Where the settings to toggle 120hz?
Playing games that support 120hz with game enhancer still doesn't feel any smoother than scrolling through the settings etc

It's of the screen refresh rate not the app, go look at the xz prem forums for the 120hz mod for example
Same thing happens year after year and someone says it can do 120hz. Sony won't support this and have said this. Unless someone can prove its 120hz. Especially on 4k screen and small battery.....

he had made a tournament with the Xperia 1 before its release to show the advantage of 21: 9 and 120hz for compatible games. I think it is the application settings for example with aida64 I have a resolution of 4k for the screen because the application is in 4k I think for the refraichissement of the screen is the same if the application does not offer 120hz native you will not have it

And I think the 120hz is available in axe and Darkness rises because with the maximum screen frequency my battery really does not last long max 2 -2.30 h vs 6-7h usually in games

If you think 120hz based on battery performance then it's not 120hz. You would clearly see the device being smoother.
Sony hasn't said it supports 120hz. You would think 4k at 120hz is better for advertising the phone than just 4k.... I welcome someone to prove this wrong.
As soon as one person says it 120hz others jump on and start spreading it.

120 Hz is not available in 4k it is Normal that it does not communicate on it, only in 2k and Sony is one of the companies that communicates the least about the features, it's a rpg the difference is not obvious but since the game supports a refresh of 120 Hz it can not be that the other rpg I play does not consume as much and they are all 60fps. when the characteristics is zackbugs who had published an image is still him who shows the photos of smartphones 6 months before their release not the kind of people told anything

Game supports 120hz but Xperia 1 doesn't. As I said earlier one person says it the rest follow.
RPG or not RPG you would be able to tell the difference between 120hz and 60hz.
Sony would advertise 120hz just as much as they would as 4k as it would be a key selling point. They've also said they went with battery life over 120hz

it is not me who said it was on the site Asian Sony does not ask me which one. it would surprise me strongly that only the Asian versions take into account that, it will not release the top because it would need compatibility only with the game 2k / 120 Hz and 100% compatible with the game optimizer so only a very small minority of titles it has no interest to release the top if it concerns only 3 titles on millions. and all high-end Sony have a screen 120 Hz x1 does not deviate from the rule. we will talk about it in 1 years when the mod will come out. Sony will never offer to change the refresh of the screen just as it does not propose to change the screen resolution. Short end of the debate we'll talk when a mod out and yes on the RPG 60 or 120 FPS hardly change anything, there is too little movement to realize a few things. it is only useful for the game (type of shooting with fast movement that you will see a difference)

120hz with daily use?
Battery life from 6 soc to 3.
Nope.
I dont know maybe it doesnt...

Sorry for reviving an old thread, but yesterday I decided to try CoD Mobile on my Xperia 1 and it runs great except for a slight snag, it doesn't fill the whole screen. There are 3 thin black bars on the bottom and the sides of the image, as if the display resolution is a bit lower than the screen and instead of fitting the image to the screen it just goes top-center.
Anyone else have this experience with CoD Mobile? My Xperia 1 is fully updated to the latest firmware, and from older videos on youtube it seems like the image should fill up the whole screen. Can anyone with experience clarify?

Its CoD related, contact the dev of it !! Not all apps/games are optimized for those kind of screens like the Xperia 1.

The Android 10 full screen navigation broke the full screen support for some games on 21:9 display. The only way I know to temporarily solve this issue is to change to three buttons home navigation before you launch the game. This will annoy people who has a lot of icons in Home because they will be shifted when you switch in between of both navigation modes.

Any good Xperia Z5 vs X camera performance article?

