Design and Build
The Sony Xperia 5 maintains the sleek and refined design language that Sony is known for. The dimensions of the phone measure 158 x 68 x 8.2 mm, and it weighs 164 grams, making it lightweight and easy to handle with one hand. A notable feature is its IP65/IP68 dust and water resistance, providing peace of mind against the elements. The choice of a glass front and back using Corning Gorilla Glass 6 ensures durability and a premium feel. The omission of a 3.5mm headphone jack aligns with modern design trends, but the presence of stereo speakers helps deliver an impressive audio experience despite this change.
