  1. What a piece of junk this so called "smartphone" is… after 1 year of countless updates the touch screen is still problematic(production fail). The battery doesn't last 1day of normal use… It is overheating while playing games, filming in 4k, using skype etc. The glass gets scratched really really easy. Can't use the headphones anymore because the usb port is defective(usb auto-detection failed errors)I've had only issues with it. And i thought the z5 compact was a bad phone, no more Sony for me ever again!

  2. Its not waterproof at all. Rain will kill it

    My phone died after beeing in my pocket during rain. Yes I was soaked there was a water in my pocket but it should be waterproof up to 1m under water (IP68). Warranty service said its not repariable under warranty conditions. Well I lost loads of money dont waste yours and DO NOT BUY A SONY MOBILE PHONE!!!

  3. I like the rear except for its round shape. Although it makes the phone comfortable to hold it makes it look fat and old. I also would have preferred the top and bottom bezels to be curved just to give it that flagship feel.

  4. This is not a good review at all. The reviewer makes arbitrary comments such as he did on the battery life of the phone. It is in fact not a review just an opinion piece.

  5. I would like to know if you should let your new Xperia xz2 sony unload up to 5% before searching normally up to 100%. I would like to have an idea since I just bought one. Thank you for answering me

  6. I own the Sony Xperia XZ2 compact green version. I love the built of this Sony. It's not cheap built. It's firm and solid in your hands. It has a nice weight to it. And the size is perfect. Easy to hold. So there aren't negative thinks to speak of. Very happy with it.

  7. If anyone wants my take on this phone, video is on my channel. I like the idea but it's rather boringly executed. I talk about this. It's great that we have an option for small and nice phones but why is this the only one?? Frustrating.

  8. What is your obsession with glass backs? They are prone to cracking and breaks and at some point, you will slap a case or a cover over it anyway… Plastic lasts longer and also is less slippery …
    You have also missed out the Xperia goodies like Xperia Actions, Xperia Tips which are tucked inside

  9. I`m comparing Sony Xperia XA2 and Sony Xperia XZ2 Compact. Battery is XA2 3300 mAh (endurance 92) hours and XZ2 Compact 2870 mAh (endurance 88 hours). Is the difference really only 4 hours between those two?

  10. Honestly, I am fine with the plastic feel and small size. Not everyone is out to show off their phones. I like that it is a power house steallthy small and discrete mini flagship for 2018.

  11. Each review of this phone they critisize the materials but if they paid attention to the compact community they would know we asked for this. Most of us hatted the thines and the glass back.

  12. Im hearing reports that the phone's sd card is limited to 15mbps write speed. Unacceptable, you will not be able to record 4k with that, especially not HDR 4k

  13. Its a bit outrageous to say this phone can store "terabytes" when in reality, you'd be in the bleeding edge to have 512gb sd + 64gb internal

  14. I love the Sony phones… so glad they are still making smaller devices; I hate those giant phones. Maybe I'll wait until next gen when they hopefully add wireless charging and bring back the 3.5mm jack.

  15. Sony’s compacts have always felt like premium devices. I don’t get how they fucked the design of this up. I mean come on Sony!!!

  16. Its a great device, however it gets quickly very hot on normal climate temperatures, it tends to slip of the hands , no appropriate casing from Sony …Sony customer support failed to address the overheating problems despite repeated emails at my end .
