I mean, I haven't looked at a smartphone from Sony in a very long time.

I couldn't even remember when will ask me.

And it's kind of unfortunate because they've been in the game for a long time, not just a smartphone game, but the technology game.

The gaming games, PlayStation TV, everybody wanted once upon a time was the Trinitron.

I had the mini disc player.

The Walkman changed the game for me and others.

It's like I love to see Sony's still doing it, and especially when you've got a product like this one, which has been requested a lot by you guys.

I'm excited for it, because is a different take.

Unlike the other manufacturers that are just going, you know, all in on this idea of screen to body ratio.

They're like, Let's go with a different aspect ratio.

Let's try to put as many pixels as possible into a six and 1/2 inch screen that anyone's ever done before.

Let's just have a different approach.

So that's why I'm excited for this.

And oh, I'm also excited because they're doing a promo.

These are my favorite headphones in the world right now.

The W H 1000 x m three.

They're doing a deal where you get these for free when you order this.

That's an important thing to know about because this is not a cheap smartphone.

This is gonna retail for 950 U.

S.

D.

So it puts it in that premium price here.

But if you want to lower the sting of that M S.

R p, those at $350 noise cancelling headphones, in my opinion, they're worth it.

I've used him for a while, and I love them.

So if you were in the market for both of these things, you could imagine your price point on the smartphone having a significant subtraction from a value perspective.

Instead of having to spend 9 50 another 3 50 you could look at the effect of price of a phone going all the way down to 600 bucks.

I'll link Amazon down in the description if you want to check it out, but it should work at a number of different retailers on the pre order currently Okay, suspects on the back 12 plus 12 plus 12 megapixel triple camera set up you gotta have in this day and age 2090 especially 1 900 bucks for a smartphone.

Eight megapixel selfie camera four K h d.

R o.

Led display.

6.5 inches.

That's got to be the highest pixel density I've ever looked at in a smartphone, I would say 33 30 Milan Powers Course.

We've seen devices 4000 plus.

So I'm not too excited about that.

After I get a 55 i p.

65 slash 68.

Okay, this could be the next smartphone that I switched to.

This could be my next experiment might.

Very well, Which one did I get?

So I got the purple one.

It's the Toronto Raptors purple when you flip it over to the front, 21 by nine cinema wide.

So this brings us to the next hot topic may be the hottest topic with this particular smartphone.

You do not see 21 by nine smartphones.

That said, if you look at a service like Netflix, for example, they claim a significant portion of their content is in that aspect ratio.

For the time being, it's mostly cinema content in which you'll be ableto watch the way it was originally intended.

Now, why would you want to go with this aspect ratio?

Well, what allows you to do is have a 6.5 inch display, but in a form factor that you can hold super easy.

As you can see, it's not a reach for me.

It's just a confident grip.

It's a really interesting aspect ratio.

Could it be the future?

Quite possibly.

But for now, it's one of the rare devices available as far as a smartphone is concerned.

We've seen it in monitors and things like that in the past.

But they also claim to some Dolby at most going on in here.

I'll test the sound.

That's what I do.

USB type C connector on the bottom, capable of fast charge.

That's a must You have the speaker unit also in that location right there over on this side of the device.

Gets a bit fancy, actually.

Is a few buttons here.

This is the interesting one.

It is a side mounted fingerprint scanner, so nothing in display.

It's gonna be your more typical touch based scanner.

You would be used to seeing this on the rear of the device on other smartphones.

A few of them have tried it on the side.

So when he's doing the same, we'll see how that operates.

See how that works in a moment.

Volume rocker above that power switch below.

They're kind of weird that they're not both integrated in tow one, but I'm sure there's a good reason for it.

And then another switch down here on the bottom.

What is that?

Is that a dedicated camera switch?

That would be a nice location for it.

I'm not sure we're gonna have to wait a moment to find out on that one as well.

Look at that.

You remove the SIM card's slash micro SD expansion.

Trey without a tool.

What a bonus that is.

All right, before boot up the device.

Let's take a look at the rest of the contents of the package.

We have a little bit of paperwork ahead set with interchangeable ear tips.

A microphone Here is your power Brick.

What is this baby capable of 18 watts of quick charge power that should be sufficient for most individual.

Okay, little vibration.

It's so slim.

It's so comfy.

It's the ergonomics of a small size fall with the screen of a big size bone.

This feels like a pixel three.

That just keeps going.

The screen looks incredible.

It's way more pixels in my eyes could ever possibly discern.

Well, can we get the pixel density on this?

643 peopIe I according to Will do.

Alright, here we go.

We're gonna test the fingerprints on the side.

It's kind of a weird.

It's a different location.

So how's it going to do?

How's it gonna fare?

So fingerprint unlocked on the side is definitely not the fastest.

