[@mangeshmthengadi9756]

XZ1 compact looks like a premium phone XZ2 compact looks like a cheap Chinese rip off. There was no need to change design they could have kept the design of compact model same

[@PhoneBattles]

I actually like the design of XZ2C more than XZ1C, but yeah they can definitely improve it for the XZ3C. needs to look more premium

[@xcrrushx6147]

Mangesh Mthengadi all true

[@standupray]

I agree, looks like it was in the microwave and the backside was blown up. To bad that the 1 has 32gb

[@omar-fy7cr]

I totally agree I don't like the new one

[@user-nk6ty8nr1k]

XZ2 was destroyed the Sony’s design signature.

[@xcrrushx6147]

XZ1 compact is my favourite phone ever, think its the best phone, looks wise, by far

[@xcrrushx6147]

@MR ALLEN GAMING jeez man that's 3 yrs ago, things move on

[@craigcurtice3642]

Dude I love how you do the speed test actual speed test and as you do more RAM is used so then you can see which one manages ram better over time .love your videos love your videos love your videos

[@brandonlennon2209]

XZ2 compact is better because of it's new. But XZ1 Compact design is nicer.

[@PhoneBattles]

In person I like the XZ2 compact design more because it's more comfortable and the curved back makes it feel smaller than the XZ1 compact, but that's just my personal preference. I know a lot of people really liked Sony's unique design

[@johnsonx2426]

Brandon Lennon xz1 design is about look, xz2 way more practical

[@kirbyswarp]

Xz2 is a hideous generic piece of shit.

[@_Digitalguy]

I dislike XZ1 design, much prefer the rounded corners of the XZ2

[@mrsocrates2211]

If only they combine xz2 front design and xz1 back design, that would've been dope.

[@langdeezy4681]

The square look is awesome! Why do people keep saying it looks dated?!

[@jonasoskinis7464]

I love my XZ1, i loove that fingerprint scanner on side, and of course the hearing aid jack is necessary

[@tester12z]

Great comparative review thanks...sticking with my XZ1 for sure.

[@shogunero3.6]

Xz1 compact is the last of the small size phones. And the best ever made.

[@MrMaxi8810]

Dokładnie nadal używam tego telefonu i tu już 6 rok bez żadnych awarii tylko bateria już nie trzyma całego dnia niestety

[@user-cq5sn5hq4m]

Thanks a lot! Nice review. These compact versions, among today's "shovel-type" huge smartphones are so pretty and comfortable, i like them.

[@nikulasa7456]

This is what iv'e been waiting for!

[@dr.strange6458]

The XZ2 Compact also works well as a widget spinner while on a table!

[@britaddict]

Thank you for the video. It's a hard choice. The xz2 is obviously better with the camera and with games but the lack of headphone jack, higher price, almost no difference in screen display quality/regular app usage, and poor design means that the xz1 wins for me.

[@nisam1637]

Xz1 compact nice to handle

[@LiLgOoDrAt]

LMFAAAOOO, I read this comment before I saw the part and didnt understand it . then the music started and fingers went into action. I was rollin.

[@DanLo-tube]

I got the XZ1 Compact for 350 € (France).. meanwhile the XZ2 is at 550 €... so nope sorry but those really small enhancements don't worth the 200€ up + bigger phone and NO jack ! ^^

[@tuomasheikkinen9251]

Dan Lo Man I also got the XZ1 compact for 350€. This phone is a beast for a price like that. 😁

[@hanekawayui5514]

Fast forward to 2021 the xz1c is better than the xz2c. Have both, speed have almost no diff, same with back camera, screen are identical in quality just diff in size, xz1c battery last looooonger, has a 3.5mm jack, wide front cam and better form factor imo. Ps xz2 also heats a lot faster than xz1c

[@Electronaut76]

2 Questions for the xz1C here: 1. Can pointy edges be softened using a case? Dont wanna wreck my pockets :-) 2. Read about camera issues due to "bending" the pic edges etc. or fish eye effect? Since i use to scan documents with my phone. Is it still possible with good quality though?

[@FestivaLagoon]

I don't know why, something inside me is still leaning towards the xz1 compact. Who would even call 5 inch as compact.

[@JAYRAY00]

shubham yadav - Who would call the thickest smartphone on the market "Compact"

[@sexyscientist]

JayRay00 Okay. Sony is marketing it's small screen premium devices as compact, which XZ1 compact is. Also, technically speaking, compaction is a volumetric phenomenon. And indeed, XZ1C has less volume than XZ2C.

[@sexyscientist]

shybham yadav Not me. According to me, XZ1 compact was the last warrier for the small screen users. There's no hope now.

[@JAYRAY00]

@@sexyscientist that's why I bought it instead of the Xz2 Compact

[@sexyscientist]

@@JAYRAY00 Great. I am still very interested in buying it (even after 2 years of it's release). Hoping the prices to $320/250 euros this cyber monday.

[@craigcurtice3642]

Also I'm a big fan of the iconic Square pointy tip sides of the Sony phones so I don't like the rounded Samsung look at edges of the other one

[@DorianNuellari]

great look, but with time it has opened holes in more than one pair of my pants, lol

[@Suresh7626]

XZ2 is fast. But Xz1 flies because of 835+720p display. Nice video again.

[@Schmidteren]

Plus it's the 11th longest lasting android phone made.

[@orngfuzz]

Is it possible to get the finger print XZ1C in US? And if so, will it work with AT&T?

