Sony Cyber-shot RX100 IV
The Sony Cyber-shot RX100 IV (M4) is less of an clear upgraade over its predecessor the RX100 III (M3) than a forked alternative; for a variety of reasons, I'd classify it as an advanced compact for video enthusiasts rather than a straight-up advanced compact, at least until the price drops a bit.
Pros:
- Great video features to supplement its 4K capabilities distinguish the Sony Cyber-shot RX100 IV from the rest of the advanced-compact pack
- It also retains the nice design perks, like a popup electronic viewfinder, of the earlier RX100 models
Cons:
- Like its predecessor
- the autofocus system could be more consistent and the battery life has gotten even worse

Sony's RX100 IV falls short in the age of the excellent smartphone camera
Every year, point-and-shoot cameras march closer towards their extinction as smartphones continue to eat their lunch. The only way for a point-and-shoot to stand out and earn your hard-earned money is to come armed to the teeth with high-tech features your phone doesn't have.

Sony Cyber-shot DSC-RX100 IV review
Back in 2012 Sony redefined expectations for small cameras by fitting a large, high resolution 20.1-million-pixel 1-in sensor into the pocket-sized RX100. Every year since then, it has taken its advanced point-and-shoot compact and improved it for the better.

- + Advanced video capabilities including 4K and slow motion recording
- + 16fps continuous shooting
- + Electronic shutter (allowing shutter speeds of up to 1/32000sec to be used
- + Built-in Wi-Fi & NFC connectivity
- + USB charging
Cons:
- Reduced battery life (280 shots
- No touchscreen functionality
- No rubberised handgrip
- Small buttons

Goondu review: Sony Cyber-shot RX100 IV
The most significant changes are the slow motion video feature and the high speed shutter speed of 1/30,000, along with a new auto-focusing system. Sony has kept the compact size and who can fault it for keeping a winning formula

Review: Sony's RX100 IV is the Best Compact Camera Money Can Buy
Simply put, the Sony RX100 IV is the best pocket camera money can buy today. Of course, it takes a lot of money to buy this camera, which is probably the only criticism that I have for the RX100 IV. At $950 retail, the potential audience is somewhat limited by the size of one's wallet.
