Sony's latest line of Xperia X smartphones finally gave birth to a compact device called the Xperia X Compact -- no surprises there. However, this is not like the previous Z Compact phones wherein they squeezed flagship specs in a smaller package. Design and Construction The X Compact comes in a fairly simple package like most Xperia smartphones. The handset has a 4.6-inch display which is smaller than most smartphones today hence the "Compact" title. As we've mentioned earlier, it has a glossy finish and it continues to the rear unlike the matte finish of the Xperia Z5 Compact. Design-wise, the phone is indeed a compact version of Xperia XZ sans the metallic body. It's light, compact, and easy to pocket which could be what others are looking for. Display and Multimedia While the flagship Xperia XZ has a modest Full HD display, the X Compact features a lower resolution of HD or 720p.
