Cheaper than Xperia 1 with similar list of features, Colour accurate 21:9 screen, Battery life is much better
Similar issues with video stabilisation, HDR is a bit dull
With an (almost) identical feature list as its bigger brother, it's certainly a smart move on Sony's part to bring the price of its flagship down a peg or two. I might be seeing double, but considering you can get a similar sort of experience as the Xperi...

Awkward fingerprint scanner, Side Sense is temperamental, No case included
With an epic display, ample gaming power and a camera that should please amateur snappers and prospective filmmakers alike, there's a lot more to the sturdy Xperia 5 than slightly botched biometrics. Stuff says. Sony Xperia 5 review A pocketable flag...
Compact, stylish design, Great choice of colors, Snapdragon 855 processor, Attractive screen
High price, Camera has disappointed in the past, Annoying button configuration, Android 9 Pie, not Android 10
Why isn't the Xperia 5 the new compact Sony phone of choice? The price is a problem, especially when previous Sony efforts have not won us over with the camera. Spending this much money on a phone and being disappointed by the camera shouldn't happen, esp...

The Xperia 1 was a great handset, with its 21:9 screen delivering something a bit different to the competition. The Xperia 5 is more of the same, although this time around the screen is a smaller, a more manageable 6.1-inch model. Maintaining the same ran...
