X compact practically murders the Z5 compact in overall usage, but it is really sad to see Sony remove water resistance on the newer compact. 4k is not really deal breaker for me, but water resistance is what made the Compact line so endearing!
I agree. Hate to see water proof go away...but I didn't like the way the speakers sounded with the z5c because of it. It was muffled. Especially when wet. It's not a deal breaker for me on the X. Performance is a great step up as it should be
I watched a video of some cunt swimming with one for 15 minutes. It lived, but there was some moisture in the camera. But he claimed all worked perfectly when it dried...
the funny thing is I was watching this in the shower on my z5c and the sound muffled seconds after reading this comment...price you pay for washing your phone I guess?
Wow surprised that the X compact is better the expected in comparison to the Z5 compact. I will miss the waterproofing. Still no wireless charging in either phone :(. Would like a iPhone SE vs Xperia X Compact comparison.
I have one X Compact, and the phone is awesome! I came from a Huawei P9 Lite (and I miss some EMUI features) but the the Sony is amazing. I can do like 5/6hours screen with 2:30/3hours playing games... It's really good.
Yeah, trust this guy, that's exactly what happened to my X compact, got slight scratches on the back the 2nd day i got it, after being put on a wooden table. That's how resistant the glossy plastic is!
Both still great phones, and both have great FM radios, Which save a ton of battery. Can get either for less than £100 second hand now, great buys if you get a good one.
hello. do you think the screen on the x compact has better colors than the z5 compact? i think the z5 compact looks kinda washed out now as a side note: z5c was already thick enough, but they made the x compact even thicker. it's disgusting
Good point. And what's 1 or 2 seconds longer when launching an app, anyway? How do those large games actually play on Compact vs Z5c, that's the question.
Dave Satay Exactly, for example, a PC that has a beefy GPU and CPU but a ten year old hard drive will take forever to boot the game but it will run it really well when it's open, and the reverse is true for a crappy PC with a brand spanking new SSD.
This made the choice between the XC and Z5C super clear to me. I would have thought the flagship CPU in the Z5 would be better, but this proved that wrong nicely. As for 4K recording.. I find that on smartphones to be nothing more than a gimmick anyways.
is the x compact faster because of more ram? is the z5 compact a brand new out of the box piece? if it isnt and it has been used then can that be the reason for it to be slower than the x compact? is 2gb ram on the z5c sufficient for many calls, videos, neflix, youtube, msging, camera, photo, many apps, but not much gaming? isnt the processor on z5c much better than that on the xc? which would be a better bet if i assume the sd810 is better, so 2gb and 810 on z5c or the other one?
X compact fast, stable. Can run pubg with hdr and extreme set well, not like SD 820 can't run pubg well throttling cause fast so fast 😕😕😕😕 I have x performance and x compact , x compact win every aspect except camera and video
is it right sir? i have problem to chose betwen X compact and X performance right now... i like gaming and sometimes i use camera for some simple job so i need good camera too. do you think i should use Xcompact or Xperformance?
last year i bought the z3 .....and now in 2017 my phone has been sent to the service 2 timess...so i would like to upgrade to z5c or xc ...but i don t really know which one to choose ......anyone who can help me ?
i think u should get x compact because the phone has a future unlike the z5c, and sd650 is way better than sd810 except gpu. and x compact can even get android 8 😉
great video. Could you do a battery comparison between the Z3 compact and the new X compact? in my view the Z3 compact has the best battery life. I used to get three four days easy when it was new/two days with intensive usage. thanks in advance...
captain here: the reason is because of the snapdragon 810's overheated problem so Sony has to slow down the z5 compact to reduce the heat, smapdrahon 650 doesn't has the same problem so it can run at 100%
So it can overheat and drain the battery way too fast..? No thanks. The 650 is a perfect fit for a small phone like that. And don't forget.. the screen is 720p only, you absolutely don't need a 820. It's all about optimization and Sony does a great job in that. People don't seem to realize that and just want high numbers.
