Just got this phone. It looks very nice, unique, feels good in the hand. Also I have Galaxy Note10+ and Google Pixel 4. Only one must stay. Regarding the camera, Pixel 4 makes better shots to my opinion. Xperia 5 is somewhere in between two others. Still deciding what to keep because all these phones aren't perfect.
kevinmcmurtrie, 05 Dec 2019I've never heard Bluetooth sound good. I can tolerate it in a moving car but not for headphon... moreWireless Bluetooth buds can sound great. Just try Anker Soundcore Liberty Air 2 Wireless Earbuds or even Samsung Galaxy Buds. You might be surprised.
All of the above features are fabulous except battery , battery should be around 4000- 5000.
When will this be available in South Africa????

1. No wireless charging and only 18W fast charging, the battery... moreJeez, you people are always whinging and whining. How many premium phones have a headphone jack? 18W fast charging is plentiful and is less likely to harm your battery life.
No one is forcing anyone to buy the phone, make your choice and be happy instead if whining and crying like a little "baitch"

I can tolerate it in a moving car but not for headphones and home listening. Even in a car it's a miracle if there aren't periodic drop-outs that drive me mad.
I've also given up on 256Kbps AAC or 320Kbps MP3 for music. Maybe 1 in 10 songs will have severe artifacts, especially if there's spatial imaging effects on distorted synths. A microSD card full of FLAC music and a headphone jack is the way to go. (I'd also be fine with a second USB-C jack that could be dedicated to headphones)
Can this model perform WiFi calling trough network settings or only through apps such as Skype and whatsapp?
Anonymous, 12 Oct 2019No. It doesntIf you're using bluetooth headphones (aptx, Ldac etc.) Sony will give you best quality sound quality experience.
Truly amazing and no going back when you experience and enjoy that.
And Sony has done that long before others, when aptx was best codec many years ago, many flagships didn't offer that, only Sony and that was then one of the criteria for me.
Now it's even better with bluetooth Ldac, truly Hi-fi quality.. Well it's Sony after all, you know that history, right?
Call me fanboy... Damn, I am!

Best regards
Happy Xperia 1 owner.
Ps. So highly likely Xperia 5 will be like same.
Anonymous, 10 Nov 2019nexus 6p had hdr+I'm aware of that, though I don't remember if those devices were from the same year. 6P's HDR+ was already decent as long as DNG output was used. The version of Gcam compatible with my phone output the best results when the 6P algorithm was used, not that of subsequent models, interestingly.
This is the first ever Sony "21st gen" smartphone I loved on all aspects.
Keep it up the notch, Sony.
I am looking for really compact device. Something like 110x60. No one offer a good compact smartphone or even a not-bad compact one.
