  • The Practical Android Flagship Tool
Color: Black Style: Phone only
This is the review for the average user- not for professional photographers and videographers. While this phone is marketed toward content creators, there is so much more to the Xperia 5 IV! This is my first Sony phone. I'm coming from an Xperia 5 II. The 21:9 aspect ratio is the first thing you notice about the phone. It looks narrow, because compared to other phones, it is. While there may be some apps not formatted exactly for it, it has a couple of unique benefits: 1. The screen is taller, which allows you to fit more on the screen as you scroll through your social media apps or a news article. 2. The average person can hold this phone securely and type with one hand. Taking a selfie with one hand without feeling like you're going to drop the phone is possible, too! The Xperia 5 IV runs very close to stock Android. Very little in the name of bloatware: just the standard Google apps and several custom apps. As for custom Sony-specific apps, there's a game enhancer app and Sony's creator apps. Photo Pro, Video Pro and Cinema Pro. New for this generation of Xperias is the Music Pro app, which allows you to record and edit audio, as well as use AI to clean up the files (free trial for the AI processing and then a modest subscription fee to continue). Cinema Pro is an app most people won't use. Video Pro is a simpler version and for those who want to tinker a bit with their videos, it's an excellent app. Photo Pro is the camera app and includes a basic mode, as well as manual modes. It is important to note that the Xperia 5 IV does very little software processing of photos. The photos are very natural and look excellent in most daylight scenarios. It is weaker in low light, but some may not be satisfied with the artificial saturation so common in today's phones. The Sony Xperia 5 IV has dual front-facing speakers and excellent sound. While I personally tend not to turn it on, the phone has a dynamic vibration mode, which uses the phone's haptic vibration motor to simulate bass when listening to audio or video. It Also has Sony 360 Reality Audio Upmix, DSEE Ultimate and Dolby Atmos sound enhancements (I have DSEE Ultimate and Dolby Atmos turned on and they do make a difference). For those looking for a phone with no notch, the Xperia 5 IV has no notches, but thin bezels at the top and bottom of the screen. At the top right hand corner of hte phone, there is also a notification LED. On the right side of the phone is the volume rocker, followed by the power button/fingerprint reader and a camera shutter button toward the bottom on the right. At the bottom, there is a dual SIM/SD card slot that is removable with just your fingernail, while the phone remains IP65/68 waterproof/dustproof. In addition, wireless charging has come to the Xperia 5 IV for the first time. Even better, there's still 3.5mm headphone jack! The phone has a 5000 mAh battery, which will give you 1-2 days of battery life- even at 120hz refresh rate. The phone is extraordinarily bright and I rarely keep it at maximum brightness. I just don't need to and that's a first for me. While this phone does have a tendency to heat up, thermal management has improved. However, the warnings do get tiresome at times. Because it is a lower volume phone, peripheral options such as cases are less plentiful (I did find one I liked from Spigen, though) and there aren't many places that will accept it as a trade-in or for sale. Regardless, I couldn't be happier with the device. The Sony Xperia 5 IV is a productivity workhorse and great for content consumption. Whether you're reading, typing, watching video, listening to music or editing, this phone won't disappoint. If you're willing to swallow the price, it's a flagship to be proud of. 5 stars! ... show more

