Hi, I just bought this phone, my first Sony smartphone.

I don't see the option to transfer apps to the SD card. Is it true that Sony doesn't allow it? I can't believe this.

jpv, 30 Oct 2020Well, it is the most useless function I have ever used on smartphone. Believe me, it is weird.... moreOk, but at LEAST a 240 fps mode should be there.
I don't see it in specs.

Believe me, it is weird.... moreWhatever feat is not there anymore, is sufficiently replaced by that 3.5 mm jack that is there again. Im getting better sound quality with Sonys usual in the box earphones, than with those wireless ones, 200 € worth, that I got as a preorder bonus.

Also, the day before It was a rainy day, and I got reminded why autoHDR auto mode is to be avoided in some photo scenarios. Im glad I have PhotoPros manuals with optional HDR off for those occasions.

I dont find 120 hz at all that beneficial, even in gaming, to sacrifice more batterylife for it.
I am getting 2 day worth 11-12 hr screen on time with usual 60 hz.

Anyways, overall, best 2020 phone IMO.

dooper, 27 Oct 2020NO super slow-motion (960 fps) from a Sony flagship???Well, it is the most useless function I have ever used on smartphone. Believe me, it is weird. Sony removed it from their flagship is a right decision. Btw I'm using XZ2.

Just got mine and it is mind blowing. I had iphone 11 pro last time. The finger print reader and the size of the phone makes it the most comfortable phone to use during this pandemic of course without sacrificing screen real estate. So much happy to be back on Xperia after Xperia X.

About phone. Gestures and 120Hz looks really nice and battery life is impressive. Test done.

I currently have a Xperia L4. I like the size but other than that not much. It seems fine to read kindle books on. I wonder if Xperia 5ii will be suitable for reading ebooks?

It's so fun reading the comments of all those people searching for nitpicks and reasons why they don't want to buy this phone. I have a feeling, that even if the phone was perfect, they wouldn't buy it anyway ;-)

I have it for a week. It was hard to get used to the size of the device after almost 3 years with XZ1C but it seems I got used to it. Great phone, excellent speed, just another happy user.

Anonymous, 26 Oct 2020The only problem is the 21:9 aspect ratio... I thought that too, but now when I have used this phone about a week, I see mostly just benefits on it. Almost all mobile content is in long lists, and with this ratio it is at it's best. In use it looks more like futuristic than awkward.
