Here's our detailed review of the latest budget offering from Sony - the Xperia 10 VI
Sony made a slight adjustment to its flagship lineup with the Xperia 1 VI, going for a more conventional 19.5:9 aspect ratio and ditching the 4K screen, but there's still a way to get the essential Sony 21:9 experience for not a ton of money. Enter the Xperia 10 Mark VI.
We have a brand new PhoneArena Review Rating system and because of the more demanding criteria of that benchmark, overall review ratings are now lower. That does not mean there are surprising new shortcoming of phones we review, but it is just the way this new rating works. We believe that it gives readers a much better idea of how phones compare to others in the same price class, so make sure to always look at the scores in the context of the averages.
One of the main differentiators is the screen refresh rate. The Xperia 10 VI is stuck in the past with its 60Hz refresh rate, while other midrangers have long moved to 90 or even 120Hz.The CIE 1931 xy color gamut chart represents the setof colors that a display can reproduce,with the sRGB colorspaceserving as reference.The chart also provides a visual representation of a display's color accuracy.
Photos from the main camera look so-so, I kind of expected more from the advertised AI-infused algorithms behind the camera system. Even in good lighting conditions photos from the main camera look soft and there's some loss of detail, especially in the corners of the image. The dynamic range is not amazing, either. Some photos look quite flat, and when you add the soft effect, the end result is not great.
The latter was dreadful in the past few Xperia models, but the guys from Sony have listened, and now you don't have to tap twice on the Side Sense bar but swipe the bar toward the screen. It's more convenient and useful, and if you swipe the bar up, you get the app launcher as well.The phone comes with the same 5,000 mAh cell as its predecessor, but something has happened, as battery life isn't what it used to be.