Hi there,
There is a Z5 vs X camera review here:
https://recombu.com/mobile/article/sony-xperia-x-vs-xperia-z5-vs-samsung-galaxy-s7-camera-review
(actually, the article is Z5 vs X vs S7 review, but I don't pay much attention to the S7).
From what I can read, Z5 and X camera experiences are vastly similar.
Anybody with a link to another review comparing the Z5 and the X?
Also, the X doesn't support 4k camera recording? Crazy!
From what I read neither X model supports 4k recording mode. I am even wondering if it supports 1080p 120fps and/or 720p 240fps.. The SD820 can easily handle it, SD800 handles 55mbit 4k recording without problems. Also other brands using SD820 does 4k recording so we can rule out the SoC as being the problem. That leaves us with it being badly designed as in heat management, sensor gets to warm (strange considering previous Z phones) or just a business decision. All are stupid and bad decisions and it looks like they are going the Doro phone way.
That said that comparision is pretty much worthless. All the photos are downscaled and you cant see them in larger size so it only thing to compare is colors and exposure.

even I watched a youtube video that showed Xperia X overheated after only 4mins of 1080p 60fps video recording!
I'm going to assume that was a defective device, but if this is going to be a widespread problem then SONY is done!

Well that was a fake video. Looking at his comments he had a grief with Sony claiming all previous Xperia Z phones overheated in the same way amongst other ravishing comments. So we can disregard it when lots of people report it can record far beyond 4 minutes.
That said the X series do feel a bit like a 'pick parts of the shelf that are remaining and build a new phone' plus some added extras. They are going in the wrong direction and not listening to their users. They even calculate they will go at a loss this year on number of sold units.. Well of course! The definition of madness is doing the same thing over and over and expecting different result!
Our z5's camera overheats the same, right? I just tested it, 25 C ambient temperature, [email protected], it stops before 4 min mark. Doesn't it do the same for everyone?

no, actually my Z5p can record up to 40mins of 4K video without any overheating message or thermal throttle at the same ambient temperature!
I only get full storage error after 40mins+!

Then you've got a very special device. Most of us struggle with getting 5 minutes of 4K video.

I am supposed to be able to film in a normal room temperature of 19°C, however. Like I said, I can't do more than 5 minutes. The camera on this device is a major dissapointment — you'd they would've be fixed most of the problems after 4 generations.

that's really weird mate! my room temperature is usually between 21-25C and I can reach more than 40min of 4k!
the device temp becomes steady around 52C, what is your temp when you get the warning? (I use cpu temp to monitor it, it's free)

I will try again but if I recall, even since I bought it there were video reviews that showed 4k video recording stopping well before 10 mins mark. I remember trying it last winter, 17-20 degrees C, it stopped at around 5 minutes.
update: I tried the 4k outside, breezy, 22 deg C. I stopped it myself after 10 mins, CPU was at 52 C from 40 on idle. Also my phone is in its spigen case, filmed on external sdcard.
I imagine the ambient temperature to make or break the difference. I will try some other time inside at 25 degrees or more, I expect the camera to stop working before 10 minutes. I know it did so in the past.

How is 90Hz display

Does the 90hz do any better performance to video watching like motion interpolation. For Axon 10 pro it adds more frames to the actual frames thus make the video less blury and smooth .it will do the same to games ,YouTube , video players ,etc ,does Nubia also has same function?
I wonder how to know the diference, especially in game frame rate? any app to prove it?
The panel is great, it's made by a Chinese company, the name escapes me. There's no noticeable defects, the 90hz is noticeable.

The things you said is different. The feature may not available on video players
.Now Only works on mediatek phones and Axon 9 pro and 10 pro. If you don't know what is that refer below video. What it does is It will add more fake frames to reduce blurry effect. Now most of the Tv Comes with this feature.
Left side you see is the Modified Frame Video and Right side is the Normal Frames video

Just play below video you should notice blurry frames

90 vs 60 and Resolution

I am using 60Hz refresh rate as well as FHD+
I do not watch high resolution movies on my phone (I prefer an 80" TV for that) but I have tried running the phone at 90HZ and QHD+ and I just do not see, or feel any difference! My scrolling through apps, and pictures, and web pages move just as fast on 60Hz as they do on 90Hz. The screen resolution also does not appear to change at all between FHD and QHD. Don't get me wrong, my phone is on 10 and running like a champ! I do not know if my battery would run out sooner on the higher rates but I just think that this thing is so fast as it is with all the top line hardware that running it at the higher rates would just use more battery with very limited, to no real benefit.
Am I the only one who feels this way?
As someone who uses a 144Hz gaming display and 90Hz OP7Pro daily 60Hz is painfully choppy...

