Sony Xperia XA Ultra - User Reviews

  • here are some advantages, good camera 21MP take good pictures, has good lighting, processor is MediaTek MT6755 powerful enough to handle big games, its similar to snapdragon 625, big screen, good 16 megapixel front cam, with flash, disadvantages, battery life is ok, i mean at work and your not on it till 11-12PM its at like 60-65% screen is to wide barely any bezell on sides of phone, screen is almost like an edge screen, and, yeah but otherwise it is a good phone

  • Great very big phone, Excellent camera, One big drawback,,,,,,,,,, poor battery,,,,,,,

  • I use this phone almost 3 years until now its good for gaming etc.

  • Today i got system update....can anybody knows what new system

  • Using this phone for almost 1.5 years now all of a sudden my phone won't get charged I don't know what happened. Last week to get 10% charge I had to keep the mobile for whole day now the mobile is dead. Any solutions. .. although phone shows red blink which represents charging but phone won't get harged

  • Visit ur service centre for update

  • its a great phone, camera quality is awesome, altho iv seen a iphone 7plus focus on words on newspaper better, but i love the 21MP camera, 6 inch screen is great for viewing, to wide though you end up messing up phone by hitting random apps, due to screen, phone is made well, i dont like the fact that the rim of the phone are separate instead of one piece and battery life could be bigger and better like 3200mAh instead of a 2700mAh battery altho it will last you the whole day at work if you use it wisely processor is really fast, mine was a fast processor even tho i had huge apps on it so yeah, great phone but some things about it i wish were fixed

  • so what is the advantages and disadvantages of sony xperia xa ultra?

  • Yes I agree with you. I had mine about a year and a half and mine! The fon freezes a lot and the memory gets full for no apparent reason. I have to turn fon off and restart it every time to get it working again. It really sucks.

  • After using it for 1 year, I can say it has great cameras (Both front and rear) but the video color reproduction and the auto-focus on the selfie cam are terrible. I never had any issue with it's performance, although I only use it for social media, music and light-gaming. It fell off my hands multiple times on different heights (Almost uncountable and without any phone cases or screen protector) and only presented some minor scratches on the sides. The only things I had issues with, were the storage and about a week ago the display stopped functioning correctly (It's a shame, it was a really good display even under sun legibility conditions). The battery isn't that bad if you activate the stamina mode and put brightness to the minimum, with normal use it lasts the whole day without charging. But overall, it is a great phone if you look for good cameras and regular social media usage. Please, ignore if I mispelled something. I'm latin-hispanic btw.

  • Have been using this phone for almost 2 years and here are my insights Pros: Good camera both front and back Good gaming phone Multitasking is fine Durable too, It often slip my hand, fell on my bed, fell on my table, squeezed on my bag or body while sleeping but its still on one piece. Cons: Camera takes too long to shoot photos (though results are really great) Battery life is too short since screen is too big (always bring powerbank) Display blinks when brightness is changed from low to high (LCD got replaced by service center) Bad cooling system, easily gets hot while gaming. Small Internal storage (got only 10gb of storage, eventhough I bought 64gb sdcard, I can't install many apps since I can't transfer every single app on SDCARD) Overall this phone is great and served its purpose on me.

  • Hi, i have been using this phone for almost 1 year, i was very disappointed with this phone, i got attracted to this phone because of its camera, first things first, i got display issues during the first six months, i got it replaced since i was in the warranty period, but what to say i got another issues, both of my camera were out, it shows camera not available, i rushed into the service center, they told me i have to replace the camera module, what a waste of my money. never ever to sony again.

  • easy to get hot during video call

  • Dears i got this phone xaperia xa ultra from almost 10 months i was shocked from phone performance 1- the camera was very very slow 2- the internal memory is full out very fast & its clear if i only restart the phone 3- finally as this phone price & category i thought that this phone is waterproof or water resistances as most of Sony phones but i shocked when the phone is dead because couple of drop of water ,and now the agent need to make me pay almost the price of the phone again to fix it now i have to pay double of the phone price while the phone spices doesn't worth half of it original price

  • NO

  • Is this phone getting oreo update? Pls answer

  • Hi, I have this phone for about 1 1/2 years now. Performance wise its decent for a mid-range phone. Signal is great on this phone especially mobile data (using GLOBE from PH). Camera is decent but a bit slow at times. Battery is small for the LCD size, from my usage (heavy mobile data user) last less than 12 hrs.