  • The Sony Xperia 5 IV: A Disappointing and Shameful Product
Color: Black Style: Phone only
The Sony Xperia 5 IV is an utter disappointment and a shameful product. Sony engineers, coders, designers, and executives should take this review to heart. This phone is a disaster of poor coding and a horrible execution of a noble vision. As of right now, this phone stands as the last flagship with both expandable storage and a headphone jack, and it should stand tall with pride, but instead it falls on its face immediately as the first units are delivered. This phone cannot "phone" properly. It cannot play music while typing a text message. It cannot open a picture message while in a phone call. It is incapable of handling Android Auto. All of these are things that a 2022 flagship Android is more than capable of, especially with the flagship chipset. If you buy this phone and expect to have a halfway decent experience, return it because it will not grant you that. This is my second Xperia 5 IV due to these issues, and nothing has changed. It is already on Android 13 (64.1.A.0.857), the latest for the USA region, and there has been no change since launch. Some say it's RAM management killing background applications, but regardless, it's a problem that is impossible to fix on the customer side. I can't trust this phone with anything, not with my life using Android Auto, not with my apps and files knowing that if the OS decides to terminate them, I'll lose everything. Even something as simple as typing gets impeded by this, when typing a text message and listening to music, the OS will force close both the music player AND Gboard while the user is typing. This causes a half second of no on-screen keyboard. I've often returned to apps expecting my last action to have been saved or processed, only to find that the phone decided it wasn't important enough and lost time and energy. Do not expect to use this phone for anything other than answering phone calls, and even then it is incapable of doing that right. I've often been told that I cannot be heard, on both of the Xperia 5 IVs, changing hands, position, and speaker phone. This phone is not capable of VoWiFi calling (WiFi calling) with T-MOBILE USA. It has frequent loss of 5G connectivity, likely from the OS force closing the part of the operating system that handles that, or some other issue to add to the list. When the user gets notifications, you'll often see two notification trays, overlapped on top of each other like a word document that has gone awry. The cameras overheat scarily fast, irrationally fast, so fast that every attempt I've had to play with them has become a waste of time. Every time the phone decides to kill background apps, it has visible stuttering and pauses while using the camera. I can't see how anyone at Sony is proud of this phone, and I feel bad for the Sony representatives who are forced to deal with angry customers this holiday season. It's like not a single person turned on the phone and used it for longer than a minute. I do not believe any of the engineers who worked on this phone actually used it. It's a shameful device and it puts Sony and Xperia further into the ground. If you want a phone that looks pretty but accomplishes nothing at all, the Xperia 5 IV is the phone for you. ... show more

  • Such a good phone
Color: Black Style: Phone only
Been using this phone for a few weeks and it os the best phone I have used in a long time. Moved up from Xperia 5 because of networks dropping 3G support (my phone connection was never the same). The camera is more than enough for the average user and has great features for pro user. I love the basic mode in the camera app for quick photos. Connections to wifi, data, and bluetooth are strong and stable. I had a few issues with phone calls right out of the box but that was fixed with updating. 120hz refresh on the screen is so satisfying. 60hz is good enough though. The superiority over other phones comes with the headphone jack and expandable sd card slot - thank you sony for keeping these features!!! Dual front facing speakers are excellent quality and just make sense. Proximity sensor seems to have improved in my personal use from older sony phones, as well as fingerprint sensor (always register the same finger more than once). Form factor is comfortable and not straining on the hands My only issue with sony phones is not a big deal but its more something i miss - the proprietary sony apps. Sony had great apps in older models for messaging, phone, and album. Unfortunately the corresponding google apps come preinstalled. You could always install other options from an app store. But most of all i miss the old xperia keyboard. It was the best keyboard ive ever used on any phone and i hate that sony dropped support for it. The keys were the perfect size, it was responsive and settings were flexible. The phone does get a little warm at times but nothing out of the ordinary from other phones. My personal opinions does not take away from how great this phone is and how much better it is than anything else on the market. There are a ton of other features that make this phone so fun to use but this review would be pages long. I really do not regret this purchase. ... show more

