  • Small compact form factor, Bright display, Front-facing speakers, Good battery life, Great camera, microSD expansion, Fast performance
  • No fingerprint sensor(US version), No dust and water resistance, Premium price
  • The Sony Xperia X Compact is designed for people who still want a small phone without a lot of compromises, and while this phone can fulfill that need very well, it unfortunately comes at a premium that most people may not be willing to pay...

  • Great size, Long-lasting battery, Dependable camera, Sharp, colourful screen
  • Not an evolution, Scratchy plastic
  • Sony's Xperia X Compact isn't much of an evolution over last year's Xperia Z5 Compact, offering up pretty much the same performance and battery life while also stripping away water resistance and 4K video recording. Considering it's about the same price...

  • Camera, Display, Battery Life, Software, Storage capacity, Front-facing speakers
  • Build quality, Small Size, Boring design, No Fingerprint Sensor on US models
  • Sony has always been known for charging a premium for their devices. Even outside of the mobile space. And the Xperia X Compact is no different. This device will set you back $499 in the US. Which is quite a hefty price for a smartphone of this size, espe...

  • Small, but not cheaply made, Solid screen, even at 720p, Great performance and battery life, Strong camera
  • No fingerprint sensor, Plastic may not appeal to everyone, No Quick Charge charger included, Expensive for the size
  • Going into reviewing the Xperia X Compact, I was excited to use a "small" phone again primarily from the perspective of nostalgia; watching phones get bigger and bigger, I just wanted something more compact that didn't make compromises in experience. Over...

  • Compact, comfortable to hold and carry design, Excellent battery life, Very good outdoor visibility, Functionallyrich multimedia apps suite
  • Smallish keys with shallow feedback, Comes with a third of the internal storage occupied, Finger scanner not available on the US version
  • At the sub-$500 price point that Sony is offering the X Compact at launch, there may be more than enough niche demand to justify its release. The only compromise made with the cutie, compared with its predecessors, is the midrange Snapdragon chipset, but...
