Sony Xperia M5 Review

    See other variants reviews Score: 70.6 / 100

Sony Xperia M5 is a top-notch phone released some years ago, in 2015, provisioned with a very fast Octa-Core processor ticking at 2 GHz, a pretty large 5 inches display, and 2 cameras, a 21.5 MP back camera and a 13 megapixels front camera.

The Sony Xperia M5 has an inspired design, with a thickness of just 0.3 inches. The Sony Xperia M5 is a very compact cellphone, taking into consideration it presents a 5" display and it only has 5.71" long. This phone is much lighter than what you would expect from a device like this. This cellphone combines Plastic and Metal . This phone is available just in 16 777 216 color.

Sony decided to sell this device with a very fast 2 GHz Octa-Core CPU, bundled in a MediaTek Helio X10 MT6795 chip with a large 3 GB of RAM. A good point of the Sony Xperia M5 is the 16 GB quite big internal storage memory and a slot for an external memory card, which allows you to install a couple hundred games and apps without worrying about space.

This cellphone has a high-tech 1080 x 1920 (Full HD) 5-inches display, making everything look perfect.

The Sony Xperia M5 is equipped with two cameras, a 21.5 MP back-facing camera and a 13 megapixels front-facing camera. It can also shoot videos up to 3840x2160 (4K).

This phone packs amassive 2600 mAh non-removable battery that can keep this phone running for several hours without charging it at all. An issue to take into consideration is that this phone's battery isn't replaceable so you won't be able to replace it when it starts to have trouble holding its charge, whereas with its 2600 mAh you will probably discard this phone before it becomes an issue.

This phone has Wi-Fi connectivity (which it can share with other devices around, acting as a modem or router), LTE (4G) great performance internet connection and also HSPA+ internet connection, which is a lower speed 4G technology and fast 3G internet connection, over HSDPA and HSUPA technologies. This cellphone supports dual sim cards so it's able to use two different phone lines or carriers at the same time.

This device also features a wide variety of useful features as Near Field Communication (NFC), Bluetooth (4.1 ), GPS (Global Positioning System) and FM Radio, and multiple sensors like Light Sensor, Proximity Sensor, Accelerometer and Compass.

If you are an amateur photographer, want it for playing games, are looking for a cellphone majorly for internet broswing and social networks or need a cellphone for work, you will probably love this device.
