Sony announced the new Xperia 5 back at IFA this year, while the name convention sounds confusing this is essentially their compact phone of the year offering the same spec as the Xperia 1 but in a more hand-friendly format. While it is technically a 6.1-inch phone, the 21:9 CinemaWide display means it is narrower than other phones above 6-inches.

The Sony Xperia 5 launches SIM-free for £699 and Amazon have an amazing deal where you can get the WF-1000XM3 True Wireless Noise Cancelling Headphones for free which currently sell for £219
