Sony Xperia XA Dual - User Reviews

  • I am in love with this phone. It's just auwsum, it's features, apps, camera etc.But I lost my phone 😢.I just want it back. I don't know how but I wish and pray to get back my phone.please pray for me and if anyone from you , know the way to find out my divice so please tell.

  • You can buy this if you want to normal use this phone. But if you wish to use heavily, i recommend you not to buy it. Because it has issues with the battery life and overheating. But the performance is awesome. Cameras are pretty good. Sound is awesome and everything is cool except the battery life.

  • I am using this phone since one year and seven months, in between (last december when it was about one year after purchase) when it was under warranty, i got its camera glass replaced because its surface got blur on its own(some blue layer on its glass was worn out), they charged 300 rupees to replace the glass piece and without guarantee the charge 800+ rupees, very costly brand( this kind of problem does not arise in even Chinese brands). Finally now after using phone for one year and seven months, my touch have stopped working without any reason, now it costs 5000+ rupees.This phone are with really very delicate hardware which fail again and again, and still the company charges heavily for those, friends i dont recommend this phone to anybody. its just a waste of money.

  • Battery heats up and drains quickly.. Mq4 is by far better than this phone believe me you.. I really detest the day I bought it! However, I'm so in love with the camera, performance and of course the shape..

  • Hallo friends im using sony xa dual Im facing when I use headset with my xa pain comes from ears any body has this problem

  • Hello peeps, I have been using this phone for at least 9 months i guess. First of all, I definitely wouldn't recommend you this phone but wait let me explain. (Please read all of them, thx!) There's a whole range of smartphones with great specs and even greater value than the xperia xa dual. Besides, the most concerning issue of this phone is the overheating. It heats up very easily especially when you are playing games with high fps. The phone also heats up when you take some shots with the phone's camera. When the phone heats up, it doesn't just heat up the phone but drain the battery as well. If you have seen the complains, its all about the battery drain so i think you get the idea of that part. Its just not the average battery drain you would expect from a mid range phone. Okay what about the performance? Well, its not that great either but what can you expect from a mid range phone.. Am i right? Last of all : the camera. The image produced are a bit softer and the front facing camera just won't meet my expectations. Honestly though, its still a usable phone with edge to edge body ratio. The body is sleek and the modern design wont dissapoint you. Overall its an OK phone with a slightly higher price. Thanks for reading all of them.

  • same here

  • im okay with my xperia dual. only one problem, why the music is not loud. not enough loud. even my old nokia polyphonic ringtone is louder than my xperia

  • Sony xa plus is the worst phone I have ever used works slowly when data is switched on ,it can't perform multitasking what should I do

  • I had using this Xperia xa mobile atlest one year. When we using camera that time the phone is very hitting. And a others problem That is the very poor battery life. I thought This problems are the facing all Xperia xa user.. So i recommend my all frnd they were didn't buy this mobile phone

  • I am using this phone since one year, its performance is good but it gets heated up very fast particularly while we use camera for long time. i want to share some serious problems with this phone regarding its built quality, first of all at this price range its body plastic is very poor as my phone back side got minor scratches when already its back cover was on due to fine dust particles(not an issue with my Samsung at all), well which is not a major problem.. but now after 11 months my glass for back camera(13Mp) got blur(damaged glass surface) on its own with in genuine use, i visited Sony service center, as my phone was under warranty they charged me rupees 300\- as service charge and without warranty they charge 800-1000 rupees for the same problem & with waiting period if minimum one week so this is very costly brand after you purchase it.At this price range the quality is not up to match,,

  • performance, camera, display, sounds great. but what st the heck i can do from 2300mah battery. it drains very fast and heats up when using camera and downloading files from wifi(eg:torrents) i like the brand but why they add a small batteries to their products and this is a waste of money. the main things that I want from a mobile are performance, storage and battery 😞

  • Same problem here. After nauget upgrade the camera became slow .When i want to restart it then it frize sometime. 😭😭😭&#128­557;😭

  • I had using this xperia xa dual for almost 1 years and 3 month, all i got to say is there is pro and con,the con is heating ,its no so serious,but it will heat if using a camera for a long time or heavy usage like gaming,other is battery life,under heavy use it only get half a day,average usage will get barely 1 day but on other side ,the pro,after more than 1 years usage i got to say ,this phone is still smooth and snappy,performance still good,only need to take care not to cramp internel storage,camera front and back good enough for me and its charging quite fast even with normal charger overall,this phone is good because its still maintain a stable and smooth performance after more than a year because some of my friend bought xiaomi but after 6 month it get slow and laggy.the only thing that need to live with it is heating under heavy usage and battery thats all,i recommend this phone to someone that doing light usage and snap a photo sometimes ,cheers..

  • I got this phone for a discount and all i can it one hell of a phone for the price of RM 799.The performance is top notch and the screen is beautiful given for the price range.The battery kinda suck as i manage to to only keep it charge for 1 day but other that it performs well for my daily needs

  • Dont buy unable to upgrade the OS

  • Extreme heating issue & battery life is not good

  • Is there any heating issue in the device or what about battery ? Please help i want to buy

  • I would like to buy a new xa dual. Pls feedback give me, how is battery life

  • Battery backup bad.ear sound very bad

  • What are you thinking about this phone? I am thinking to buy. I am from Sri Lanka... Please help me friends...! Thank you.

  • You, can move most of apps to SD card. Go to settings >apps>select particular app>inside it select storage >memory shared>storage used>change it to SD card. Most of apps can be moved to SD card except Google apps & whatsapp. Please Tyr it I have tried it, works.

  • Disappointed with this phone. Has 16gig memory but you can't move apps to the the memory card so it quickly fills up. For a phone built in 2016 to lack 4g is absurd. Battery life is the worst I have ever seen in a mobile phone. Only preserves battery when the saving mode is activated but you lose functionality. Only nice thing about this device is the camera. If I had an option to return the phone would gladly do that

  • Keep the mobile data on. Use Jio4GVoice app to make calls.

