Sony Xperia 5 III | Unboxing & Full Tour

Unboxing the Sony Xperia 5 III ahead of my full review, including a camera tour, full specs, gaming test with Genshin Impact and more. Here in the UK, the Xperia 5 III hits stores next month from £899, but is it one of the best premium smartphones of 2021?

Sony's more compact version of the Mark 3 flagship phone offers very similar specifications and features, including a near identical triple-lens camera setup. All that's missing there is a ToF sensor for real time object tracking. Performance is hot thanks to the Snapdragon 888 chipset, so gaming on PubG, CODM etc is effortless. Plus the Xperia 5 III boasts the same gamer features as the Xperia 1.

You've got the same size battery and a more compact form factor at 6.1-inches. Sure, there's no 4K resolution, but the HDR smarts and visual effects are back in action.

Full review of the Xperia 5 Mark 3 coming soon, in the meantime let me know your thoughts!
