The Z5 it's a flagship phone, the Xperia X although newer it is NOT a flagship device.

^^^ that.
Z5 is a beast

Nevertheless, ☓ is one of the fastest and well optimized phones from Sony I have ever used.

I bought x compact today... My old phone was Z5... And I recommend You to buy Xperia X or X compact it is much much better than Z5.... DO NOT BUY XPERIA Z5.... Z5 is the worst phone that SONY Created...

Although I love the Xperia Z5 series, I would recommend getting Xperia X, or if you could get the X performance.

What's the problem with Z5 dear and what about Z5 premium?!

[EQUINOX112]

Really affraid of its battery life....and the quality Z5 and z5 premium is better i think as they are flagships

Oh no don't get me wrong,  I have both z5 compact and Xperia x.  

Xperia z5 is every bit of flagship device as it should be. 

The Xperia x has enough incremental updates though to be considered as an alternative. It has better front facing camera,  already on nougat update., better screen calibration,  the back camera is actually just a little bit better than z5. Just a little bit. 

What comes to is the processor are you willing to have a top end processor (snap dragon 810) with lower speced Gpu over a newer but not topnotch the line snapdragon 620 ( better Gpu Than 810)

As for the battery 

Let's just say the 2day battery advertising is much truer to the z5 series compared to the X series,  xz included
