We like the Sony Xperia 1 II.
In a departure from previous phones, Sony decided to implement some continuity with their latest phone and their popular camera lines. No, that doesn’t mean there is a monster camera sensor on the new Sony Xperia 1 II, but there are some serious controls for the three 12MP sensors that are installed. Set to 16mm, 24mm, and 70mm, the three sensors basically have a clean sweep from your ultra-wide shots up to your telephoto images.
You’ll find a headphone jack on this phone, which makes us very happy, and there is a dedicated dual-action camera button as well. Looking at this phone will be a little different, as they continue to offer a 21:9 aspect ratio. Being 6.5-inches and shaped excellently to watch those 21:9 movies is fun, but even better is the 4K resolution, making the Xperia 1 II one of the best phones around to watch movies on.
Plenty of other specs are top-tier or better on the Xperia 1 II. You’ll enjoy great performance, lots of storage space, water and dust resistance, solid battery life, and wireless charging. Check it out:
