Meanwhile, the surprisingly-thick Xperia XZ2 Compact continues the beloved Sony tradition of super-compact devices, and while it's not as sleek as the XZ2, the 'munchkin' still has lots of charisma to it. Measuring at 5.31 x 2.56 x 0.48 inches (135 x 65 x 12.1 mm) but weighing 5.93 oz (168 g), the XZ2 Compact is a relatively compact device that has some pleasant heft to it. It doesn't boast a very high screen-to-body ratio, but this doesn't mean it's not a great new compact option to consider.

Alas, Xperia XZ1 Compact users that have looked forward to upgrading could be disappointed: the new compact Sony is nowhere it's precursor in overall size. The Xperia XZ2 Compact is slightly taller and a lot thicker and heavier than the XZ1 Compact. Sure, the XZ2 Compact comes with a larger display and marginally larger battery, but it's safe to say that the it is a downgrade over the XZ1 Compact when it comes to the single defining feature of the phone - its overall pocketability and ease of use. However, we wouldn't want to hand out judgment before we've had the chance to spend a few days or weeks with the Sony Xperia XZ2 Compact - who knows, it could end up shattering our slight disappointment. 

Okay, we walked you around the basics, here's a visual representation of how the XZ2 Compact stacks up against most of its rivals:
