The Xperia M5 doesn't have a gyroscope, it has an accelerometer and compass.

Oh, what a shame

So I could never see 360° videos o photos?

Dionisio89 el M5 no tiene el giroscopio, pueda que tenga el "raw gyroscope" (que todos los nuevos modelos basados en tecnología de MTK tienen para gesture control que de toda manera el Sony no soporta) y eso no se puede usar por los videos a 360 grados.

English: Dionisio89, the M5 has no gyroscope, it has instead the "raw gyroscope" (that is used by all new MTK chipset for gesture control, feature that it's not officially supported by Sony) and cannot be used to watch 360 videos.

Please add support for Cardboard VR and VR apps in general to Xpedia M5 D6503. Its not here since 5.0 and we have 6.0 now. I had it working in my older Xperia devices.
