Review: A worthy upgrade for my XZ Premium - The Xperia XZ Premium was the best phone I've ever had, and I've had it for over 2 years. It still holds up to current flagships despite that. It had a 4k screen, which current flagships still don't have. And after 2 years, the battery is still at 97% original capacity even after very heavy use and quick-charging. That said, Sony has the best battery management software I've seen. Their batteries hold up better than Samsung over time, which is the #1 reason I switched brands. This phone is great. 4k HDR OLED screen looks brilliant. The best screen out there. The 21:9 aspect ratio is awesome, and the phone just feels sexy. The only complaint I had with the XZ Premium was the loudness of the speakers. I'm happy to say these speakers get very loud and sound great except at max volume, where they struggle with clarity. The fingerprint scanner is solid, but I wished they integrated the power button in the reader like the XZ Premium. I haven't played with the cameras too much yet. But from the quick launch and basic settings, it works great. I can't wait to try out the video recording. Sony did a good job with the software here, to. I hear people complain about side-sense on Youtube videos, but I honestly haven't had any issues. I made it a point to use it and now it's awesome. It just takes getting used to. The battery is big enough to last all day for 99% of people. I'm a heavy user and it gets me through the day. It's not as big as some competitors, which is something Sony could improve on. Also, no wireless charging. I have to dock the battery life a star because of its small size. But considering the actual lifespan of the batteries in Sony phones of the past, I give it an extra star.
Review: Great phone (for me) - All the manufacturer's make great phones, so picking a top tier phone is purely a subjective affair at this point. I'm not a fan of curved screens, in screen or back of the phone fingerprint readers, I don't use wireless charging. My last phone was a Sony Xperia XZs which I had for over 2 years, it is the same width and depth as the Xperia 1, the Xperia 1 is decidedly taller. I have also owned Samsung Galaxy S7 and LG G6 phones, I prefer Sony's design language (purely subjective). Screen: Majestic, incredible. The 21:9 aspect ratio is a huge upgrade, you fit so much more onto the screen, very good for productivity. Fingerprint reader: Solid, my favorite style which is on the side of the phone. Occasionally I need to do 2 attempts, I think the XZs was slightly more reliable. Camera: Initial reports are good. I really liked my camera on my XZs although it suffered in lowlight, but it shot great video. From what I have seen in 2 days the Xperia 1 has better detail and the 3 shooting modes are a welcome addition. Battery: Would have been nice if it was bigger, but phone has lasted without a hitch for full day usage thus far with around 50% left at night. Size: I was never a fan of huge phones, and while this phone is tall it is narrow enough to be a joy to use and hold. Speakers: My XZs had a terrible speakerphone function, the Xperia 1 has great speakers, nice clarity, and they're loud. Overall: Fantastic phone. I wish the back wasn't glass so I could use it without a case, that's my biggest knock. I'll update as I use the phone more.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Great alternative to an iPhone X, especially with these headphones!
*by M***F on July 15, 2020*

This is the first Android phone I've had in 10 years. I switched from an iPhone X out of curiosity and a desire to move on from the Apple-hole. I've been really impressed with this phone. The screen size is great. It's thin enough to use one-handed and the added length provides usable additional space. The screen quality is noticably better than the X. It seems to be crisper and more vibrant. The speakers are really loud! It makes it easy to watch YouTube and Netflix in bed. No need to bust out the tablet. I'm still getting use to the camera. The interface is different than the iPhone, so I'm still learning how to take advantage of it all. So far, I'm really impressed with the quality of my photos. They seem to require less editing than what I did with my iPhone. I really like the three lense options, especially the wide angle. The only negative is the battery life. I typically need to charge it mid-day or early evening. I wish it would last the entire day without having to worry about it. Lastly, the headphones are what really make this an awesome deal! They are some of the best noise-canceling headphones I've ever used. They have great sound, quiet the ambiant noise, and the batteries last forever!
