Sony Xperia 1 II - A return to form for Sony?

I would, I've emailed the redemption people at exertis now, as that appears is all you can do!

Not had mine yet but the terms do say there is a 14 day cooling off period then once verified (which I guess can only happen after the cooling off period has expired?) headphones will arrive within 28 days. That imho means there is a 6 week period from the 18th June for them to arrive?

rodders · 25 Jul 2020 at 15:17

Well I guess, but what takes 28 days to deliver these days!

I'm guessing they've allowed a fair bit of time for processing and once they've pulled their finger out the actual delivery is probably on a couple of days.

Not defending them in anyway as it's way beyond the normal/reasonable processing time (Samsung promotions have always been much quicker in my experience) but I'll allow the 6 weeks from launch before chasing.

Sony need to price it a lot lower than their competitors to gain traction.

Been told they will start shipping end of next week. No idea why so long, but should have them soon!

Just took delivery of the headphones after chasing them up earlier this week, like others said they were/are planning to ship end of this week.

Glad to see some are starting to arrive. Still nothing here - maybe next week they will show up?!

Just had an email saying mine have been despatched by DHL.

Fry750 · 7 Aug 2020 at 10:45

Just had the same email.

rodders · 7 Aug 2020 at 11:34

Ditto - talk about leaving it till the last minute lol

WhiteHartMart · 7 Aug 2020 at 12:02

Just got the email too. Checked the tracking and they are due to arrive in about 9 minutes time

Simmz · 7 Aug 2020 at 12:14

Yeah, mines arrived up for sale now hahaha.

Typical they arrive just as the 1000XM4 launches.

rodders · 7 Aug 2020 at 14:17

Arrived, but not selling!

As claimed in the video, the photos by the camera should be completely free from oversaturation and other tricks present in the images by other smartphones' cameras:

"Sony didn't tweak that much of the output coming..."

Best monthly deal? X

ash_scotland88 · 10 Aug 2020 at 10:48

So since the update the camera apps have both been crashing. Some times I can't even take one picture without it crashing.

Anybody the same or heard of the same?

So Xperia 5 II has been leaked and apart from obvious size differences to 1, potentially looks to be adding 120Hz panel which actually makes it a pretty interesting device.

rodders · 29 Aug 2020 at 13:35

Makes this model a but of a joke, if they fit a 120Hz panel to that.
