This one's built for people who want flagship power without a giant slab of glass in their pocket. At 4.3 inches, the Xperia Z1 Compact packs a Snapdragon 800 chipset and Adreno 330 GPU under the hood, the same tier of hardware Sony was putting in its bigger phones that year. 2 GB RAM and 16 GB storage keep things modest by today's standards, though microSD support up to 64 GB helps stretch that further.

The headline spec is the 20.7 MP rear camera, a big sensor for a compact phone, with autofocus, LED flash and HDR support for stills and video. Battery capacity sits at 2300 mAh, non-removable, paired with an IP58 rating that means it shrugs off dust and a dunk in water for half an hour.

Sony Xperia Z1 Compact price in Malaysia starts from RM257, and it comes in Black, White, Pink and Lime.