Dude, it's the latest MM on the Z5C. I know, beacuse I own and use one right now! However, it's not optimized at all. All the snappiness you see on X Compact is due to Sony putting some real elbow grease optimizing the firmware on X Compact. However we, Z5C users, have never seen that. Although it was a flagship phone in its time, I've never felt that I was using a premium device in terms of the UI and optimization of the firmware. In fact I've just filed a complaint on Sony for this. Hundreds of pounds spent on a device which has flagship specs but behaves like a mid range. Such a shame. Shame on you Sony!
I knew the new Snapdragon CPU (X Compact) is faster than the 810 in Z5 Compact ! Just a bit sad that the X is more bigger than the Z5 Compact but Oh well, maybe next year it's thinner 😆
where stabilizing? why didn't walk, didn't take several steps? in many videos where you show shooting of the camera, your advance very much isn't enough the item of page.
Can someone please tell me why Sony haven't caught on about megapixels yet? Apple have been saying more megapixels = worse (everything else) since the iPhone 4, now Android OEMs have finally cottoned on, except Sony. What gives?
X got 650 snapdragon Z5 better but(810) still thanks for review becasue better GPU try games GFX BENCH X cons GPU no 4K no water proff Z5 cons : low RAM CPU OPTIMIZATION
Tech Trinkets, low light is still a joke in comparison to the rivals! Criticism is loud and clear but sony mobile never learns! They never really care to address their infamous weaknesses! Year after year after year since they took over SE. Ignorant fools. An insult to the sony brand.
i know right? xD! the z compact line were so cool and nice looking. but now...so far the best small phone besides the iphone is the z3 compact in the green version. an Stuning looking device.
X compact practically murders the Z5 compact in overall usage, but it is really sad to see Sony remove water resistance on the newer compact. 4k is not really deal breaker for me, but water resistance is what made the Compact line so endearing!

water resistance usually means worse-sounding speakers. Most adults never get their phones wet, so its not a problem.

It turns out the X compact is a gem hidden in an ugly package
I think it looks great. I love how it's black and blue at the same time
z5c looks way better, plus glossy plastic on X Compact is a no-no, it'll get scratched on the second day.
Yeah, trust this guy, that's exactly what happened to my X compact, got slight scratches on the back the 2nd day i got it, after being put on a wooden table. That's how resistant the glossy plastic is!
The plastic is grrat; very durable
Thanks man. Nice comparison. You helped me to choose!
That display has been improved a lot.
Nice👍,great comparison.
No probs
Edimax Alan ur3z6
Thank you! I would be very grateful if you would have added to this video comparison of the speakers!
wow, did not expect that. thanks for the video. Screen looks better on X compact, too :O
im watching on my z5c. it is a great phone.. anyway xc is not available in my country..
I was surprised how badly the Z5 Compact did. I expected they would be really close.
They were really close. What video did you watch?
isn't the x compact featuring a crappier CPU? how the hell is it doing better?!
Nice one Tech Trinkets, love your videos.
Cheers
excellent video mate I am a Sony fan still using z3 compact and its great may update next year
Both still great phones, and both have great FM radios, Which save a ton of battery. Can get either for less than £100 second hand now, great buys if you get a good one.
love the review. good work done :)
How many phones do you own ? Probably in the hundreds.
Hey have u still got these phones? Updated both to Nougat 7.0? Which is more better in overall performance, camera, app loading & battery life?
Yes
Tech Trinkets So which one would u get?
I'm also curious about this
Thx for sharing!
What is the front camera look like of the X compact?
Average
is sony xperia x compact have slow motion video option
great video. The X compact is a little bit faster because it has 3 gb ram while the z5 compact has 2 gb ram
hello. do you think the screen on the x compact has better colors than the z5 compact? i think the z5 compact looks kinda washed out now
as a side note: z5c was already thick enough, but they made the x compact even thicker. it's disgusting
This isn't really a processor speed test. It's a storage speed test.
