We were a bit surprised, as to how Sony was able to improve the Xperia M5’s camera performance, to this unexpected level, with the Xperia M5 delivering very detailed and crisp still images.

Don’t get us wrong, the Xperia M4 Aqua’s camera performance is actually excellent, but the camera-level is clearly far. The Xperia M5 packs a whopping 21.2MP rear shooter and a 13MP front shooter, which is a huge leap from the Xperia M4 Aqua’s 13MP rear camera and 5MP front shooter, which pretty much showcases the biggest Xperia M5 leap from its predecessor.

And it doesn’t stop there, the Xperia M5 delivers a very amazing 4K resolution video, which more will be mentioned in our upcoming full comparison between the Xperia M5 and M4 Aqua.
