Sony Xperia 5 V


Last year, Sony launched its Xperia 1 IV in September and we’re slowly reaching the one-year point mark which suggests we should be looking forward to the Xperia 5 V launch. Luckily for us, Reddit user JB2unique shared an official-looking promo video for the next-gen Xperia 5 phone.

The video shows the Xperia 5 V's refreshed design which features a dual camera setup on the back. This likely means that the Xperia 5 V will boast a wide and ultrawide camera setup and will skip out on the telephoto module which was present on all four of its predecessors.

The front of the device looks nearly identical to that on the Xperia 1 IV and we also get confirmation that the upcoming device will retain the 3.5mm headphone jack. The device will be available in at least three colors which are shown towards the end of the video – black, white and blue.

The only known specs for the Xperia 5 V thus far are that it will be equipped with a Snapdragon 8 Gen 2 chipset and up to 16GB of RAM thanks to a Geekbench listing. We also got confirmation the device will support 33W fast charging.
