Is the display bright enough for viewing under sunlight?

So that means either you got missinformed or you're making up a story. Your sources gave you info about hundreds of these returned because they have a weak signal? Name your sources please. If by your sources means reddit posts then you can stop trying to bash this device, as negative reddit comments about this phone are usually trollers. I'm not saying this phone is perfect but you guys are trying to sell a story that this phone sucks in any possible way. I just don't buy it sorry. But hey, maybe you convince someone that this phone really suck. Not me pal, not me. Have a nice day.

          Updated to A11 a few weeks ago. My impressions:

          1.) battery life seems to be about the same. No better, no worse.

          2.) Although the phone is just as fast as before, it FEELS slower because somehow the animations in the UI are slower. Not sure if this was a Sony or Android change, but opening apps, window transitions felt so slow. I went into developer mode and turned all animations to 0.5, and now the phone feels lightning fast again. I didn't need to do this on A10.

          3.) I can't say for sure, but Sony may have updated the stock camera app slightly. Before the update, shooting a video against the sun would cause massive exposure changes to compensate for the brightness, so the terrain would appear way too dark. There are many videos on youtube showing this behavior. Last weekend I shot a few videos directly against the sun, and low and behold, exposure was metered properly and both the sun/sky and terrain were exposed for properly with nothing blown out or darkened.

            [deleted post]I think something is wrong. Mine is also from HK and the battery life has been amazing. I can easily get 2 days of moderate usage out of it, ~ 7-8 hours of screen on time total.

                [deleted post]Bro, u should purchased the XQ-AS52 from the Hong Kong retailer to be used in UK. XQ-AS72 meant for Asia outside of Japan. All phones are Region specific. I purchased from Hong Kong retailer via Ebay as well and use it in Malaysia without issue. As I requested XQ-AS72 which is matching local Sony model in Malaysia. I saved RM1400 compare local price for now.... But come battery replacement or part replacement.... We will see... 😂

                  [deleted post]You can go Wikipedia search for Xperia 5ii. There got explanation on different region with different models. Each region with different bandwidth. Thus you are actually using Asia model for UK, it caused battery drainage by bandwidth issue

                      Mine device recently shows "Your device is corrupted". So I have bootloop and bricked phone. After 5 months after purchase. No more Sony.

                        flagshipper, 26 Feb 2021why model 1 exists. Add wireless charging to this one and y... moreEven if I had the wireless charge coil, I wouldnt use it. It is slow, and damages battery by heat accumulation.

                        BatteryCare is no joke, rather ingenious, prevents battery wearoff damage, and prolongs the batterylife significantly in longterm.

                        Anyways, one has an option to turn it off, so charging time drops to less than an hour. Or best leave it at auto, so chargetime is less than an hour if charged during the day, and longer but protective if charged overnight while asleep.

                        One of the main reason I stick with Sony is their batterycare tech. Only Sony, and later LG, cared to implement it.

                          why model 1 exists. Add wireless charging to this one and you've got a nice flagship.
                          charging should be improved. 2 hours for a full charge is a joke.

The cpu behaviour and idol's at less governors it did now on 11 it did on 10. You gained extra 3 hours off battery by compensating justify the speed Ram and torque power .
                              I tried the 11, didn't like , rooted back to Android 10.

                                Tann Hauser, 19 Feb 2021I can confirm that. Updated yesterday to A11. No troubles... moreUpdate:
                                After A11 update, Im breaking personal records here folks...
                                Same usage pattern, a 2 days worth of battery on a single charge with over 13 hrs of screen on time (on A10, I got 2 days and over 10 hrs of SoT). Thats about 30% increase in batterylife for me.

                                So praise and kudos to Sony for this update, it seems to only have improved the phone for me.

                                So I guess, if there are indeed any problems with peoples A11 updates, it seems not be any Sony fault, rather some app or your internet provider bloat.

                                  Hanif Fikri, 20 Feb 2021Hmm yours seems worst than mine. My Exynos N10+ drains 1.5-... moreI guess it's really an exynos problem and nothing we can do to improve battery endurance w/c is sad. I tried everything as well. Thanks man

                                    Eldamri, 19 Feb 2021Do you have the Snapdragon or Exynos? I have a Note 10 exyn... moreHmm yours seems worst than mine. My Exynos N10+ drains 1.5-2%/hrs(AOD off). Nothing we can do about it. I tried pretty much everything like removing unnecessary apps(via adb method), bloatwares, putting unused apps to deep sleep, etc but no improvemnt whatsoever on standby drain..

                                      GoToSchool, 19 Feb 2021I updated to Android 11 and no complaints except android 11... moreI can confirm that. Updated yesterday to A11.
                                      No troubles whatsoever. All working excellent.
                                      Batterylife seems to be maybe even better for me now.

                                      Only complaint I have is....I couldnt care less for A11 supposed added changes. Might as well have not updated to it.
                                      Seems we have come to a point where Android updates lost meaning, and dont do a quack to enhance user experiences.

                                        Hanif Fikri, 19 Feb 2021Bought note 10 plus and regret it. I should have go for thi... moreDo you have the Snapdragon or Exynos? I have a Note 10 exynos and battery drain is awful. My XZ3 drains 2 to 3% battery overnight (8hrs or more) while my note 10 is 3% every hour.

                                        Sony is no longer available in my country so i opted for samsung. I'd like to try X5II to play with manual camera settings.
