    SD is also not the past. It's currently dominant standard on the market of home consumers and appliances. CF is leading on professional and industrial markets and XQD as runner-up. SD doesn't even have any competition. All contenders, MMC, MS, SM and xD, are dead now. NM isn't showing signs of life either. Huawei not even trying to push it. It was just a signle day solution to quickly make superprofits as options to top devices, as NM cards are 4 times more expensive as SD.

                Stop living in the past, grandpa. SD cards are a security hole and they slow down the phone. And wireless is the future. Headphone jacks were cool 10 years ago. CDs were cool 20 years ago. And floppy disks 30 years ago. It's time to retire wired headphones as they are too cumbersome to use.

XZ2C has great battery life (but yeah, XZ1C has even better). And they have the same width, but XZ2C is more comfortable to hold and to use due to the rounded back and lack of sharp corners. It also has dual SIM, more storage, a better camera, a better display.

XZ1 compact battery last lot longer time and is more compact. Want to buy, but not available any more. Well, price also was too much. XZ2 compact is bad and would not buy, main reason is bad battery life.