It feels a bit faster when you first press the power switch.

If you don't press the power switch, it takes a second.

I don't mind having it on the side.

I just wish was a bit snappy.

Or maybe I can turn off the enemy's go into the settings.

I mean, it's so it's very stock ish.

They didn't get out of hand.

He didn't get wild.

They're like, all right, Android.

It's pretty good.

We don't want to be too much.

It's almost pixel.

Ask.

They just didn't They just didn't mess with it that much.

I mean, I see a couple things that seem extra cinema pro.

Wow.

It is an advanced 21 by nine video capture, which is one of most ridiculous things I've ever seen on a smartphone.

I mean, it's got a real pro vibe to it.

Audio levels you have H d R.

Options.

Kodak, you're shooting in H 265 battery level.

The focal length.

I S O shutter speed White balance Daylight selection.

Manual focus.

I mean, it's not unwanted.

It's cool.

It's exclusive.

It's in line with their DNA.

I can live with that.

You can launch the camera quickly.

Swiftly lift your device in landscape mode.

Aim the camera and it will be launched automatically.

Okay, that's cool.

Side sense.

You can take a photo or video by simply double tapping the sensor on the side of the screen.

I guess they mean a fingerprint sensor.

Okay, cool.

Got it.

Oh, this is a shutter.

But that's way cooler.

This holding it like this.

They thought about the ergonomics.

You hold it as a human would hold a camera and has the half shutter press for focus.

Half down.

Get the green boom, pop the shutter.

So simple.

It's a bit ridiculous, like you could just tap the screen.

Luke, relax.

Or you could use some other button.

A lot of lot of phones use the volume down, but I don't want a double function button.

You know, you see everybody.

Ah, like this.

The cause, Nana.

Humans boom.

So here we go wide zoom standard.

Zoom wide.

It means pretty much what you want.

Let's watch a little video 16 by nine content.

You're going to get black bars.

It's YouTube so you can zoom in.

Actually, not so bad.

The crop works completely fine.

And let's get a sense for the audio performance here real quick.

Now there's another weird icon over their dynamic vibration.

It's like a boost of some kind.

But now, if I click on the Dolby, Atmos is a few modes in there by default dynamic attempt to identify the type of content and make the adjustment.

But you also have movie music custom.

I'll leave it on dynamic.

I think that's how most people will use it.

Well, that is so weird.

It was like a harmonies.

I think that might be better for music.

To be honest, it's a It's an odd experience.

It's harmonize.

So it's like slightly the enhancement is slightly off.

You can.

You can pick it up now.

As far as the speaker is concerned, it's your typical implementations.

Most of the sound comes out of the bottom unit, the main speaker grill, in a little bit of high end out of the ear piece generation flexible, which requires a very specific Samsung, goes and create that make their way capable of other brands.

Smartphones?

Probably none more so than apples, smartphones.

Apple sing 100 million older iPhone screens each year.

I would say volume is kind of comparable between two.

This is the one plus seven pro, by the way, but I feel like there's a little bit more low and presents on the one plus when it comes to dialogue, let's do a quick music test you want to see.

That compares to a real quick look at this.

So that's the one plus and look at how much skin here.

I mean, maybe it doesn't seem substantial to you looking at that, but this, like this, is the extra.

This is the tough part to reach with your hand when you're trying to reach the far into the screen.

Is it?

A one plus has the most base.

The iPhone is the most clarity.

This one is the most high.

I will put these two closer together.

This one is a little.

This one's below that.

I don't find it to be particularly offensive.

The thing is, it does change quite a bit when you go in there and tweak the dhobi settings.

I mean, this is what Dolby off now.

But out of the box, I'd say it's not quite as pleasing is these two other models.

Let's see if we could find a forte 21 by nine video.

Whoa!

I don't know if it's gonna come through on camera.

I feel like I have to bring it closer to you, Jack.

For you to really get the right amount of detail, this is gonna be one of the best video watching experiences on a phone for a lot of people that Iran ago, you end up consuming a lot of content on your smartphone natively.

It's just hard to imagine a better occurrence in this.

So there it is.

Xperia, one from Sony.

Finally, a Sony device in the studio and let alone like the most requested good on Sony for creating device that's captured the attention of you guys.

There's some things that for me or promising right out of the box, I mean, the display is obviously beautiful.

Hold it all those pixels.

Unusual aspect ratio.

I like the dedicated switch for the cameras, which I'm going to try out more.

I'm a little skeptical of the battery life, though I will look into that also, I like the purple color.

Somehow I didn't expect that.

I'm gonna pop my SIM card in here very shortly.

Get to the bottom of it, but good on Sony for sticking around and at least capturing your guy's attention.

Up until now, we'll see how it pans out.
