Sony’s phone designs have always been unique, all the way back to the feature phones of yesteryear. The Xperia 1 II continues this trend. The OLED display measures 3840 x 1644 pixels. It has a standard 60Hz refresh rate, a disappointment on a phone of this class. But that’s a trade-off Sony had to make to use a 4K display in this thing. I’m fine with it. But if you’re a high-refresh die-hard, you’ll have to look elsewhere.
Possessing a fresh design, large screen, 4K display and all other fantastic things, Sony Xperia 1 II is definitely the most ideal devices for entertainment, such as playing games, listening to music and watching films. Let’s check what video formats are compatible with Xperia 1 II.

Best Tool to Transfer Movies from iTunes to Xperia 1 II
Apparently, the fact that Xperia 1 II support almost all the commonly used video formats makes it convenient to enjoy hot movies with the devices on the go. But something inconvenient or even frustrated will eventually appear when you trying to watch movies downloaded from iTunes Store on Xperia 1 II. Due to Apple’s FairPlay DRM protection, movies, TV shows, music videos and iTunes extras are saved in locked M4V format which is limited to be played on Apple’s devices only. That is to say, you can’t directly play any iTunes movies and TV series, rented or purchased, on Xperia 1 II and any other non-iOS devices or players unless you crack the DRM protection firstly with some professional iTunes DRM removal tools, such as M4VGO.
With the help of this smart iTunes DRM removal software, you are able to easily remove DRM lock from iTunes M4V movies and convert the protected video files to non-DRM MP4 format supported by Xperia 1 II. You don’t need to worry about the output video quality since it would be 100% the same as the original ones with subtitles and audio tracks preserved.
It’s available in two versions – M4VGO for Windows and M4VGO for Mac. You can download the proper version according to your system requirements for free before using it to transferring iTunes M4V movies to your Xperia 1 II for playback.
