P30 pro has a larger area screen. You can work out what that requires compared to a smaller one

SOC 855 is a better chip than the Kirin 980

SOC 855 has a better GPU than the Kirin 980

Xperia 1 is nothing special, gets the same as my mix 3 which has a similar sizes battery

Probably no room unless you want an even bigger phone, bigger bezels, bigger cost

Nope anothe mamufacture can make it why not sony.

If u love sony dont always pretend they always right.

As a fans if there something wrong wr jave to tell sony about it.
[Sony Xperia 1 Guides, News, & Discussion] Mackay53:
Because Sony is not the same as other manufacturers. Can't have it all so certain things are not included.

No need to tell Sony about the smaller battery. You either buy it based on what they offer or you don't buy it.

With my usual usage:

Xperia 1:

Mate 10 pro (previous phone):

Pretty big difference, I have the feel I Always need to charge my phone ( I never go under 20% and more than 80% charge to rpeserve the battery, worked great with the huawei). But since overall I like this Sony phone a lot, well, I'll just get used to it. But the Sony still drain a little more energy than the huawei, but they don't handle background app the same way.
[Sony Xperia 1 Guides, News, & Discussion] xerxess:
you are quite wrong about size display, size display nothing to do with consumption but how many pixel size and ppi in display thats the matter..

if it was have 12 inch display if only showing 720p then it still low consumption display.

you also wrong about processor..

kirin is huawei own chips, it really well optimized to huawei and have low consumption power but bit less power than snapdragon in gpu term.

so technically huawei to be expected have lead the battery life but reality is not.

sony xperia 1 have to be expected lag behind due the character display always doing sharpness in video content which in tes it showing video too and smaller battery .. we dont know for sure if benchmark material also have hdr or not, 4k support or not..

if you are understand about software, you can see clear which phone in final have well optimized.

looks huawei mate 20x its well optimized better than p30 pro in more less same spec..

of course the worst on that video is iphone.., either processors too high consumption or just pooor battery management.

in the end the phone showing well optimized are sony xperia 1 and huawei mate 20x, and for well composition hardware is pixel. combined middle chipset and small-medium battery is great

if people still just focus on spec sheet paper, entirely they will tricked by marketing forever. like megapixel war, higher mp is great but not always great. there is about composition hardware.

---------- Post added at 09:25 AM ---------- Previous post was at 09:12 AM ----------

to be fair your comparison not quite fair..

yes i dont say xperia 1 will be winner here, of course huawei mate 10 also well optimized combined with bigger battery.

but in your comparison, applications was different.

look at your launcher, in xperia 1 you using 3rd party launcher thats absolutely will drain your phone vs stock huawei own launcher. im using xperia stock launcher and the consumption is very low
[Sony Xperia 1 Guides, News, & Discussion] snake218:
For the specs and screen type, it's a fair and decent battery life. Like i said, personally I'm getting 7-8 hours of SOT.
[Sony Xperia 1 Guides, News, & Discussion] Mackay53:
Research and official figures says otherwise.

All phones will have the same resolution so can't use PPI as an argument, all will have enough pixels on to support 1080p
[Sony Xperia 1 Guides, News, & Discussion] xerxess:
hmmm got it i think you are right.. about that
[Sony Xperia 1 Guides, News, & Discussion] Hildr:
I used the same launcher on my mate 10 pro, same app were installed, just that between the charge and the Screenshot I did not use the same. My phone environment and usage didn't really change for 2 years I'm on Android now.

And what is important is the mean measure on 7 days.

But you are right that the screen off time is not camparable since now I'm listening to music over Bluetooth. The deep sleep mode and overal screen off time is far better on Xperia 1. But screen on time is low. It's fair because of the screen, being in Creator mode all the time doesn't help either. The battery is good considering what it does, but my charge frequency get highter comparing to the mate 10 pro. The fact the battery is smaller is not really an excuse, that's a design choice from sony, and shouldn't affect the usage.

If someone want a phone that can endure a long usage because they don't have access to power, there will be better phones, but again, considering the small battery, the crisp screen, the Creator mode that upscale and convert SDR content to HDR like, the phone does well, really well (the deep sleep mode is stellar, just check my comment on offscreen section). And it's still better than the Apple counter part.
[Sony Xperia 1 Guides, News, & Discussion] xerxess:
yes you are right, agree with you, your explanation is fair and people can understand it very well to make decision
[Sony Xperia 1 Guides, News, & Discussion] Mackay53:
PPI doesn't matter in the video, think about it.

