Sony Xperia Z5 Compact - user opinions and reviews

What a shitty upgrade, not even worth spending money on. Why does no one make good smartphones anymore that last 3 days between charges like in 2012. Is technology getting worse with time? Or does everybody only want quantity over quality?

I had an Xperia phone long ago but the phone was getting scratches really easily even though it was advertised as "scratch resistive". I wonder if the screen resistivity improved now, how strong is it? That's the only concern that prevents me from buying Sony Xperia phones. I really hate using screen protectors. Otherwise this phone seems pretty good.

Why? just go to iPhone 6s comment page and see how many 'interesting comments' and replies appear every 30 mins or so. You'll know the rest.

You should be not believe me, but this is what I know/see.
I always refer the official site, if you're interested to Z5 series please contact them and giving your suggestion your view your feedback to help them change their strategy.

Excitement is gone, as a proof, Z5 Premium used to be on top of the daily rating here, but now is out. I'm almost tempted to buy the Note5 but Samsung wasted it's multitasking capability due to a limited storage. But Z5 Compact is not around, I just keep waiting, waiting and waiting...

I recently bought an Xperia C4 and I'm pretty satisfied with it. If I even have a chance to choose a phone to bring home, it's definitely the Z5. Nothing else can melt my decision when choosing a favorite flagship, Sony's phones are just magnificent. Leave the marketing to them and just let people like me to enjoy it in peace.

The Iphone NEVER increase their endurance, but why? I have compare a lot of smartphones, the endurance Iphone is weaker than Sony, so who is let behind?
The Samsung note5/S6 released earlier for replace their previous version, this is usually they do so, I already know their trick since I purchase the first Samsung smartphone and the last Samsung smartphone.

I was always counting the days when Sony is going to release the Z5 series here in Singapore, and in Sony shops they will ask you to buy Z3+ or M5 since Z5 series won't be available soon, so disappointing. Sony should have not released the overheating Z3+ and could have released the Z5 series much earlier and their mobile business will remain strong financially, now they are left behind the shadows of Iphone6s and Note5/S6 as they are being released earlier. Poor Sony marketing. And yet this comment could never reach Sony's CEO, so sad. I worked on a MNC and we always make sure we have have a good time-to-market otherwise competitors will release early their products.

None of the Z5 series made it to the top 10 daily rating. All excitement is gone. This is due to the poor marketing strategy by Sony. They announced the phone on the 1st week of this month and people are tired of waiting, now came Iphone 6s, Sony's fault is very obvious, their time-to-market is very long. While Apple or Samsung make sure that people won't lose interest by releasing the phone much earlier after announcement.

AnonD-430761, 22 Sep 2015They have made a big deal I know they will surely failing to impress that's for sure coz iphon... moreThe 4.8inch screen to big not comfortable for one hand operate. If you like more Ram and 1080 display then you must choose Z5, the Z5 Compact will keep for one hand operate. Endurance for 3 days is possible, if you using the Ultra Stamina mix and match the Stamina mode, but Iphone Samsung just can 't make it.

Better positions of side buttons
Snap dragon 825 or 830
IP 89 certification
As smooth as iphone
Better viewing angles
Better speakers both for calls and listening music
Gorilla glass 4 or 5 whatever
Battery life of 3 days with moderate usage

Anonymous, 21 Sep 2015battery endurance please, because im planning to buy xperia z3 compact but it keeps me confuse... moreI'd go with the Z3c. The price is better. S801 vs S810 is not noticable with a 720p screen and 2GB RAM. Instead, the S810 will drain the battery much quicker. Besides that, the sides of the Z3c feel much more premium than the sides of the Z5c which feel much more like cheap plastic. And the launch price is $100,- higher. Ridiculous!
The Z5c and the Z3c both support Quickcharge. But both come with a regular adapter in the box. You'd have to buy the UCH10 adapter to gain benefit from the quickcharge. The Z3c has a nice magnetic charge dock available (no opening flaps!) which positions your phone in landscape mode. The Z5c has an open USB port which would position your phone in portrait mode when charging in a dock. I prefer the landscape stance. I have my tablet in the same stance next to it and it looks awesome! The clock turns automatically when you insert it in a dock on android 4.4.4. I believe android 5 finally supports landscape stance on the home screen. It is just so much more fun to watch a movie or anything like that when you can put your phone in a dock.