Good point. And what's 1 or 2 seconds longer when launching an app, anyway? How do those large games actually play on Compact vs Z5c, that's the question.
Dave Satay Exactly, for example, a PC that has a beefy GPU and CPU but a ten year old hard drive will take forever to boot the game but it will run it really well when it's open, and the reverse is true for a crappy PC with a brand spanking new SSD.
why would anyone play game on mobile? buy a pc or PlayStation
This made the choice between the XC and Z5C super clear to me. I would have thought the flagship CPU in the Z5 would be better, but this proved that wrong nicely. As for 4K recording.. I find that on smartphones to be nothing more than a gimmick anyways.
vs z3 compact plsssss
Z3C is still more superior than the XC if we talk raw processing power and waterproof capability.
waterproof is lols tbh....
***** the phone has plastic rubber edges... And flaps to cover the ports. Nice waterproofing.
is the x compact faster because of more ram?
is the z5 compact a brand new out of the box piece? if it isnt and it has been used then can that be the reason for it to be slower than the x compact?
is 2gb ram on the z5c sufficient for many calls, videos, neflix, youtube, msging, camera, photo, many apps, but not much gaming?
isnt the processor on z5c much better than that on the xc?
which would be a better bet if i assume the sd810 is better, so 2gb and 810 on z5c or the other one?
the X compact a bit faster i think because it has 1GB extra ram.. appart from that Z5 Compact is the best
nido SD650 > SD810
Great job dude
which one do you think the best(worth the money)? I wish sony should've made the x compact waterproof.
Very tempted to grab a X Compact. Too bad it isn't being sold at my country ATM. :(
gave us more on camera comparisons
front/rear,
stills/videos,
2K,
camera application differences and more.....
Hi could you tell me if the X compact has a fm radio please?
may i ask for ur opinion?z5 compact better or x compact better?
maybe a soda test on X Compact?
So nice. I but one X Compact, love the size and perfect for calling og text. :)
Wow, multitasking in x compact is a beast.
X compact fast, stable. Can run pubg with hdr and extreme set well, not like SD 820 can't run pubg well throttling cause fast so fast 😕😕😕😕 I have x performance and x compact , x compact win every aspect except camera and video
Yes snap 650 is batter
is it right sir? i have problem to chose betwen X compact and X performance right now... i like gaming and sometimes i use camera for some simple job so i need good camera too. do you think i should use Xcompact or Xperformance?
Do you think, that the Sony xperia Z5 compact will get with a new update to android 7 the Lockscreen of the X line? Nice movie;)
last year i bought the z3 .....and now in 2017 my phone has been sent to the service 2 timess...so i would like to upgrade to z5c or xc ...but i don t really know which one to choose ......anyone who can help me ?
i think u should get x compact because the phone has a future unlike the z5c, and sd650 is way better than sd810 except gpu. and x compact can even get android 8 😉
X Compact's secreen seems a bit yellowish to me?
great video. Could you do a battery comparison between the Z3 compact and the new X compact?
in my view the Z3 compact has the best battery life. I used to get three four days easy when it was new/two days with intensive usage.
thanks in advance...
Now throw both of them in the fish bowl and see who drowns and dies first ;)
captain here: the reason is because of the snapdragon 810's overheated problem so Sony has to slow down the z5 compact to reduce the heat, smapdrahon 650 doesn't has the same problem so it can run at 100%
where better, iphone 5s or xperia x compact ? thanks
Haha you serious?
X compact better every time!
🙂
i wish X compact has Snap820
So it can overheat and drain the battery way too fast..? No thanks. The 650 is a perfect fit for a small phone like that. And don't forget.. the screen is 720p only, you absolutely don't need a 820. It's all about optimization and Sony does a great job in that. People don't seem to realize that and just want high numbers.
but GPU 650
heyy does xperia x compact have water resistant?
