Blazars are well known for the violent variability from the radio to gamma-ray wavelengths. In this paper, we present a brief summary of the X-ray variability recently obtained for TeV blazars. We also point out the probable similarities of the X-ray variability characteristics between blazars and microblazars. Such phenomenological analogies could be interpreted and unified with the synchrotron X-ray emissions from the jets of the two classes of objects that differ in black hole mass by factors of $\ga 10^7$. The phenomenological analogies in blazars and microblazars (both are jet-dominated) might be parallel to those in black hole X-ray binaries in high/soft state and Seyfert galaxies (both are disk-dominated).
