The DXOMARK score for the Xperia 1 II is out and surprise surprise it isn't good- with the Xperia being made equivalent to two-year-old smartphones. There are a few odd things about the review, which show bias and perhaps foul intentions from DXOMARK. Firstly, they have had the device since August and have found time to do reviews for smartphones launched at a later date, yet suspiciously the review for the Xperia 1 II was delayed until late Jan, knowing that the Xperia 1 III will launch in February, this seems like a move to slow down sales. Secondly, the review itself is very short and doesn't go into much detail as to why the score was given. Furthermore, there was no mention of Sony's pro apps or any of the devices other functionalities.
There are a few posts on twitter to raise a voice against DXOMARK's anti-competitive behaviour, one of them being the chain on twitter:
