Review Sony Xperia 1 VII by Trusted Reviews
High-quality display despite lower resolution.
A strong performance in all areas
Practical additions such as wired audio ports, the microSD card slot, and the camera button.
The camera may be good, but you have to work for it.
The camera requires you to work to get a good shot.
The software is basic and quite lazy.
Way too expensive and not enough improvements compared to the last model.

Review Sony Xperia 1 VII by Journal du Geek
The screen is balanced and bright
Performance and autonomy
The finish with a textured glass back
The versatility and consistency of the camera block
Always a jack plug and excellent quality as well
Its price
Still no fingerprint sensors under the screen
No charger and no cable in the packaging
It's even more expensive this year.