  • Mtk the most horrible chipset ever built, gps very bad, very fast hot and battery sucker

  • Thais phone is very good for some one who doesn"t spent most of his life to play games or watch videos,it does every thing I need and low price is the bonus.

  • what is a good phone to get all I see are bad reviews for all the phones ive been looking at?! I sure as hell don't wanna spend $1,000 on a phone but im seeing such bad reviews for everything

  • Not much good for me. Internal memory is too low. 16GB. unable to move some app to SD card. not good for me. battery also bad.

  • The phone is good but battery is very poor. Camera is 21 Mp but not that as I expected.

  • just a poor battery otherwise a good phone .

  • Its a great overall phone. My last android is Samsung tab 1 and used it for 6 years. When I got this I am skeptical at first because of the size screen size difference. In the end, I am very satisfied on everything hardcore use, photography, app and games in this don't have any errors. Except that i dint want to try to root this yet like my previous android.

  • Bought it 2 years ago, overall it's not bad. But some things do not like 1. The camera is 21mp, but the picture not as good as I expected. Quality is OK not good. 2. It's quite heavy, I used Xperia D5316 before, it's much light to carry. D5316 do not make my pant's pocket feel heavy, but XA Ultra is heavy. 3. It has a bit Bluetooth and Wifi issue sometimes. When you turn both bluetooth and Wifi on together. It may cause connection problems. Have to restart the phone to get it fixed. Overall it's not bad, but I prefer to buy Samsung or LG next time.

  • After one year of using phone, everything works okay, except one issue that I found. Issue was speaker sound, sometimes after unlocking device, there is no any sound from speaker for 5-7 seconds, after that time passes, sound is back and working again, no problems. I'm amazed of it's display colors and also camera, I'm fan of big screen phones, so love this device

  • This phone sucks, I've had it since a year ago and what i can say it's that don't trust those specs showed. My f3213 freezes a lot, is very slowed, the 16gb are always full, the screen sees blueish and i dont like it.

  • six months after i bought the phone. my battery & charge barely worked!! i did nothing wrong!!! phone still looks brand new, but will not come on or charge period!!! sony lied & gave me the runarounds!! making sure my warranty was over!!

  • Am using Sony Phones from past serial years, Sony Ericsson W300 was my first phone Xperia X10 mini pro was second Xperia C 2305 was third Xperia C5 Ultra Dual was forth & last Xperia XA ultra dual - F3216 Had bought this phone 18 months ago, as soon as warranty period over phone stared giving issues, Phone automatically get switched off (Phone shows error of Sim card removed & get switched off), had done Factory Reset twice, however same problem occurring. When i contacted Sony Service Center(SSC) they informed me that the issue is in Motherboard & to replace MB have to pay approx. INR 8140.00/- with the warranty of 03 months only. Am confused whether can I go ahead with MB replacement with only 03 month warranty, Had purchased this phone (Marshmallow v 6.0) in @ INR 24000/- now had to pay 8140.00 = 32140/- + it cannot be upgraded to Android – 8.0 Oreo, Android 9.0 P has already been announced or Buy new phone with latest version,

  • Using this for 6 months only and a yellow stain starts to appears at the borders of my screen.

  • Bought this as the camera was said to be very good sadly the camera is very poor taken back to the outlet and they have checked it and say it is okay nothing wrong would not recommend to any one worst dat was when I let my Lg go it was a great phone and the camera knocked spots off this never again ..

  • I am also having same issues, factory reset is not at all helpful, can anyone have solution

  • After using just for one year (warranty just expired recently) now phone auto shuts down every time even at full battery level. i have already done a factory reset and still the problem was not solved. then i got a local service man to repair the IC and installed the latest version. but unfortunately phone still shuts down and can not start. need to keep about 10 minutes then switch on. But again shuts down if connected to internet. Can someone tell me what is this issue and what is the solution for this?

  • Sony mobile is good but this x peria xa ultra very bad battery as need to improvement battery side .

  • Poor Battery Life

  • This is just a fundamental phone of SONY. A few advanced functions. 21MP camera but the picture is not the best...

