Ordered on Wednesday evening, the package arrived on Friday morning from Germany to Dublin! Although the phone was rated as 'very good', I would swear it was brand new - it was that well serviced! I waited a week or so to get used to the phone before leaving a review but I have had no issues with it, especially the battery life which lasts easily into a second day - great service all round!

Hello, the Sony Xperia 1 5 consumes much less energy and heats up much less than its A3 predecessor. I'm pleased with its performance, which has been much improved.

I am a long time Sony fan and very much wanted an Xperia 1 V because it is the last of the line to be made with gorilla glass. I knew I would love the phone but the one that was delivered was in much better condition than I expected and it arrived much faster than I thought. so thank you very much, Back Market.

The phone is PERFECT! Not a single mark or scratch or anything on the casing, battery power is great and screen immaculate as described. Considering it's "good" condition I'm really really happy! And have already recommended to multiple people!

The buying process and delivery was swift and efficient, while the frequently updated info was prompt and reliable. This phone is truly amazing! The design features, the processor, the menu system, the camera (software), the sound, connectivity... literally everything has been stellar in the couple of weeks after transferring data from an Xperia XZ2. I absolutely believe Sony have outdone themselves with this flagship phone!!! Thank you Backmarket... Best buying process in a long while!!!

Great buy - phone is great for the price and looked in mint condition. The only negative was quite a lot of Japanese built in apps on the phone (I assume that's where it originated) but doesn't seem to affect anything important. Would definitely buy from Back market again.

The Sony Xperia 1 V stands out as Sony’s flagship smartphone from 2023 and still feels fresh in 2025, especially for fans of cinematic displays and pro-level photography. It carries on the Xperia tradition of large, sharp screens and powerful hardware, while adding new tricks for creatives, filmmakers, and anyone craving a unique Android experience.
Key features:The Sony Xperia 1 V is ideal for content creators, filmmakers, and photography lovers who want more manual control and advanced creative features than you’ll typically find on mainstream smartphones. It’s just right for those who prefer a taller display, value physical headphone jacks, or want to shoot cinema-style videos straight from their phone. If you’re deciding between Android flagships, the Xperia 1 V’s pro-level tools set it apart from options like the Samsung Galaxy S23 Ultra or Google Pixel 8 Pro, but be prepared for software that leans more ‘professional’ than ‘plug-and-play’.
Pros & Cons:| Pros | Cons |
|---|---|
| 4K OLED display with 21:9 aspect ratio for cinematic viewing. | Display may feel narrow and tall for typical smartphone usage. |
| Pro camera features, including real-time eye autofocus and RAW shooting. | Camera app interface is complex for casual users. |
| Snapdragon 8 Gen 2 delivers reliable flagship performance. | Software updates may lag behind Google or Samsung rivals. |
| Headphone jack and microSD slot—unusual for modern flagships. | Speakers are solid, but trail the best in the market. |
