Sony Xperia 5 IV 5G -puhelin, 128/8 Gt, ecru valkoinen

This is my 10th Sony Xperia phone and my 3rd version of the 5 model. Just love Sony phones, plus the 5 and 10 models aren't massive. Great camera, great battery life, just great phones 😊

Juu edellinen oli XZ3 ja nyt Experia 5IV, taattua Sonyn laatua.

Good All round Phone, fits in phone nicely, sound great, picture is good.

I am having a wonderful experience with the phone.

Pros:

1)The sound quality is marvelous and one of the best that I have heard on a phone. It is very hard to find a front facing speaker in the market. Dynamic vibration is a hit or a miss but when it works, it's one of the best experience.

2)The battery life is fine for day to day use and consistently gives a 8-9hr SOT (screen on time) with 120 Hz display setting on.

3)The phone is narrow which helps it easy to hold compared to my previous phone. The 21:9 aspect ratio is good for watching films.

1. Not having a water drop notch gives a good uninterrupted viewing experience.
   
   
2. The headphone jack is a testament for Sony's commitment to its customers. Every other phone manufacturer has removed the headphone jack and suggested to buy a dongle. Having a headphone jack gave me the option to listen with wired and wireless earphones. Giving customer the choice is what I liked the most about this phone.
   
   
3. SD card slot is another great feature that this phone has. These days when phone manufacturers are making people to use cloud storage, Sony is one of the companies that has been an SD card slot.
   
   
4. The photography pro and videography pro are very good apps to learn more about photography and taking professional grade videos. Before the purchase of this phone I always used general phone camera app available on my previous phone. But now I could take a picture of the scene in the way I intended to make it look like or in a way that makes it look more natural.
   
   

Improvements that could be made:

1. The security updates could be extended for one more year. I don't care about the OS updates. But please try to extend the security updates to 4 or 5 years instead of 3 years.
   
   
2. The basic mode in photography app could be improved. When opening the manual mode, there could be an option called info on the buttons so the customers could learn quicker on what shutter speed or ISO means. This could give general audience an understanding on how to use them much more easier.
   
   
3. Instead of providing a 2.5x telephoto lens, it would have been cool if a 3x telephoto lens is provided.

Definitely one of the best phones I've had. Changed from a pixel 7 and this is much lighter and nicer in the hand. I had a blackberry key2 before that and this is the closest thing to it

I've had the Xperia 5 iv for about 3 weeks now. I'm still finding little things which make Sony phones so enjoyable. Had many Xperia phones in the past, but went Huawei last time out for a change. Very glad to be back on familiar territory

Bought just over a week ago and very impressed so far apart from a few issues with not receiving notifications.

I've always had Sony Xperia phones and can't knock them for ease of use and great quality

I have had Sony Xperia phones for my last four phones and have been pleased with each one I have owned, my recent purchase has surpassed all the others and I am extremely happy

Very happy with my purchase another member of the Sony family.
