Sony Xperia XZ2 Compact Reviewed at Engadget

I’m beginning to like small and compact gadgets … and the Sony Xperia XZ2 compact may just be the compact smartphone I’m after 😛

Smaller smartphones have fallen out of fashion. We now primarily use our handsets for browsing the web, gaming and every other form of entertainment, making a larger screen more desirable in many cases. But this means those looking for a smaller, more pocket-friendly device aren’t spoiled for choice — far from it. But for whatever reason, Sony hasn’t paid much attention to this industry trend and continues to make devices for this neglected demographic.

The latest of these is the new Xperia XZ2 Compact that’s launching alongside the bigger flagship XZ2. In recent history, some of Sony’s Compacts have felt like an afterthought — not only smaller but also much lesser devices. Not this time though. The XZ2 Compact is a flagship in its own right, and one of the best Android phones around.

 

Pros

  • Rare in its small size
  • Easy to use one-handed
  • Great 5-inch display
  • Flagship power without trade-offs

 

Cons

  • All-plastic body may be off-putting for some
  • Average battery life
  • Poor-quality stereo speakers

Summary

The Xperia XZ2 Compact is a high-end flagship in a petite form factor. Sony’s made several compromises on its smaller phones in the past, but not this time. You get all the power and important features of the bigger XZ2 is cute, bijou body.