  • It supports 4G calling. You just have to use the Jio4GVoice app with mobile data on. It won't work if data isn't turned on. Cheers.

  • Use Jio4GVoice app to make calls. Make sure to always keep the mobile data on.

  • How to enable Jio 4G volte in Xperiaxa

  • turn on stamina mode at all time to reduce heat and battery drain, unless u are doing hardcore gaming.

  • I bought tis sony xperia xa dual phone on 12th july recently. Phone is getting heat even when the phone is not in use. The charger is also heavily getting heat. The battery is draining with in five hours of use. Why the company is not responding to such a big problems for such a costly phone from such a reputed company raj

  • So good

  • My only concern about Xa rose gold is when i turn on my phone it wont be able to open and it only appears the name Android on screen. So i waited until my phone gets low battery. And when i charge and turn it again it'll do the same thing again.

  • This phone has a great problem............... right side of the phone is responsing slowly....... in the keyboard if I have to type '''qwa'''' this words respond very slowly........ the sensitivity is too slow.........also my dads sony xperia L 2 has this similar problem

  • Hello sir i using xa dual Sony. For six months know it's it's heating is there any solution to prevent heating problems. I already updated my mobile in to nougat

  • xperia xa has a big problem with the OS since I have updated my device the device would not function in most cases. switch over to app wont respond, sometime the screen would simply go white. I have tried a lot to repair the software never worked out , this device seems piece of junk. I have used sony device all my life this is the first phone from sony which is not upto the mark, if I check the features the mediatek processor is useless as it just dose not function as it should be, I have no idea why a reputed company like sony even uses mediatek processor in their phone.

  • Does not support 1080p on youtube. Don't know about external videos.

  • I got this phone few weeks ago and it's a great one. totally recommend it. its snappy, fast and smooth and works as it should. battery is fine and can get you through the day easily with medium usage and on screen time, Sony did a great job in optimizing the battery for this one since its not a beefy one and it charges really quickly too, the phone looks gorgeous and the call quality is good. so far no complaints from this phone , except yes it can get a bit warm when its over-worked especially if its installing the android updates, other than that, it gets mildly warm from time to time when using it or having it process videos or online streaming but not "crazy hot" as some people keep mentioning here.

  • Poor camera quality... M not satisfied with xa camera... Samsung is more batter than xperia.. Wastage of money..

  • Everything is fine but Camera quality is very poor 😕😕😕

  • How is audio quality? sound quality with head sets?

  • Both slot supporting 4g Networks.

  • When you are watching the movies you can use the stamina mode. That's the only solution for the battery draining.

  • Overall performance of xa dual is good Bt battery works for only 4 hours by heavy using.but for normal usage it works for 8 to 9 hours. Pros : Camera both front n back works better. Performance is too good.Thanks to 2.0 octa core helio p10 chip. Looks great.. Cons : battery for heavy users. I use this phone for secondary and for primary iPhone 7plus.

  • i'm using Sony XA i bought it with 225 Jod which is 317.62 , its camera is so good and thats why i bought it , but i have two problems: 1. too much crashes. 2. i always get mobile network not available, and people always call me and tell me that they can reach me, just when i'm out side not in a bulding it works well that means the GSM in sony is the problem, i used to use Samsung mini s3 and it work way better. 3. it takes so long time to turn on, more than pentium computer, ive recorded a vedio for that. 4. in the early morning the touch screen needs long time to response , it's sensitive to humidity, sure thats not always but i wonder how a samsung phone in 2011 is better than A sony produced in 2016

  • As it is mentioned dual sim(4g+2g),does it support 3g on both the sims????

  • use it for week, charge it full and don't recharge it until there no charge, every new battery need at least a week for it to work probably, so this is not issue, congrats it's very nice phone

  • I just got Sony xa since 2 days ago, but what the battery matter ??? OMG i am med range user, i use only 3 hours on the internet on Wifi but i noticed the battery is draining too fast. i charge my mobile 3 times in the day !! i active the SATAMINA mode today and i noticed littlebit improvement. i consider it's bad experiment and don't know what to do, any suggestion ? Advice? :((

  • pls pls pls help meee :( my phone when connect to the charge when screen is off i see this error system ui has stopp...i use last sofware and repair that but nothing :((( what should i do? i live in iran and here sony not support

  • After several weeks of use i will say my opinion First of all, the mobile is a matter of personal choice and needs, for me i'd pick a mid-ranger instead of a flagship for aesthetics and ergonomics, this is why i fell in love with xperia xa In my hand, it reminds me of the galaxy a5 2015, it is a joy to hold this phone in hand or pocket Camera is good, front is better than back, and as long as u dont compare it with other sony flagships u will be satisfied Phone gets never ever hot, even with heavy use I dont play games so performance is fine with me, never hangs It has the magnificent advantage of using both sims and sd, no stupid hybrid slot Battery lasts almost 10-11 hours with wifi always on, i charge overnight and it survives with me fair enough, It is a very good phone, for light to moderate users, i have no regrets, and i will not change it for a chunky flagship that costs a fortune, this will remain with me till i find another such slim, light and narrow phone with as good specs

  • I m planning to buy this phone but I am confuses between xperia xa and HTC desire 10 lifestyle...I like gaming and want better front camera and stylish looks ...plz suggest me what to buy . . .?

  • I got one three days ago and i found a folder named "sdcard" containing mc5 game data (sdcard/android/data/com...). What do you think, did they sent me a used item? Should i return my smartphone to snapdeal? If anyone has bought recently, please tell me

  • I got one three days and i found a folder named "sdcard" containing game data. What do you think, did they sent me a used item? Should i return my smartphone to snapdeal?

  • i dont understand y people are complaining about the missing volte just because jio is free till march, what happens to it afterwards, are you going to use it or switch back to regular card for data. volte issue is useless

  • hi can u confirm it has a gorila glass or just scratch resistant glass

  • Hy bro This is a very good phone of Xperia and waterproof cell phone but I used Xperia z 1

  • I ordered one from snapdeal and after unboxing i found 'sdcard' folder in it containing mc5 data (sdcard/android/data/com.gameloft etc). Does anyone else has this folder in it or did snapdeal sent me a used item. Kindly reply.

