Help Xperia M2 - compass?

I currently have an HTC Wildfire S and am thinking of upgrading.
As I do alot of outdoors walking navigation I need a compass that works the same as the one in my Wildfire S.

Now the Wildfire S is advertided as having a 'digital compass' but I am not sure if there is a difference between a digital compass and a compass.

The phone says it has a 'compass' but I'm not sure if its the right type.

What I mean is... can I stand somewhere without internet or signal, take out the phone and see which direction I am facing as I would with a regular map reading compass.

Its very important I have an Android compass that moves just like a regular compass.
Thanks for any answers.
