El, 16 Nov 2021Sony Xperia 5 is a big disappointment. I've been Sony ... moreMy one I just bought two days ago it's a used one but looks good like new. The problem is sometimes got sound on music sometimes no sound(mostly no sound) after reset the software using PC Xperia Companion got sound at the starting but no sound after a few hours. Only Bluetooth speaker and Bluetooth headset got sound but no sound during Sound recording even with Bluetooth headset ( only music got sound on Bluetooth) I think is audio ic problem?

TA97, 23 Feb 2024is this phone still worth buying in 2024, i found one in a ... moreit was an excellent device but in 2024 even a brand new Xperia 5 isn't worth it .
i loved Xperia 5 but it's showing sign of aging now.
battery last 4 to 6 hours
display sometimes becomes unresponsive for 1 or 3 second,you have to turn off and on and display becomes right again.
Android 11 version was good but the newer version is beautiful.
Xperia 5 Mark 2 (II) allows you to directly use charging while gaming an excellent feature not available in Xperia 5 (i know Xperia 5 II is latest so it will have some new features)
so my opinion it's an excellent device from the past that is not the right choice in today's world.
I'm planning to Upgrading to Xperia 5 III or IV this year,so it's Time to say goodbye to Xperia 5.
thanks

is this phone still worth buying in 2024, i found one in a very good condition for a cheap price but i heard that this Xperia 5 lineup has a screen issue (green and pink lines) i know that this is a common problem in the Xperia 5 II , III and IV and I'm wondering if this issue is also present on this model. are there any other common problems on this model

Hredoy KHan, 07 Feb 2024i want to know about the Screen on time [SOT] in 1 charge c... morekhan sahab
screen on time is around 7 to 8 hours
over night battery drain without usage is 6 to 8% .
screen on time with heavy gaming, 2.5 hours
watching video 7 hours (YouTube)
watching downloaded videos offline (9 hours).
but doing everything you need to charge it 2 times at least per day.
my battery health is at 80% which mean it only charges 80% of original value, check it in About phone (battery life) click on option to check battery health.

Hi,
I was thinking of buying this phone or the Xperia 1.
I saw some used phone. The price is almost the same for both xperia 1 and 5.
Is there any display green line issue?
Please let me know.
Thanks.

Honestly speaking, I'm using this device and there is no issue at all in display segment, especially the display related calibration and colours accuracy is just joyful and there is no issue like Green tint or black crush is found in this device during my usage. Audio quality is also louder with an extra feature of Dirac HD sound where we can customise audio quality according to the choice. Having a smaller box of 3100mah battery is no doubt a smaller portion of life, now a days, as mostly devices are getting package of 5000mah battery but it's fine for a normal user. A support of 18 watt fast charger with P.D 2.0 is also a gift , i'd tried LG v60 P.D 3.0 charger and surprisingly it took less than 1 hour for complete charging but it degrades the battery life very rapidly so I'll not recommend it.
Camera Performance is just wooow , never disappoints me with telephoto lens , the clear accuracy, details and edges detection is very amazing. I only got disappointment in video stabilisation which is not enough to get justification for any flagship device but not bad.
Signal reception and connectivity is also potent so never got disappointment

1- Some say that the fingerprint scanner is bad, in fact this problem can be easily overcome, you can re-register your fingerprint for 3 times by sliding the same finger on the fingerprint reader, in (Settings.. Sécurité.. Fingerprint Manager)
2- It is best to check the real capacity of the battery through the aida64 apk, which you can install from the Google Store. (aida64.. Battery.. Charge Counter) After charging the phone 100% and then compare the result with the real capacity of the battery.
3- It's best when previewing the phone screen.By swiping the light indicator on the highest brightness, then preview any image in dark gray. I hope you don't find a green shade in the middle of the screen, this is a common problem in devices xperia 5.
4- If the battery is low Activating this option will help you complete your day without having to recharge the battery, provided that you do not play heavy games. (Settings.. Battery.. Stamina mode.. [turn on now].. Stamina level.. Battery time preferred).
The battery will be good it will last a whole day with normal use.. The screen in the event of a green shade is a simple problem that will not affect the screen and will only appear in low light at night. The camera is good.
Any other question I'm here
Sorry for taking so long

I tested the Xperia 5 first generation phone on various games that require very strong settings. The results showed that the phone could run various modern games without problems. However, after a few minutes, users may notice that the phone becomes slightly warm and may experience some lag in some games if they are played at the highest settings. The reason for this is that the processor supports a refresh rate of up to 120 frames per second, while the phone is designed to refresh at 60 frames per second. Therefore, the phone may not be able to keep up with the work of the processor, which is the most powerful component in the phone.
This phone has the Snapdragon 855 that Sony has put in this model only until 2022.Models that appeared after Xperia 5 did not have more powerful processors than the Xperia 5

**Hello**
**I would like to give you my personal opinion about this phone.**
**When you hold this phone for the first time, you will notice that it is small in size and takes length. It looks like a chocolate bar, especially if it is black. It is very suitable for single-handed use, for taking pictures, for playing games, and for watching videos. The size of this phone will not bother you when you put it in your pocket. It is unlike other phones that look like tablets with exaggerated sizes.**
**I noticed that many people ask me about the type of phone. It is a real twin of the Samsung Note 20/21/22 series, especially if it is black. At first glance, when you see it, you will understand the secret of its high price. The materials of manufacture, the curves, the aluminum, and the glass, are all standards that contribute to raising the price, as they protect the components of the device.**
**As for the camera, it has excellent quality in all conditions. There are no defects in it, except for 8K recording, which is not available.**
**As for the performance, it is true that it has been 4 years since its production, but it can still open 200 applications in the background and return to them smoothly. It can still run the most powerful games at the highest settings with great efficiency. You will not feel any lag, slowness, or excessive heat.**
**As for the battery, it is around 3000 mAh. It is not suitable for people who play huge games for hours. This phone is designed for browsing email and live media. It is designed for photography and editing. It is suitable for administrative work, daily use, and practicing your life at its best.**
**Average use consumes the battery in about 7 hours a day with continuous use with the screen open.**
**In the case of partial use, such as browsing the internet, calls, and WhatsApp, it can last a full day from 8 am to 10 pm.**
**In case you are a fan of Genshin Impact, Call of Duty, or PUBG at the highest settings, the battery can last up to 3 hours and a few minutes, depending on the lighting, weather, sound level, and network quality.**
**The advantages are:**
* **A stylish design suitable for the coming years.**
* **High-quality materials.**
* **Scratch-resistant glass.**
* **Waterproof and perhaps break-resistant.**
* **A great camera.**
* **A distinctive OLED screen with high resolution.**
* **A stable Android 11 operating system.**
* **Stereo sound.**
* **A battery suitable for completing your day without the need to recharge.**
**The disadvantages are:**
* **The battery is not suitable for heavy gaming.**
**Overall, this is a great phone for people who are looking for a stylish, powerful, and well-made device. It is not suitable for people who play huge games for hours, but it is perfect for everyone else.**
