Reviews for the Sony Xperia 5 II
Like the Xperia 1 II, the Xperia 5 II is a consistent further development of the previous year's models. In our review of the Sony Xperia 5 II, we clarify what else has changed besides the inclusion of 5G hardware and enhanced photo software.

The Sony Xperia 5 II packs in a great screen, an excellent camera, decent battery life and plenty of performance into a phone that's on the expensive side but still worth considering – as long as you can take full advantage of all the features that it brings to the table.

The Sony Xperia 5 II is a smaller, less-expensive version of the Xperia 1 II. It offers most of the powerful features in a more comfortable and pocketable size. It's an ideal choice for media lovers, gamers, and budding photographers and cinematographers, even at its $899 price point.

As mentioned, the Xperia 5 II is technically impressive. Its OLED display and Dolby Dynamic Bass speakers make it an excellent multimedia device. If you like to binge-watch Netflix shows, this could be the phone for you. It also delivers high-quality photos and videos, thanks to its wide range of functions. Finally, it's no slouch when it comes to mobile games too. However, it's a rather pricey phone that few Malaysians are willing to spend on.

It is no secret that Sony has long struggled to get its Xperia branding back on track and based on what I am seeing in the Xperia 5 II, the company is slowly, but surely learning from the mistakes of the last generation. At RM4099, the Japan-based brand clearly wants to give consumers their money’s worth with some of the added features that were lacking in the first Xperia 5. That said, there’s not a whole lot of groundbreaking features with the phone, therefore still making it a slightly tough sell.

If you can live with a slightly smaller, lower-resolution screen, the Xperia 5 II is a great value alternative to the Xperia 1 II. The triple camera provides plenty of shooting options, and both stills and video quality have improved since the Mark 1. Broadly speaking, image quality matches the pricier Xperia 1 II’s, with low noise and nice color the key strengths of the main camera. There are some niggles with dynamic range, detail, and autofocus, but for the most part the Xperia 5 II puts in a competent performance against rivals in a similar price bracket. Add to that the draw of a high-end processor, and the Sony Xperia 5 II starts to look like an attractive option.

The Sony Xperia 5 II is a great smartphone for those looking to get a flagship device but in a compact body. You get flagship-level specifications thanks to the Snapdragon 865 SoC, the battery life is great, colours are vibrant and punchy, 120Hz refresh rate, a headphone jack, and a good camera system with excellent control options.

Sony’s 2019 lineup was a good step in the right direction, but I was more optimistic about what the company was going to bring to market in 2020. The new Sony Xperia 5ii checks all the right boxes, delivering 95% of the Xperia 1ii’s best features in a smaller and cheaper device. The only real issue is that Sony is late to the game. Not many will be willing to pay $950 for a 2020 flagship smartphone that made its debut in December when the competition is gearing up to release their improved 2021 devices starting next week.

The Sony Xperia 5 II is a near-perfect phone. I like this even more than the larger Xperia 1 II despite not having a 4K display or wireless charging. The Xperia 5 II is just such a joy to hold and use thanks in part to its smaller size. I had forgotten just how nice it was to use a smaller phone and one where I didn’t need two hands to operate.

The Sony Xperia 5 II (4,000mAh, 8GB RAM, 256GB internal storage) is currently available at an official retail price of S$1,349 in Black, Blue, and Pink. Each purchase is bundled with a pair of a complimentary WH-910N wireless noise-cancelling headphones (worth S$399), while stocks last. You can pick it up only from Sony's official channels, such as its official Lazada shop, official online Sony Store, or official physical Sony outlets around Singapore.

While I haven’t had time to dive deep into the Sony Xperia 5 II just yet, initial handling seems promising. It might not look it, but it is much smaller than the Xperia 1 II and much smaller than practically every Android smartphone out there right now. Its tall, narrow body makes it so comfortable to hold and you should have no problem at all using it one-handed. It’s actually been a good long while since I’ve used a smaller phone and I have to say, I miss it.

The Sony Xperia 5 II turns in an average performance overall among the devices we’ve put through our Display testing protocol to this point. In general conditions — indoors during the daytime and in the shade outside — it is quite readable, has a suitable level of brightness, and renders colors well, although with a slight tendency to oversaturate the blues. It’s in darkness and in bright outdoor conditions that the device falters. The Xperia 5 II doesn’t manage display in direct sunlight as well as some others we’ve tested, and it’s too dim in the dark, especially with the blue light filter on. In terms of video playback, the overall darkness when playing HDR10 contents is a big impediment to enjoying the show, and that outweighs the generally reactive video playback control and well-managed motion blur. A bright point for the Xperia 5 II is its nimbleness as a gaming device. Aside from some issues with aliasing, it’s fun for playing games.

