Sony Xperia 5 II disassembled on video, has a graphite sheet to cool the cameras

16 October 2020
Chipsets are not the only thing in a phone that hates heat. The Xperia 5 II looks fairly easy to take apart and put back together again.

Sort by:

I so wish this had the 875 or 775 chipset, if it did I would buy. Both the 875 and 775 chipset are only a few months away, I would rather wait for either.

          Here in Greece it was discounted at 30% for 12 hours in a big chain store, together with all smartphones except Apple. The asking price was 643€ with WF-1000XM3 earphones included in the package. Very good deal.

            unlike sony, who cannot afford to run such checks...

                  Daydream81, 16 Oct 2020I wonder if that's why only the Xperia 5 ii has 4K/120... moreIt will be added as update.

                    All Sony flagships have graphite sheet, maybe this time they put some more than ordinary. Who knows

                      LMAO, that anonymous guy spitting the truth. First foldable phone was the iPhone 6+

                        I wonder if that's why only the Xperia 5 ii has 4K/120FPS and not the Xperia 1ii because this one has the added camera cooling?

                          Iphone 6+ was even the first foldable phone of the market.

                            very poor quality,lot of cutouts in the frame-its very thin also,bending and cracking around the lower part of the camera module is inevitable,and once more a flex cable under the battery with usb port soldered in on the cable itself,i suspect engineers are not up to of level of samsung or apple anyway

                                Anonymous, 16 Oct 2020It is for sale in Japan, Taiwan , HK and Europe. Ppl has ... moreTrue, but in many European Countries Sony is not selling this phone. In fact they have currently a very bad new product deployment policy.

                                  [deleted post]Wrong, rarely a phone generates speculation and interest as much an Xperia phone does, and the joke is on you because now your apps are starting to get banned more frequently, globally heehee

                                    will there be liquid metal, like in PS5

                                      So this guy PBK is back with a smartphone teardown at a time when the phone has barely reached the stores