  • I am using this phone for 15 days. It was hanging too much. It was because of PlayAppHelper. Just Uninstall this.

  • will xperia xa F3112 works in India

  • OPPO is beter than Sony xa dual

  • Pros: 1- Slim body. Design and finishing is super. Edge-less, slightly curved edge display (Looks like Samsung Edge) makes it more attractive. As the whole body (you can say) is the Display, having a 5 inch display doesn't make the phone bigger size. It's handy 2- Camera (13MP + 8MP) is awesome. (Those who are saying that it's like 8MP + 5MP are advised to change the settings to 13MP + 8MP. Because by default it has been set to 9MP + 5MP. So you have to change the resolution settings to get the Full HD Resolution, otherwise you will hate the camera) 3- 2GHz Octacore Processor with 2GB RAM makes the phone very fast. You don't even need the 2 GB of RAM ever 4- Excellent Sound quality (Both Loud speaker and earphone). Look at the position of the Speaker. If you are putting your phone on the bed then also the speaker doesn't get coverup. 5- Fast Charging 6- Also have the separate Camera Button, which is very useful at the time of taking Selfie 7- No Hybrid Memory Card slot. You can use both 2 SIM Cards as well as a SD Card 8- Sony brand makes more sense with a reliable product quality and service Cons: 1- Low battery backup as compare to other Sony devices. Because it has 5 inch HD Display and Mediatek Processor, which consume more power (more cores in the processor means more power consumption). Still battery last for 1 day in normal use (You can but a UCH12 Fast charger, and get 5hr backup in just 10min of charging) 2- No VoLTE (You can't even get the VoLTE feature after future software update, as VoLTE is a hardware feature which is not present here). But if you are using JIO SIM then you can make calls through Jio4GVoice App, but you have to Enable the Data for that 3- No Front Camera Flash (Camera is too good, no need of Flash) 4- Fingerprint Sensor, Gyroscope is not present (Not even required for most of the users. So it does not make any sense) 5- Curved Edges. So screen guard doesn't fit on edge perfectly. (But as it has Gorilla Glass, screen not required) 6- Internal Memory is 16GB, but you will get only 10.1 GB free for App installation and storage. A major part of this 10.1 GB get consumed very fast by Android system software and Google apps. 7- Marshmallow has an option to format your SD Card as Internal memory by which you can use your memory card as internal storage and avoid the problem of Low Internal memory problem. But this feature has been disable in every Sony Xperia Phones. Finally I'll say, it's a very good phone in this price range (Approx Rs 15000/- me Sony apni Jaan to nahi de dega naa apko). So dont worry go for it.

  • go for XA without asking why. it is Sony, enough said.

  • ​Dear friends I am confused Sony Xperia XA Dual is better and Moto 4g plus.....Please helps Me.

  • Hlo Frnds I'm going to buy this phone. I'm confused between oppo F1s & Xperia XA. Which is better. F1s has Almost Double Features But look wise XA is much better. Plz suggest me any one & why?

  • Bought this device a month ago. PROS: * Stunning, Premium Look and Design * Slim / Thin * Comfort and Handy * Fast Charging Support ( with the bundled charger, it takes 45 mins. to reach 75% from 0%). You can purchase the fast charger for the real fast charging offered by Sony. * Rose Gold variant looks more beautiful ( in my perception) * Good Performance ( 7/10) * Very Good Cameras ( Both Rear and Back ) , but might have little difference in low light conditions. Very good for daylight snaps. * Object Tracking support * Good color and contrast from the display, even though the display is not full HD. * Bezelless ( Edge to edge display ) CONS: * Poor battery life. ( Average battery life for moderate users) I f you are a heavy user with 24*7 Internet and Playing games etc., then the battery will last longer for 6 to 7 hrs. But you can turn on Stamina Mode, it will definitely improve battery life than the Normal Mode. * For a normal / moderate use; the phone is okay. * Average or above average Loud Speakers. But clarity is good though. This is my honest review about Xperia XA Dual after a month of use. Thanks. *

  • Nice phone battery is good and I like his phone in gaming and I love it nice features it look like flagship phone I just love it

  • the front camera quality is very bad after the last update, does anyone having the same problem? it is not sharp and it worse in video mode...

  • XA doesn't support VOLTE so, you have to download jio4gvoice app from playstore then you can use voice calls from XA

  • after last update i noticed a bug, the back camera autofocus doesn't work well at all, it's slow and sometimes very slow and sometimes it does not work, please sony it has phase dedication autofocus it should be as fast as other x models!!!

  • plus i like it's wide, 66.8 so nice. but it's height is a bit long, if only if it has smaller screen because i like small phones like 4.5 or 4.3 but not very small i noticed the front camera quality get bad when there is a bit of battery juice. this should not happen for any reason. i hope sony can read my comments and take a notes! and update to fix these problems.

  • i bought this phone yesterday... i have to say this is the most beautiful phone i ever seen, it's design is so nice... cameras are more than great, very fast, they are like magic... performance is great too, fast, it feels like flagship phone... i don't know about battery back up becuase i just bought it before 6 hours or so but i guess it's not bad as other people think... i got 2 system updates just right away when i opened it what i dont like about it is... the back side is made from plastic, i can live with it but if it was all metal that would be great.. the camera autofocus is fast in photo mode but not fast enough to my liking in video mode but again it's good faster than other phones in the same price range, i hope sony can make it faster in the comming updates like xperia x model... that's all, i did not notice any problems yet..i will update the comment after while after i use it for while... im not phone gamer im playstation gamer so i will not use a lot of battery.. it does not heat up only get warm so don't worry that's normal that's all, thank you sony.

After that I downloaded & installed Jio4Gvoice app(for calling sms etc), open the app you will be able to do voice calls & sms through this app. This card works good for voice callings, sms and data services for surfing, and whatsapp. I am not facing any problem. Xperia XA is very good phone with good speed.

