Snapdragon 865 5G sits under the hood here, paired with 8GB RAM and your choice of 128GB or 256GB UFS 3.0 storage. That's flagship-class power from 2020, still enough to handle anything you throw at it today. The 6.1-inch OLED panel runs at 120Hz with a tall 21:9 ratio, which suits one-handed use and video playback alike, and HDR BT.2020 support adds proper contrast for streaming.
The camera setup is where Sony leans on its Zeiss partnership: three 12MP sensors covering wide, telephoto (3x optical zoom), and ultrawide, all with PDAF and OIS on the main and zoom lenses. Video goes up to 4K at 120fps with gyro-EIS stabilization, which is more suited to handheld footage than most phones in this class. Battery capacity is a modest 4000mAh, but 21W charging and IP65/IP68 water resistance round things out.
Sony Xperia 5 II price in Malaysia starts from RM4099. It comes in Black, Grey, Blue, and Pink, and still ships with a proper 3.5mm jack and stereo speakers, both increasingly rare on phones at this level.
