Sony Xperia Z5 and Xperia Z5 Compact unboxing

Well folks, they are finally here! We have gotten our hands on a pair of brand-new Sony smartphones – the flagship Xperia Z5 and the “mini flagship” Xperia Z5 Compact. Of course, we un-boxed them in front of the camera for your viewing pleasure.

If you held out and skipped the Xperia Z3+, then the new flagship will delight you with a 64-bit processor, a fingerprint scanner, and a supposedly improved camera. The same is true for the Xperia Z5 Compact, which has similar hardware to the Z5, sans 1 GB of RAM (the Compact has 2 GB, whereas the Z5 has 3 GB). The smaller model also has a plastic frame around its body, whereas the bigger one has cool-feeling metal. But in all honesty – both look Sony-level good! Check them out below!