In the video is the content 4k? No it's not as the other phones won't support it. Everything would be in 1080p

Does 1080p use all all the pixels on the Xperia 1 needed for 4k? Of course not, it used enough pixels for 1080p

Does PPI matter when comparing 1080p to 1080p? Not really as it will be all similar.

Is the Xperia 1 always 4k? No of course not so not all the pixels will be used and will be switched off resulting in a lower used ppi
[Sony Xperia 1 Guides, News, & Discussion] xerxess:

[Sony Xperia 1 Guides, News, & Discussion] Hildr:
Well, in fact a 4k screen that run FHD or QHD will not just switch off pixels to match the definition. Think about it, qhd is 4time less pixel than 4K and FHD is 16times less. You would have a screen that is mostly black if it was the case, like a night sky.

In fact in QHD and FHD the 4k screen just multiply the pixel to match it's resolution, and, depending on the device, apply a filter to smooth it.

Where you are not wrong is that for the same size, a 4k screen will not consumme more power than a 1080p one:

Light power is linear, 2x20W spots will emit the same light as a single 40W light spot.

In this case, that means if you have the same brightness on your two screens, each pixel of the 4k screen will just use 16times less power than the one in the FHD screen to have the same power output.

So overall, the main power drain of a screen that is emitting light, will be the same regardless of the number of pixels.

But, what change is the GPU usage. A native 4k app will stress the GPU far more than in FHD. But if you apply a really good filter to your FHD content to upscale it to 4k will also consume more energy than just displaying a bicubic upscaled content.

Here one the xperia, the upscale is really neat. I do not do a comparison, since I can't, there is no other 4k screen, but for TV, you can see difference in this matter between different model, and this phone does a really great job here since everything is so crisp and neat.

Lastly, mostly all app now goes up to QHD, and like your computer app, it's not because it can goes up to qhd that the app can't run in HD mode on very low/old phone. It will just adjust its resolution to the screen. Also, there are some apps that run in 4k natively (netflix, youtube, sony album and video at least) and from a tweet of sony officials, the phone should run mostly in 4k, unless the app doesn't support it. So I assume the UI is 4k too.

TL;DR: 4k screen itself will never consume more than a FHD (or maybe some % due to rendement). What consume more is GPU when upscaling/running native 4k apps that exist since it does an upscal to not have 15/16 of the screen pitch black (for a FHD content).

But in the end what matter is iff the battery is big enought for our usage and the screen pleasant enought for the trade-off if there is any. Numbers are just a marketing screen, what matter is what it really does and what we really need.

For me, it's ok. I had never seen a movie on a smartphone, and I already saw 2 on this one in less than a week. A shame my 1000€ computer screen is not HDR -_-

[Sony Xperia 1 Guides, News, & Discussion] Xeon:
I posted this on Sony forums... should give you a hint :

" ANNNDDDD..... I found what's draining my battery after pulling my hair out for the last week Ever since I got the device, I had an idle power consumption ( screen off ) around 120-140 mA and my battery would drain at least 12-15% when sleeping.

Since we can't root the device to find out what's exactly happening and the built-in battery reporting app is useless, I realized that there's an app called GSAM battery monitor that would still provide you with all the information needed without root if you grant permission using adb shell.

- Download the app

- Enable developper mode

- Enable USB debugging ( google is your friend )

- Download Xperia 1 drivers from Sony website ( update drive in device manager for the phone )

- Install ADB tool on windows ( again google is your friend, totally worth it )

- Type : adb shell pm grant com.gsamlabs.bbm android.permission.BATTERY_STATS

You should have an output like this :

-----------------

1|J9110:/ $ pm grant com.gsamlabs.bbm android.permission.BATTERY_STATS

J9110:/ $

C:\Users\Karim>

------------------

Go back to the app and review everything draining the battery.

In my case, it was ironically Google Photos.... yes a built-in app that you can only disable. What was happening is that after restoring whatsapp ( 40,000+ of pics and videos ) it was attempting to sort them and upload them.

I disabled the auto backup but that did not help. What was really going on is a feature called " Face grouping " analyzing every single pic.

Turning it off and my power consumption dropped from 500-ish mA to 200 mA. When screen is off battery drain is around 28-35 mA now ( 4 times lower ) and the battery drops 2-3% overnight.

Many different reasons could drain battery depending on what you have installed and your media etc.. but if you suffer from battery drain, give the app a try.

