The Sony Xperia 5 II, once hailed as a flagship model, has now faced an awkward situation over time. At the beginning, it was launched at 5999 yuan, but today, three years later, it is in the second-hand market, but it is large, and there are only four or five hundred yuan left. What is the reason behind this huge ** decline?
First of all, the unique design concept of Sony phones does not seem to be popular in the domestic market. The 21:9 fish screen, 163-gram thin body, and retro button design make the Sony Xperia 5 II stand out from the crowd. However, it is this uniqueness that makes it not so convenient for everyday use.
Secondly, the system localization of Sony mobile phones is quite rough, and it doesn't even come with basic apps such as weather and calendars when it leaves the factory. At the same time, there are many system bugs and the difficulty of flashing the machine is high, which undoubtedly seriously affects the user experience. In addition, Sony also does not seem to be good at performance tuning, with average battery life, the screen is prone to green lines, and the camera algorithm is not satisfactory.
Despite this, the Sony Xperia 5 II still exudes a unique temperament, and its industrial design lines are square and restrained, showing Sony's "stubbornness". Even though the mobile phone business is losing money, Sony still insists on making its favorite products. This also makes the Sony Xperia 5 II a phone that people love and hate.
Overall, the Sony Xperia 5 II may not be a phone for mass consumers, but its maverick and pursuit of quality make people respect it. For those who like to try it out and are looking for something unique, it might be worth checking out. However, for those who are looking for a value for money and focus on the convenience of everyday use, this phone may not be suitable.
