Excellent mobile!!
It has Snapdragon 835, no lags and issues esp. in heavy usage.
Battery and speakers are perfect.
And I love also the ultra wide on the front camera.

After long research I set for Sony Xperia XZ1 Compact. It's only under 130mm tall phone with good specs that I've found. (I refuse iphones, sorry). I hope smartphone companies will notice the need and come back to smaller phones soon.

I'd love to see a new Xperia with a powerhouse Snapdragon processor, a 16:9 5-inch screen AND the 72.3% screen-to-body ratio of the GalaxyS4! Add a memory card slot, a headphone jack, and a removable battery! Just build a new Xperia ZR with these specs! It was IP58 WATER-RESISTANT, had a docking station with only battery charging contacts (not the damaging-prone micro-USB port) and had an articulating antenna too! I still have mine!

However, they are kind enough to continue providing support with instructions to build Android 11 for the XZ1 Compact and other maintained legacy devices on their Developer World Open Devices Portal.

I am still using this phone and I wish if Sony would make another compact flagship with a good battery life, earphone jack, good camera and water resistance.

Why did Sony only stop providing software updates after one major update ? From Android 8.0 to Android 9.0 only ? They could have at least given us Android 10, couldn't they?

I have been using sony xperia xz1 compact for three years now and what a phone! Truly remarkable! No issues at all. And it was been used hard, mostly streaming youtube, using navigation, various apps and it is still going strong. I had z1c before but that had poor camera, however this one so much better. I still get 5 hours of wifi surfing after all those years. Great size for pocket, fast and solid as rock. Well done sony!

Great phone. Have had it for 3 years now. Build quality and reliability far superior to the Z1c I had before. Only downside might be the sharp edges. But if you have some kind of case that's not an issue.

Eldamri, 23 Jan 2021Hi Guys is this phone still viable as daily driver in 2021?... moreDon't under estimate the Samsung S10e, whilst it's not much smaller over the standard S10 it's a total different beast in your hand and really feels compact, a brilliant little Flagship phone from Samsung and sadly, like the XZ1C, probably the last of the Compacts from the likes of Samsung.
I still have my XZ1C but sadly had to stop using it as I really did need a Dual SIM, which Sony never made
in this model dispite it did have a name G8442 but was never produced, hence where the S10e Duos came in.
Another good handset from a couple of years back is the Nokia 8 Sirocco, another Flagship limited edition in a compact size just a tad bigger the the ZX1C, it's a bit of a Marmite Flavour phone but fits well in one hand once you get used to it, Nokia really did miss a trick by not calling this phone a Compact.
I've started using 5G in my area now, so again was on the hunt for a 5G Dual SIM Compact, near impossible task if I'm honest, but currently using the Huawei P40, not the P40 lite, Pro or Pro+ just the P40, good spec phone with a 6.1 screen and due the the good screen to body ratio again fits well in one hand, quiet a nice phone if I'm honest but then you've got the lack of Google Services issue, you can kinda get around this using Dual Space Apps but it's never going to be a proper Certified Google Device , so Security could be at Risk.

Just got an XZ1 Compact from eBay. My third Sony Compact (previously Z1C, Z5C which I broke changing the battery). Got the XZ1C after trying a paving slab called Huawei P20 Pro for two weeks but couldn't hack it (or bend over when in my pocket).
The XZ1C is the sweet spot for me. More RAM than Z5C, faster and still has the 3.5mm socket. Shame the attachment point for a strap went though. I think the XZ1C went under the radar - according to gsmarena it was only out for 6 months before being replaced by the XZ2C and I only discovered it by accident. It is however smaller and thinner than the XZ2C and ask me if I care that it is 'only' 1280x720. I only just got a TV that was better than that...
