With its Xperia 1 II, Sony is clearly targeting smartphone photo enthusiasts. Pre-installed pro apps get the most out of the camera and deliver impressive results. Apart from the camera, the phone can also convince with an excellent display, high-quality workmanship and strong performance.

- The overall equipment of the Sony Xperia 1 II is excellent. Not only the camera module, but also the other components deliver top performance.
- Unfortunately, the price of the new smartphone is relatively high. However, you get a fair value for it.
In many respects, you can tell that the Sony Xperia 1 II was designed with demanding photographers and filmmakers in mind. The excellent integration of hardware and software deserves special mention.

Sony's latest foray into the reference class is undoubtedly good, but it cannot convince across the board, and that is mainly due to some details. On the positive side, however, the component is absolutely convincing in most situations in the important specs of performance, display and camera...

- Case with water/dust protection & Gorilla Glass
- 6.1" OLED display in cinema format with 120 Hz
- Triple cam with tele & wide angle and OIS & EIS
- Stereo speaker with bomb sound!
- Fast-charging battery with good runtime
- fast CPU, 128 + 6 GB, BT5, USB 3.1, 5G
