Nowhere sells this phone brand new now except dodgy Far Eastern imports. The only option is to go for the inferior X Compact. Has a better camera and 1GB more RAM ....... and that's it. X Compact is not even IP68 certified so that Z5 Compact was the last true mini flagship. Shame it's not longer available.

Check your average memory usage in settings, I bet it is near full constantly ~1.8GB. This phone only has 2GB of memory which is borderline these days on Android 7. But cutting down on the junk will make it a lot faster again, get it down to 1.4-1.5GB.

In some ways a great phone v. good front camera photo/video quality, but grinds to a halt in memory and storage and struggles to mount SD cards at times too.
It also gets very hot and although charges quickly does loose charge quickly too.

I have a Z5 compact for last 18 months. Just a pleasure to own and use it! Has had no issues and use the camera a lot. Android upgrades were also easy. All-in-all probably the best smart phone I ever had.

I do have a Sony Xperia z5 compact for 2 years.
For 2 months I have issues with this phone. He s overheating, just browsing.. And works slowly sometimes.
It is a shame for this powerful spec's.
Maybe is the last version of Android, I don't know but I hope they fixed...

I already got the Nougat 7.1.1 update (32.4.A.0.160) and it is working smoot and fine. I really love the specification of this Z5 compact. Not always a powerful phone has to be bible size.

For me personally, I don't want a high-end phone with large dimensions, the Xperia Z5 Compact fits easily in my pocket, it's with very good camera quality and it's a compact high-end gear phone. Nice!

MrGrumpy, 28 Jun 2017The X Compact is not waterproof, has an ugly plastic shell ... moreIts based on ur opinion. If u want better performance get XPERIA X COMPACT. If u need waterproofing, get XPERIA Z5

- a faster waterproof phone that looks / feels great and can make you toast when it warms up
- an uglier phone that's not waterproof, doesn't feel as good but has a better battery life and an extra 1GB RAM

This phone definately is waterproof. Although I would not reccomend doing it, I once took this phone by accident down to 20m for 45 mins, still works fine.

AnonD-679159, 22 Jun 2017worth if I upgrade my z3c to z5c?Buy XPERIA X COMPACT is more worth it. This XPERIA Z5 COMPACT overheats because of the chipset so the newer one doesn't heat up like this. Plus the newer one have an extra 1GB of RAM, which equals to 3GB RAM. It is much more snappier and smoother than this phone.
