Sony has officially launched the Xperia 5 Mark 3 in India, positioning it as a powerful yet compact Android flagship for creators, gamers, and photography enthusiasts. Known for its unique 21:9 cinematic display and professional camera software, the Xperia 5 III blends style and performance in a refreshingly small size.
Sleek Design with a Cinematic Feel
The Xperia 5 Mark 3 continues Sony’s minimalist design philosophy with a glass-metal sandwich body, matte finish, and a tall 21:9 aspect ratio. It features a 6.1-inch Full HD+ OLED display with 120Hz refresh rate, HDR10, and 240Hz touch sampling, making it perfect for cinematic viewing and ultra-smooth gaming.
Despite being compact, the phone feels premium and is IP65/IP68 rated for dust and water resistance.
Powered by Snapdragon 888 with 5G
Under the hood, the Xperia 5 III is powered by the Snapdragon 888 5G processor, paired with 8GB RAM and 128GB storage (expandable via microSD). Whether you’re editing videos, gaming on the go, or multitasking across apps, the performance is smooth and responsive.
It also includes 360 Reality Audio, Hi-Res Audio, and a 3.5mm headphone jack, maintaining Sony’s focus on audio excellence.
Professional-Grade Triple Camera Setup
Sony equips the Xperia 5 Mark 3 with a triple 12MP camera system co-developed with its Alpha division. The highlight is the variable telephoto lens, which switches between 70mm and 105mm focal lengths. Combined with Zeiss optics, Real-time Eye Autofocus, and 4K HDR 120fps video recording, this phone is a serious tool for mobile photography.
The 8MP front camera is sharp and supports Full HD video calls and selfies with natural skin tones.
Clean Android Experience with Long-Term Support
The Xperia 5 III runs Android 12, close to stock, with minimal bloatware and Sony’s camera and audio enhancements. Sony has promised 2 major Android updates and 3 years of security patches, ensuring peace of mind for long-term use.
