The Sony Xperia 5 IV stands out with its compact size and creator-focused features. It sports a 6.1-inch OLED display with a 21:9 aspect ratio, 120Hz refresh rate, and excellent color accuracy—ideal for media and multitasking.

Its triple 12MP camera setup doesn’t chase megapixels but delivers sharp, natural shots. The Photography Pro and Videography Pro apps offer full manual controls, making it perfect for enthusiasts and professionals. Low-light performance is decent, though it lacks the computational tricks of some rivals.

Battery life is solid with a 5,000mAh cell that lasts a full day. It supports wireless charging and 30W wired charging, though the latter is a bit slow by 2025 standards.

Extras like a headphone jack, microSD slot, and IP68 rating make it even more appealing. While it’s not for everyone, the Xperia 5 IV is a top pick for users who value precision, control, and a no-nonsense Android experience in a pocket-friendly design.