[@sayantansamanta8319]

Nice video by you and when you make a speaker comparison please place the phones on horizontal position not vertical. Thanks

[@rus1an09]

i choose XZ1. design of xz2 like a soap

[@melvinmejia8531]

Hahaha it's true

[@jhey2012]

But rhe preformance of xz2 compact is better

[@duroextreme]

the audio quality of xz1 is impressive!

[@truetech4158]

Zx1 here. Run a iRig guitar connector with the dual headphone/microphone jack. Has more stability sitting on a flat surface that the rounded casing. It's easier to activate the fingerscanner in a stand or attached to a dashmount etc. The audio can be tuned to have a brighter tone setting so, same grade of micro speakers. The smaller platform lets it fit into pockets easier. Smaller screen eats less batter in 2 ways, 1 being smaller area to luminate, and the lower resolution uses less power, therefore probably lasts the same per charge as the other phone that has a slightly faster processor. I'd like to see sony put more effort into creating a lot of features to adjust for the 3d scanning feature, or even to create an addon case that adds further 3d scanning definition, doubling its resolution for scans. I got it to do basic scans plus being a portable everything else device. Have done a few 3d prints from the scanning feature. Sony should boost the mobile editing abilities too for new scans with a few extra features such as push/pull within a zoom, brush features, font importing features, image importing features that can allow for selections of how to trace images for 3d raised surfaces for printing. If enough people ask sony for that, they might do it.

[@jrich2955]

Can u do battery drain test between the two?

[@arnold_gamer]

4:27 look at the video thumbnail on the left LOL

[@Karl0sTheInfinite]

That's a pity there is no FM transmitter in both models, but jack 3,5 can help to make decision.

[@GPutraJayawardana]

im still using xperia x compact till now from 2017... i still doesnt think need to change to other phone its still perfect working for beside me on duty

[@meartsy9117]

Just bought one. Second hand. Earphone jack not working. The rest just fine.. Love this phone

[@RFRM89]

I prefer the old design with 16:9 screen and a headphone jack. The best design imo is the one from the z3+ in gold especially.

[@PhoneBattles]

Z3+ is a really beautiful looking phone. very thin too. they took a step back with the designs for Z5/XZ/XZ1/XZ2. main issue with Z3+ though is it lacked a headphone jack

[@RFRM89]

Phone Battles i think the same about the design but the z3+ has a headphone jack the problem about it was the sd810 although i didn't experience problems during gaming it did get hot. To me it's like an alfa romeo. It's like a love/hate relationship XD

[@RFRM89]

Phone Battles oh forgot to say it's the z4 in some countries maybe in your country the z3+ is a different device

[@Zentrify]

rm my favourites are xz, xzs, xz1 compact and xz premium, for some reason i just kinda don't like the xz1 design as much

[@fidah2525]

I want to move from the one plus 5t to the xz2 compact because I like the size of the phone. The only thing holding me back is that I have never owned an xperia and I also have read that the ips lcd screen on sony is not as bright and colourful as amoled. Second this is the battery I want to see battery tests but there are no reviews on this thing hardly. Does it charge fast and does it last long?

[@nicocenizal6166]

I have a Oneplus 5t and the XZ2C. The XZ2C is definitely brighter, and easier to use in direct sunlight. The audio is also a plus. The battery charges fast 20 to 80 in 30 mins (I don't let it fully drain) and lasts much longer than what the capacity should.

[@MegaKauti]

I think we need to start a kickstarter campaign for sony to give us a newer COMAPCT phone with SD855 n updated specs with the design of the brick.

[@jrich2955]

How about the battery performace between the two?

[@hardtarget9969]

XZ1 with beloved Headphone jack = Winner 🥇

[@xPandamon]

XZ1C is better overall. Both got a few weaknesses but XZ1C is more unique and it feels much better for me.

[@sharkvoltz]

does the compact version worth to watch movies or playing games? for the screen like that, or its too small

[@maverick8228]

I playing games on my pc and 27 " monitor, compact phones are great, you can put them in to your pocket and looks nice and stylish, and when you calling from them you don't look like a moroon with your 8 " tablet stick in to your head. 4,6" maximum 5 " thats the sweet spot for smartphones in my opinion :)

[@martingrady7654]

2020 in May I have the X1 but the 32gb is full to 98% I just can't keep going deleting everything, but the phone is a perfect size and more than fast enough, so now I have to go the toe X2 for the 64gb. and that is the only reason I am changing. I would maybe go for a different make of phone, but the compacts and the power of the Sony phones mean I will stick with them, if they did an update on the X2 being a compact with the power, I would buy it.

[@saysbadman]

Xz1 compact all day. The headphone delete sours the more expensive incremental improvement. Xz2 had a higher antutu, but 1080p will be harder to drive vs 720p. Hopefully i can soon snag an xz1 compact as cheap as an lg g5 now that the xz2 compact is out!

[@Shaxigaming]

The XZ2 is better, but I don't know if it's 250€ more better.

[@vaughnhollund5316]

More like "the only modern "compact" smartphones. Why do people "just buy a phablet 'cause the cool guy has one"? People are mostly just sheep and "technologicly poor people" buy big ass shit from companies like Motorola, Wileyfox and Wiko just because they get this 6" phone that looks cool although it has android 5 or 6, SD420 or similar (chinese) crapass SOC, 1.5-2GB RAM and 8-16GB storage for ~$150 Samsung, huawei and the like pushing out 6" $800(+) phones aren't helping either.

I want to upgrade my Z5c but unfortunately, no matter how lightning fast and better ZX2/3 might be.. the phone shape is just not something I want to hold and admire. The block shape is beautiful and sharp looking.. Unfortunately Sony has to cope with the trend to sell well. Its for the better, I guess, to keep them alive at some point.
