Sony Xperia X Compact Pro Reviews

TechRadar UK‘s review Edit Like Unlike

Sony's X Compact is the best-looking yet in the small range. However, the quest to attract more eyes brought about a few too many sacrifices. Compared to the Z5 Compact, it's a slightly underpowered and fragile offering.

The design of the smartphone has been updated, and now the X Compact features a larger body that the previous version, and also loses the waterproofing. Perhaps this will mean that the smartphones price will drop over time, but currently, this is being introduced with a higher price. We were disappointed that the phone does not feature any weatherproofing or dustproofing capabilities, which is a big step backwards. It's also frustrating that there doesn't seem to have been much of an upgrade in terms of performance - if anything, a slight downgrade.

Sony's Xperia X Compact is a small phone with an excellent camera, but it lacks some creature comforts, like waterproofing and, in the US, a fingerprint sensor.

As far as the competition goes, the X Compact is really in a niche of its own right now. There's the cheaper but similarly sized Samsung Galaxy A3 (2016), which has a 4.7” display, a fancier styling, decent camera, and fine battery life, though considerably less-potent hardware. Looking away from Android, the 4.7” iPhone 6 can be found at a similar price point today, and can actually get you much more phone for the money. In the X Compact's $450-$500 range, however, there is little in Android's small-and-strong category but its predecessor, the Z5 Compact, which happens to be a more powerful handset, at a lower price right now.
