1. final fantasy 9 at 2:13?

2. I love the size and design.. wanna have this

3. Who are only watching this because you have the phone 🙂

4. Please compare this to xz2 compact

5. Is there any phone with "twilight pink" color other than this ?

6. We all love santa gold!

7. im seriously considering the xz1 compact. but the double tap to wake feature is gone right? Anyone know whether the 4G LTE network will work in Canada or China? im buying the phone in China but moving to Canada in the future

8. its very good phone

9. Why doesn't anyone mention the cumbersome gallery? It's very unintuitive, with the default screen always changing from what you left it on last (chronological vs albums), random "highlighted" photos cycling at the top of the screen, and the worst thing: it takes like 9 steps to crop a photo. There's no crop in the gallery so you have to launch an editor each time, and you can't set a default, so you have to select your editing app every time you want to crop one simple photo for social media.
   Third party galleries are much better but Sony forces cropped photos into a separate album on ALL third party galleries. You have to exit the current album to search for the photo you just cropped/edited.
   And there's no way to make any third party gallery default, anyway. You will always be brought to Sony's half-assed one if you go from the camera app.

10. 32gb of storage is too little?! I remember when my Samsung Galaxy Trend+ had 4 gigs of onboard storage…

11. This is the only version that will work with cdma but its too small

12. Dayum it's so cute

13. i love this phone😭😭😭😭😭😭😭 !!!!!! sony made me fall in love with their model😭

14. A lot of reviews say the camera's low light performance isn't quite as good as current flagships. How does the camera stand up against something like an iPhone SE? (My current phone.)

15. I bought this because it reminds me a phone and not some tablet.

16. sony make phone tiny bit more snaller

17. Allmost flagship???? lol… What is there missing for it to be a flagship??

18. Thanks for the review. I will be picking up mine tomorrow. TBH considering the price difference between the compact and the xz1 you can easily pick up a 64gb micro SD to fill that gap without touching the price of the xz1, come closer to the xz1 price range and you can have 200gb+ micro sd.

19. Does it has fm radio or not? I did not get it.thanks

20. still using the term "future proof" ??? what does that mean ?

21. YOU JUST CHANGED MY MIND ON IPHONE 6SSS OR SONY

22. I'm good with my 16gb phone so this would not be a problem.

23. This phone is so awesome to hold. Weight is zero compared to other heavy devices.
    Also it doesnt fill up your pocket. With that being said, of course there are better phones on the market for the same price. But they are huge. Why do the cheapest phones always have a 5,5 inch display? Cause they're easier to build.

24. Wow! I just replaced my iPhone SE with this phone! It's amazinggggggggg. Battery, display, zippy, SD card, water proof, dual front speakers, incredible in hand feel and simplicity it with Oreo

25. how much will this be in Canada? probably overpriced as usual with Sony phones?

26. Does it have an LED notification light?

27. Is xperia xz1 compact has better battery life than galaxy s8?

28. Türkiye ye gelir mi

29. ALMOST flagship ?! :)) lol !

30. I'm just wondering, why do English people pronounce the Z as 'zed'?

31. With less bezels in FHD this could be the best smartphone ever 4.9" in such a small device ! Gosh this would be PERFECT … but Sony doesn't seem to like changes …

32. Want

33. You get a like just for playing FFIX on the phone 😀

34. What’s that orange colour called
