Sony took the stage at IFA 2019 and introduced its latest smartphone called Xperia 5 – yes, five. It comes with a 6.1” OLED panel with a tall CinemaWide screen, effectively arriving as the compact sibling of the Xperia 1 flagship.
The Xperia 5 comes with Snapdragon 855, but sadly, the Five in the name has nothing to do with 5G – Sony coupled the chipset with the regular X24 LTE modem.
The new phone borrowed the trio of cameras from the Xperia 1 (12 MP regular + 12 MP ultra-wide-angle + 12 MP telephoto), but now the setup is placed in the upper left corner.
