Sony Xperia 5 V

After a leaked promotional video surfaced last month, Sony  has now officially unveiled the launch date for its much-anticipated camera-centric “mid-ranger,” the Xperia 5 V. In the hopes of avoiding any confusion, we can only hope they steer clear of the Xperia 5 5 5 naming convention.

Mark your calendars for the unveiling scheduled next Friday, September 1, in Japan. The live stream event is set to commence on YouTube at 12 PM Pakistan time.

The teaser video provides a tantalizing glimpse into the phone’s remarkable camera prowess, excelling in capturing both vivid daytime shots and captivating nighttime imagery. Confirming earlier leaks from a promotional video, the Xperia 5 V is primed to introduce a dual-camera arrangement.

Interestingly, the promo video offers a complete visual of the phone’s design overhaul. The Xperia 5 V breaks away from its predecessors’ look, boasting a distinct dual-camera setup. Check out the accompanying screenshots to witness the evolution.

While the rear design undergoes a transformation, the front preserves the conventional bezels, housing the front camera, earpiece, and essential sensors. Notably, the reassuring presence of the headphone jack underscores Sony’s commitment to its retention, a trend we anticipate will continue across Sony phones for the foreseeable future.

Furthermore, reliable sources reveal that the phone will be powered by a Snapdragon 8 Gen 2 chipset, potentially offering an impressive 16 GB of RAM, as indicated by a listing on Geekbench. Strengthening this anticipation, a certification issued by China’s 3C agency has endorsed the integration of 33W fast charging technology.

As for pricing, specifics remain elusive, yet it’s safe to speculate that this phone won’t come cheap. Keep your eyes peeled for the upcoming Xperia 5 V launch event to get a comprehensive look at Sony’s latest addition to the smartphone landscape.