  • Will cortana work on this phone?

  • Ok i bought it 2 weeks ago i had iphone 5c before but it is dead now, i didnt feel like i downgraded at all everything works fine ny only concern is the loudspeaker volume which isnt very high but only on some youtube videos, however i got that fixed by installing a volume booster app that boosts the volume by 10 percent which is quite enough. Thats all its a value for money its not iphone 7 its not sony xperia xz it will do the job cos i change my mobile after 2 years so i feel like im up to date with this phone

  • How's ur phone working after448mb update....pls reply?

  • One LTE network and one GSM network • One WCDMA network and one GSM network • Two GSM networks....

  • 1. I bought Sony Xperia XA Dual on November 2nd 2016 with great expectations. However, slot 2 of the dual SIM is not responding. The phone recognises only SIMS put in slot 1. I don't know what to do to resolve this issue. 2. The device gets heated up easily while am browsing. Is this how 21st Century smartphone should be behaving?

  • Full of bloatware which drains the battery and uses big amount of data. 3:00 AM there's message sound telling "what's new" - not even remotely attractive to wake up and see "what's new", cannot be removed. No consistent pattern that will this setting do what it's supposed to do. Steals your information by default for google. I don't understand how this phone should be held in my hand since every time there's volume or camera button pressed. Every. So - full of bugs and must be rooted and debloated.

  • Average battery , getting better & better by updates , new aprx 500MB update received recently

  • 4G call is not exist in any device because of network

  • My mobile data is on but whatsapp imo fb messenger line is not working. On wifi all is working. Should any one know problem???

  • Battry

  • Anyone can tell me that xperia xa supports jio 4g call or not? ??????

  • how s the battery backup ??

  • Never purchase this phone. Worst experience I ever have with sony. Heating problem, Slowest phone I ever used, Memory card issue, Data remains ON all time, Low battery life. And for more problems purchase this phone.

  • I got the update info in my mail id & it also available to download on my phone on notification bar. I can also able to check it manually. Nothing special i have done.

  • if you buy official model in India , it should supports 4G and other types of network mode

  • Both are good , Both have its benefits compare to them

  • this update in not showing in my XA Dual , do you use Xperia Companion PC app or other thing ? the bug of moving big apps to SD card is solved or not ?

  • Xperia XA: New software is available There is a software update (v. 33.2.B.3.105) available for your device. Update your deviceÂ’ s software and enjoy new features, better performance, speed and bug fixes. Once again update of about 448mb.No update log what this update is about, still wondering how many updates to istall without any info at my own risk. And i am sure nothing is going to change after update.

  • Xperia M5 is better than Xperia XA

  • Xperia XA or Xperia M5 ??? Which one is better, please help..

  • New issues found days after days : After update to latest version now i found issue in network in my Xperia XA dual . I have never faced such type of issue before update. Now the signal strength 📶 suddenly drops to zero from 100. It stays like that for about 30 seconds or more to get the signal again. Its so annoying and some times it repeats again and again. Its the limit for my patience with Sony, now i really started hating this handset which is good for nothing. Major drawbacks for me is no support for VoLte. Yes, i mean volte not lte. Those who don't know the difference kindly clear your doubts before posting silly things. Worst speaker 🔊 phone. Can't listen songs or youtube videos clearly even in indoor. Everytime i have to plug in earphones 🎧. Battery life is average on normal usage and worst for gaming. Overheats a lot without any reason. I have not installed a single game. Can't use camera more than 5min. as it heats like an iron. Ovearall good for nothing the price i payed. Those planning to buy this, better go for some other brands and stay away from this. Otherwise you will regret and realise you only got the sony brand logo for the price you paid, with a substandard faulty product.

  • How is the ram management on this phone? Is 2gb ram sufficient? How is the mediatek chipset? Any issues with the performance?

  • XA dual is great device with perfect functions . It supports OTG . battery is average and fast charge . great UI & support , great cameras

  • Dont talk any rubbish abot sony xa its jio fault every ones facing this wit jio

  • Don't even compare iPhone with this phone iPhone has his own standard

  • I buy this phone or no

  • It is good phones xperia new phones you compaire to iPhone

  • i have xa for a week now and no battery issue. battery improved after update, battery can last 1-2days with normal usage. i dont recommend lenovo poor update and lags. I dont know about Mi

  • hi frnds i really like sony xperia xa dual bt it's battery life is low , so should i purchase it or i should go for other brands like Mi and lenovo ....plz suggest !

  • Worst. But changing immediately. Discharging as fast as it was charging

  • Yes. It's tooo smaller capacity and not able to stay even 5hrs

  • Yes. Jio sim working on both sim slots

  • I do not know what's wrong with all of you. my xperia xa works perfectly. speed through LTE I have measured 72Mbps, and with the new update the battery lasts quite a bit longer , one to two days depends on use. software 33.2.a.3.81 R3A F3111 I do not want to offend anyone. this is my opinion on everything that I have read Most of you seems to have no xperia xa .More looks like you hate brand or as mercenaries to talk bad for SONY.

  • No it has nothing to do with network. Sony must have some hardware or software incompatibility. Because there is no where in the setting menu to enable volte or wifi calling. while other brands like samsung,motorola,xiaomi are working on the same network on volte out of the box. SHAME ON SONY.....

  • Yes,the same thing also happened to me after update.Now its taking more time to charge than before.

  • Volte or Voice Over LTE can only be activated by your service provider

  • Before update my phone charge in 1:50 minutes and after update my phone charge in 2:30 minutes. Anybody face this issue

  • I checked manually bro.. ... But still update not showing in my phone..... My current version is 2.B.2.93 Before 3,4 days it was shown in my phone but suddenly it was gone dnt knw how.. ....

  • Did you check manually? After update everything ok but charging takes a little bit long. other than that no other issues found. no heating at all on 4g and back up time seems increased. on jio i got maximum speed at 4am about 40mbps its awsome man...!

