Description
As Sony Xperia Z5 is featuring the signature time-tested OmniBalance design, it’s rather hard to mistake Sony’s new flagship for anything else than a top-end Xperia, sporting elements and matte back glass cover. At the front we have a 5.2-inch 1080p display; under the hood, we find a Snapdragon 810 chipset, 3GB of RAM, 32GB of storage, microSD card slot, and 2,900mAh battery. There’s also a 23MP rear camera with Exmor RS sensor and what’s claimed as the world’s fastest autofocus (0.03s); at the front, we find a 5MP selfie shooter with an Exmor R sensor. Android 5.1 with Sony’s Xperia UI runs the show.
