So as above in all pictures the volume rocker is below the power button in between the power and camera button. But my z5 is above the power. Which means I cannot find a single case to fit it. Not even the official Sony will? God dammit help!!
yes its quite hard to find case for this phone, the only thing you can do it buy the other case nilkin frost type and make a hole with hot blade or like that. i did that when i switch from Z3 to Z3 Plus 
Hi @Hacker42, welcome to our forum!
That sounds very strange, could you please go to Settings > About phone and get back to me with your model number? You are correct that the volume up and volume down buttons should be placed between the camera button and the power button on an Xperia Z5 Compact.
@ImKhan, sorry to hear that you are having troubles finding a case for your Xperia Z5 Compact. 
As the device is 2½ years old, retailers may not have all the accessories available for devices that are a bit older. May I ask which country you are living in? That way I will be able to tell you if the Xperia Store is available on your market and you can check if there are any cases available for the Z5 Compact there!
Thanks in advance! 
Hi model number is G8441
we are in the UK it was supplied from Vodafone
best regards

Thanks for getting back to me @Hacker42! 
G8441 is an Xperia XZ1 Compact, so a case for the Xperia Z5 Compact will not fit this device as the volume up and volume down buttons are placed above the power button instead of below as on the Z5 Compact!
I would recommend that you have a look on the link below as it lists the available cases for the Xperia XZ1 Compact in our eStore for the United Kingdom.

I hope that you will find a case that suits you!