  • vey well said pal.. They just want money nothing else... we're giving 21k for this mobile nd they r just giving shit... very dissapointed seriously. even back panel of my xperia xa(19 aug '16) has also faded... within 1 month. I mean seriously... Such a cheap quality this tym... It looking weird... Consumer court might help😣

  • Hey bro suddenly update not showing in my phone.... But before 4,5 days its showz thate update of 788.4 mb... Nd suddnly disappeared..... . When wht do i do.. .. .? 😠

  • Jio works in xa but, there is some problem with volte

  • so... will jio work in xperia xa also or not???

  • Not in xa, But used jio in moto g3 jio 4g speed is 2.39 mbps and airtel 3g speed in xperia m dual is 5 mbps

  • is there anyone use jio in Xperia xa ... does it supports 4G if yes .. then tell me how fast ..... pls help me to make good decision to buy this phone...

  • Updated to new firmware 778mb last night,now performance is lot more better,xperia logo in bottom bar looks premium.No heating after i downloaded 2gb on jio 4g,baterry drops just few parcent.So much satisfied with it now. But what to do about VoLte...!

  • Kindly update new built nm then your battery problem resolve

  • I tried jio 4g sim on my xperia xa dual,i was disappointed to know it doesn't support VoLte.I can use calling feature only if the data connection is on with jio4gvoice application installed.Everything else works good but in moto g4 it is showing VoLte in status bar also calling works even data is off.I think if i turn on the data all day for 4g calling it will drain all my battery quickly.I read somewhere that device is VoLte supported but there is no option in the firmware to enable it. Disgusting.....

  • Yes

  • does the Xperia xa supports for 4G in india

  • Does sony provide format as internal option with this new update??? Can I sd card as internal storage??? Any one please reply who owns opera xa!!!!!!

  • So bad With internet half day without Internet a day.. ..

  • Worst gets heated fast cant load games and worst phone for this price range better go for samsung j7 2016

  • I bought before 2 months now its suddenly touchpad is working without touching

  • Does the 2nd sim slot supports 3/4G..?

  • Yes bro

  • I purchased Sony xa mobile yesterday itself... Battery life worst.sony really disappointed me

  • did sony provided an update for this phone?? guys tell me what happened. mine still the same.. i have xa but single sim

  • Does it supports format as internal function In this way we can make microsd card work as an addition to internal storage

  • Anyone who own xa please tell me how is the battery life??

  • Its mean you don't know how trasfer app to sd card

  • Dude problem is only with lime gold n rose gold, not with black n white if u are saying truth thn post some images of back pannel so that I can choose right phone.

  • Yes.! My xperia xa (graphite black) which is one month old got fade out at back pannel. very dissapointed with sony.... they just want to earn money by graffiti look but even the look is fading out

  • It is a worrest phn. Because if no 🔋 battery backup.

  • I know fnd but sony is best as compare to other companies as i think.

  • @ Raj.. No you can't transfer apps to SD card in XA dual. The main 2 basic features- Internal storage & battery, both are very very less. You will run out of internal memory after using it a few months/installing a few apps,games & will run out of power after 6-7 hrs normal use. I dont think anybody will buy any sony product after using XA dual. Sony should recall all XA dual like Samsung (S7), if they want to do business further.

  • Yes.. I have alsoThe same experience . I have long relationship to Sony product.. But This XA dual terminates the relationship. It appears that Sony is now very careless..only want to earn fast buck. Extremely poor battery.

  • same goes here bro, i feel you. I feel I got robbed, I spent nearly 300 usd (including insurance) for this and my phone was outperformed by 160 usd phones (except for the camera).

  • Any body is facing color fade issue in lime gold and rose gold color plz tell me

  • Did u got andriod N update

  • Worst phone i have used ever in sony ericson mobile range. No battery back up,trememdous heating problem. In short it is not smart phone it is just camera and calling device

  • Hii fnds, am from india and i buy this phone on 25 aug and there is no any issue with this phone. first of all the design of this phone is awesome, overall good. very handy great look, display awesome no need to 1080p screen, camera good front cam is very good according to other company phones. battery is average depend upon usage but it good for me. but after update battery backup is increase. i think the bad this of this phone is memory internal storage is only approximat 6.12gb thats not good. but the advantage is u can move the apps to sd card and also support otg and usb. thnxx

  • Using since 2 months , have system updates done atleast 6 . Battery performance is better now , increased by 50 % I think . Cause my usage etc is the same , last update was 12 days back . I use 2 sims . NO network issues . SAR Value of this phone as provided to me by sony is 0.473 ear W/kg (10g) & on the body SAR value is 0.471 W/kg (10g) . As far as I am concerned the phone is up to proper performance now due to battery life being improved.

  • DO NOT PURCHASE THIS PHONE! to many problemx with sony Xperia XA: - battery - memory - network selection on SIM2 I'm now searching a new phone and put this in the trash

  • Hey frnds...!! I have gone through all the reviews of xperia xa..As I am a moderate user, bettry Is not that big issue for me..Just want ur suggestion for whose camera is good between moto G4 and Xperia XA. Please reply and thankz in advance :)

  • to many problemx with sony Xperia XA: - battery - memory - network selection on SIM2 DO NOT PURCHASE THIS PHONE! stek

  • Plesse help me never buy this product,battery is major issue pls suggest me other mobile budget 23 k

  • bought xa 2 days before...battery backup is ok wid me..bt battery s heating lyk anythn feels lyk an iron box..camera is gud..b4 i ws using z ultra compared to dat xa s below average 1 in case of perfomence

  • I'm using the Sony xa dual. It's the one of the smart phone in looking and performance. One and only a problem that is battery 🔋. And camera is superb fine and sound quality is greater as Sony. So I'm giving the marking 8marks out of 🔟

  • Yup it is fine*

  • Yup bt battery backup is worse if play game or not then also battery backup is same hardly 3-4 hrs

  • p9 lite is better in terms of performance and it is cheaper. xa has a better camera and design but the problem is the battery you can also consider, moto g4, nexus 5x, samsung j7 2016, or the upcoming samsung c5, by just adding around 40 dollars, you can have a 1.2mm slimmer phone with metal body + 3mp on camera, + 2GB on Ram + 130 ppi on screen +a fingerprint sensor.

