Sony Xperia Z3 Compact Review

  • Good
  • Massive power in an unobtrusive package
  • Great camera
  • Good screen and speakers
  • Dust- and water-resistant
  • Bad
  • Software could use improvement

When Sony released the Xperia Z1 Compact, a non-outsized phone with specs nearly identical to the flagship Xperia Z1, we hoped it would be the beginning of a new trend. Large screens might be nice, but users who prefer something a little easier handle had been left out of the flagship market altogether. Unlike its "mini" counterparts, the Z1 Compact boasted of a top-end processor and camera, with only the screen really scaling down to suit the smaller body.

Sony Xperia Z3 Compact Summary

It seems that you can't buy a high-end phone today unless it has a screen larger than 5 inches. Thankfully there is at least one exception. The Sony Xperia Z3 Compact is just what its name suggests - a compact version of the flagship Xperia Z3. Unlike its peers, Sony hasn't hobbled the Z3 Compact's specifications just because it's a smaller phone. This phone is easy to hold and carry, and it has most of the features and specifications that also make the Xperia Z3 a winner. Sony's Android skin is just as cluttered as ever, but the Z3 Compact makes up for that with a great camera, good screen, and of course loads of power.
