Wow, 3 hours should be enough to charge it fully, not sure why you needed 3 weeks?

8GB could be a problem, but heat for the price.

It can be expanded by up to 200GB so this shouldn't be a problem. It's also waterproof and dust proof which is great for the price.
I wasn't really looking for a new phone but am quite tempted by this. I couldn't justify spending £400 plus on one and this does everything I need.

Mine overheated after 3 weeks of charging and the frame bent. Its a common problem for the xperia line if you google it. Sony wanted £133 for a new phone as it was deemed not fixable due to cost and not part of their warranty. So be warned

So you wouldn't advise a z5 compact then?

Still got an Xperia phone after 2 years, also know multiple people with various different Xperia's and no problems at all. I'd go as far as saying the best phone I have ever had.

I have spent all day rooting mine because the bloatware. Could only get a couple of apps on before it kept telling me to delete stuff, or I can add anymore. Don't bother with the 8gb. Seems a nice phone otherwise.

I bought this M4 second hand (unused though) on ebay over a year ago as my first smartphone at a little under this price. Pretty much does what you need, you obviously uninstall facebook ap etc.
It has lasted quite well. After a year both of the flaps for the headphone and power socket fell off... Within 3 days of each other. It went all crappy for a while but then I realised I had to update the software and now its normal again. 32gb micro SD is fine.
It has a slight defect on that if pressure is put on the screen it can cause a little pocket to form in the centre of the screen. Happened to my mums M2 and I sent it back under warranty and was sorted in a couple of days. I had the same issue but ot went away on its own (cycled with it my back pocket like a moron).
Anyway, I think this deal is good.

If you buy this in store be careful, my local O2 store tried to give me used ones as new, inspect them carefully as they tried two of them and both had fingerprints all over them.
The M4 doesn't have any flaps on the charger or headphone socket, it's also not even been out for a year so no you didn't.

Confused, so if you bought this phone and wanted to use Facebook on it, then you'd uninstall Facebook? How does that help if you wanted to use Facebook?

Don't bother unless it's at least the 16 gig version. With the 8 gig you'll run out of app room immediately after updating apps and only a tiny proportion can be moved to a SD card. You can remove and disable a few built in apps but it's unacceptable that Sony even considers 8 gig as usable. It's not trust me.

Disabled / Uninstalled all removable bloats, Have a few apps I use, 1gb free
I do not keep music / games / picture collections on it , SD card would be fine for that anyway (?)
"Upgraded" from moto g 4g 8Gb, not feeling the "wow".

On second thoughts it was about 8 months. The m4 aqua does have little flap on the power input and headphone output.
Why you need to imply im lying is beyond me lol.
Its a good phone .
Um, I just meant uninstall apps like facebook... If you want this phone to run efficiently.
