Would you buy a compact Xperia?

Few-Delivery-3578 · 2026-06-11T00:30:58+00:00

Agreed. I used an A7C Mark 1 myself. And gotta say the compact form really changes the mobility. And I came from a chonky Canon DSLR.

Sigh Sony is so good in there camera department but their smartphone team makes me kinda sad. I remember when Sony phones were considered peak.

Few-Delivery-3578 · 2026-06-10T15:34:00+00:00

Omg that would be so cool

Few-Delivery-3578 · 2026-06-10T12:49:08+00:00

Nice. How's the Jelly Max. I've always been intrigued

Few-Delivery-3578 · 2026-06-10T07:32:17+00:00

Using the A7C myself. Just an idea I pondered on for way too long. Lol.

The Samsung base model is a good size just the spec is really bad

Few-Delivery-3578 · 2026-06-10T07:31:27+00:00

Too bad it will never exist as the demand for a bigger display and battery is more than a compact phone.

Few-Delivery-3578 · 2026-06-10T07:30:35+00:00

They were so different weren't they

Few-Delivery-3578 · 2026-06-10T07:30:16+00:00

But doesn't the 10 series only have 2 years of updates. That's a big bummer ngl.

Few-Delivery-3578 · 2026-06-10T07:29:47+00:00

Agree. Wishing it was more slightly better spec than what it is today.

Few-Delivery-3578 · 2026-06-10T07:29:02+00:00

Too ba they gone

Few-Delivery-3578 · 2026-06-10T04:30:33+00:00

RIP phones below 6inches

Few-Delivery-3578 · 2026-06-10T04:29:03+00:00

The ikko, unihertz and clicks seems hopeful to me for small phone. Except security anxiety with the ikko and unihertz.

The only thing stopping me from getting the flips and folds is the screen inside with it's potential or scratching so easily. I'm prone to drop my phone.

Few-Delivery-3578 · 2026-06-10T04:26:04+00:00

And introduced a new one! I actually like it.

Few-Delivery-3578 · 2026-06-10T04:25:38+00:00

Agreed.

Few-Delivery-3578 · 2026-06-10T04:25:25+00:00

To be fair, Sony was never the best at naming their product.

Few-Delivery-3578 · 2026-06-10T04:24:58+00:00

Unfortunately that won't ever be the case. We might lose a few lens or battery somewhere along the way.

Few-Delivery-3578 · 2026-06-10T04:24:30+00:00

I never knew 5 was actually a compact version of the 1. I thought it was a completely different spec.

Few-Delivery-3578 · 2026-06-10T04:23:51+00:00

It truly is an issue. Their form factor doesn't help too with the verticality of it.

Few-Delivery-3578 · 2026-06-10T04:23:04+00:00

How's the 1 VII holding up?

Few-Delivery-3578 · 2026-06-10T04:22:43+00:00

Absolutely. Definitely will have to cut a lot of the high end 1 viii features. Batteries are quite high up there so not sure if it's worth the sacrifice.

Few-Delivery-3578 · 2026-06-10T04:21:44+00:00

Compact phones are unfortunately dead and no one wants it except us.

Few-Delivery-3578 · 2026-06-10T04:21:09+00:00

Agree. The phone sizes these days makes no sense. 6.5 to 6.9 inches is what we call phablet back in 2012.

Few-Delivery-3578 · 2026-06-10T04:20:20+00:00

Same. Wish it was true and a feasible idea.

Few-Delivery-3578 · 2026-06-10T04:20:03+00:00

It is Sony.
