Japan but I wanted to check this phone out anyway because on a hardware level it's really cool and it's likea first smartphone the lit lights I think lights phone one let's see what's in the box oh it goes from a white box to a black box with a little red like a logo okay here's the phone we'll look at that in a second Sim removal tool and oh we have a case and what looks to be a type c to type a adapter and then there's this rubber case oh and it has a little Leica logo so even when you put a case on this phone you never lose your Leica logo that's important guys or you can tape it oh yeah just a lot of Leica users tape their um logos because you don't want people walking on the street knowing that you have a Leica which is like $10,000 just strapped to you so the price of this phone is roughly $1,700 USD it's not exact because it's actually a Japanese yen conversion it's actually a rebadged version of the shark Aquos R six which is also only available in Japan and a couple other choice markets but the cool feature of both of those phones is that this phone and the sharp have a 1 in sensor on the camera body just like the Sony Xperia Pro I that I checked out recently now unfortunately for the pro I something that we actually weren't able to mention in the video at the time that we made it was the 1-in sensor in that phone doesn't actually use the entire sensor I'm not 100% sure if this phone uses an entire 1-in sensor but I think it does okay so let's take a physical tour of the phone on the right we have a volume rocker an assistant button and then power and lock and then you actually notice on the phone it's nural on both sides for grip which is a nice touch on the bottom we have a headphone jack type-c a speaker and mic on the top we've got a is it dual SIM let's see no but it has a single Sim and a Micro SD expansion which apparently is up to 1 TB which is pretty solid I really like how it feels in the hand we've got a gorilla glass matte black silicone feeling back if you've ever used or held Al Leica this feels like it is very inspired by the design of their cameras because you have that cylindrical smoothness to the entire phone and then it's a black and silver finish with the obviously lovely like a red badge and then we have a lens cap guys a lens cap on a smartphone camera it sticks on magnetically you see that it's kind of silly like that they have this I mean I get it cuz the camera bu is like almost as thick as the phone guys like look at that the case Andy do you see this aesthetically even though it's a thicker phone and it's kind of on the bigger side I really like it so far now this phone is $1700 us and what do you get for that well it has a Snapdragon 888 obviously the one-in sensor that we're going to test in a second a 6.6 in EXO OLED 1 to 240 HZ variable refresh rate display but it feels like pretty good for variable refresh rate this phone kind of has a weird resolution it's 2730 X 1260 with a 2,000 nit Peak prus 12 gigs of RAM and a 5,000 mAh battery so you can start to see with all those things that kind of adds up to a lot and that's probably why they're charging 1,700 USD but the biggest selling feature of course is this 1in sensor all right let's open the camera app now like I has said that it's a pretty simple app that lets you just completely focus on taking photos honestly it looks like a pretty standard smartphone camera app so we've got yeah 3x2 20 megapixels we're using the full thing um no inbody image stabilization so it's all electronic image stabilization for the photo and video when you go from 1.0 to 2.0 it zooms in digitally but when you go from 7 to 1.0 it just shows you grid lines I think of what it's taking let me see that photo let's see yeah okay interesting the 7 is the full sensor and the 0.1 is just taking a crop of that full sensor image so the camera in the Leica if I haven't gone over it already is the sumon 1.9 19 mm asph which stands for aspherical the quick explanation of that is that the lens is sharper than a non- aspherical version of this design take a photo here and I actually have an iPhone and a pixel 6 Pro Leica has a very interesting mode that they've added to the camera app called light looks and it's a black and white version that they've kind of color toned it it looks good like right off the bat it has that feeling that you get taking a black and white image on like a like a monochrome camera it has like the depth guys I know it all feels vague in description but Leica is a feeling brand they want to emit a feeling in the use of their cameras in the looks of their images and the vibe of that is what they're trying to translate to this phone now also I realize in the camera app there is an m. photo mode and if you go to the settings for this mode that is where you see the format where you can save JPEG and RAW and it has a little balancing so you know if you're kind of off-kilter so I just realized that on top of leica's version of the camera app there's also Al the lights camera and that's just a really simple camera app that gives you a focus Point middle grid frame autofocus Gallery button and then a shutter that's it so I think this is what they meant by an experience that is completely uninterrupted by any of the stuff that you could do with your camera and it's just to focus on taking photos why don't we have a look at how the speakers sound and how the display looks even though they're stereo one of them is front facing it's not good um okay let's take a look at the display so just