  • Hello can anyone please tell me the pros and cons of this phone

  • After one year of use....i tell you that this phone is really nice and awesome...good looking,good performance, amezing UI, no complaints about battery life, and all ways this is a very good mid ranger from Sony...you must go for it without any doughts...belive me.

  • After one year of use....i tell you that this phone is really nice and awesome...good looking,good performance, amezing UI, no complaints about battery life, and all ways this is a very good mid ranger from Sony...you must go for it without any doughts...belive me.

  • This is great phone for me,every thing is perfect,but one thing 6" display,it"s best to stream video,for browsing any thing,how to carry it now when You have only jeans pocket,it"s just doesn"t fit.I pooled out from drawer my old BB Q10 and use it,till get cold.

  • It is already more than a year, and I appreciate the performance of this phone. It never gives me headache, I like it the most since it has 3gb RAM. No loading moments. It also depends on how you take good care of it. I really love it. The only thing is, its really hard to look for availabe phone cases, and tempered glass for this phone. Overall, good phone 👍.

  • which is better people: xperia xa ultra , huwaei nova plus, honor 9 lite ?

  • I have ordered for this phone I hope i will not get a shock of my life

  • Any maker,Android platform, does the same-one big update for midrange phones,then only security patches. When You buy high end device,you have two years support and if You are lucky,can get two OS update,if released in that period.

  • -Because they want you to buy the new Xperias

  • Good phone. Small battery is not a problem, I get two days on one charge. Too bad it doesn't have double tap screen wake. Unfortunately, this model has a long history of wifi problems. Not connecting, authentication failure, losing wifi for no good reason. Restart usually helps, but how many times can you restart your phone??? If you go to Sony support forum, there are multiple threads about that. Sony support people know that it's beyond repair, so they are instructed to pretend that something is wrong with your router (even if you have ten other devices connected to it).

  • Note 4

  • Don't buy this phone because Sony has announced that they will not rollouts oreo for this phone only for this phone and another phone got Oreo 8.0 like xperi xa1 ultra, xa1 etc why Sony will not rollouts Oreo for xa ultra anyone has an answer ??

  • when I put my micro sd cad at first to this device it erase all the data in it automatically... :'( plz don't put your sd cad without any backup .

  • This phone really works for me,I don"t mind to switch on and off data,or wi-fi,disabled some apps that I don"t use,keep location off-mostly,this save me battery life.Display is great,speaker just the best,not stereo though,have it around 70% on and microphone too good,reception is great,even in places that I didn"t have with Iphone,don"t use much camera but still make good photo by my opinion.This phone makes every thing I need and even more,don"t see reason to look around,hope Sony will change the list for Oreo update and XA Ultra will be included too.I think this phone not for person who like to keep screen on more than 5 hours per day and not for heavy gamer,the rest will be happy to use it.

  • I am using this phone. One of the worst phone i ever used. It's having many software issue. Very bad user interface. Very Poor camera experience. Not recommend to buy.

  • Im using this phone for over a year. One thing I dislike is i got a single sim!well my bad coz i ddnt checked it. Its battery life is only 2700maH, so unbelievable for a 6.0" display. The camera is great but not too good for low lighting on rear cam. and the worst part is its internal memory of 10gb which is not enough for an android esp for updating apps.The satisfying part for me is its selfie cam of 16mp which is so natural. Im planning to buy huawei nova 2i to replace this first sony phone i have. Still im thankful for its service..:)

  • I'm going to buy this phone even at 2018. what i loved is it\'s Black charming look? i have heard about UI and camera problem. what is it plz reply honestly. and, does this phone supports Google's Face Unlock feature? Thanks in advance.

  • I had the same problem,but not now,I downloaded theme from Sony,different from the one that come with device,more beautiful and never have request to close UI.

  • Yea i don't know why uni always forced to close

  • I can't recommend this model to anyone, I have used this model more than one year and the back camera is more than pathetic... Very poor experience. Also it's internal memory after some media uses not reliable. I love Sony devices but for this... A big No

  • This phone easily overheats and thermal throttles itself. Don't bother buying this piece of crap

