Points positifs
Points négatifs
Le Sony Xperia 1 VIII est un flagship haut de gamme Android doté d'un écran OLED 120Hz de 6,5 pouces, d'un processeur Snapdragon 8 Elite Gen 5 et d'une mémoire vive pouvant aller jusqu'à 16 Go. Son système d'appareil photo arrière redessiné met en évidence un téléobjectif de 48 MP beaucoup plus puissant, soutenu par des capteurs principaux et ultra-larges de 48 MP. Les critiques font l'éloge de l'engagement de Sony à offrir des caractéristiques phares rares, notamment une prise casque, un emplacement pour carte microSD, des haut-parleurs stéréo en façade, un bouton d'obturation dédié et un écran ininterrompu. Les performances sont bonnes, le design reste élégant et durable, et le téléphone bénéficie d'une protection IP65/IP68. Cependant, les critiques notent que la charge est lente, que l'autonomie de la batterie est seulement solide, que les fonctionnalités logicielles semblent limitées et que les outils de l'appareil photo IA peuvent être moins performants. Dans l'ensemble, le Xperia 1 VIII est un téléphone phare performant mais de niche qui plaira davantage aux fans fidèles de Sony et aux utilisateurs axés sur la création qu'aux acheteurs d'iPhone ou de Galaxy.

Critiques pour le/la Sony Xperia 1 VIII

Le Xperia 1 VIII ne s’adresse pas à tout le monde, ne serait-ce qu’en raison de son prix très élevé à une période où le pouvoir d’achat se contracte. On pourrait également citer son style un peu daté, notamment sur la partie logicielle. Et pourtant, c’est un véritable coup de cœur.

Reviewing the Sony Xperia 1 VIII, the burgundy sheep of the 2026 flagship line-up. I've been testing this phone for a fortnight, including a jaunt to Mexico to see how the camera tech, battery life and performance hold up under pressure. So, is the Sony Xperia 1 VIII worth that sky-high UK price?

EN→FRThe Sony Xperia 1 VIII keeps its signature tall and sleek look with a 6.5-inch LTPO OLED screen that supports 1 billion colors and a buttery-smooth 120Hz refresh rate. In plain English, that means scrolling feels incredibly fluid, and videos look stunning with deep blacks and vibrant colors. It is protected by Gorilla Glass Victus 2 on the front and Victus on the back, all wrapped in an aluminum frame. The phone is also built to survive the elements it has an IP65/IP68 rating, so it can handle low-pressure water jets and being submerged in up to 1.5 meters of water for 30 minutes. Under the hood, it runs on the latest Qualcomm Snapdragon 8 Elite Gen 5 chip built on a super-efficient 3nm process, which makes multitasking, gaming, and AI tasks lightning fast. You can choose from storage options ranging from 256GB to 1TB, with 12GB or 16GB of RAM, and there is even a dedicated microSD card slot if you need more space.

My Xperia 1 VIII review called out the software before Sony’s own AI Camera Assistant samples made headlines for making photos look worse. The camera hardware upgrade is real, but the software doesn't always do it justice. The Sony Xperia 1 VIII is one of the most interesting Xperia flagships in years, with a much stronger telephoto camera, classic Sony hardware features, a headphone jack, microSD support, front-facing speakers and a clean uninterrupted display. But after real-world testing across photography, video, zoom, low light and everyday use, the camera app and AI features left me with serious concerns. This review covers the Xperia 1 VIII camera system, telephoto upgrade, AI Camera Assistant, software experience, battery life, design, display, video, selfie camera and whether Xperia fans should upgrade from the Xperia 1 VII.

EN→FRThe Sony Xperia 1 VIII is, once again, a Sony phone through and through. It has a personality, it has a loyal target audience, and it has a number of features that are practically extinct elsewhere - a headphone jack, microSD expansion, a toolless SIM tray, a clean Android build, front-facing stereo speakers, USB video output, a dedicated two-stage shutter key and a display that's uninterrupted by a punch hole. That alone will be enough to keep some Xperia fans interested. The problem is that outside of that niche, the Xperia 1 VIII is a hard sell. The display is good, but not class-leading. Battery life is solid, but not exceptional. Charging is slow by current flagship standards. The software is clean, but light on features and the update promise is no longer particularly impressive.

EN→FRThe Xperia 1 VIII is a genuinely good phone, but it's a hard sell at £1,400. You're getting great cameras, incredible speakers, and a handful of features no other flagship bothers with anymore — and that counts for something. But at this price, the slow charging, bare-bones software, and shorter update window are real sticking points that are tough to ignore. If you've been a Sony fan for years and you want a phone that does things differently, this won't disappoint you. But if you're coming from a Samsung or an iPhone and wondering whether the grass is greener — honestly, probably not at this price. Sony still makes a case for itself, just not a strong enough one to pull most people away from what they already know.

EN→FRSony avoided a major redesign of its flagship smartphone for over half a decade, keeping the same look since 2020’s Xperia 1 II. Rather than vertically oriented cameras, Sony is now moving to a raised camera island at the top left of the rear of the new Xperia 1 VIII. The redesign is to accommodate an exciting telephoto camera upgrade, which Sony says is four times more powerful than its last-gen option at 1/1.56-inch, enabling improved low-light shooting. The aperture is f/2.8, and the focal length is 70mm. Alongside the telephoto are two more cameras with specs similar to the last-gen phone, as well as a flash and an emblazoned Sony logo. The main camera is a 48MP shooter with an F/1.9 aperture, while the ultrawide is a 48MP with a 104-degree field of view. The front of the phone has a 12MP selfie camera.

EN→FRUnderneath the sleek new shell, the Xperia 1 VIII doesn’t fully feel like the evolution Sony needs it to be. That new zoom lens might put the rear camera trio on par with mainstream rivals from Google and Samsung, but serious phone photographers have now moved on to Chinese alternatives with even more impressive hardware. Then at the other end of the spectrum, the AI composition tips are too small and subtle for the amateur audience the firm is hoping to attract. It comfortably keeps pace on performance and you won’t find its combination of uninterrupted screen, expandable storage and wired listening options anywhere else. Yet battery life and charging speeds continue to tread water while rivals push forward with long lasting silicon-carbon tech, and the price hasn’t come down at all to make up for it. The Xperia’s creator-first positioning remains, then – but that at least means Sony fans who keep coming back year after year will be very happy here.

Qualcomm Adreno 840: Unité graphique intégrée dans le SoC Qualcomm Snapdragon 8 Elite Gen 5 pour smartphones avec trois tranches à 1,2 GHz chacune. Selon Qualcomm, elle est 23 % plus rapide que celle de la génération précédente (Adreno 830).
Ces cartes devraient être capables de faire tourner tout les jeux d'aujourd'hui, mais la plupart d'entre eux uniquement en détails moyens ou faibles et avec des résolution basses. Les plus vieux jeux ou les jeux moins gourmands restent jouables avec de beaux graphismes.