Btw my battery used to last me 18-20 hours, by that time it would be dead. I'm now finishing the day with 30-ish% left. "
[Sony Xperia 1 Guides, News, & Discussion] najehh:
Okay let's see. So yesterday I got 4:30 min SOT. All I do with the phone is : Bluetooth is always on cuz of my headphones,NFC on aways and 4g as well. Watching movies on Netflix or Amazon on prime or YouTube on rear occasion playing PUBG or dead trigger 2 . But mostly for watching movies ..

People, you can help me.

I disassemble my "xiaomi rows note 5", to replace the chip in which it is the power conector.

And after that, the touchscreen does not work.

Where have I made a mistake? They can turn on, fingerprint works but can not unlock the screen because I need to enter a unlock pattern.

I looked at all the connectors that serve to connect the parts and I do not find the problem.

i separated that conector chip that i put on still touch does not work.

Did i destroy the touchscreen or?

Hi,

I have an XDA Orbit. Everything works ok except when I try to use the phone, It searches but cannot find a network. The inserted SIM is o2 Pay&Go. It does ask for my pin on startup and can read the SIM history but when I try to call, the calls ends after about 2 seconds and it comes up with the following error message:

"Cannot complete the call. The signal may be unavailable or the phone number may be invalid. Verify the number and try again later"

The SIM is ok as I have used it in another phone.

Any suggestions guys...

Regards

Might I add something. After doing all the steps of thimprfct , enable developer option again and see if oem unlocking is there and tick on or else if you reboot the phone you will be stuck on ONLY SAMSUNG OFFICIAL DISPLAY. So don't reboot until you see the oem unlocking ticked on in developer option. It will appear after a day you flash the patched boot file.

[MENTION=7911173]Star Dust[/MENTION],

[good that you mentioned! I will add that issue in my thread. thank you! :)

I've added the issue to the guide, to make it complete.]

I'm happy that you were able to root your device through my guide! :)

afaik & spoken from my own experience, oem unlock button should be enabled automatically after flashing the patched boot.img.

this is what magisk generally does.

a wait time of 1 day or more is NOT what happens

if you already unlocked the bootloader before root.

this is a WRONG information.

and also a wrong information is, that everyone is stuck at the samsung boot logo when oem unlocking is off/the bootloader is locked again while rooted.

normally, what happens is, that your device becomes unrooted and/or does a factory reset.

there must have been another issue! ---

are you sure that you have enabled oem unlocking before root, as in the guide?

make sure to disable system auto update in developer options after root!

rule of thumb:

[the steps you made before root on your phone- think about them also after root. what I mean is, your device was reset, so some settings have to be re-applied (eg looking if oem unlocking is on).]

there's smth more to look at, after root.

I'll post a thread with more guidelines, soon. :)

what else have you done in/with your phone?

please tell me & let's see if we can reproduce what has happened!

always best wishes for you!

It happens to me a couple of times. I already rooted my j4 core even before you posted your tutorial.

Everytime I flash the patched boot.img or even doing a factory reset while rooted, the oem unlock switch disappear briefly in the developer option. If I restarted the phone before the switch appears, boom the phone always got stuck in ONLY SAMSUNG OFFICIAL message and then I rebooted to bootloader and it states the KG STATUS : PRENORMAL when it should be just CHECKING if your rooted and the oem unlock switch is tick on. I reproduce the issue many times. I flash the patched boot.img then reboot to recovery then factory reset then set up the phone then install magisk app then activate developer option and oem unlock switch is not there. It always appear to my phone after a day or atleast more than 12 hours.
[Samsung Galaxy J4+ Questions & Answers] Star Dust:
Oh man!!! That's a good news then.
[Samsung Galaxy J4+ Questions & Answers] thimprfct:
btw [MENTION=7911173]Star Dust[/MENTION], thx for your honesty! (that u rooted before my tutorial & didn't have your problems because of my tutorial) I appreciate that very much! ☮️

1.)while rooted, you can update magisk (patched boot.img) through magisk manager app. this way you avoid yourself much trouble.

in magisk manager settings you can tick the option: 'magisk hide-hide magisk from various forms of detection', this could help with your phone.

in magisk manager app main screen where you can update magisk/magisk manager, open the advanced settings & untick: preserve force encryption, preserve AVB 2.0/dm-verity, recovery mode. take care that these 3 are always unticked.

when you have twrp you can tick recovery mode to use it through magisk, but you will need a special module before you can use it.

2.)try flashing magisk patched boot.img without factory resetting your phone.

the phone will wether factory reset by itself after flashing (you only have to press one button during the boot process), or it boots straight to the home screen.

If you really want to start clean, I recommend to reflash your firmware with odin & re-root instead.

at least before we hopefully have a twrp!