  • This is my first Android phone,last 5-6 years used Blackberry7, 10 devices and Lumia phones,but nothing to do both get to EOL. I"v got used XA Ultra,around 1.5 years old,but from friend who really well took care of it,He just like me dosen"t use much apps only calls,sms,email,browser,some music,makes photo occasionally(documents)scanner and so on.I have to say wowwww,for that purpose this is my best phone ever. I have zero problem with reception,in Toronto freedom mobile,just like Blackberry,call quality is outstanding,much better then the phones I used before,great speaker to listen music,Screen just wow-best for mid ranger,battery is good too for my usage,metal frame+ Naugat updated,Sony UI is great,smooth,fast scrolling when ever I try......... Very good phone for person like me,of course not the fastest device in the market,not best camera and so on ,but any phone have it"s advantage and disadvantage,pros and cons,I just found good phone to get used to Android OS with out braking the bank,it"s free for me. So for me 9 out 10,why not 10 out 10 bcs nothing is perfect in this world,even phones 1000$ have cons.Don"t expect from this device performance like Iphone 8 or Galaxy 8 and You will be OK.

  • Yes.you can use for this your choice . But you can use this one day

  • I loved this phone the minute I saw its size, price and camera. It was relatively good at first sight and I'm not the richest person in the world so I went for it. The only game I did play on it was Legacy of Discord: Furious Wings and the app ran very smoothly (but I unistalled it soon after because it became boring). However, this phone's storage eventually drove me insane. I found myself resetting it every 2-3 months after all the bloatware build up and honestly I wasn't going very easy on it either. I have a whole bunch of social media apps I use and others such as Wattpad and DeviantArt which I don't see others use very often. Though I did have a bunch of apps for "just in case", I'd install them very early on and that'd be it. The phone eventually would start filling with other bloatware I did not need to the point where system UI would shut down. I'd go through my album every once in a while to make sure I'm not that person that has thousands of useless screenshots that eat up space for no reason, clear my downloads regularly and clean app cache every day. So might I remind you, I install all my apps after resetting my phone and I still have about 4-5GB of memory left on it. From that point on I don't install anything. I did have a lot of music, but it was on the memory card. So might I ask as to how 4-5 GB of "free space" out of the 10GB (not 16GB, cause there's the bloody system) gets filled that bloody fast? The camera was also nowhere as good as I hoped it would be, so for a rating... This phone gets an unstable 7/10 from me.

  • Would you guys recommend me this phone in 2018? Iam notva gamer. Just For daily use, youtube and camera sometimes.

  • Great review. People must recognize that this is a low-cost phone. The 2 things that annoy me most is battery life (solved by carrying an external battery charger) and the low memory (16 gig). Oh yeah, and the memory-hogging bloatware that cannot be removed. Other than that, serves my needs well. I love the big screen, which was the feature that attracted me to this phone. I don't play high end games. It plays media well, and the sound quality through headphones is good (it powers my full-size Akai phones well). If you don't need a Samsung Galaxy 8, get this phone for 1/3 the price.

  • Very good sony phone,best in xperia series,using it for 2 months, no problems only rarely system UI forces close but Okay, display is very good 3 Gb ram handles everything smoothly maybe once it slutters while playing high end games and definitely better than other sony phones in this price segment. Sony xperia and pixel series are the best sturdy tech phones for guys whereas girls can go for iphones being very delicate.

  • And what?

  • Very bad battery performance

  • worst mobile phone....no more sony xperia

  • This phone is garbage, don't waste your money. The phone storage was so low and the system UI is always forcing close.

  • If you receive Whatsapp's IMAGE message from friends more than 200 per day is maybe not enough but for about 20~30 that is just fine, it is better to move the Whatsapp photos to save in the SD card, I just never try it yet. I also use the Facebook and Messager at the same time, but Facebook is a ram sucker, so I use the Chrome or other browsers to launch the Facebook webpage it pretty decent. I also try out Facebook-lite-version it is just framing the layout like an app but the Chrome is much faster. I suggest 2018 should have at least 32GB internal storage like XA1 Ultra.

  • how to make a video call through the 4g network, how it possible that a 2017 phone dose not support video call

  • This phone is pathetic, my sister and me buyed it together, in two months my rare camera bacome blur, I gave it costumer service, they changed camera and gave back to me, then in one month my sister's camera got blur, she gave it to costumer care, they changed camera, then in 2 moths Mike of my phone stopped working, I can tell a story about this phone, finally we changed phone in a year. My suggestion is plz don't waste your Money, u will get better phones in same cost

  • Which is better charger for sony xperia xa ultra. Uch10, uch12 or uch20??