  • A phone with excellent design, a good camera but a bad battery.. camera and screen resolution is above average but the battery can't sustain it.

  • Works fine for me. Dual SIM is not 3G standby but GSM. I wonder when GSM networks will be switched off, this phone will become one SIM phone. Battery is not large, but very fine for me. If you don't play games, battery is very fine. Camera pics have excellent quality

  • hi guys... i want to buy sony xa plz tell me hows that phone... n is it a dual sim phone? n it has hotspot?

  • Dear friends, Xperia X,XA,XA Ultra Models having a new software updates.kindly update our near by authorized service centers.

  • Love this phone, especially the design, easy on hand and the performance plus camera also not bad. What I really really really disappointed with it, 'battery life'. Just to be save, bring along power banks with you.

  • Unfortunately I bought Sony Xperia XA Dual. Its battery is totally failure. Even when I use IMO to talk just 10 mins talking reduces 10% battery. I also found touch problem with this model. I would not recommend just because of battery and touch issue. However, functionality is fine and feather is great no doubt. SONY! You need to work on battery and touch improvement.

  • Very bad battery

  • does anyone post what does the latest update fix

  • It is a fault device this happens sometimes.

  • I bought this phone last month it was pretty camera was perfect battery was not that much you sleep with 35% wake up with 0% then i started facing charging problem on the 7th day. The phone would charge only when it is switch off so i gave it back . Wander why they sell defective product... Thats all

  • Mr Patrice Desile, you will get 3 or 4gb ram mobile under 20k but with cheap quality made, so don't compare such cheap phones with a brand like sony which will give u good quality in every aspects.

  • Use manual settings, maybe you should change the type of light source in the settings.

  • super phone no complain about phone & battery is so good

  • Xperia M4 aqua is the worst phone ever, sony replace my M4 aqua with XA when I fought with Sony almost 1year

  • I am using this sony xa I don't have any complain about this phone Im happy with it I just noticed something, the camera in lowlight, purple or pink clothes and other things turns to gray. Have you noticed it?????

  • This phone is quite pretty amazing.it's curved display makes it look different. it is good budget phone

  • A new update has been released in 307MB. This must help to solve major problems

  • This phone's look is resemble to samsung s6 edge... which is not affordable, whereas SONY XA. Is the the one you can go for it. Moreover it's Handy phone better in holding it.. Best feature in this phone is that it disconnects the charging when it gets fully charged even if charging pin is inserted. Sane features are in SONY XA ULTRA. Except ram, camera and dimension.

  • does it support otg?

  • Hi, Have anyone update the new software update? Please share your thoughts..

  • Yes it does come along.

  • Ya surely you can go with this phone. But keep in mind that the battery performance is below par but that must be a software problem. You will have to wait for the official fix from sony itself. Otherwise go for it. Also xperia m4 aqua is good. With added waterproofing. Not much difference between two. But XA is stylish than m4 aqua.

  • Hey, have u updated ur XA (F3116) to the latest 33.2.B.2.85? Plz Update, Check the isssues (Mainly BATTERY DRAIN) and PLEASE do let me know. CDA ? Name Version Updated Discovered 1302-4387 Customized IN 33.2.B.2.85-R10A FTF 1 day ago

  • I have an Xperia XA Dual, And I'm using an LTE sim card but my net is so slow. And I have my old Samsung S5 neo and I tried using the same sim but the speed is good. Tsk what should I do?!

  • Will there be any update for the battery drain problem such thst the handset can last for at least one day

  • Not all the apps but some apps can be moved to memory card. Just check the storage option in settings - >app and change the location to memory card.

  • I got a new update adout 32mb today but its a minor update i think because firmware version remains the same.

  • You can't transfer Apps to SD card. It eats up all the internal memory. Zzzz!

  • yes,it support any 3.5mm normal earphone. but you cannot answer call if it has no inbuilt microphone. Anyway i am using sennheiser cx300 II ear buds & the sound quality is very impressive with boomy bass & crispy highs.

  • Thank u... Sennheiser cx series headphone is supported na.

  • U can never transfer app to SD card so don't waste ur time buddy

  • Does anuone know how to transfer the installed apps to SD card?

  • yes,quick charger is bundled with the package,its basically a charger with 1.5 amp current output,but it charges superfast.

  • try the earphone setting last one,it gives heavy bass effect. if you are still not satisfied with your earphone then buy sony earphone models mentioned in earphone settings or sennheiser cx series for awsome sound effect.

  • hai iam using this phone one week main problem battery but quick charging full within i hour camera is wonderfull in day light

  • Hi friends I bought this phone a few days back and loving it. I am trying to configure the camera to save pics / videos in external sd card but can't find the setting. Any help please? Note: The battery is weak but it charges quickly, takes about 50 mins from almost zero to full charge

  • hello friends I bought this phone a few days back and absolutely loving it. I am trying to point the camera to save pics and videos to external micro sd card but can't find the option. Anyone can help please? Note: The battery is quite weak but charges quickly.

  • Yes, it supports otg & data transfer speed is great.

  • Hello frnds.... This phone supports otg

  • Hi frnds... Can I know this phone supports otg

  • Dear sir, My name is Bineesh i would like buy this xa what is your experince with this mobile can i buy this iam eagerly wating for your replay

  • I am confused between xperia xa and bb dtek50 which one to go for..

  • well said,now thats the right question for the chinese tech lovers.i have checked the sony open source archieve, the firmware .73 version is already available for download for devolopers. So this version will be soon officially confirmed.

  • Sir, Can you please give us the list of Smartphones which are under 20k with 5" good looking Edge-to-Edge Display, FM Radio, Dual Sim with Dedicated Memory Slot, Good Memory Management, Good Camera etc. (Other than Battery - Since it is going to be fixed with the next Update as already New Firmware Updates pushed in Some Countries) And Sir, Please name only the BRAND ones, not the Chinese ones... :)

  • Thank U for your Reply! :) Lets' wait for the new update..!

