Review: Brilliant Phone! - I've had this phone for a couple of weeks now and I love it too bits. It's a perfect size for me as I'm not a big fan of large phones.l I know people are not happy that Sony have removed the audio jack from their phones, but I think it's a great move because I had problems with the jack on my last phone (Sony Xperia Z3 compact)
Review: Great phone - I'm new to the Android world having been an iPhone user for 9 years and Blackberry before that so the XZ2 compact has taken some getting used to, (well Android did). I read a lot of reviews before purchasing the phone but haven't experienced any of the issues others have reported. It's nearly the same size as the iPhone 6, thicker and heavier and as such it feels more sturdy, albeit a tad uncomfortable in a breast pocket. I choose the phone mainly for both the sound and image quality and again I've not been disappointed, especially when playing jazz or classical. I'd buy one again, no hesitation, other for the user interface of the iPhone is superior in my opinion.

### ⭐ Scam by the seller! (Olabra)
*by D***D on 16 January 2022*

The seller sold me this phone as bran new original Sony but it broke down just a little after a month so I could not return it or claim at Amazon! I tried everything literally to get it fixed in three different countries (at Sony) but looks like the seller did intend to scam buyers here as they all came back with the same response of “irreparable”! Such a waste of hundreds of pounds really! P.S. Sellers are not native English speakers (Spanish-speaking) so emails sent to them were useless (duh)
