or xperia 1 ii which showed up yesterday at my carrier store...
In my region we have the exynos... the xperia has sn 865 which is faster, but....im worried about the battery life 4000 vs 5000mah.

Wouldn't worry about that tbh - sent my Exynos S20+ back for the overheating/poor battery comments already made and went with a OP8 Pro with 8gb ram - no detrimental effect in my usage but the change to the SD has yielded far, far better battery life (about 2-3 hours more SOT on average) and far less hand warming!!

10bit or 8bit display

hi guys I'm thinking of upgrading from my note 10 plus just a question is the display 10bit like some are saying as ive been on the sony website and its saying the same as it did for the xperia 1from last year 10bit 8bit with 2bit software or something
Just asking as the oneplus 8pro is supposedly 10bit in total
Thanks
I don't know, but 4k HDR looks absolutely amazing!
It will be 10bit as it supports bt2020 and over billion colours.

It is 8+2 bit just like oneplus.
It's really an 8bit display,
I also switched from Note 10 plus to this phone and love it so far! Screen is so crisp and colors are dead accurate in pro mode
Sony adverts it as a 10bit Display (8+2). And yes, the screen is the best part of this device.
Same as last year. It's 8bit with smoothing. It's not like 10bit. It's more like an in between.
So does the phone actually support 1 billion colors or is it like a 16m display?
Really tempted to trade in my note 10 plus for it bit I've also heard that the cameras arnt all that good either ?
Also another question does the display get bright when viewing hdr as ive heard that sony turned down the brightness of the display from the xperia 1 which I thought it wasn't bright enough then
Thanks

Keep the note 10+.
The Xperia is still lacking in alot of areas, battery, display brightness, fixed front camera, little things like that don't add up to $1200.
When it drops to around $800-US then it'll be closer to it's worth.
It's just not worth it, no matter how beautiful it is when the experience is worse.

I come from Note 10 plus and not looking back. Vanilla Android UI is much nicer than One UI. i also missed flat screen. Camera is for sure better on 1 ii if you think when you take photos. I did side by side comparison of front camera and it's comparable to Note 10. At the end of the day, 1 ii is not for Instagram kind of folks other than this, superb phone

Have had no problem with the display outdoor at all. It doesn't match super bright note when sunlight hits it but def as bright as OnePlus 8 and way brighter than Pixel. So whoever says its "dim" doesn't have enough data points to compare. Speakers are more clear and sound louder to me since front firing. Overall, so happy that I have a flagship with flat screen. Had Pixel in the past but they always had hardware issues and crappy display.
Thanks just another question the 10 bit display does it work all the time in both standard and creator mode or is it just in creator mode?
Thanks
Hi guys does the creator mode need to be selected for the 10 bit color or is it walkways active?
Only asking as I normally have it on standered but will change it if so
Thanks

If you're not sure, the answer is no - only upgrade for clear improvements/performance gains - otherwise why would you upgrade?

I have oneplus 7 pro 1 and a half year and I want some change.
That's why I'm thinking of S20 fe.

there are dozens of videos on YouTube of the OnePlus 8T (newer than yours) up against S20FE and Pixel 4a etc. go watch a bus load of videos and you'll have a better idea. aside from that FE will have a newer processor, a memory card slot or dual SIM, but only you should decide if it's worth it.
remember there are a few versions of the FE and they are not all the same.

Nope. It's not worth it. It also charges too slowly compared to oneplus. Wait for s21 fe or oneplus 9

I agree - and I just upgraded to the S20 FE 5G. But I was coming from a Galaxy S9+, which is a year older than your 7 Pro. Even then, the S20 FE doesn't blow me away in comparison - I actually think the screen is nicer (and brighter in normal use) on the S9+, and I'm still getting used to the punch hole camera, and lack of a notification light. I bought it mainly for the increase in storage (as I use the SD Card slot for a second SIM, so can't add memory) and the 120 MHz display, faster processor etc. Even then, I don't really find it noticeably faster in normal use - as I mentioned in another post, it never ceases to amaze me just how much marketing departments and the media exaggerate each year's (real world) improvements. All of which is to say that phones have gotten so good - and have been for a few years now - that it makes no sense to upgrade until you either have to or there is a clear advantage to doing so.
Edit: Having done some more side-by-side comparison, the S20 FE 5G is noticeably faster of course, and the screen is fine. Plus, the battery life has been stellar. All-in-all, it's a great phone for the price - especially the 8GB/256GB 5G version.

You generally don't want your phones to charge really fast, it's extremely detrimental to battery's lifespan. 15W-25W is already overdoing it and should be the maximum for most people.
I rarely get this phone below 50% and then it's up to 75 again pretty quick. if you want your phone to charge faster turn off Wi-Fi, go into airplane mode or even better switch it off for 30 mins.

Or, better yet, just don't constantly watch it charge...
