  • Good battery life, Compact size, Camera shutter button
  • Ugly design, Slow, unreliable camera, No longer water-resistant, Expensive for what you get
  • Sony Xperia X Compact – Camera The Sony Xperia X Compact packs a very similar camera setup to the flagship Xperia XZ. There's a non-stabilised 23-megapixel sensor on the back, with a wide 24mm f/2 lens and flash. It lacks the white-balance sensor added on...

  • While everyone else in the smartphone game has attempted to upsize their offerings to gargantuan proportions, Sony Mobile's rather novel X Compact goes the other direction by attempting to optimise their hardware into a true one-handed form factor by putt...

  • Comfortable 4.6-inch display with Triluminos and X Reality technologies, Durable battery thanks to Quick Charge 3.0 and useful battery saving modes, Fingerprint scanner and USB Type-C, Android 6.0 Marshmallow and a simplified UI with useful pre-installed
  • No water-resistance certificate, No 4К video recording, Slightly thicker profile of 9.5 mm
  • When we are talking about Android smartphones, it is difficult to find models with screen size less than 5 inches as the 5.5-inch diagonal is growing ever more popular. We believe that there certainly is a group of users who still prefer more compact devi...

  • Very good battery autonomy, Modern design, Display cuts through outdoor glare very well
  • Not waterproof like Sony's previous compact Xperias, Dedicated camera key is redundant, USB TypeC connector supports USB 2.0, but not 3.0
  • Sony Xperia X Compact The hardware keeps the Sony Xperia X Compact out of the flagship space, but it's still one of the best devices smaller than five inches on the market. Its long-lasting battery deserves the most praise, and we also like its modern...

  • very good build quality, good performance, long battery runtimes in practice, USB Type-C, decent speakers, good camera, bright display, storage expansion via microSD
  • sensitive glossy surfaces, comparatively thick chassis, only USB 2.0, slower than the previous models in some scenarios, no IP certification (water, dust) anymore, no 4K video recordings
  • After the review of the new Xperia X Compact, we are a little disappointed that there are no more compact and high-end Android phones. If you want to have the fastest components, you will now have to get a larger device or have a look at the competition f...

  • Abstract:  Compact smartphones, which have serious stuffing, do not occur too often. One of them can be considered Sony Xperia X Compact, which appeared in the autumn of 2016. Someone even called him “murderer» iPhone SE. A device with a screen 4.6 “is equipped with...

  • Bright display, Excellent battery life, Good for small hands
  • Camera disappoints in low light, Sound could be better, Smudge-prone design
  • Sony's Xperia X Compact has a bright, beautiful display that's easily viewable outdoors on a sunny day. The phone's 11-hour battery life impresses, and its compact size makes it easy to hold and use with one hand.Still, $500 is a lot to pay for a phone wh...
