It was a great phone, we bought two of them in the family, and both got green lines on the screen after a couple of years.. Planned obsolescence or faulty screens, either way a crap durability for a premium phone / price. Goodbye Xperia

            Atom0558, 20 Jun 2023Is there any green line display issue with the xperia 5 mar... moreYes..green line issue is there

              Hello, has anyone tried LINEAGE OS ANDROID 13 for Xperia 5 II is it good? security updates? etc I still have official sony software but I want to try something new.

                arifgdg, 06 Jan 2023I am having a green stripe in my display since yesterday...... moreBro which varient of the phone are you using ?

                  Is there any green line display issue with the xperia 5 mark 2?. Or is it a rumour? Or a hardware/software issue ?.

                    I am having a green stripe in my display since yesterday... the death of a gorgeous & lovely display after 1.5 years. It shook my heart when I first noticed that, I couldn't believe my eyes! XPERIA 5 II is a great phone... I was using it for long, with 193 apps installed and a big portion of them always running in background but never slowed a single bit, never found sluggish, anywhere, anytime...even far smoother than my previous iPhone 7. Very decent battery life with 120Hz fps, never had any issue before yesterday...my heart's finally broken :(

                      Kara Murat, 04 Dec 2021you've never had a Sony smartphone and it shows becaus... moreOof what a foul mouth you have dude. You dont have to get irritated over someone opinion which clearly objective and called them "poor" and "spit like a pig" is that how your parents raised you ? to be a immoral person ?

                      probably the one who spit like a p** is you. you dont even read the posting rules about "be polite and use common sense"

                      btw, i've been using wireless charging with qi since s6 edge and now daily driven a zfold 2, and i dont feel significance difference of display time each day.

                      i dont get the correlation between wireless charging and battery longevity, they got hot ? no, just warm, but wired charging got hot/warm too. My qi charger maxed at 1amp, and the wired can hit 1.5-2amp easily. I'm more bothered about how amps affect my battery life rather than charging method i use.

                      and lastly magnetic charging = wired charging, their port tend to breaks due to powerful magnet pulling out the phone from the port.

                      im a samsung fanboi? no, i've been daily drive sony phone as well, from Xperia L, Z3 and XZ1, and i still keep the xz1 in my drawer since i really like that phone.

                        Yeah I had the Z1 Compact and Z3 Compact and the magnetic connector was one of the best features, however it was badly designed since it relied purely in adhesive to keep it placed in the frame of the device and when it was use too often, overtime it would eventually get loose. I still have a couple of magnetic accessories, as well as the Sony Car Stereo that used your phone as the main unit display.
                        Right now I use my Xperia 5 II and I do miss that secondary charging option, but it is not a deal breaker.

                          flagshipper, 27 Feb 2021Main facts: 5ii lacks Qi charging, 1ii lacks 120hz. i neve... moreyou've never had a Sony smartphone and it shows because you're a poor guy who just knows how to spit like a pig, the screen is 120 hertz compatible !! and it does not need wireless charging because it damages the longevity of the battery and Sony prefers to favor the wire on this model and that suits us very well and it is the only high-end with jack plug

                            no it's wrong I have no reception problem it's even ke contra or re I capture the 4 g and the 5 G very well

Thought it was other caller but is happening too many times, just no signal or weak signal sometimes annoyingly when that long call is needed to your bank.
