## Description

XPERIA 1 IV Speed is everything With Xperia’s signature speed at its core, the Xperia 1 IV has a triple lens camera that can record 4K HDR 120fps on all lenses. It can capture photos at 20fps burst with AE/AF in HDR and boasts a new true optical zoom 85-125mm. And it lets you share your experiences on the go with video and game live streaming. The Xperia 1 IV delivers the best of Sony to every user and creator. There are standout features for videographers and photographers, and major wins for mobile gamers, whether they’re eSports players or streamers. Audiophiles benefit from decades of Sony sound and music expertise, along with new Music Pro for studio-style song recording. And cinephiles will appreciate the brightest smartphone 4K HDR 120Hz display ever. Three lenses for video content creation The Xperia 1 IV gives videographers a wealth of creative opportunities with a choice of three lenses including ultra-wide 16mm, wide-angle 24mm, and telephoto with true optical zoom 85-125mm. All three offer 4K HDR 120fps video recording, Eye AF and Object tracking. Professional technology from Alpha cameras The Xperia 1 IV was co-developed with the engineers behind the latest Alpha 1 series cameras, renowned for their industry-leading autofocus technology, and with input from professional photographers, who helped tune the technology and refine the photographic experience and results. And just as Alpha photographers expect the same performance in any lens, so the Xperia 1 IV offers the same AF capabilities across all its lenses.

Review: Me gusto muchísimo el celular, al principio antes de actualizarse si se calentaba un poco, pero después de actualizarse se controló muy bien el sobrecalentamiento. El teléfono en mi opinión es un teléfono de nicho hecho para fotógrafos, no veras fotos sobreprocesadas como en un iphone, yo lo compre pues soy usuario de las cámaras mirrorless de Sony, en conjunto con ellas puedes hacer cosas que otros celulares no, pero por si mismo destaca por sus cámaras y sus modos pro de foto y video que te va a permitir tomar fotos en RAW. Hay que destacar que las ópticas son de diafragma fijo, yendo desde f1.7 hasta f2.8 en cada una de las focales. 1.7 para 24mm. 2.2 para 16mm 2.1 85mm y 2.8 para 135mm y el zoom creo que puede mejorar, ojala lo hagan vía software. Para terminar, me hizo muy feliz, a pesar de las malas reseñas que uno puede encontrar es el celular que mas me ha gustado. Me gustaría que hicieran cases mas finos, con resistencia al agua y parachoques grado militar, pero no hay para este modelo de celular.
Review: I live in usa and bought this to use on ATT, network wise it works exactly like my US model xperia 1 ii did volte provisioned and ims registered, unfortunately theres no actual 5G despite claims on Reddit or XDA that it does. It will say 5G but not connected to any NR bands, doesnt bother me though i still get 100mbps+ on LTE where i live ***2 month update* Device is still working great. It from my understanding it will get actual 5g on tmobile, this is verision to get unless you have verizon in US, the CT62 US model bootloader is not unlocked. It is also not shown anywhere but this model is the CT72 with CUSTOMIZED TAIWAN firmware. You will not be able to get BRAVIA CORE on this model from playstore. Remember to disable DSDS mode if youre not running dual sim, battery life is improved with this disabled. The phone is much improved over my xperia 1 ii, the sceeen is very bright, haptic feedback are the best than any other phone i have used, fingerprint sensor is accurate, the cameras are FAST, the phones criticisms of over heating are blown out of proportion IMO. Ive Only seen the hot warning sign when i first got it and it was downloading updates/applying at the same i was taking quite a few continuous photos. This seller is slow to ship, prepare to wait a while to get your item to actually ship out, they will mark it shipped but mine didnt get in fedex hands untill the 8th day. They also ship it in a bubble wrapped fedex bag, could of easily been crushed, pretty disappointing to ship out a 1k phone in a bag. Luckily mine was intact and undamaged.
