Sony Xperia X Compact hits Amazon

Although competition is very strong and the Xperia X Compact has a lot of more powerful opponents in its price range, Sony Mobile has decided to unleash this handset on the US market. This 4.6-inch Android handset is now up for pre-order from Amazon, its main highlight being the 23 MP main camera on the back.

Sony Xperia X Compact is powered by a Qualcomm Snapdragon 650 processor, next to 3 GB RAM and 32 GB internal storage. Its 4.6-inch display has a very low resolution, only 1,280X720 pixels. However, the 5 MP front camera for selfies is accompanied by a high-end 23 MP main shooter on the back. This smartphone features a 2,700 mAh battery, as well as a regular set of connectivity options, digital noise canceling, PS4 Remote Play, high-resolution audio capabilities, and more.

The regular price of the unlocked Sony Xperia X Compact is $499.99 USD, but Amazon offers a $50 USD credit with each pre-order, lowering the price tag to $449.99 USD. The color options listed are white, Mist Blue, and Universe Black.
