The
Sony XPERIA Z5 Dual looks virtually identical to its predecessor, which we
like. The phone is a bit thicker at 7.3 mm and slightly heavier at 154 g. The
rounded edges are less pronounced, so the phone fits better in the hand. The
metal frame is still very slippery and the phone can easily slip off your
fingers.
At
the front, we have a 5.2-inch Full HD IPS display with scratch-resistant glass.
Fortunately, Sony has abolished the stupid screen protector on the screen,
which spoiled the otherwise high-quality look of the XPERIA Z3 +. In the upper
left corner are a 5 megapixel camera, the usual sensors and a notification LED.
They also have stereo speakers, which are located above and below and opposite
to each other. The phone retains its IP68 certification and is therefore dust
and water repellent. The slots for the two SIM cards and the micro SD card are
on the left and are covered by a flap. The on / off switch has been redesigned
with an integrated fingerprint sensor so that it is flat and does not touch the
body with the older, circular design. The volume rocker is still impractical on
the lower right side.
So you have to mix the phone with one hand to reach it.
The camera shutter button is directly below.
Sony
chose a matte glass for the back, which looks really good and feels good. It
also attracts fewer fingerprints and is easier to keep clean. Here we have the
new 23 megapixel camera and a single LED flash, followed by some hallmarks and
the NFC logo. Sony is probably one of the few mobile phone manufacturers that
still have a lanyard for a lanyard. The XPERIA Z5 Dual is a very nice phone.
The gold version we received looks particularly good and will certainly turn
heads. We did not receive a retail store, so the headset was missing, but the
charger and cable that came with the unit are well made and should last.
Specifications and Software:
The
datasheet of the XPERIA Z5 Dual is almost identical to its predecessor. The
phone is powered by an Octa-core Qualcomm Snapdragon 810-SoC and has 3GB of RAM
and 32GB of onboard memory (expandable up to 200GB). You also get Wi-Fi b / g /
n / ac, Bluetooth 4.1, USB OTG, GLONASS, NFC, FM radio and a 2900 mAh battery.
It's nice to see how Sony adds flagship functionality to this flagship model.
The variant sold in India E6683 supports LTE for volumes 40 and 3, however only
up to the category 4 (150 Mbit/s). The single SIM variant (E6653) supports LTE
category 6, which was not introduced here. This is somewhat disappointing as
most other Android flagships today support the faster LTE specification.
USB
OTG support is available, but only works if you tap "Detect USB
device" in the USB section of the Settings app. Otherwise, your flash
drive will not be displayed in file managers. The fingerprint sensor is easy to
set up and works as expected. Because it's on the side, you're most likely to
use your thumb when you're right-handed, or your index / middle-finger when
left-handed. The placement of the button is good, but since it is flat, it can
be a bit difficult to find at night. The volume rocker and the camera shutter
buttons work as usual. The phone supports Qualcomm Quick Charge 2.0 and ships
with the UCH10 charger, which supports 5V, 9V, and 12V output. We tested this by
charging the phone for 30 minutes when the battery was bone dry. We repeated it
with the phone turned on and off, and the battery was charged to exactly 26
percent each time. This should be enough to make at least the morning walk to
work.
