Short Review

  • The Sony Xperia E5 features a compact design with dimensions of 144 x 69 x 8.2 mm and a weight of 147 grams, making it comfortable to hold.
  • It has a 5.0-inch IPS LCD display with a resolution of 720 x 1280 pixels, providing decent clarity at approximately 294 ppi.
  • Performance is powered by a Mediatek MT6735 chipset, a quad-core 1.3 GHz Cortex-A53 CPU, and 1.5GB of RAM, which is adequate for basic tasks.
  • The rear camera boasts a 13 MP sensor with f/2.0 aperture, capable of recording 1080p video at 30fps, while the 5 MP front camera is suitable for selfies.
  • The 2300 mAh battery offers moderate longevity but lacks fast or wireless charging capabilities.
  • Running on Android 6.0 Marshmallow, the software experience is straightforward but may feel outdated compared to newer versions.
  • Connectivity options include Wi-Fi 802.11 a/b/g/n, Bluetooth 4.1, and NFC, enhancing its versatility.
  • The device is available in Graphite Black and White colors, though it lacks water resistance.
  • Overall, the Xperia E5 is a basic smartphone that covers essential features without any standout elements.
