Sony Xperia Z5 Compact - user opinions and reviews

Got this phone last week, and very happy with it so far. Was a bit worried after reading the reviews but now that I got it, I like it. They fixed the few small issues I had with the previous one (Z3 Compact). They also added the fingerprint reader that is very conveniently placed on the power button. They also removed that annoying flat that you had to open to charge the phone, the usb connection is also now waterproof which is a great addition. I'm not a fan of a big phone and, for me, this is the best android phone in this size. Hope Sony continues making them. I don't want a massive phone.

AnonD-481725, 08 Nov 2016He said that their screen's were cracked which means collision.No, he said "self cracking glass" which means the screen cracked by itself, for no apparent reason.
This is a known and documented problem on Z2 & Z3 models
Collision means some type of impact. Learn English correctly before correcting others.

Too good yet too fragile...
I was looking for a small size phone with a front facing speakers and the Z5C was the very obvious choice.
the performance was good and the finger print sensor did a great job, the camera was flawless and the way i could hold it due to its size gave me a full control of it , all and all it was so good.
BUT
In the second week, it fell and the screen cracked, I'm disappointed with sony BC i was a drop from less then 2 feet and it cracked so easily. SONY should do better.
if you are buying it with a case or any kind of protection I say go for it, otherwise do NOT.

FYI: every night I brought my XZ5C to sleep, and when I woke up, sometimes my phone end up at the corner of my room, sometimes under my body, but my phone awesomely alright.

Everything works like a charm but batterylife is a joke... I did have a LG G2 and the Z5 Compact sucks compared to it.

I got this phone on July, yes Z5C is really awesome, great camera (on good light), fair battery consumtion, no lag, and light.
But, yes this phone overheat much, i play dungeon quest for 15 minutes and the phone temperature raise to 43*C, but I dont really care, coz when i play game for 1 hour or more the phone temperature just stay at 45*C. Not a big deal.

I have had my z5c for about a year now when it began to not switch the screen on again after I had made or received a call. Big fiddle trying to get the call ended if other side did not hangup - air minutes dissappearing.
Checked the proximity sensor in settings/about phone/diagnostics/test and found it was staying switched on all the time. I cleaned out the sensor window through the cutout hole in my glass screen protector with a tissue and it began to work again. The sensor hole is next the charging led indicator.

Guys phone is slow with Marshmallow and ram usage always more than 90%
I had z3c and it was really much faster and smoother
Really this phone disappoints me :(

Philoz , 21 Oct 2016How do I overcome overheating problems? What app uses the most juice?
Try to disable google location history ( setting - location)
Disable myXperia (setting - security - find my device)
Disable adaptive brightness (setting - display)
See if those make any changes. Afterward you can re-enable them one by one to see which troublesome service is. Some people also reported that disabling google calendar also helps.
