Sony Xperia Z1 Compact - Review

Smaller, but still mighty

The Xperia Z1 Compact features the same internal specs as its larger counterpart, right down to the impressive 20.7 megapixel camera. The only real difference is the screen, which is 4.3-inches rather than 5-inches and has a resolution of 720 x 1280 pixels rather than 1080 x 1920 pixels.Beautiful to beholdSony has crafted a beautiful looking device with curved edges, a slick aluminium frame, and a form-factor that ensures that the Xperia Z1 Compact fits perfectly in-hand. Ports and slots are kept tucked away behind plastic covers.Peace of mind thanks to Waterproof CapabilitiesLike other Sony devices with the Z moniker, the Z1 Compact is waterproof. Plastic ports cover the microSD, power charger, and SIM slots ensuring that your phone can take a dunk without having to be replaced immediately. The 3.5mm headphone jack, on the other hand, is open so you don’t have to mess around with flaps when you want to listen to something.
