Sony Xperia 5 V vs Xiaomi 13T Pro - Battle of the Almost Flagships 

If the Xperia and Xiaomi were the same price, I'd choose the Xperia because of its more premium design and better main camera, but given the price difference - the Xiaomi 13T Pro wins out on value for money. Which do you prefer and why?

Why is Sony Xperia 5 V is just better than Xiaomi 13T Pro: Snapdragon 8 Gen 2 Vs. Mediatek Dimensity 9200+ While it's true that MT D9200+ is better than SD 8 Gen 2 when it comes to processing power, but it's only marginally and impossible to notice in day to day usage. HOWEVER SD 8 Gen 2's Adreno GPU is much better than Immortalis-G715 MC11. Camera. Yes Xiaomi 13T Pro does have a bigger sensor main cam with higher resolution but again only slightly (1/1.28" Vs. 1/1.35"), so Xperia 5 V wins by using a revolutionary technology sensor Exmor T. The Ultra Wide cam is better on Xperia 5 V thanks to the bigger sensor and better hardware but Xiaomi 13T Pro has a telephoto with X2 optical zoom while Xperia 5 V this year has no telephoto cam but it can still produce nice quality pic using digital zoom. Storage. Yes Xiaomi 13T Pro does have bigger capacity options (1TB Vs. 256GB) BUT Xperia 5 V does support memory card slot which is better than having to rely only on internal storage. Battery Both have 5000mAh but Sony Xperia 5 V uses a more battery efficient display as well as more battery efficient SoC. Premium design. Xperia 5 V design is more premium and protected with higher quality Gorilla glass (Corning Gorilla Glass Victus 2 Vs. The old Corning Gorilla Glass 5) Headphone Jack. USB Type C 3.3 Vs the traditional 2.0 on Xiaomi 13T Pro.

Any comment or sample of the high dynamic range video of the Sony Xperia 5 v, which now also supports video stabilization? Thanks

4:34 both aspect ratios are almost equally bad for viewing non cinematic content. You mentioned YT, but not even your videos are in 20:9, and most videos on YT, Netflix and other streaming platforms still run in 16:9. Most videos on those sites would have chunky black bars irrespective of how you look at it.

Big question Just got mine but the ratio choice in camera pro gives me 12mp or 9mp option Is there a way to use the imput from the 48mp sensor?

Currently choosing between 4 devices and these are 2 of them. The other two are Xiaomi 14 and Oneplus 12

I wonder if the blue-shifting on the Xperia 5 V may be affected by the screen's white balance setting? It can be adjusted and it may be set slightly cooler out of the box. In addition , is there a difference between the standard mode and the creator mode for this phenomenon, since they also affect the white balance ?

i regret after selling my 1 mark 2 captures very realistic photos, now im using pixel not so good total ai based camera feels like artistic unreal images . planning to buy 1 mark 3 .

There is a single Xperia model which distinguish itself from rest of the crowd.

honestly i would choose xperia 🙂

I am still using Mi 10T of Xiaomi for my video and photo works.

Xperia's turn to hold very good resale value unlike many other Chinese android devices

The xperia 5 iv is better than the the xperia 5 v for sure. In my opinion any phone that doesn't have expandable memory is not gonna get my money.

4:44 the xiomi screen looks more blue lul

Why You Are Not Comparing Sony Phones With Apple Iphone...

I'm excited for the new Sony Xperia 5 in 2024.

I own the Xiaomi 13 T pro, everything is perfect in it in every parameter except the camera. Despite the connection with Leica, it is very disappointing camera

🙂

It's sad that they needed to downgrade the screen due to the green-line issue that plagues the previous Xperia 5 series. This one really makes it look like it's the Xperia 10 series. Should've started at $899

Xiaomi gets a win when it's come to the screen? Are you serious?

Always choose Sony Xperia...❤❤👍👍

13 t

Sony Xperia... 👍🏻❤️

Lol forgot that Xperia 5 has an SD card slot.

The xperia 5 V was perfect until it has received A14. My phone now has got awful transitions, like 20fps and scrolling its like a entry level phone. With A13 and the screen fixed at 60hz was perfect to me, now I hate it

I have always been a Sony lover,,,, nothing comes close to Xperia

Japanese phone VS chinese phone....

مقایسه شیائومی با سونی توهین به سونی هست.

I have always been a Sony fan but their latest name model is terrible. I no longer know which one is their glaship and which one is their mid-ranger. Also, which one is the latest model and which one is the last year's one... Why couldn't they just named them Xperia 1, Xperia 1 Pro; Xperia 2, Xperia 2 Pro, Xperia 3, Xperia 3 Pro, etc..?

Done with Sony 🫣

Starting to lose hope with Sony. Sony clearly don’t care much about their mobile division

The 5 V is a big downgrade compared to the 5 IV. Those big bezels on the 5 V are unbelievable. No telephoto, no notification LED and a worse screen quality. 👎 I hope they will make the VI series a lot better.
