Dimensions are important to me; I don't like 'phones' that don't fit in pockets. I was going to buy the Sony Xperia Z3 compact, but found it bulkier, heavier, and it wastes some of its screen to the three function keys, whereas with this phone you get all screen and no waste of space (buttons at the bottom which are always there). The price is of course much much better than the Sony as well. The perfomance of this compact phone is just great; it doesn't struggle with any 3D game, many processes, and the battery life is on par with all other phones in my experience. I noticed people complaining about the plastic, but I dropped it four times now on hard floors, and there's little to no damage with no extra protection whatsoever, I'm amazed.

What I don't like: I got the Telstra or T edition, which has an annoying shutter sound that you can't turn off, as well as a stupid warning that my ears might get damaged if I turn up my headphone volume way up, and the phone doesn't know its connected to AUX. I considered "rooting" the phone, but I just couldn't be bothered.
