This is my little Godzilla, works near to perfect in Lineage OS 17.1 (android 10), i de-googeled it with MicroG addon, on this OS, as far as i tested, only the brightness handling is some inaccurate.
Camera is not awesome, it has too much megapixel (19) so pixel size is tiny (1,1um) and exposures must be long to take good pictures in medium and low light enviroments, take note guys that if you reduce the pixel number to the half, you have an area per pixel by 2x, and the exposure time also can be reduced to the half to take a picture in the same light conditions. I would say is perfect for me if would have rounded corners (this would add a big big difference to single hand handling), no more than 8mp rear camera and better lens.

    As far as I know it's the only small android phone still able to keep up. And I'm dreading the moment it's gonna die on me and I'll have to switch over either to one of the new phones that fit nowhere or over to Apple as it's the only manufacturer who seems to remember what mobile in mobile phone stands for.
    I'm already having some issues with GPS (loosing signal), microphone (quiet) and Bluetooth (breaking off), even SD card sometimes decides to be unsupported until restart. So the end is near :(

            And here it is. The best Android really compact phone ever in design/ease of use/features/size/weight/build quality, you name it. Which also happened to be the last one. Xz2c is just not the same

                              This is the best phone I've owned so far. Performance and everything else. Well balanced, powerful, resistant and SMALL. Please, Sony, make more like these... at least with similar compact dimensions... This size and performance with a display of its full dimension would be so perfect. I'll be doomed to buy spare parts and bateries until a new compact like this one appears in the market.

                                I hope they make a compact phone again I love my xperia xz1 compact but i was disappointed to the small storage. I wish they make it 512gb. I like the front camera cause it's has a very wide angle and i phone they do it again.

                                    Try the new Sony Xperia 5 IV or Samsung S10e (cheap!) for super small, light phone options