The Sony Xperia 5 II offers excellent build quality, capable cameras, and a fast processor. But it's missing 5G and wireless charging, two features we expect in a phone that sells for nearly $1,000. If you’re a major Sony fan, or are seriously interested in the camera's cinematography features, the Xperia 5 II might be worth your while. For everyone else, the Samsung Galaxy S20 FE provides similar hardware, along with wireless charging and 5G, for $250 less.

For many people, a smartphone choice is a straight battle between Apple and Samsung. But if you value music and video performance highly, you really should consider these latest Sony phones. While its pricier sibling still edges it for 4K video performance and ultimate sound quality, the more compact and affordable Sony Xperia 5 II remains a terrific choice.

The Sony Xperia 5 II feels tailor-made for photographers with its dogged dedication to provide the user with unprecedented amounts of control not really seen in smartphones, even today. But for all its bells and whistles on the camera side of things, it seems to be lacking a smattering of other features that would make it genuine competition against flagship models of 2020.

There's very little to dislike about the Xperia 5II - aside from its confusing name. Much like the Pixel 4a, Sony has somehow managed to build a budget version that's arguably better than the original and, at £599, you'll actually save money by buying the superior device. Taking it further, there's plenty here that rival smartphones either don't have or don't do as well; the video and photography modes are unparalleled, the battery seems to handle the 120Hz display without sweat and its performance defies its label as a mid-range device. Mark our words - this might well be the smartphone of the year.

Given that this is a powerful but compact handset the Sony Xperia 5 II retains much that's appealing - with a good build, lots of power and a great display. Certainly, it has more appeal then the costly Xperia 1 II, but once again, it faces strong competition - espeically in the camera department.

The Xperia 5 II's 21:9 notchless display and 3.5mm headphone jack mean it instantly stands out from the competition, but other phones around this price point offer more value for money for most people.

While I have really enjoyed using this phone, I don’t think there’s a huge group of people that should go out and buy this phone for $949. It’s a great phone, and if you have the means and don’t mind that sort of upfront cost, have at it. Most people can’t, which is why Sony doesn’t sell a ton of phones here. If this phone was launched on a carrier, I’d have no problem recommending it alongside a Samsung device, but since it’s purely unlocked and the whole update situation is sort of an unknown variable right now, I have to lean towards the “no” side of things.

The Sony Xperia 5 II further refines Sony’s idea of a compact flagship device. It offers all the bells and whistles of its bigger sibling - the ultra-premium Xperia 1 II, and even manages to add some cherries on top. Like the 120Hz display refresh rate that is all the hype in mobile nowadays.

That said, the Xperia 5 II is still the best pick for Sony fans right now and it’s a very promising sign for next year’s iterations. Patching up the camera app(s) and simplifying some of its software idiosyncrasies are easily addressable.

Sony’s Xperia 5 II feels like a very capable tool, but it’s expensive and sometimes makes you work to get the most out of it. That makes it the right tool for plenty of jobs, but not necessarily the right tool for a smartphone’s job.

The Xperia 5 II is a great, small-form-factor handset that will be more than good enough for most buyers. The only downside is that it feels a little expensive when compared to its closest Samsung and OnePlus rivals which now have more affordable options.

In a landscape with a single obvious rival, the Xperia 5 II is still going to have a hard time. We're convinced it's got a very capable camera system, battery life that you wouldn't expect from such a pocketable handset, a lovely display, and an almost complete set of nice-to-haves.

There are more affordable alternatives, sure, but few can match the Xperia 5 II as a whole package. If you were considering a OnePlus 8 Pro or Samsung Galaxy S20 5G, you should definitely at least try one of these before hitting that buy button.

The real only caveat of the device is its pricing: at $949 or €899, it’s still a bit pricy compared to other flagships in 2020, especially this late into the generational cycle. In Europe, the Xperia 5 II will be available in October, while the US again gets it quite late with availability only starting December 4th – which is extremely late and at that point you’d be better off waiting for the 2021 spring refreshes from the competition.

只有较少的手机有很大的屏幕。
大尺寸可以让屏幕有更高的分辨率。因而例如字体等的细节将会更丰富。不过另一方面,小屏幕的功耗会较低,而设备也会更轻盈小巧,售价更低。
