The next compact flagship from Sony is here! The Japanese company has been perfecting its Xperia trio for quite a few years now, and the Xperia 5 Mark V is the latest iteration of the small flagship, sitting just beneath the Xperia 1 Mark 5, and way above the budget Xperia 10 Mark V.
Xperia phones have a couple of cool features that you won't find on modern flagships, and one of them is the 3.5mm audio jack.

The phone is noticeably louder and clearer than its predecessor.

They use the same haptic motor, producing short and snappy vibrations but not overly strong ones.Another area left unchanged is the battery and charging. Both the Xperia 5 V and its predecessor feature 5,000mAh batteries and support up to 30W of wired charging speeds. Unsurprisingly, web browsing, video streaming, and gaming results are very similar, as is the real-life performance of both phones.