  • The internal memory is very little which is not usable. The default memory leave around 8GB for your install apps. Whatsapp restoration cannot be done on this phone. Btw, the Whatsapp can't move to SD card also. It is really unusable when it is 2018.

  • Sony xa ultra

  • The camera is so far so good to quite nice, but the low light selfie must remember enable the Night Portrait flash when selfie at the flash options then it did capture a better picture. Nice bezel to grab with finger when selfie and attached a selfie stick is work like a charm because give a hand posture in picture will trigger the shutter and the IOS work well most of the time (because a big shaking any IOS will failed the stability) , you still have time to change any posing in a short while . All the app can't transfer to SD card, but the photo video and music are allow to save or transfer into the SD card. Other pros are the 6inch beautiful screen with very nice sunlight readability and the night comfortable reading too. Responsive UI with theme and one-handed operations. Super loud mono speaker at the bottom. Dedicated camera button. Qnovo charging technology. NFC. Nice Xperia apps...cons is battery endurance not for massive gamer, but moderate usage for one day with stamina mode on is acceptable for using Whatsapp Facebook YouTube some games, messaging and calls etc. Hope the Oreo updates will bring better endurance.

  • Friend can some body tel me about this device about camera about everything and one thing want to ask special can I transfer or save all my apps in memory in this Sony device bcoz I have seen on a website that cannot save any app from mob to memory..card... pls let me know guys thanks,,,,,

  • So what did you expect for $ 180, you got a repaired copy.Next time, buy a new device for a normal price.

  • I paid $150.00 over at eBay last Dec.2016 ....

  • Need your opinion: XA Ultra at 240 USD or XA1 at 214 USD?

  • i bought it for $180 on black friday from Amazon. after two months of usage as my primary phone i can honestly say it is a piece of garbage. Even though there's 3 gb of ram, apps like facebook, instagram, dropbox, photoshop, etc constantly hang and freeze. 75% of the time I can't even open Instagram - i just see a black or white screen. Pressing on the home or back buttons do nothing. This occurs in a lot of other programs too, so its just not Facebook's fault. well I'm sure their apps aren't optimized either, but for a mid-tier phone with 3 gb of ram to be this slow is ridiculous.

  • Price from Sony was S$348.89. Offered to me as replacement for C5 ultra.

  • can we youse the double whaps in this phone .

  • It depends on the price, if it is noticeably lower than the xa1 ultra then yes, if not then the xa1 ultra is way better.

  • Mia1

  • 4G

  • Bought it back in July'2016. The phone looks look, has a strong solid body and the OS is pretty fast for its price to date but (1) the battery life sucks. The worst part is that the battery is non-removable. Anyways, without a power pack (portable charger), it will be dead as a brick in no time. I mean it takes like 10 hours to go from 100% to 0% charge (I am a heavy user). Lucky for me, mine is a desk job so its getting charged most of the time. (2) The camera takes ages to save the picture once clicked. (3) Also, had the issue of the person on the other side not being able to hear me. This was solved by the software update though. The update needed 900 MB of internal memory to be freed. So, I had to uninstall so many of my favorite apps :( (4) I am not a gamer but the phone heats up with video calls too. verdict: I would not recommend this to a friend.

  • which is better ???? Sony XA ultra OR Redmi mi note 4

  • 2g

  • is this 3G or 4G ?

  • You have to install the updates. This issue should disappear after. Success!!!

  • this is a decent phone if youre not a gamer. the only issue here is the batt. you know what i mean.

  • i bought this in Singapore last May so far so good. i don't have casing and tempered glass and I'm clumsy my phone always fell in the floor but Thanks God still good the screen still ok and no scratches. but it heats up a lot if i use camera and i play games. so i uninstall all my games.. 😁

  • had this phone for a year, works great with 2 minor gripes that dont matter of your not picky. battery life is bad, need to recharge sometimes during the day. and the camera app can be a little slow at times. but takes great pictures and has very good screen, and its been very realiable, the new version (xpera xa1 ultra) fixes all this

  • Hello people is it worthy if I buy xa ultra pleade some one guide me :)

  • bought xa ultra and not had any problems reasons for getting hot is playing games on it is making battery working harder also everyone can hear me put the mic volume up while on phone

  • HI I got my Xperia XA Ultra on mid october 2017. i am happy with the functions but about a week later my friend complains she cannt hear what I am saying but I could hear her clearly. And this happened couple of times and my colleague who is using Xperia C5 told he also faced the same incident and when he switch on the speaker and switched off the speaker the issue fixed. So me too practicing the same thing. Is anyone else had faced this incident and got any permanent fix. Pls share. Thx

  • Is it just me or this phone heats up really fast? Just playing games for a couple of minutes and the phone heats up pretty bad. It also has wifi issues.

