'It’s disappointing that Sony hasn’t matched the Z3’s Full HD display, but this is still good for a phone this size, and it matches what the competition currently offers.'
'The Sony Xperia Z3 Compact packs a larger screen than its predecessor in the same size body, it has tonnes of power, it's completely waterproof allowing for underwater photography and it has a good camera.'
'It’s a nice phone, but the only thing that stands out at present is a totally unacceptable overheating problem with the camera. '
'It's a catastrophe for a smartphone maker that prides itself on offering among the best camera experience. '
'On the other hand, we weren't entirely satisfied with the screen's performance under direct sunlight - it seemed washed out and it was difficult sometimes to handle.'
'A rectangular two-sided glass slab held together by a metal frame makes for a premium styling which feels equally nice to look at and handle.'
'Thanks to the arched nature of the phone, it ergonically contours in our hand to provide a natural grip.
'
'The build quality is close to top notch and it really does feel like a smaller One M8, although I did find the nanoSIM tray on the left of the device didn't sit completely flush with the case.'
'The HTC One Mini 2 is a nice phone, but at launch it's a little expensive. '
'HTC has taken a minimalist approach when designing the Desire 816.'
'My review handset was white, which did a pretty good job of hiding the fingerprints and smudges that will no doubt find plaguing the colour versions.'
'The 720x1280 resolution might be stretched thin over the 5.5in screen, but the resulting 267 pixels-per-inch is dense enough to deliver a solid viewing experience.'
'Footage is smooth, but again, you lose some detail in low light.'