looking at the HDR quality of this display it looks pretty good yeah the display on this thing is pretty awesome and even though the audio isn't good the main focus of this phone is the camera so why don't we also test the video but first a word from our sponsor secretly ABS thanks to secret Labs for sponsoring today's video secret lab chairs are engineered to keep you incredibly comfortable for long hours at work and play their new Titan Evo 2022 chair keeps you feeling comfortable for longer it has four-way lumbar support Ultra comfortable line of different seat materials and more all chairs come with a 5-year extend warranty and a 49-day return policy head to the link in the video description and check out secret Labs today let's try the camera one here's the iPhone and here's the pixel uh let's go to like Alex's car or something Alex's car is such a good color for photos whoa careful Andy one two three okay and this is just a quick video test to give you an idea of what this looks like it's also taking AI photos oh yeah there's some shallows at the field there that's actually not bad but yeah I'm actually like I'm as I get closer to you and closer to your camera the bokeh gets better all right let's go back inside it's getting cold so I'm just taking a look at the video that we took really quickly video is not really the focus of this phone I don't expect it to be very good here's jonno it looks okay and the Boke up is pretty natural looking for a phone looks decently Shad out autofocus is struggling a little bit where this phone shines is definitely The Stills that you can get off of it so on the left we have the iPhone which looks very much like an iPhone image super bright hdri almost feeling and on the left this is the Leica image honestly looks pretty good to me now it's hard to say if the blur is that much significantly better cuz these aren't quite at the exact same angle but even on his bike here you can see how much sharper that is on the iPhone and how much Less in focus on the Leica and the Leica has kind of like a natural contrasty but like the look that you'd get out of a camera not a smartphone let's look at the pixel as well actually ooh pixel's really contrasty in a way that I actually don't love in this photo it's clear that with the computational photography background stuff the iPhone and the pixel are sharpened on capture whereas the Leica is not okay let's take a look at that photo that we took outside pixels quite a bit warmer it's more contrasty as well and they look like Flagship smartphone photos and then the Leica so yeah the Le is quite a bit wider than the pixel and the iPhone from the same spot so on this tree image from a detail perspective I'm sure a lot of people if pulled would like the pixel photo and the iPhone photo more but when I look at it from like a photography point of view which of these images I would prefer to edit and actually kind of try to manipulate and do something with I think I'd go with the Leica because yes it's not as sharp out of the box but you could probably get it if you like that punchier look but you also have a shallower depth the field like you can see on the closeup of the leaf here how much more out of focus the back Leaf that's a decent amount more shallow it actually is quite noticeable in this image man I'm impressed all right let's take a look at our last photo man the iPhone image is like very bright Shadows are brought up as expected the Leica photo is darker contrasti here but what I was seeing and then the pixel image man the pixel this time around really goes for the postprocessing because you see every little detail in the shadows here again compared to the Leica it's a lot brighter a photo but the Leica is what I was seeing with my eyes so between the three of these cameras the Leica is the most real some of you out there might prefer the iPhone and the pixel image and it is very convenient but for me someone who enjoys editing photos and who would potentially edit a photo off my phone if I thought it was good enough I think I'm going to go with the Leica in the photo examples that I have here it's really quite an enjoyable camera to use now I want to test one more thing I actually don't know that even if you went through all the effort to order this phone from Japan can you use your sim and just pop it in with no issues let me just see if I can call you Andy it's ringing Branda is calling okay so that part Works how come my data is not working I'm not sure why it's not in the scope of this video for me to troubleshoot that yeah yeah depth of field is clearly more shallow and the photos I think are in my opinion better than the iPhone and the pixel from a like photographer's perspective you can edit this the colors are very true to life that's really nice natural bokeh it's so cool okay cool see you later bye so if you put the effort in to buying this phone just make sure you know that it'll work in your region and I hope if they ever make a phone like this again if like it keeps going that they released this worldwide because now I want one even though it's expensive I hope you guys enjoyed this video as much as I enjoyed making it this phone is really cool and I hope it's just a sign of the future of smartphones and the cameras that can be put into them because I have no confirmation of this if this phone uses the entire 1-in sensor on the phone unlike the Sony this might be one of the best smartphone cameras ever made and not for everybody to be very clear but for me absolutely"}
