The Best.

I choose my phones based on size, and ordered my first Alpha in 2016. It lasted for nearly 3 years. Wanting something a bit newer and up-to-date, I replaced it with a Sony Xperia Compact X. Disappointingly, it was the same width as the Alpha but at least twice the thickness and weight and lacked several basic features, ie having a replaceable battery. The kicker was having it fall off a shelf 2 weeks after purchase and the screen dying completely (with case and screen protector on!). I can't tell you how many times I'd dropped my Alpha without any issues afterwards. I returned the Xperia and got a new Alpha, and don't know why I ever tried anything else. If you want a small, slim, stylish, efficient android phone, this is IT!
I would recommend this to a friend!

It's a good phone. it is just the right size it feels good I'm my hand. It has the perfect size screen. It fits in all my pockets. But it is hard to find camouflage accessories. And I can't get a good picture when I zoom in it goes blurry and I don't know what to do about that. But over all it is the best phone I've ever had. And it's very durable we were going deer hunting and I had to jump out the Tahoe and open the gate and when I got out my phone fell out of my pocket and at the time I had no case because it was a day or two old. And my uncle went to check on his cows and ran it over and it was face down in the grave and nothing happens to it but a little bit of the paint came off on the metal edge.
Pros: Built-in speakers, Bright display, Inexpensive, Durable, Realistic color, Lightweight

Top of the line for less

I got one of these for myself and one for my wife, partly because they finally dropped in price, and because then we could have interchangable back up batteries. I have been pleasantly surprised with it's speed and reliability. It was also exciting to get the upgrade to Android 5.0 Lollipop. I have found that the battery lasts adequately unless you leave your wifi on and it is searching and reconnecting alot during the day, just did 4 days at Disney World and only one of us used the backup battery. I still wish there was an SD card slot for expandability down the road but I haven't come close to filling it up yet. Did I mention it is the perfect size and is the best looking phone out there? Oh yeah, the last thing is that Samsung's calendar app rocks compared to anything out there I have tried.
Pros: Inexpensive, fast, 5.0 lollipop
Cons: no sd card slot, no built in smartactions
I would recommend this to a friend!

All the features of the big phones, at a size that will still slide into my jeans pocket. And I can replace the battery if needed.
Pros: Bright display, Built-in speakers, Lightweight

This is my first smart phone and it's really easy to use. I like the design and how easy the pages and icons are to manipulate. The blue tooth is easy to connect and always ask if I want to connect to the rental car. Nice strong signal it's not big and bulky like other phones I've seen my friends carry. The only thing I can say against it is that it doesn't have built in talk to text, but you can download an app for that.
Pros: Bright display, Realistic color, Durable, Inexpensive, Lightweight, Built-in speakers
Cons: no built in talk to text

This phone is nice and also the specification but the battery power is so low for the smartphone use.