  • I plan purchase that phone it's supports Indian 4g bands and other

  • there is notifaction led?

  • yes,i also heard about that firmware version,but till now no updates available for india.My model is F3116 & build no. 33.2.B.2.35. i hope sony will update the firmware soon to resolve all the issues.

  • Can someone plz post original image of xa who have rose gold and lime gold color.

  • Someone plz share pics of back and front camera in both day light and low light. It will be useful for all of us.

  • Sir, I have a small doubt! Whats it ur XA's Model #? Is it F3112 or F3116? And what is your XA's Build No.? Is it.35 or.73? Since I've heard that .73 Build solves all the Battery issues with XA! Please check and let us know so that it can be useful for all of us. Thank You :)

  • Thank dude I m not worried about low light performance coz most of the mobile camera suffer in low light.

  • Yes Call quality is crystal Clear from both the Ends. Also Internal speaker is loud that i have to set it to less than 50%. So thats a good thing. Moreover main camera is Just Awesome in any condition. Still too much low light (Very Dark Rooms) portraits have noise but here the flash helps a lot. Practically Better camera than other cheap brands of 13MP.

  • how did you extend battery life?

  • truth

  • simply not worth the money. design and build quality is good.but mediatek Soc is not up to mark as compared to qualcomm. battery capacity also not good. xperia x is considerable specs to buy. but sony's asking price is too much. sony is trying to sit on the apple's position. for that sony must have own operating system and processor. sony's 2016 startegy is not good. this will end sony's smartphone business soon.

  • Box type phone with sharp edges..... & iPhone dominated the mobile industry due to their rounded corner shape. Really! Do you own this device or predict from the image,ever hold xperia xa in hand? My advice just go to the nearest sony world & check out the device & after that post your comment here,or keep your iPhone & be happy with that.

  • Best phone around 20,000,good camera quality ,very fast no lags while playing heavy games, but battery drains up quickly

  • In my personal opinion if you are average user except gamer after using this mobile, you just fall in love with it. Its looks so premium & classy. i solved the battery draining issue & its lasting above one day on moderate use now. I am quiet satisfied now. Solution is so simple,just use both the sim in gsm mode,not wcdma or lte. only change the mode when internet connection is required otherwise switch both the sims to gsm only. I observed my airtel sim drains all power in few hours while using in lte preferred mode.When i use it with single Vodafone 3g sim the performance was above exceptions. Those who have battery draining issue kindly change your sim to other network and try it on gsm mode only & post your reply here about the difference.

  • Plz tell me about call quality, is it loud and clear for both side? And how is main camera performance speciali in low light. Thanks in advance

  • ::Xa Dual is Good at this price range.(If you consider buying one from top brands). ::Using a phone since 1 month, No Problems at all. ::Battery drains almost 80% with moderate use of 5 hours (Thats what you can expect with 2300mAh and octa core). ::Main camera is quite good but front capture lots of noise in low light.(Better in good lightings) ::Data speed over net +Switching between apps + Processing Speed is awesome (Best of Class Helio P10 Chip is the reason) ::A True Octacore (No Two Quad Cores) ::If battery drain is issue than charging is quickest with bundled Charger (90 Mins. from 6% to 100%) ::For fast charging UCH10 from sony is the option to buy one ::Overall 8/10 (-2 Only and Only For Battery draining) *P.S> Above mentioned discription is from personal use. SONY didnt gave me anything for that. Buyers can rely on this purely PERSONAL review.

  • sir I am a student. I am planning to get xperia xa dual.There are lots of bad opinions about the battery.I would be using social networks and browsing most of the times. I wont be involved in gaming mostly.What will be the battery if I supposed to be using it

  • I owe Xperia Xa dual, now i feel it will be better if i have bought Xperia M4 aqua dual at same prize with just slight less clock speed and with Water proofing added. Please suggest your opinions.

  • lg stylus 2 is much better device as compair this one

  • This is my review after using the device about a week. Battery life is ok,can lasts one day easily with normal usage. in heavy usage always screen on about 5hrs. Very quick charging 100% in less then 1and half hours. Audio quality on earphone Awsome,Out of the world on my sennheiser ear buds. Front camera quality in daylight is excellent,in night suffers a bit. Low light selfies not so good,lots of noise. But in good light its nice. Screen display quality Very good,sharp enough for 720p,no need of 1080p. Touch response & ui very responsive,no hanging issues. Call quality very good & loud on both earpiece & speakerphone. Built in speaker is not loud enough to listen music or watching videos. Only issues i found is heating. Heats most while using the camera about few minutes. However it doesn't heat while charging. little bit warm while watching hd movies or downloading content from internet. In my opinion every handset has positive & negative aspects. if you can adjust with the negative side,then its the best. Don't go for cheap Chinese phone,you really can't get that experience which can't be expressed while holding such a beauty from sony.

  • How is the battery life? Battery Performance??

  • Im just forwarding the solution for massive battery draining for XA. (Software error leads to sleep mode failure) Solution for now:

  • Very good phone, using for the past 2 weeks. simply awesome.

  • Try lime gold, looks awesome, black and white phones are too common.

  • Forget about gaming on this device, it's not meant for that. For me I play games on my i pad, I use my XA only for social networking like: Facebook, what's app, viber, line, etc and it barely lasts for a day. The only downside of this awesome phone is its battery life, else everything is superb. I love my XA.

  • Good phone. D Love camera amazing. Phone God battery. Backup. But one and haf day

  • if only Sony had put a better battery, this would have been the best phone its really sad.:-(

  • Go for xa, much better camera, design, benchmark performance, best ui I can say nothing about battery .

  • Yes, heats when u use gaming apps or video shooting

  • Battery life is poor with normal use, only 12 hours. with videos only 4-5 hours.

  • Which coliyr looks classy between white and black

  • yeah a good phone for mid range.. lookiing good & working better than my old samsung s4 mini

  • You can also use the battery stamina for this.

