About Sony Xperia 5 III
The Sony Xperia 5 III presents a compact yet premium feel, measuring 68 mm wide, 157 mm tall and just 8.2 mm thick while weighing in at 169 grams. Its 6.1‑inch AM‑OLED panel delivers vivid colours and sharp detail at a Full HD+ resolution of 1080 by 2520 pixels, offering a bright viewing experience for media and everyday use. The device is configured for a single SIM card, keeping the tray simple and the overall silhouette sleek.
Under the surface, the phone runs Google Android 11 out of the box, powered by 8 gigabytes of RAM that supports smooth multitasking and responsive app performance. A 4500 mAh battery sits inside the chassis, aiming to provide enough endurance for a full day of typical usage.
