Z5 Compact/X Compact

Is the Z5 Compact still good or Shall I go for X Compact? Both 200 euros
I'm on Z1 Compact now and it's fast enough but I just need a fingerprint scanner.

I would be very much intrested in a sony phone if they actually mainlined the kernel as they said they would.

The Z5 is pretty garbage

Bump

>snapdragon 810 housefire

Z5 compact is just fine, I bought one a few months ago and loaded LineageOS onto it.

The 810 really isn't an issue and the battery life is solid.

X compact

>ago and loaded LineageOS onto it
>then the camera turned to absolute shit once you wiped the drm keys

It's pretty bad desu but for the price it may be worth it since you are upgrading from a Z1 compact.

The camera isn't that bad afterwards, its certainly nowhere near as shit as my Z3 without DRM.

It isn't much of a problem though, I have a DSLR.

Sony cameras are dog shit even before that so you aren't losing much.

...

Any chance of a comparison shot between the Z5C and your DSLR?

>Sony makes top tier sensors and cameras
>Puts a great sensor in to their flagships
>Literally 0 effort in to making the processing look good

Sure, give me 10 mins.

Thank you user. Nice AT setup you've got there as well, 10/10 comfy af

That's not a DSLR. That cheap body it's much better than the Z5C, though.

Is that made using a Z5C running Lineage?

Yeah. It takes a dive in poor lighting.

Colour reproduction isn't anywhere near right either.

Get the X compact, it's supposed to get the 8.0 update.

I might be able to get XZ1 Compact for 300 euros

That's an even better option

England? Where? Looks familiar.

County Durham, near Hartlepool.

nice price, faggot. where from?

Friend of mine has a phone shop

I suggest you go for XZ1 compact, I bought 2nd for 180€
Best phone, ever!
It lasts 3 days without any problem, two if I do stuff that requires a lot power and 1 day if I do full heavy use.

no

my z5c didnt even last me 3 months
screen is popping out. plastic lense is scratched to shit

if sony just spend more in build quality it would've been a god tier phone

Slow as fuck but size is amazing
