It's not just white, it's also pictures with a lot of grey areas. I would love it but the screen is so bad that in the end is way worse than the cheapest phone out there. I don't know whether to wait for the mk6 or try again. But buying and returning is a big hassle.

Really pathetic that Sony has to be named in the same sentence as Apple when it comes to shitty policies, bad support and flat out money grabbing schemes.

It's true, have the same problem with mine BUT seems not all 5 V's have the banding/rainbow problem. I read a couple of reviews that don't mention it and few on Reddit said theirs doesn't have it

I bought one of these and returned it after a few days. I wanted to love it, but the screen had terrible colour banding which was especially noticeable on white — waves of blue and pink rainbow effect even when looking directly at it, and worse when the phone was even on a slight angle. I don't understand why Sony put such a sub-par screen in this phone, and I've only seen one review mention it. Other comments on reddit indicate I'm not the only one though. It's frustrating, this ticks all the boxes for me but I couldn't put up with such a cheap screen.

Anonymous, 13 Oct 2023Is it slippery without a case????Think so but not as bad as the mk2 or mk3 cos of slight texturing on the rear, most phones slide these days, as its smaller also less surface area for it to gain momentum is what it is.

smarch, 12 Oct 2023Anyone with this phone, would you recommend buying it.
Des... moreWell i was searching for Xperia for very long time was chasing this series since XZ2 Compact i wanted small compact phone , i finally got 5V two days ago i would say i am not super excited like i had felt with my Huawei P9 and Lg G7 purchase , Please check the phone personally before giving it thought of purchasing , Its typical old school design box, thicker and heavier (Not as heavy as Iphone) , in my two days of usage so far i feel the UI is not fully polished , When i try to exit any app with two quick back press the app leaves shadow type effect for 1 second and then disappear , I never faced this on my Lg G7 which is running on Android 10 only .
Can someone here throw me some idea why its happening like that screen frozen moment ??

Design seems classic and features like SD card support is amazing.

From periscope telephoto camera to missing telephoto camera. The story of Mark 5 as a decent alternative to Mark 1 ends here.
