Z3 Compact? If there's a market for certain devices, companies will sell them. What do you expect companies to do here? I don't understand this discussion.

People here are complaining about a 4.7" screen phone and you counter with... a 4.6" screen phone. I think you've demonstrated baddox's point.

Screen size isn't phone size, particularly when it comes to iPhones, since they have very large bezels. Here http://j.mp/1uIZZ6f is a size comparison of the 5S, 6 and Z3C.

I still miss my Xperia mini pro. 3in display and a slide-out keyboard. Beautiful little thing... but too underpowered to keep using 4.5 years on.

I certainly don't blame any companies or the industry. I suspect they usually know what customers want and that I am in the minority.
