TCL 10 5G UW takes better pictures and videos than Sony Xperia 5, because although it has a smaller aperture which is not favorable for taking pictures in low light situations, and they both have the same 30 fps video frame rates and the same 3840x2160 video resolution, the TCL 10 5G UW also counts with a back camera with a lot higher resolution.