  • I also use this phone but my camera and network so many poor 7.0

  • after installing nougat version, my front camera is not working anymore and some application too. im using the latest update of nougat for my experia

  • Good review, very informative

  • what happened after the noug update? did it made your phone better? just asking coz im still at marsh now and im afraid making update makes my phone worst. i dont have any bad experienced in my unit so far. i just need your personal experience pal. tnx in advanced...

  • hi try to factory reset your phone

  • hi there can anyone help me after i update my xa ultra to 7.0 i cant connect to wifi my wife connect button is not enable/not visible can any one help me..thanks :(

  • I got the phone in December 2016 and I can say that overall it is an excellent phone, the speed of the processor, the camera is all great. But there are two small drawbacks: 1) speaker - on the speakerphone I did not hear, with the update it passed, but the noise started; 2) the screen - when the phone overheats, it reacts badly, sometimes it does not answer at all. Reboot in this case, you can only pull out the memory card and sim card.

  • Really happy to have this smartphone, the camera captures high quality image and I can use many function to enhance image quality such as HDR. Big screen makes me comfortable to read news. Love this phone

  • yeah I got that Screen problem 2 weeks ago after using only 1 week....my touch pad didn't work and screen got blue strips..today I got the phone....after repairing....luckily I had Hardware and software warranty ...........

  • Guys plz help me out here... Does this phone get internal patches on screen after using some day??...any screen issue with this phone??..plz

  • hi, does any user from malaysia here? please i need your review. thanks b4

  • just a question... Did sony had already fixed the problem after the nougat update? i already had noug update since 5mos ago but i decided to stay at marsh for still lot of bad comments after updating that time. DID THOSE PROBLEM FIXED NOW? I need ur comments guyz pls... tnx..

  • The worst mobile ever, I have been three times in a year without it, because I have to take it to repair, the screen is the worst!!

  • Headphone jack is not working and keeps malfunctioning.

  • can this be upgraded to oreo as well after upgrading to nougat?

  • This phone looks so elegant and premium, I have not met anyone yet guessed price of this phone less than $500. But, that's said, looks can be deceiving and in XA Ultra case, it is and it is not, because looks hint that it is a premium product but price says otherwise, which is around $200- $250 depends where you shop as of October 2017. This phone doesn't have fingerprint reader, at least the US version, because of some legal patent issues. You can still find the international version with that hardware. This phone also doesnt have double-tap screen wake up, which has been a standard since at least 2014. I would think that the lack of fingerprint reader should have made double-tap wake a priority. I mean, can this brother have his cake and eat it too? I am aware I am making too many first world complaints, but this is where you make your money. Besides, a phone that runs on Nougat and will be upgraded to Oreo soon, that is disappointing. Screen is simply gorgeous and even in direct sunlight, it does look like as if it is in a dark room, still crisp and no glare with its very thin bezels.Phone's adaptive brightness truly works. Watching videos on XA Ultra's giant screen is very entertaining. However, from many forums and users photos, I noticed this phone and many other Sony phones are very prone to burn in images, ghost images and image retention, whatever you call it. Lets compare it to its class of to mid or low range devices. One thing truly matters that tops many other brands operating on android, even Samsung and LG and that is the updates. This is a mid-range or low end phone as price wise. So, performance is not there. It struggles badly with antutu benchmark, only scores about 45000. That in practice means, even though this phone offers a great viewing for gaming, do not expect to play any graphic intensive games, it will only disappoint you. Sound on this phone is quite surprising, built in player and sound modes out of the box by Sony are impressive. Just to compare, it is pretty lame for LG to put out a phone like V20 and not have a LG built music player with sound presets, if user has to download an app to enjoy a product's most advertised feature, that feature is only adequate, even still very premium. Sony's Smart Connect app can be downloaded to make XA Ultra more smart and more streamlined for your media consumption. This phone proves an age old myth. And that is, high MP camera doesnt mean anything at all. XA Ultra has almost twice the pixel density of Google Pixel and mostly standard pixel offerings of 12 or 13 MP of 2017 across the industry. Camera has dedicated shutter button, but that is not a novelty any longer, since most phones allow volume rocker to be used as shutter on camera mode. Photos do not get stabilized and come out blurry if not held firmly. Low light scenarios are more than disappointing, 16MP front and 21MP back cameras do less than mediocre job in low light settings. Some phones 5MP cameras can do far better job. This is my question, how can so many phone manufacturers brag about having Sony lenses on their products, while Sony itself puts such underperforming lenses on their products? That is like someone has a pizza shop and they sell their prime sauce to another pizza shop and they use hunt's tomato sauce, because it is more profitable doing so, without taking pride in their own product. Lets compare it to its class of to mid or low range devices. One thing truly matters that tops many other brands operating on android, even Samsung and LG and that is the updates and manufacturer support. Sony is simply the best brand with updates and support on android. More Sony phones will be upgrading to Android 8.0 Oreo than any other brand and mostly before any other brand in late 2017 or early 2018. XA Ultra is one of them to get Oreo upgrade. For those who doesnt know how those upgrades matter, it really improves anything from battery life or security to user experience. Even though, as of September 2017, there are still more devices run on android 4.0 KitKat than Android 7.0 Nougat, just try to use a Kitkat phone and a Nougat phone side by side. So, someone who doesnt play graphic extensive games, who doesnt care his/her email will take 0.03 second less to open than Samsung Galaxy 8, who thinks fingerprint sensor doesnt matter at all or the double-tap, but likes watching a lot of videos on his/her phone and finally do not have more than $200-$250 budget for a phone, this phone should be on your top 5 list.

