      This is, by far, one of the best phones to own in 2021, and 2022 for that matter. The screen is a superb masterpiece to the point where I'd rather watch a movie on the phone than on my laptop or TV. Battery life is great for this phone, even when gaming at 60fps (in-game), I get 5 to 7 hours of screen on time depending on gaming time. The battery charging time is relatively long and it drops exponentially - You'll charge to 60% in half an hour, 60% to 90% in another half an hour, and the last 10% in about 40 minutes. The camera has been improved. I don't fiddle much with the pro apps because I like the knowledge to utilize them properly but I've had an awesome experience with the stock camera app. Video could be stabilized better, but it's not bad by any means, it's just that the competition will do more in this field. Front facing stereo speakers were a bliss for gaming because I finally do not have to pay attention on how I hold the phone. The SD865 is power efficient and does not overheat in any circumstance, and that's what makes this phone a better buy than the 5iii. I have seen people report on the connectivity issue which I hadn't had personally. The 5G networks on this phone are a hit and miss because a number of bands are missing, but in my personal use that wasn't an issue.

        5G, 21 Jun 2021Yes it still has network problems and it is getting worse. ... moreMost of the time is the network problem or bad weather and the router you use ! One remedy is to off the router and ON again or router and phone OFf and ON again !

            Anthony707hp, 22 Nov 2021Does anyone know why 5g doesn't work in the US on this... moreThe cell modem doesn't support the bands that are available in the United States. It does, however pick up the 5G bands in Europe. So it is but isn't a 5G phone. I have it and LTE-A is still very fast, and stable vs the standard LTE phones.

              Currently utilizing Dual Sim, DSDS..... FTW.
              It gobbles battery a bit, still pretty good.

                Does anyone know why 5g doesn't work in the US on this phone? I don't understand since its 5g capable.

                      captain fokou, 30 Sep 2021Now do the same for Apple, Samsung, huawei, xiaomi, oppo, v... moreI've had several other brands of phones and only one bad Samsung for reception, which I think was the Note 3. I've had several Sony 5ii and they all have weak indoor signals. The latest update has possible helped the reception but the facts remain it's the poorest phone I've owned for reception. Even taken the SIM out and tried it in my mates cheap Chinese phone and it gets faster and more stable speeds compared to a so called premium phone. I wish it was better since it's got a SD slot and headphone jack which is the only reason I got it. Just look at the resale value of this phone that tells you everything, nobody wants them apart from Sony fan boys.

Read other folks comments on recepti... moreSounds like it could be more of a device specific issue as my 5 ii doesn't have these issues. Works great overall. My problem is not the WiFi connectivity, it is my web provider that there are disruptions in the actual service.

                                    Hopefully you find a phone that suits your needs. This device knocks it out of the park for me.
