Reviewers from digitaltrends have found the following***:
The Hasselblad X1D II is a great camera for landscape and fine art photography. It's a beautiful, expertly crafted machine that also happens to be slow and cumbersome. If you don't need 100 megapixels — few among us do — you can't get better image quality.

Pros
  • Fast, responsive autofocus
  • Excellent image quality
  • Fast and responsive touch interface
Cons
  • Autofocus is unreliable in low light

Reviewers from pcmag have found the following***:
New to the X1D II is full-resolution JPG capture. The older sensor reads out slowly, making the electronic shutter less than useful for capturing motion. The battery life is pretty bad, so you'll need to carry a few spares, an external power pack, or both if you're out for a full day.

Pros
  • Gorgeous design
  • Full-resolution JPG capture
  • Excellent image quality
  • Good battery life
Cons
  • Battery life could be better
  • Some performance concerns
