After 2 years of using the top-of-the-line Sony Xperia 5 II, I went for the Sony Xperia 5 III, and I think the upgrade is well worth it. The battery lasts well, even when I use 5G, which was disappointing in the Xperia 5 II. I just don't really notice much difference in internet speed because of the WiFi 6, but that could be due to my modem The screen of the Xperia 5 III is lovely and the selfie camera sits nicely outside the picture so that Netflix comes into its own, the 120 Hz refresh rate also comes into its own here, while scrolling on the internet and during games and of course the colors are beautiful due to the HDR OLED.
The sound through the Dolby Atmos and 360 reality audio is really wonderful and in my opinion a lot better than my current Xperia 5 II. The rear cameras are a bit disappointing to me because they have trouble in slightly dark situations during photos and videos, well I must mention here that there are many options in the photo app that I may overlook because I mainly use the standard automatic settings function use.
As a bonus, the Xperia 5 III has IP65/68, wow.

The Sony Xperia 5 III is a great phone. This phone is compact and you often don't see that with flagships anymore. It's also a bit narrower than other phones, you may like that or not. The Sony Xperia 5 III has a 6.1-inch HDR OLED 120 screen. With this screen you can watch movies and series with fine details, the aspect ratio is 21:9, so you can watch without black edges. Sony Xperia 5 III has 3 cameras, a 12MP main camera, a 12MP ultra wide angle camera and a telephoto camera that can provide up to 4.4x optical zoom. With these cameras you can take razor sharp pictures and you can also use different modes if you know more about photography. With Snapdragon 888 you can play games with the best settings. Combined with a 120 Hz image acceleration, this is an ideal choice for gamers. Sony Xperia 5 III has Wi-Fi, 6 and 5G support so you can browse and stream without any problems. The battery life is long enough for a whole day, it can be charged with 30W.