I would like to know why you bought a 1440p 90hz panel if you wish to use 1080p 60? 1440p is obviously more sharper and cleaner image and higher refreshrate = smoother experience I hate to see these comments "I don't see the difference" I always feel like the user is blind to me the difference is so obvious. But as the comment bellow I also game on a 144hz panel so anything less is choppy to me too. So I guess if you never used a high refresh panel it might be not noticeable to you.

I do not play games on a phone. I have more important things to do with a $700.00 tool. I see just fine. I do not buy a phone based on screen refresh rate or resolution. 1080p on a 6 inch screen is better than many 55 inch TV's. I buy my phones based on price, battery size, and a few other features. So my perception is not wrong. I have tried multiple combinations of the various settings and there is LITTLE to NO appreciable difference! Maybe it makes a difference for games, but come on, games? Oh well, to each his own!
Liam definitely has a point. Although I never use 1080 I can understand how 1440 might not be a big enough difference that the extra battery is worth it. However the 90hz is much smoother during everyday use than 60hz. I use forced 90 and it hurts scrolling in any other phone. Don't know how much it affects games

I'm pretty sure he was talking about gaming on a 144hz monitor, not on his phone.
So theoretically going from 144hz to 60hz would be a HUGE difference and would definitely be noticeable.

90Hz is not only good for gaming. There's was a time when Google Chrome stopped supporting 90Hz (I think it was a month ago). At the very first second I was using Chrome with 60Hz without knowing I just thought "wtf why is it so laggy". So yeah, the difference between 60Hz and 90Hz is very big. Glad chrome supports 90Hz again.
90Hz ftw!
I guess it all boils down to not only "what" you do on your phone, but also "how" you choose to do it...as in which app(s) you choose to get things done. I keep changing settings and even rebooting between changes just to make sure they really take. And I do not see any appreciable difference! Not trying to make trouble, not disparaging this phone at all because I am enjoying it very much! But for me, the way I use it, and the apps that are important to me..the faster refresh rate as well as the higher resolution are anecdotal at best. The whole purpose of this thread for me was to make sure that my phone was truly working properly when using the higher settings. Evidently it is??? YMMV
This is an age-old battle and it's pointless as this is very subjective and changes over time.
Understand that it is normal for a person not to percieve huge difference between 60 and 90Hz if you are used to 60 and going to 90 short term. Your brain needs time to adjust and "speed up" your perception and it takes weeks or months. After that period of getting used to the fluidity of higher refresh display, going back to 60 should seem like a slideshow. Someone used to 60Hz will not see a huge difference, someone coming from 144Hz will immediatelly feel the screen lag at 60. Another thing is dark mode, dark mode indirectly raises your pixel response times, making movement more blurry and the 90Hz less prominent.
As for resolution on this phone, you can clearly see the small text in browsers is more blurry and causes more eye fatigue.
At the end of the day if you value the battery more than screen clarity, it's better to keep both low before you spoil yourself and there's no going back
we all know that on Android 9, not all the apps runs at 90Hz inclued Chrome, the reason is the battery consumption of course
idk if this still true on Android 10, but Chrome is runing at 90Hz on Android 10
so i guess, 1+ unlock the 90Hz to more apps, still mix it with the 60Hz to optimize the battery, so that is why we kind of dont see any differences
the only method to compare is download the Auto90 app from appstore, force the phone to runs at 90Hz all the time then you'll see there is differences or not
I dont mind about resolution since FHD+ is more than Reasonable with color tuning , but the frame rate is one of the main pros of one plus new line up .
So i force all them 90hz on all apps . Leaving iphone users insecurely baffled
I'm usually on a 240hz monitor. The 90hz screen is very nice feeling and whenever I look at my 6t I want to throw up.
^^LOL, good one's

120fps not working on anything

Has anyone found 120fps to work on anything? Even in games that could run at 120fps on S20 Ultra, they seem to be capped at 60fps on the Fold 2. CPU/GPU / temperature stats all seem low so i don't think they're throttled.