  • Well, I can say that this cell phone has disapointed me somehow, it is not what I expected. The camera only takes great pic during the day, at night it sucks, for real, flash light is kind of dimmed. Internal storage is rediculous, I can only download 4 or 5 apps out of the ones the phons brings. Battery, uff! It runs out so fast, I start day 100% by early night, it is almost dead. On the other hand, size is great, colors not that bright, but ok.

  • Poor Network Poor Network Poor Network

  • Great cellular phone, all problems had been solved after updating the android 7.

  • Also I have this problem

  • Great phone!

  • Over heating of xperia phones is very usua! It becomes super Hot!!😤😡🤣

  • after update solved voice calling problem

  • To be honest i have no problems fast charge long battery duration fantastic camera and its very responsive. Maybe you guys bought 1 defective or idk.

  • First of all, Battery is worst is in this phone. The phone takes hours to charge but doesn't last even hour very well. Secondly, Call quality is not good always and the person who is listening has difficulty sometimes to hear us. Last but not least GPS is also very poor 9 out of 10 times it doesn't guide you to the destination. It gets lost in between. Will not recommend anyone to buy it not just this phone but any sony. Worst experience and will not recommend anyone to buy it.

  • You must have purchased a fake or defective piece

  • This is an awful phone, I regret the moment I bought it, it's simply poor in every aspect possible; First of all it freezes while I'm browsing my pictures, then the audio quality of call is very poor (the worst) and finally the Bluetooth connectivity is below average. Definitely my worst buy so far.

  • I received the update but did not apply it as there is no info for whats in it. Have you noticed any changes to the UI or its functionality?

  • Received a 700+MB of update .... installed it and phone got rebooted and the android did its operation mode. When it came back up, it's still same 7.0, I thought it would be to the next 7.0.1 or maybe even OREO but its not. What did Sony pushed to my phone?

  • Thanq sony. Today updated my mobile, now it's OK. Phone calls Working with good voice clarity.

  • Wifi constantly disconnects. My cousin and her husband both have xperia phones. Xperia xa ultra and z3. Both have problems with wifi. Is this a widespread issue in sony xperia? Some of my friends also have xperia phones and they're issues are the same.

  • No chance to com back to 6.0 vs

  • My xa ultra(f3216) also can't use 4G LTE After updated to Nougat 7.0.

  • I've got a problem of this, I can't use my 4g Lte! Any suggestion?

  • Still I can't get any solution for this, call volume too low.

  • Hohoho welcome to the world of Sony where their smartphones and cameras overheat!

