    No I mean the one where you can set sharpening to -100 and use the refined profile for natural results. Don't use portrait mode. Goodbye oversharpening. Like seriously, you obviously have no clue what you're talking about.

    " Xperia is not oversharpened and has never been for me in my experience."

    So you're blind to all the halos and sharpening artifacts?

    This is fine right :

    And this is all I have to see to know what kind of quality difference we have and how far behind Sony is:

      Pro camera with smartphone attached! Noice! 👌

        Only if the MicroSD card was that CHEAP!

        A 2TB Sandisk Extreme Pro and Non-Pro Micro-SD card cost $445.

        A 6TB WD External HDD cost only $183.19.

        Would have been better if the model has 16GB RAM 2TB Storage.

          you mean the one where it's so oversharpened and AI-ified that it removes moles and makes people's skin look artificial?

          "Others like Oppo or Xiaomi don't have that option in auto mode but they still utilize less sharpening than other "major" OEMs."
          xiaomi and oppo are actually known for oversharpening just as much as these other oems


          "You mean to tell me photographers love oversharpening without the possibility to fix it? Or being locked to native focal length because any digital zoom looks like complete garbage? Stop glazing brands dude, it's not a good look."

          i'm a professional photographer, Xperia is not oversharpened and has never been for me in my experience. i don't believe you've ever used a Xperia. and all of your complaining and Sony hating makes sense now, because you're a Vivo fan!

                  And we don't like that. That's why Vivo is the best camera phone where you can actually turn down the sharpening even in auto mode. Others like Oppo or Xiaomi don't have that option in auto mode but they still utilize less sharpening than other "major" OEMs.

                    Not bad, Sony, quality is important and a professional is not a gamer, but a smart and stylish one, and the photo and camera are great, real, original, without fake, not like fake Apple, but the original, don't forget, the original sneakers, like the original Sony, thank you, but the price, I understand, depends on Japan, the exchange rate, and the course is suitable)))

                      you don't need to, but the profile I mentioned has some nice test shots from locations besides the standard GSMArena test locations

                          Only the 10 series might get made after this priced like apple base model for a midranger .
                          🤣🤣🤣

                            I hope that they update their 5 series with the chipset from this phone and also making it small.

                              I'm extremely happy to see a microSD card slot and a 3.5 audio jack on a good modern phone

                                Very outdated specsno t worth even 700$
                                Sony is trashing it's name by overpricing possibly a good phone.

                                        Very rarely a real human does those.
                                        And also over 50% of internet traffic is already AI and Bots.
                                        Bots made by the World Elite to annoy and waste real people's time that's the only purpose of bots.
                                        Just ignore it yeah do that.
                                        It's also a shame we can't REPORT trolls here.
                                        It would be useful, hey Admins update the site so we can report trolls, thanks.
