How's the bloatware situation these days? Had a sony a few years ago and hated it for that reason, hardware was fine as I recall.

Without root you can disable a lot of their apps. If you never log in to them you always get a bail out option if you accidentally open one too, since you have to agree to their terms before use. Basically, in practical terms the Sony bloatware didn't get in my way.

Really not that bad. There's a small amount, but some of it is useful.
I did swap the launcher to Nova Launcher eventually, but that's a coming from a oneplus one with CyanogenOS on it, and I wanted some of the tricks from that back.

I got my phone from there, as did my mum and my wife. All fine. They are Grey imports, so consider if that's an issue for you.
My wife has the xz1 compact, and loves it. My mum and I both have the full fat version and are very happy with them. All of them came with both a UK plug, and a converter, as they obviously often sell phones that have EU plugs.