You might have already checked, under settings, display, motion smoothness, it needs to be set to adaptive. My unlocked was on adaptive out of the box. I have seen vids of carrier versions being set on standard out of the box.
I'm having the same experience. I've had a few phones with 120hz and the games that are supposedly able to run at 120fps don't seem to actually be running at that rate. the s20 ultra had certain games that ran and some that didn't. even fewer with my note 20 ultra and fold 2. I wonder what the trick to get the to work is. I've tried all the recommendations from people on these forums but nothing works. Some games will go 120fps, but they seem to be few are far between. And i'm not going to play a game just cause of the 120fps possibility but it would be nice that the ones that I do play that advertise that rate, would actually play at that rate.
Go to battery and pick high performance mode.insted of the balance

When I had my s20 I could get subway surfers to 120 fps and it was glorious, lol. It really does help with gameplay. But my Note 20 ultra and fold sit at 60. Oh, and my OnePlus 8 pro plays surfers at 120 fps too.
I'm confused. Aren't FPS and refresh rate in MHz different things?

Theoretically yes. Number of frames displayed per second depends on multiple different factor e.g processing / rendering speed and refresh rate of the screen. Bottleneck doesn't seem to be gpu/cpu so its capped by software and can't utilise the full processing power / refresh rate of the screen.

General 1080p Default Screen Resolution

Now that the embargo is up, one of the things I've found interesting from the reviews is that the 7 Pro screen resolution defaults to 1080p, and you have to go into the settings to switch it to 1440p.
Maybe Google thinks people will notice the improved battery life more than they will notice the reduced resolution.
Unless you hold the phone a few inches from your face, or you use a magnifying glass, you will NOT see any discernable difference. So it depends on what is more important to "you", longer battery life per day, or imaginary higher screen resolution?
Interesting, I didn't know that. Does that really save that much battery? The whole screen is still being used.
It's also a weird thing to do marketing wise - hey you've got a great display, but we'll show you worse quality...
What's the point of having the higher resolution if many people will never use it?

Sometimes they just make us do all the settings which are suitable for us!

Some people are into specs and will buy based on that alone, whether it's the SOC, the screen resolution, the refresh rate, or the camera modules even though in real world use most of the specs make no discernable difference to 99% of end users.
Is it possible to make a Toggle to switch between 1080p and 1440p in Tasker?
I'm leaving mine at 1080p. It's plenty good. Hardly even noticable.
I cant tell a difference, well not one that makes any difference so i'll leave it at 1080p if its going to give a bit more battery life.
Has anyone done a comparison on the difference between 1080 and 1440

The only thing I can reliably see is when in the setting itself when you toggle between the two resolutions I notice that the clock in the notification shade will move about 1/8th inch to the left on QHD and then move back to the right on FHD. Give it a try and see.

As I mentioned previously, I currently have an S21 ultra (snapdragon) and evaluating via this forum my buying the 7 Pro. On my S21U I have the Display Tester app (available in both free and "Pro" versions). The S21U also comes, out of the box, set to 1080P. However, when you look at 1080P using Display Tester you will see that the gamma of the display is out of wack. There the gamma is around 1.4 or so, leading to a somewhat washed out image. Setting it to WQHD+ (3200 x 1400) Gamma goes to 2.2, the accurate setting.
Interested if anybody wants to test this out on the 7P.

Just tested it. Same exact results you report on the S21

According to my (possibly fallible eyes), it’s 1.4 @ 1080 and between 2.2 and 2.3 at 1440.

How is that a bad thing exactly?

Here are a couple of links which explain Gamma and why it is important:
The Main Reason Monitor Calibration Is Essential
Gamma is used in digital photography to determine the image's brightness and is important to understand.
www.lifewire.com
The importance of gamma
"Gamma" has to do with how a display translates input signal levels into the intensity of output light. We show you how to understand the relationship.
www.androidauthority.com
This should be tested in both 60hz and Adaptive/120hz mode as the calibration between different refreshrates can differ.
