I have been using the Sony Xperia 5 V for about 10 days now. When I turned on the device, I was immediately struck by the beautiful screen and the clear sound. Unexpected, but when I thought about it; neither.
After having previous Sony mobile phones, such as the Arc and Xperia, Sony proves to be a unique brand in the Android market. With Sony devices I always have to get used to the fact that the 'back' button is on the left of the menu!
The Xperia 5 V feels exactly like a Sony device to me: a nice rectangular block. Robust, strong and solid. Much more of a metal feeling than you often get with other brands.
The screen is very elongated and the bezels are small, also at the top and bottom. This makes the entire front appear to be filled by 1 screen. I immediately installed and tested some games. The Game Improvement program ensures that the experience is optimal and that you are not disturbed. The graphics looked perfect; everything ran smoothly and the sound is great!
After gaming I tested the sound with some music. Additional options with Dolby and 360 Reality Audio (via the 3.5 jack headphones) make the phone no less than a mobile speaker. Even with the Xperia 5 IV you can already notice a big difference. So enjoy!
The cameras work well and provide nice, sharp photos. The standard photo app works well and in night mode you get beautiful, sharp photos with realistic colors. With the portrait mode (Bokeh effect) you can take beautiful photos and adjust how far you want the background to disappear.
Finally put in a SIM card and an SD card. The latter is not really necessary, because the phone already has 128GB on its own. This phone does just fine for calling, texting and other things that are actually logical.
It is not yet easy to find a cover/case for the phone. Too bad this wasn't included: A silicone protector would have been nice, Sony!

Received my Sony Xperia 5V smartphone on Wednesday. How happy I am with it. Takes super sharp photos. Battery lasts a long time. Beautiful design, feels good in the hand, a really nice and fast phone. Exceeds my expectations. Recommended.

I bought this phone because of the Sony video and photography capabilities. Shoot yourself with Sony cameras. That said, the Sony Film Pro app is good but has quite a few flaws if you are going to use the self camera. In addition, you cannot use many settings for video on the selfie camera. Unfortunately, it makes the phone a bit half-finished. What I find much worse is that certain apps on Android do not work properly on the phone. In addition, the fingerprint scanner is not great either. It's a shame that Sony doesn't provide enough updates and fixes for this. Unfortunately, that is a phone with potential, but I find it a disappointment
