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
