The camera housing also includes the ZEISS T symbol, indicating the inclusion of the company’s anti-glare coating.

The leaked video provides a glimpse of the front of the phone. Notable features include:
- Noticeable bezels at the top and bottom
- 21:9 aspect ratio display

Other Features
Aside from the camera and design details, the video reveals several other features:
- 3.5mm port for audio
- Metal-looking frame
- Color options in black, white, and blue/gray
- Fingerprint sensor functionality integrated into the power button
- Dedicated camera shutter button
Expected Launch Date
While the exact launch and availability dates are yet to be confirmed, Sony typically releases its Xperia 5 models around September or October each year. However, the early video leak suggests that the Xperia 5 V might hit the market sooner than expected.
