Comparison review
Xperia 5 III has a score of 90.5, which is way better than the OnePlus Nord 2 5G's 73.1 general score. Both phones we compare here have the same Android 11 OS (operating system), so both of them should provide the same operating system features. Xperia 5 III is a somewhat lighter cellphone than the OnePlus Nord 2 5G, but they are equally thin.
The Sony Xperia 5 III features a slightly better looking display than OnePlus Nord 2 5G, because although it has a quite smaller display, it also counts with a slightly better 1080 x 2520 resolution and a just a bit greater count of pixels in each inch of screen. OnePlus Nord 2 5G counts with a bit better hardware performance than Sony Xperia 5 III, although it has 2 GB lesser RAM, they both have a Octa-Core processing unit.
The OnePlus Nord 2 5G counts with a slightly better camera than Sony Xperia 5 III, because although it has slower 30 fps video frame rate and a tinier aperture which is worse for taking photographs in low-light situations, and they both have the same video resolution, the OnePlus Nord 2 5G also counts with a camera in the back with much more MP.
Xperia 5 III counts with a very superior storage capacity for games and applications than OnePlus Nord 2 5G, because it has more internal memory capacity and a slot for external memory cards that allows up to 1 TB. The Sony Xperia 5 III counts with a battery lifetime that is just as good as OnePlus Nord 2 5G's battery duration.
