Item arrived as described. Works just fantastic, it is very fast and battery is just long lasting. Yeah it doesnt come with cable or charger itself, but i have bought an original 30W Sony XQZ-UB1 charger which come with its Type-C to Type-C cable and works just wonderful. No major or minor thermal issues so far. Phone is thin and very ergonomic. Snap 8 Gen 2 is just power beast and thrue 120 Hz refresh rate is very nice too. Works with GSM carriers with no issues. This 21:9 Oled display is just miracle for everyday use ❤️

I liked this phone's features but the onboard radios just aren't compatible with U.S. networks. No 5G, no 3G, and spotty 4G at best. I would regularly encounter dead zones. I would walk 20 feet and it would switch from 4G to no service. I never saw the 5G symbol show up. Meanwhile, my $200 motorola phone worked perfectly with the same SIM card.
I did my best to make the phone work. T-Mobile customer service said the xperia 5 v was "not fully unlocked." I tried looking up procedures and codes for unlocking the xperia, but you cannot do it manually. A little research shows that this device just does not pick up the 3G, 4G, or 5G bands that U.S. carriers transmit and receive data on. There is no 3G radio at all.
The descriptions say that this will not work on Verizon. That's because it does not have a CDMA radio. CDMA was a 3G technology. The newer 4G networks do not require this. Still, it's a safe bet the phone won't work reliably with any U.S. carrier - ATT, Verizon, T-Mobile, or otherwise.
It might make sense to buy this phone if you were moving to a European country. That's where this was properly released.
It is a shame. The phone worked well on wi-fi and had a very nice camera and speakers. I liked the SD card slot and the headphone jack most of all. I just couldn't justify spending this much on something that would not be reliable for use other than wi-fi.
The phone itself is excellent, and I wish I could keep it. but all US carriers I tried lock out the phone at least partially (TMobile, Google Fi) if not completely (AT&T). If you're fine without 5G reception, TMobile could still work for you - LTE, calls, texts, even wifi calling all worked fine. I would have kept the phone if I had any service at my apartment except for 5G - but I was buying to get 5G service. AT&T didn't work at all - no calls or texts.
This is not the seller's or the phone's fault, but be aware that "GSM unlocked" still doesn't guarantee full compatibility, not like it used to. Carriers have device whitelists for certain features or their entire network, and without a US-specific model of the 5V, I doubt it will ever be added.
Generally, you but this phone for it's camera, so probably you already saw review videos. Pros: - Great camera with great software to support it. - Long screen and design, this phone is not wide and easy to hold. The screen has good resolution, and you can work comfortably with the phone. - Works with Mint mobile which is on the T mobile net work and ATT. Most of the carries have a white list, just to select the phone that they provide as a part of their package. In Europe and other countries most of the mobile plans are less then $30 a month with x10 of data plan, just in the US you pay over $50+
Cons: - This phone does not come with a charger and a cable. When you pay $1000+ for a phone you do not expect to waist your time looking to buy a charger and a cable too. Every phone comes with it! - Finger print sensors is not consistent and does not read well at times. At the same time it is located on the side button, so when you grab the phone you might unlock the screen too.
The Sony Xperia 5 V is definitely recommended and a nice option if you are looking for a smartphone that is not too large and can be operated with one hand. Great camera, oled/120hz screen and good sound quality

Have this phone and it’s a ok phone, and I’m a Sony phone junkie, with few exceptions. 1) screen feels like a downgrade just doesn’t look as sharp. 2) Android 14 has fd this phone stutters are frequent so are app freezings and closures. I have a pixel 8 as well and it smokes this phone imo. I also had the 1v which I sold for the smaller form factor of the 5v. My advice if you want a Sony phone get the 1v a much better phone imo. On the bright side the 5v works on Verizon/visible.
El equipo se ve muy bien, recordando que Sony es líder en calidad, aunque por los precios que están manejando, sería mejor que incluyeran al menos el cubo de carga ya que no es fácil encontrar los cargadores originales (o casi imposibles encontrarlos). Funciona al 100% con Telcel, aunque aún no identifico bien cuando si está en la red 5G o no.
Batería excepcionalmente buena, 2 días con uso promedio, un día con uso intensivo. La pantalla tiene buen brillo, el audio es increíble, potencia va de sobra, y las cámaras son un salto muy grande respecto al modelo IV del año pasado, buen manejo de hdr, puedes manejar la velocidad de obturación, balance de blancos, etc lo que te permite modificar la fotografía a tu gusto. Si te gusta dedicarle tiempo a la fotografía es muy bueno.
