Comparison review
The Galaxy A71 5G has a score of 91.8, which is a bit better than Sony Xperia 5 II's overall score of 87.2. Even though Galaxy A71 5G is better than the Sony Xperia 5 II, we must tell that it's also a little thicker and heavier. Xperia 5 II counts with just a little better performance than Samsung Galaxy A71 5G, and although they both have a Octa-Core processing unit, the Xperia 5 II also has 2 GB more RAM.
The Xperia 5 II has a bit more vivid display than Samsung Galaxy A71 5G, because although it has a quite smaller screen, it also counts with a bit higher display pixels density and a slightly better 1080 x 2520 pixels resolution. The Galaxy A71 5G shoots much clearer videos and photos than Sony Xperia 5 II, because although it has a tinier aperture which is not good for shooting photos and/or video in low-light situations and worse video frame rate, and they both have a same size sensor and the same 3840x2160 (4K) video resolution, the Galaxy A71 5G also counts with a much more mega-pixels back facing camera.
The Xperia 5 II's storage to install applications and games is very similar to Galaxy A71 5G's one, both of them have equal 128 GB internal storage and a slot for SD memory cards that supports up to 1000 GB. The Samsung Galaxy A71 5G counts with just a bit better battery performance than Xperia 5 II, because it has a 13 percent bigger battery size.
Samsung Galaxy A71 5G is not only the best phones of the ones we are comparing, but it's also very cheap compared to the other ones, which makes it a no doubt choice.
