Whopping Sony Xperia 1 III specs upgrade leak could see the upcoming smartphone swimming alongside big fish like the Asus ROG Phone 5 and Samsung Galaxy S21 Ultra

There has been a supposed leak about the Sony Xperia 1 III and its specs that will surprise and please fans of the brand. Apparently, the Xperia 1 III will boast the kind of RAM firepower that phones such as the Asus ROG Phone 5, Samsung Galaxy S21 Ultra, and Xiaomi Mi 10 Ultra have previously wielded.

Cameras, it`s main Sony problem many years. Mark II? has good, but not the top camera on market. Sony needs Apple programmers, because  even Alpha camera devision, can`t wright good software for smartphone camera >:(

No native Chinese will say like what that guy Caybule posts on Weibo. It looks like machine translation to me. He always deletes all his posts, too. The source is dubious af.

Quality smartphone photography is more about software postprocessing and AI these days. It doesn't matter how good your hardware is: look what Pixel phones can do with average hardware.

A standalone Camera 'Pro' app with many manual settings is not good enough. Most users only care about auto settings point-and-shoot, getting it right the first time.

If Sony wants to sell its phones to 'enthusiasts', then it should expect an 'enthusiast' number of sales: few and limited. Professional photographers are not going to pick up an Xperia phone just because of the Sony brand - it doesn't work that way.

I hate to say this, but you do have a point. When I saw the All About Windows Phone website did a camera comparison between the Xperia 1 ii and the Lumia 950 XL, I'm really surprised to see how the Lumia could still produce a better photo quality than the Xperia despite the Lumia being a 2015 smartphone running a dead mobile OS. It shouldn't happen since Sony has its own Alpha camera division. At this point, they should be Google Pixel's direct competitor in terms of camera performance.
