The V seems like a decent improvement over the IV, especially with the addition of an actual night mode, but still can't compete with the other OEMs unfortunately. The fact that in nearly every single shot he had to, by his own words, "spend quite a bit of time" taking each shot in manual mode and adjusting all the settings to even get the end result comparable to the Samsung and Apple means it's just not good enough.

There's also the fact that Samsung also has a full manual mode that's potentially even more in depth than the Sony's, but he didn't touch on that. The Samsung and Apple also both shoot in RAW, which again was ignored here, and the iPhone Pro RAW files are hugely praised especially.

I love the idea of the Sony continuous zoom, but it needs another few years and hardware upgrades before it's ready. It's just bad. The max zoom image from the iPhone's 3x zoom was better than the Sony's 5.2x.

If your talking about expert raw that's some entirely different and has more in common with vivo's super raw. Which is a computational raw.

Yeah Sony should have used a pixel binning sensor and not the 12mp one they have. Or that lg module 4x to 10x.