  • The absolute worst phone, except for all the others ;)
Color: Black Style: Phone only
This is a very nice phone. Versatility (I travel a lot and use my phone in a number of different ways) - Headphone port (insert every reason why having a standard headphone port is still a good thing) - SD card slot, great for storing files and using apps geared for offline usage for when I'm out of cell range - HDMI through usb-c so you can still output to displays that don't have any form of Miracast or Chromecast Games: - Uses a high end Qualcomm processor so the GPU is solid. - The phone has a "shutter" button conveniently placed for use as a shoulder button in FPSs and Emulated games (and the power button is below the volume keys, so VOL + can be a shoulder button too if you want to reach) - This emulates gamecube way better than my last phone (most games I checked so far have been nice and smooth) So I'm very happy with how everything's functioning. A few issues: - I have one pair of headphones which don't work when plugged directly into the phone (but will work with other phones/PCs), not a huge issue since most phones don't work with any wired headphones, but if you encounter it, you're not alone. My troublesome headphones were made for iPhone... could have been an issue. - Newer Android will come with it's own issues (if you want to make the most of your SD card, you'll probably have to follow a tutorial in using ADB for the occasional app. Ever since Android 11 there's been some bad decisions in this area) - Potential for the dreaded bright green line. Xperia 5s with their Samsung screen (unlike the 1s) have had this for the last couple models. And this one has it too. After roughly 2.5 years I got one. (Was working fine, set it on my bed, then when I picked it up again, there it was). We'll see how the replacement goes. I don't normally care much about features tacked onto vanilla Android, but their windowed app feature has been appreciated. Really, this has just been a nice phone. Mostly, none of the hardware or software feels like it was designed to take any shortcuts to be released. It feels solid. I would likely buy this phone again, even with the issues. But the green line on the screen does make me consider the 1 for longevity (but they're just so big 😄) ... show more

  • Unreal battery life, and better than Pixel 7 and S23 in most ways
Color: Black Style: Phone only
It's a small, skinny, light, one handed phone. It's so light that it feels cheaper than it is, given the glass and aluminum body. The back is a smooth, frosted glass similar to the new Samsung s23. Because of it's size it feels better with a case on it, so you're not gonna break it without a case. The size is optimized for one handed use better than any other phone. Expanded storage beats the Pixel or s23 I bought at the same time to see which I liked better. You can have 2tb for all the 4k video you want. It has the best screen in it's class with X1 Sony tv tech. But, because it's narrower than most phones the apps are smaller on the home screen, which annoyed me. S23 has better proportions for me. 120hz display is very fast. If you have a Sony tv like I do, you'll know what I mean. Has 2 front facing, really loud speakers, so you can hold it on its side without covering the bottom speaker like every other phone. All phones should have front speakers. Compared to the Pixel 7 I compared it with, it's just better in every way. Speakers on s23 are comparable, but again the bottom firing speaker is annoying when holding them phone horizontally. Having such a small phone with a 500 milliamp battery means going to bed with 50% charge after all day use. You'll never need a charge before bed. The battery gets better after a week as the battery program adjusts to your habits. To get better battery life you have to buy the s23 ultra or iphone 14 pro -both hundreds more money. Camera. The Pixel 7 is supposed to have the best camera, but I couldn't tell a difference with most use cases. I don't take a lot of pics, tho. But, I compared them taking the same pics at the same time in different lighting, and they were the same to my eyes. The difference comes down to the Pixel doing more things automatically to different effects, while the Xperia allows you to manually control exactly what the photo looks like. But, for a typical guy, it's a wash for me. 3.5mm ear phone jack. This was big for me, as I'm an audiophile with expensive wired headphones, IEMs. But, unlike the LG phones the phone jack on the Xperia isn't special. It's much better than Bluetooth, but I still use my LG as a portable music player. It's main benefit is streaming and editing video, which I don't do. For gamers and streamers, the Xperia is made for you. It's optimized for those activities. I've only tried the video game features which are nice like the ability to route power directly from a plug to not heat up the battery. But, if you're a heavy gamer it's probably too small for you. So, the main difference I noticed between the Sony and Pixel was that Sony focused on hardware, and Google on software. The Google does more, but it does it badly. The Sony is closer to stock Android (minus pixel only features), but does everything well. Example: the Pixel has a feature where you can just say "stop" to stop an alarm, but the microphone is so cheap you have to pick it up an say stop loudly close to the phone, making it a pointless feature. Pixel also has a call screening feature that's literally just the phone transcribing what the robot menu system is saying in real time. The only difference is you can see what it's saying, as well as hear it. Great for deaf people, pointless gimmick for everyone else. Every new "pixel only" feature is like that, a gimmick, while the needed day to day stuff sucks more. It's a cheaper phone and it shows. As for the new s23, it matches the quality of the Xperia as it should. But given the speakers, expandable storage, ear jack, and battery life I prefer the Xperia. I just wish it was a little wider like the s23 which I think is a better size. ... show more

