SM25, 20 Mar 2021Folks, can you please recommend which film protector or tem... moreOlixar screen protector film, not glass. I have almost everything available in the market in only these one fits perfect. Others are bit narrower than screen. But olixar glass protector reduced the touch sensitivity significally. It's quite hard to find screen protector for this phone.

Owner, 19 Mar 2021I live in UK and purchased a Xperia 5 II (XQ-AS52 from UK) ... moreI have the 72 model as well but after a couple of weeks of honeymoon usage I consistently get between 6 and 7 hours of SOT. Mix use of browsing, playing games, watching videos, receiving and sending messages and calls...
Having upgraded from my 4 years old XZ with about 2 hours of SOT, I would say the battery life here is phenomenal but I don't know what everyone else is getting.

Folks, can you please recommend which film protector or tempered glass should I buy for this device? I would buy it on German Amazon or eBay, or if you know any other store in Germany (Stuttgart) where it can be bought.
Thanks in advance.

After purchase phone(model XQ-AS72) have problem with internet connectivity using mobile network. Chat apps like skype/telegram/whatsapp can't connect to network. At the same time browser and google apps (maps, gmail) worked.
Latest update what phone get at Mar 14 (58.1.A.3.87) fixed this.
Just can't believe that company like Sony didn't test phone during development. And it took Sony six months to fix the problem.

I live in UK and purchased a Xperia 5 II (XQ-AS52 from UK) when it launched. The battery life of that device was excellent but but accidentally broke the display. Now I go another Xperia 5 II (XQ-AS72 from Hong Kong) but the battery life of this phone is not as good as last one. Then I checked battery (after two weeks of use) with accubattery said, 4010mAh (102% Battery health) but in "#*#7378423#*#* Service Menu said, 3903000uAh. One day later it showed, 3908000uAh. Yesterday I did factory reset, now accubattery shows, 3913mAh (98%) battery health and Service Menu shows, 3955000uAh. Strange!!! Should I be worried???
Note: After seeing this I called to service center backed in Hong Kong they said to send the device (at my own cost) to inspect if they will find any issue they will give me replacement and if the problem will not be found I need to pay whole shipping cost. Any advice...? Thanks in advance!

After one week of usage I can say I got what I expected from the phone. Generally I am satisfied. Great design, screen (120hz is really something nice to have), everything works fast and fluid. Camera is a bit of a challenge for me due to I need to get to know the Pro apps a little bit in order to get the maximum from the cameras. Front speakers also great and they make you enjoying multimedia.
Regarding some cons I noticed:
-AOD can't be scheduled to be turned on/off automatically unlike Dark mode
-volumes for ringing and notifications are merged as one, can't be set separately (or perhaps I oversaw something wrongly)
-the phone is generally slippery, so nowhere without a case

Do your self a favour and stick to Chinese phones or a pixel which are designed for selfie's.
It’s not a phone for kids.

Halo worlds out there:) 😊
Xperia 5ii is a phone created to satisfy those looking and appreciate a compact phone factor while packing powerful tools for photography and videography geeks.
I don't understand those who purchased and later complained the small size of it.
I appreciate the size created especially with protection case on it yet feels compact enough. One will not complain after long hours of holding the phone. At least not me.
I put on a Devilcase which looks fantastic and yet it is so compact to hold or put in pocket.
If u fancy about screen size, u may consider Xperia 1ii. But this u will have to sacrifice on the battery life / duration per cycle charge compared to 5ii as both has the same battery size.

It makes for best use of technology, no matter the price point.
Three cameras just for mugshots, is just what people want and need most in life.

Below average selfie camera. No 120Hz refresh rate. Having 3.5mm jack is a good thing.
With a bezel like that Sony Xperia 5 II could have easily implemented a dual selfie camera or even triple selfie camera like ASUS Zenfone 7 Pro.

just updated the phone to latest software.
The camera: im starting like the image processing from this phone, sharp and clean. But at night still lot noise in the pic.
Screen: maybe not sharp as 2k screen. I can see the difference between this phone and pixel 4 xl when watching the movie. Screen is good and nice color. Only if can be brighter.but satisfying.
And started to like this phone. Even samsung S20 i only use for a week. I feel this nicer than s20.

I bought this one finally. Must say glad to be back to Android after iOS for 11 months.
Generally I am satisfied with the phone, I got everything what I expected after reading experiences from the users.
Though I must say I am a bit sad there's no option to schedule AOD unlike Dark mode, or perhaps I can't find it.
Also I would kindly ask for help with this one - where can I turn on/off notifications for applications? So I need the list of all installed applications and then to go for a review on/off.

Like they say don't fix what ain't broken.
Sony are very hard too Root. I had too root back to Android 10.
Even on my Note10, Android 11 sucks. Revert back to 10. It's much better. It gets hot but doesn't throttle, on Android 11 it doesn't even reach 60% consistently on cpu, gpu, but on 10 it was reaching 100% usage , I don't know why people complain about heating as if electronics don't heat up, lmfao.
