Sony Xperia Z3 Compact: High-end mini phone plays PS4 remotely (hands-on)

2014-09-03
I'm Andrew hole CNET and I'm here taking a look at the Sony Xperia z3 compact it's an Android phone that packs the same high-end tech found inside the brand-new flagship Xperia z3 but packs it into a much more compact 4.6 in size now it's very easy to see the family resemblance between the z3 compact and it's bigger brother they both have glass upfront and backs and they're both completely waterproof now there are a few differences to note though most notably on the edge now amber z3 compact it has a polycarbonate edging rather than the more premium feeling metal on the full-size model the screen is 4.6 inches across which makes a lot more easier than using one hand in the 5.2 inch said three a four point six inches that is actually quite a bit bigger than the four point three inches of the said one compact although the phone's body itself hasn't got any bigger so it's still very easy to use the resolution of the z3 compact screen is only 720p which is a step down from the Full HD of the regular Zed 3 but in a smaller body is actually not a lot of difference to tell in clarity many of the key specs are the same though they both have 2.5 gigahertz quad-core Qualcomm processors and around the back you'll find 20.7 megapixel camera as only reckons that this camera has been optimized to work particularly well with low-light now a neat new feature on the z3 compact and indeed the other zimizib 3 range is the ability to hook your phone up to your PlayStation 4 on the same Wi-Fi network and actually play PlayStation 4 games essentially using your phone as a second screen experience said three compact isn't a massive overhaul from the experience dead 1 compact but it's bigger screen in the same size body will be very very welcome as will Sony's claimed two day battery life the so free compacted do to go on sale globally towards the end of the year although sony has yet to say how much it will cost so make sure to keep your eyes on Sina I'm Andrew ho CNET's and this is a Sony Xperia
