    I actually prefer the design of these phones over the newer xperias.dont mind the bezels. The mark 1 5 and 10 are too tall. surely Sony could have made an iPhone 13 mini size like phone even if only a midranger

                      I juz bought it last week in Singapore with SGD 80.
                      The owner take care so well. Outlooks 9.5/10
                      Batery still can last a day and the Snapdragon 835 processor performance so Great(ufs 2.0)!
                      Screen under sun still can watch drama. Camera also good.
                      Good job SONY ! will.buy another SONY phone if I buy next android phone.

                        I used my first xz1c for 3 years and the other around 1 year and half but the 32gb isn't enough, but they are still great compact devices!

                        I posted there because I will buy soon a s10e if I can't find a model like s10e with 120hz under 300€ xd (s22 is too expensive for me but is very similar to the s10e, including size)

                                  Considering the Xperia XZ1 Compact's outdated Android 9 and locked bootloader on the Docomo SO-02K variant, is it still worth buying? I'm concerned about software support, performance, camera quality, and battery life. Your valuable insights are appreciated! Thanks!