  • Sony Xperia 5 IV: Checks almost all Boxes
Color: Black Style: Phone only
This phone offers a great all-around package in such a small and narrow form factor. Pros: -Great screen -Excellent Cameras -Amazing speakers Cons: -Thermals -Cost Pros Screen: The screen is great. Very sharp and very smooth animations with 120 hz enabled. Screen will drop to 60 hz if phone overheats though. Cameras: Despite what many YouTubers say about how "bad" the Xperia's Basic/Auto mode shots are, I found them all excellent. I could only see where they're coming from if you're talking about low-light shots and you have a thing for turning dark into day. I personally prefer my night-time shots to look like night. Speakers: The speakers, although not as loud as an S23 Ultra's, do provide clarity and stereo surround sound as they're front firing. Cons Cost: I do believe an asking price of $1000 for this phone is too much, but I also believe $1300 for an S23 Ultra is also too much. ** Thermals (My biggest complaint) ** If you're worried about thermals with this phone, you probably should be. Even with the latest updates. Using 120 hz, my screen was always at least warm. When shooting photos in 85°F Texas weather, my screen would default back to the 60 hz due to heat. When playing PUBG, the phone as a whole would heat up pretty decently. I will be looking forward to how the Xperia 5 V handles thermals when it is finally announced and released. ... show more

  • Really nice camera and screen
Color: Black Style: Phone only
I've been using this phone for about a month now and have been able to take some really nice pictures with the camera. All 3 of the lenses are really well tuned and consistent. I can switch seamlessly between them and the color and white balance stay close to what I see with my eyes. The screen is also really well calibrated, which helps setup good shots and check the pictures you've taken. The battery life is crazy on this phone. I get around 2 days with >9 hours of screen time on a single charge. I've seen a lot of people complaining about overheating, but it hasn't been an issue for me. It got hot when I first took it out of the box and it was setting everything up, but it's been fine ever since then. I'll update this review if that changes. I also really like the size of this phone. The 6.1" screen is just the right size and it's really tall which is nice for web browsing. The tall screen also helps with the camera because all the controls are on the one side and you still get a lot of room for the viewfinder. Overall I really like this phone. It has all the features I need and is well built. Also, the SD card slot gives me plenty of extra room for pictures and videos. ... show more

  • Pretty phone that CANNOT. MAKE. PHONE. CALLS.
Color: Black Style: Phone only
I was very excited to get this phone; waited months for it. And now that I've had it for three months, I can say that it's beautiful and sleek. I love using it with almost every app. EXCEPT It has ALWAYS, since the day that it arrived, been TERRIBLE for making phone calls. Just a constant battle with trying to hear people and them hearing me. I thought it surely must be the carrier I had? No, I switched to AT&T, still terrible. Recently, it started getting worse to where I cannot have a successful phone call at all. So I talked to Sony support, they had me hard reset it TWICE and use a repair app. I'm not kidding, it's even worse than the previous decline. Now I just get static. Then Sony has the AUDACITY to have me send it in for repairs for 7-10 DAYS without a phone. Even though I can't make calls with it, I still need a phone for driving directions, texting, music, etc. TL:DR - 3 months after buying this phone and working with Sony Support, this phone no longer makes calls, and they won't replace it or refund me. They only want to repair it for 7-10 days while I have no phone in the meantime. ... show more
