For those serious about creating and enjoying mobile content, the frosted glass and blasted metal frame of the Sony XPERIA 5 III Dual-SIM 128GB 5G Smartphone is packed with technology for photographers, cinephiles, and gamers alike. Taking cues from their Sony Alpha cameras, the triple rear 12MP lenses and ZEISS optics give you a wide range of imaging capabilities. You get ultra-wide and wide angle capabilities, as well as dual focal-length (70mm & 105mm) telephoto for close-up shots. Add in subject tracking, SteadyShot 4K video, and low-light support, and you're still only scratching the surface of what this phone can do.
When gaming and viewing streaming TV and movies, the 6.1" 21:9 HDR OLED 120 Hz Display gives you a smooth and wide canvas to view more of your content in stunning quality. In fact, a Creator Mode allows the Xperia 5 III to achieve color accuracy to view content as creators intended. Gamers will enjoy the 120 Hz refresh rate and 240 Hz touch scanning rate for fast-paced action, as well as immersive Dolby Atmos audio support and the ability to easily capture and share impressive gaming achievements.
All of this and more is powered by the Qualcomm Snapdragon 888 5G Mobile Platform and 8GB of RAM. Featuring 128GB of storage space and a microSD slot with support for (optional) cards up to 1TB, there's plenty of storage space for your apps, images, and videos. When it comes to mobile connectivity, Sony delivers with 4G LTE and blazing fast Sub-6 5G access. You can also connect to local networks via Wi-Fi 6 (802.11ax) technology and utilize Sony's Smart Connectivity feature to ensure a stable connection.
GSM/4G LTE + 5G Wireless Connectivity
This phone is designed to work on select GSM & 5G (Sub-6) networks. 5G is a cellular network data protocol capable of extremely fast data speeds that rival, or surpass, that of wired broadband Internet providers. 5G speeds can vary considerably based on location, but on average, should have no problem streaming 4K video. As 5G upgrades over time, mobile AR and VR applications could become possible. The phone is backwards compatible with 4G LTE, 3G, and 2G data for locations that do not support 5G.
North American Variant / US Compatible 5G
The Xperia 5 III is a North American variant. It may be used in other parts of the world; however, 5G access may be limited or unsupported, depending on the network. Please choose your country/carrier above to confirm the network compatibility of this phone.
Dual SIM Dual Standby (DSDS)
Dual SIM Dual Standby (DSDS) allows you to lower your mobile costs when traveling while staying connected. Once your SIM cards are installed, you will be able to receive phone calls and text messages from either without needing to manually choose which one is active. When you want to make a call or send an SMS message, you can select the correct SIM card. When one SIM card is being used for a phone call, the other will not be active until you hang up. Operator charges may apply.
Subject Tracking
Combining continuous autofocus and AI, you can track and shoot fast-moving subjects while taking clear images and video. Simply tap the screen to specify your subject.
Burst Shooting
Capture multiple in-focus and properly exposed images, even of fast-moving subjects, with Continuous AF/AE calculation at up to 60 fps and burst shooting at 20 fps.
Low-Light Images
Using the BIONZ X mobile engine and large 1/1.7" Exmor RS sensor, the Xperia 5 III can pull in more light and reduce noise for sharper images in low-light, even while burst shooting.
Sony Alpha-Inspired Interface
Inspired by their Sony Alpha cameras, Sony equipped the Xperia 5 III with a similar interface that's capable of a variety of automatic settings and manual controls, such as RAW shooting, Manual mode, and Basic mode. With Manual mode, you can adjust the ISO, shutter speed, white balance, and more. In Basic mode, you get a touch shutter button and the ability to alter portrait orientation, Bokeh effect, panorama, and more.
Sony Alpha Camera Compatible
If you own a Sony Alpha camera, you can utilize the Xperia 5 III as a secondary display or as a remote to adjust camera settings, such as fine-tuning white balance and calibrating color temperature to D50 or D55, and take photos wirelessly using the Imaging Edge Mobile app
