  • Good camera, Solid processor
  • Body feels less premium, Not ideally specced
  • Despite proving solid in all departments, the X compact has arrived a little late on the scene. It's no fault of the phone, however, but simply a fact that it was released alongside the XZ flagship and is not specced in a similar fashion, as has been the...

  • The polycarbonate body changes hue under different angles, True to its compact name, it's a joy to use in one hand, Display has great contrast and brightness, and classleading legibility in the sun, 23MP shooter is unmatched for detail, has good colors an
  • Sony's Compact line used to have the current best chipset, but not anymore, No dust or waterproofing, Selfie camera unimpressive, No 4K video recording even though the camera and chipset support it
  • To wrap things up, the Sony Xperia X Compact is a great small smartphone. If you look beyond the specs sheet, this is one of the best small phones you can buy. It has a capable camera that, in good light, would capture photos with unrivaled detail. It's g...

  • So, is this the end of the mini flagship? Based on the Xperia X Compact's spec sheet alone the answer is perhaps yes. But a full review later, we are ready to admit that the concept itself has evolved and this particular mini is trying to adapt to the new...

  • Abstract:  In modern times, Sony Mobile is king of the compact smartphone market. Nobody really makes flagship-tier Android smartphones that are smaller than 5 inches anymore. Sony dominated because their compact devices were only smaller than their full-sized count...

  • Small form factor makes for easy handling, Physical camera shutter button, Fast autofocus for still subjects, Decent battery life
  • No dust and water resistance
  • The Xperia X Compact features the same sexy body of its flagship model — only smaller. It's a bit of a fingerprint magnet unlike the previous series but is fairly tolerable as long as you don't mind wiping the body of the handset every once in a while.It...

  • I did like the X Compact, it was most definitely a refreshing change from huge smartphones out there in the market. If you are an Xperia fan, or someone who loves a small portable smartphone that packs on a tremendously powerful rear camera, the X Compact...

  • Curved circular edges offer a comfortable grip, Faster fingerprint scanner, Camera offers cleaner and brighter images, Stable performance
  • Glossy plastic rear can attract fingerprints, Decent battery, The display isn't as bright as the previous Z5C
  • Whether the Sony Xperia X Compact is truly a successor to the previous Xperia Z5 Compact is a very tricky question. The new device does bring in a new appealing design that feels more comfortable to hold, faster fingerprint scanning, better cameras th...

  • Abstract:  De hecho, con un diseño renovado en 2016 y que ya caracteriza a la marca, tenemos entre manos un modelo ‘candy bar unibody’ o lo que es lo mismo, un formato rectangular con la batería integrada, de laterales redondeados, fabricado en polímero pulido, lo c...
