To the new, something old


At the level of specifications, the Sony Xperia 1 VII is what could be expected in the last flagship of the Japanese company. Qualcomm Snapdragon 8 Elite (refrigerated with steam chamber), 5,000mAh battery, triple camera with teleobjective (especially long, up to 170mm), and a 6.5 -inch OLED screen with up to 120 Hz of refreshment rate.
But the surprising thing is not its speech aligned with the rest of the high range, it is that Sony continues to maintain technologies such as the 3.5mm headphone jackand betting on improving aspects that many of their rivals forget, such as sound.
In this generation, Sony has implemented knowledge of its division Walkmanwith the aim of providing One of the best sound experiences on a smartphone. The audio circuitry has been redesigned in collaboration with the Walkman team to minimize the loss of quality when transmitting the audio. Specifically, a 10% improvement is promised both in low and in media.
They also keep the headphones jackbeing the only ones in traditional company (outside the gaming mobiles) to continue maintaining this audio entry. One that we lost a long time ago both in high range and in the rest of the phones, and for which Sony continues to bet.
As a novelty, Sony will support your new high range for six years. Four of them aimed at operating system updates and six for security patches. They are not the Six Totals of Google and Samsungbut it is an important step forward regarding some of its direct competitors.

Xperia Intelligence

One of the most striking is the auto framing function. The Xperia 1 VII is the first phone that can convert horizontal videos into vertical videos maintaining the position of the subject. He does it by turning a 4K filming into a full HD exit, and analyzing the subject’s position to keep it in the video that has been cut.
It is a function similar to that of the pro version of Capcut for PCwhich optimizes horizontal videos to formats such as Tiktok’s. In this way, we can record horizontal with our Sony to later watch full screen videos on TV or computer, while we have a perfectly adapted version for social networks.
This phone is also able to keep the subject in the center while we make moving videos. It does it through a slight CROP (an image cut), with the consequent loss of quality. Despite this, a quite interesting option if we record someone who is running, pets, children, etc.
Sony has also improved the focus to the eye through AI and, in this generation, the phone can also analyze the subject’s own movement, predict its position and adjust the self -effect. Inherited technologies of Alpha cameras for a phone in
