Well...to be honest it is a good mobile have been using it from 5 months...however, do not expect it to be over the moon....it gives good battery backup my goes for 2 days with gaming and mobile data....camera in day light is awesome and in night it above average...all in all it is far better than Iphone 6s if you compare the price and features.

That's insane for any phone to handle without overheating. I would say the Z5c has no overheating problems. Rather, it's users that have unrealistic expectations. I would be happy to game 2 hours on ANY phone w/o having to give my device and hands a break. :)
Usually, I expect to game half an hour, an hour at best, before a small ventilation pause.

Been using the phone for two months and it has been a blast. Overheating only happens if you push the device for a long time, which is completely normal.
Everything works fast. All features work well. Best android phone I have ever had, which was a humongous surprise to me after all the issues I had with Z1.
I highly recommend this phone to anyone who wants the BEST small Android phone on the market, if you can get it from a respectable retailer. There is literally no other phone @ this size that is better right now. A fact.

Had mine now for 6 months and I love it, fast, reliable and a quite capable phone. Only con is that it froze three times and had to reboot, quite sure it's some software problem. overall quite happy with it.

Used for 2 months. Heating almost all the time, low battery performance regarding phone form factor (much less then Xperia Z3 Compact), nice camera.

sag, 29 Aug 2016Hi guys, need your opinion plz, if you're familiar with this Z5C first hand.
I'm thinking of ... moreI have used it for about 2 months, the reason I choose this phone is because its the best compact phone, and absolutely, z5c's spesifications is more than enough for playing the mobile games, if you r not the mobilegame player, the heating issue will not disturbing you, but if you like to use it as gaming phone, you need to take the phone to rest after 2 hours of playing because this phone will heating enough, after all, its a great compact phone
For sony x compact, I didnt realize it will become the upgrading from z5c, except only at their camera, may be

The overheating is annoying but it can be managed by buying a case that covers the back of the phone. That's where it gets hot and this way you at least won't feel it. I never had an overheating warning but the phone slowed down to the point it was barely usable while playing games in hot weather.

Anonymous, 09 Aug 2016Why would you put it in a pool when cleary Sony said. Don't do thatI have full submerged, maybe 10cm or 20cm deep, but fully underwater. I had done this maybe 3 or 4 times already of the past few months. Took an undewater video of some koy fish in a pond. Phone is working 100%.

Hi guys, need your opinion plz, if you're familiar with this Z5C first hand.
I'm thinking of getting one because it seems to be the most relevant sub-5" display android offer right now (think otherwise?), but i'm concerned about it's overheating issue and its SD810.
I'm not playing games and my main use is phone calls, whatsapp, gps navigating, youtube video, email, FM radio sometimes.
I see there are other options for sub-5" phones but most with under 2GB ram and i'd like everything to run smooth enough.
From your experience do you think i should encounter overheating with such use?
Or is it worth waiting for X compact with maybe SD820 (but probably much higher price...).
thanks in advance.

Honeast1, 26 Aug 2016In my opinion screen quality of Amoled is best.Fake technology in my opinion:
1.Way too much green/yellow tinting and overall unreal colors...
2.Very eye tiring...
3.Battery consuming at same level of usage as Lcd (at least in my experience with Xperia Z5 vs S6)...
4.Many times i need intimacy when writing messages so i don't need good corner views.
For me Z5c has the best balance in every aspect.
