SONY Xperia 1 series mobile phones have always been a lone ranger in the Android camp. It has many insistences: button fingerprint identification, 4K screen, SIM card slot that can be removed by hand, expandable memory card and 3.5mm headphone jack and other elements , are hard to find on other brand flagships, making it a loyal fan for a long time. The Samsung Galaxy S23 Ultra is generally considered to be the big brother of the Android camp. Whether it is the screen, camera or performance, it is the benchmark for Android phones in the year. Today we will compare these two phones with similar specifications but different positioning. Which one do you prefer?
First of all, in terms of appearance, although the two models both adopt a square design, the screen ratio is different. SONY has continued for many years with a 21:9 ratio, which makes it easy to hold with one hand, while the 23 U is almost impossible to use with one hand. At the same time, SONY Xperia 1 V is also one of the few mobile phones among the Android flagships that does not exceed 200 grams, while the 23 U is much larger and heavier.
In terms of processors, although both of them use the same Snapdragon 8 Gen 2 platform, the specifications of the two are still slightly different. Samsung uses its exclusive customized version with a clock speed of 3.36 Ghz, which is higher than the 3.2 Ghz version used by SONY. The GHz standard version is higher, but the gap is not very obvious through the actual game test.
In terms of cameras, Samsung has one more periscope telephoto lens than SONY; on the photosensitive element, SONY uses its own new generation of Exmor T photosensitive element, while Samsung’s main lens is its own 200 million pixel photosensitive element element. In terms of actual shooting, Sony took the route of “restoring the real view” as in the past. The night scene is also very strong, but it does not seek to suppress strong light; while Samsung’s camera takes a pleasing color route. Whether it is a night scene or a self-portrait, it can make ordinary people feel more comfortable. Use automatic mode to take rewarding photos. In terms of camera comparison, I think what should be considered is which concept of camera tuning you like, which is greater than the specifications of the hardware.
The software part is SONY’s weakness. It is close to the original interface. It looks simple to those who like it, but simple to those who are used to using other UIs. On the other hand, Samsung’s One UI is like a treasure chest. It has all kinds of functions, but it has a certain learning cost, and you need to learn by yourself. But after learning, you can make many customized changes, which is very convenient and easy to use.
These two phones are in the top class of this year’s flagship phones in terms of screen, performance, camera and battery life. However, Samsung Galaxy S23 Ultra is more suitable for most people, while SONY is suitable for those who value the sound quality of headphones, need SD card expansion and like SONY’s design concept.
