- Excellent photo and video quality, good bright screen. Three Sony branded photo, video and 21:9 apps with different color presets, lots of settings make this phone the best phone on the market for those who are into photography and videography. Samsung and other Xiaomi, with their forced plastic photo processing and oversharp, were not even close in quality. Good cameras, especially 24mm, smooth optical zoom. There is RAW. The screen form factor is good for shooting at 21:9 and watching modern movies - there are no bands around the edges of the screen, due to which the image is larger than on a phone with a regular form factor. Good audio chip, there is a headphone jack.
- The 21:9 screen form factor is inconvenient if you need to read a lot, browse the Internet, chat in instant messengers. The screen is significantly narrower than most other phones. And the length of the screen does not matter, because. when reading or browsing sites, it is still not possible to cover the entire look. Also, the letters on the on-screen keyboard are smaller, typing is not very convenient. I used to have a Sony XZ2 Premium - for these tasks the screen was much more convenient, although the quality of the picture itself was worse. It is also not very convenient to edit photos, because. due to the narrow screen, the size of the photo is smaller than on a regular phone 16:9 and the details are not always clear. And viewing the photo is less convenient - if the phone is rotated, the photo size is still smaller than on a standard phone.