  • there is a new update for the battery, -problem with wifi- has the battery life improved after that? please check and let us know confused between samsung galaxy A5 2016 AND sony XA Dual

  • Battery back up is very poor , i use to charge twice in a day after normal use its not giving 1 day battery back up .

  • i bought xperia xa 1week before... i am using from 1 week. and honestly its . not a worth for the money. design looks. camera. overall performance is good but battery!!! battery sucks...!! its drain quickly even on normal usage... not giving of one day of backup.. i charged it twice in a day.. and while taking photos its heat quickly and camera take little time to open.. but that not matter much.. the main desadvantage is battery.. worst battery backup...

  • battery drains very fast.... and with 2300mah it almost feels like a landline ....always wired for charge !!!!!

  • Short battery life

  • Battery drains quickly in normal usage also. I contacted Sony Customer Service but they are giving all nonsense replies. Its not a worthy Phone.

  • some one please post honestly on the battery life ? how long does it last with normal usage?

  • What about battery life?

  • I buy sony xa one week ago its look so stylish easy to carry n edge to edge display were look stunning,seriously paisa vasul smartphone,better than Moto g4 and g4 plus

  • You buy english grammar book first.

  • I was buy sony m4 aqua last year but its hetting too much. When i m playing games its gone a hit as like as owan......so i replaced it with samsung brand but seriously i am bored with this brand. So plz tell shall i buy xa?? Is there any heating isssu..????

  • Hello friends I've waited for the release of Xperia XA for the past one month n bought it on the release date itself. As usual everything is excellent in the phone except the battery backup. I need to charge it more than twice a day for the normal use itself. Also device getting hot even for the normal use. Except these problems, other things were perfect.

  • Go for xa, new moto mobiles looks like used

  • Someone pliz give a Xiaomi Redmi Note 3 to the executives of Sony conpany, this might help them to get some senses...Sony u r living in stone age era

  • What the hell...!!!! I think sony has gone mad, pliz survey the smartphone market first...20k of this phone???? Really....????? Thats y, ur smartphone is sinking deep with great losses....good luck

  • I have used K10.It is not so good.So go to buy XA of sony,please!

  • NEVER buy any xperia cell phones! Their SERVICE is worst i have got from my past experiences.once i was a big fan of xperia now not anymore.Good phones but worst services!

  • Sony Phones are just expensive comparing to their provided features? I mean you'll get 3 or 4 GB of RAM under 20k where they are offering only 2

  • This is sony.u can accept a excellent battery life or standby mode or excellent design or build quality . This is going to be champ over online bussiness where you cant see what u are buying. U can buy 2 phone in 10k price over its specs. But u cant buy sony believe . So go for xperia xa .it gona be paisa wasul by its onova technology for awesome battery life.

  • I am tired and got sick and frustrated of waiting this phone, i think sony should revise the time frame btw announcment and release

  • Guys, I own Xperia M4 Aqua dual.. But after seeing XA, I'm totally Love with edge-to-edge display!! - Should I get it; What y'all say?

  • guys should i go for this or moto x style? in my country they got the same price.

  • Close your eyes n go for xa

  • I used Sony w8,sp,e4 and im happy with all Sony product. I gave my e4 to my sist so thought of buying another one.pliz suggest vivo v3,j7,LG k10 or Sony xa

  • Does anyone already own it? What's the battery life pls?

  • Of course it's a Sony high performance mid Ranger.

  • No heating problem, cheaper than M5

  • You are right but Samsung fan forget about their pricey product..

  • Why would you buy this instead of an M5? I can't see any advantages except Android 6 but several disadvantages (worse screen, not waterproof etc). I was about to buy an M5 when I noticed this model and I just want to verify my impression. Appreciate feedback!

  • Bro wats d price of a7 2016? Compare it wit dis n see, camera, design, display also the processor is way better than that. Samsung is using the last year processor and charging high price than dis. shamesung fans plss...

  • look better, but specification not better according to price...!!!

  • You can't play cytus on this :(

  • 2300m battery?

  • No one can beat sony in designing of smartphone, its reliability.

  • Waiting for this eagerly.currently im using e4.

  • Gorgeous/Beautiful looking mid-range phone that looks like high-end flagship. Can't wait to get my hands on this and to those yapping of it no waterproof/gg4/blahblahblah then go buy Xperia X or X Performance. Use your braincells for once in your life.

  • i want this

  • Sony Xperia's YouTube channel said it will launch summer

  • This one is excellent. I want to buy it.

  • you cant downgrade to a phone that came out after the phone you have currently

  • When will X series be launch?? Anyone knows?

  • It's not waterproof....No thanks.

  • It will be 2500 range

  • Its wonderful phone!!!!!! I hope it may range 10000 to 15000 as it compares Redmi note 3!!! Hope it prices around ₹15000

  • This is damn good looking phone I'm considering downgrading my Z5 to this phone

  • wt about battry life to play coc

  • because your phone is not a piano, so why you need to use your 10 finger

  • Very sweet device with the lovely design so far. Sony make ,you believe. .. the day to day performance that matters ..... Plz Sony, don't price it too high

  • yeah i sometimes use 5 fingers including my while deploying troops

  • SONY always make a best ratio to battery and resolution... Don't worry:) XA's battery happily lasts for 2 days...

  • Have you ever used your phone with 5 fingers including thumb?? Pointless complain LOL:)

  • GSM gave it high reviews. Hehe

  • Battery 2300 ? weird

  • Seriously guys... This is probably Sony's budget level phone with those specs so there's really nothing to rant about since it is expected. Go for X or X Performance if you want a much high spec phone with a steeper price of course.

  • I like it size is small and not too heavy.

  • good but why only 4 fingers multitouch ??

  • good phone but 2300 mAh battery is too week...

  • big bezels in top and bottom and no dual speaker.also 2300m battery is too weak.

  • mediate with 2300m battery????????????!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! no thanks

  • Nice design sony!

  • i think that this is good....