Not officially. We'll have to wait for reviews to see how resistant it is.
x compact vs p9 lite?
where is marshmallow on z5c??? wtf do right the comparison
Dude, it's the latest MM on the Z5C. I know, beacuse I own and use one right now! However, it's not optimized at all. All the snappiness you see on X Compact is due to Sony putting some real elbow grease optimizing the firmware on X Compact. However we, Z5C users, have never seen that.

REally? i thought that wasn't marshmallow because i know that they remove small apps...
Yeah, removed it only for the X line, the Zx line on MM still has the small apps.
QSD650 is pretty awesome
Hi appears when xperia z6? please
There's no Z6.
Do you think Xperia X is better than Z5? In U.S Xperia X is $429 and Z5 Is $450
Yoko Kurama although it contains sd810, z5 is better in overall
I knew the new Snapdragon CPU (X Compact) is faster than the 810 in Z5 Compact ! Just a bit sad that the X is more bigger than the Z5 Compact but Oh well, maybe next year it's thinner 😆
shouldnt you be walking to test the image stabilisation?
you forgot to make the WiFi speed test in this vedio
Ikr
yes i like to see internet speed test
z5 win for sure
where stabilizing? why didn't walk, didn't take several steps?
in many videos where you show shooting of the camera, your advance very much isn't enough the item of page.
It was raining so he probably didn't wanna get wet and the X compact is no longer waterproof.
That's a bad excuse for being lazy.
1. Do it inside
2. Wait a day
sony xperia x compact camera video 4k and fingerprint yes or no
fingerprint yes-4k no
Can someone please tell me why Sony haven't caught on about megapixels yet? Apple have been saying more megapixels = worse (everything else) since the iPhone 4, now Android OEMs have finally cottoned on, except Sony. What gives?
I love X Compact and its design,but why its plastic?
seems that x compact better than z5 compact although x compact uses S625 processor
X got 650 snapdragon Z5 better but(810) still thanks for review becasue better GPU try games GFX BENCH
X cons GPU no 4K no water proff
Z5 cons : low RAM CPU OPTIMIZATION
Thanks
Hi Any one of his voice high and clear ، and thank you very much
Compare it to the xperia X :)
thank u
X Compact game test pls!
Perhaps its not the cpu why the x compact is faster. Maybe its the extra gig of ram?
Yes, I think that is it! I was wondering too why X compact did better here and I think you have a point. Ram can make a big difference in devices.
i'll take the plastic xperia x compact over z5 compact that has frosty glass back that'll crack up on your pocket anytime just like z3 compact.
x compact vs note 7 o s7 thx
Tech Trinkets, low light is still a joke in comparison to the rivals! Criticism is loud and clear but sony mobile never learns! They never really care to address their infamous weaknesses! Year after year after year since they took over SE. Ignorant fools. An insult to the sony brand.
I feel your pain
true
The speed of opening apps goes to the 3 Gigs of RAM that wins over 2 Gigs every time. It has little to do with processing power.
Z1 Compact vs XZ1 Compact
Do with sony xperia xz pls
X compact got Screen better than Z5C
but x compact has no water proof
compare it with z3c
unfair z5c isn't on marshmallow...
+Charge Final Impact there is no small apps on marshmallow
There is, I'm telling this as a Z5C user, running the latest firmware...
+savvasr10 on older sony models running marshmallow do have small app a
z3 compact best compact
First..... Hey im first..... Etc...... Whats wrong with you people?
Ясно, пойду посру
wow
water testtt!
👍👍👍👍
I mean external speakers
Great first
Sony win
x compact is no doubt the ugliest phone of 2016
i know right? xD! the z compact line were so cool and nice looking. but now...so far the best small phone besides the iphone is the z3 compact in the green version. an Stuning looking device.
Hmmm the G5 and the moto z makes good competence but still i agree.
definitely
Andres Izarra Yeah! I have the green one
ROURKE idk why sony made the phone look like a tv remote plus the whole thing just looks cheap.... I wouldn't recommend this phone to anyone
