A new addition to their flagship family, the XZ1 and XZ1 Compact shares the same OmniBalance design as its predecessors. Despite their simple and minimalistic design, both smartphones are rated at IP68 certification for water and dust resistance. Both phones will also ship out with Google’s latest Android 8.0 Oreo.