  • camra is good but battery not wery well

  • i got my 3216 almost 2mos now and i stayed at marsh coz still lots of bad comments after the update. just want to make it slowly but surely than regrets later

  • I have the F3213 - US version and updated to Nougat in the last 3 months - so far, its better than 6.0.1, on battery life, camera performance and more stable. I'd say Do IT !

  • What broblem?

  • guys i bought F3216 model and i received Nougat (7.0) update , should i update ??? plz plz need your guys opinion ,,,like will be there any faults if i update to nougat .

  • Absolutely the worst phone i haVe ever had the displeasure of using. *Gps connectivity issues. *Short battery lifespan. *Wifi authentication and connectivity issues. *Horrible Network connectivity issues regardless of service provider. *Multiple software issues that are honestly too numerous to list. I used to have the sony xperia z for tmobile about 4 years ago and the only reason why i did not keep purchasing sony phones is because tmobile dropped them from their stores. I loved that phone so it is extremely disappointing to know that the Xperia aspect of the sony company have slacked so much. Honestly seems like their days are numbered and will soon face a future not unlike their other branch brothers and sisters VAIO.

  • did u play the actual psp games on it? thx

  • thanks mate :)

  • Yes i had the same issues and also it increases too much heat when using camera

  • Just here to ask of it is normal to this unit to increase its temperature too much when using it while playing games or using the camera. My phone always easily in heat upon use.

  • how to return back to 6.0?

  • samsung j7 max or sony xa ultra whice better......please tell me any one.

  • I am having this phone for 1 week now. ( i had before a xperia z2 for over 3 years - that phone worked flawlessly and still running - i gave it to my father) so i bought a brand new XA ultra - got a good deal. the phone is in many ways under Z2. only the front camera and the display are better compared to my old z2. build quality is also lower. Xa feels fragile with plastic bezels. in video department i't a let down . has hd only 30fps ( with Z2 i had 60fps and also 4k) XA feels also slower in apps compared to my 3 years z2... overall is a nice phone if you don't have too high expectations. display is crisp and large and front camera is good for selfies.

  • yes. it is a very good phone. I have one aside from my Xperia XZs

  • Guys ,, planing to buy this on august 2017, model Xperia XA Ultra Dual F3216 , should i go for it , should i or shouldn't i update to Nougat ,, your opinion really appreciate,,

  • After updation facing voice issue n imo application , oneway voice only

  • I have Xperia XA Ultra 3216 Model, i have recently update it 7.0(N). 1) After Update i am facing problems in Camera, Picture's Quality is not good as it was before on 6.0. 2) After taking picture its taking time to preview. does it has same issues with anybody else ?

  • Is this 4g or 3g

  • Of course it would still be the XA Ultra - hands down! Take a look and compare on the specs alone - XA Ultra is last year's 'Lord of the Selfies' - and that's only the Front camera, a secondary ... the Rear camera, which is the priimart boost a heck a lot more - again hands down against the L1's both camera's - also worth to mention is a low-to-mid range spec.

  • Yes u have updated with naugat 7.0

  • Between the camera (sensor, low-light capability, image stabilisation, etc.) of the XA Ultra and the L1 which you guys think is better?

  • Dont update 6.0 is perfect version. Nougat sucks!

  • thats happens to me too...but i have sony xperia m5.....sometimes music stop playing and i cant open alum or videos or any game like clash royale and coc

  • Good everything is good but it's lte

  • Wow i love sony in my life.. Can upgrade Nouget 7.0

  • The wrost phone ever..i will suggest u not to buy this phone..battery issues touch issues..display prblm..am using it for 10 months..and now i have to buy new phn as display is not working properly.

  • how can u play psp games at xperia xa ultra?

  • My Best one. Fast and can play ppsspp psp games with no lags and can read and write on external SD card with permission. I stay on Marshmallow I've heard on xdev that marshmallow is better to root and easier than Nougat

  • worst phone.i will never buy sony again

  • Im sorry i mean yesterday not tommorow

  • i have buy this phone tommorow, and have notifiction to Nougat upgrade, the phone was running so good after nougat, the battery performance get well

  • how about battery life pls tell me..

  • why?

  • worst android phone i had!!!!! after using it for 9 months, touchscreen doesn't work well anymore, battery drains fast, patches on the screen starting, it's not really 21MP!!!!.. i will never buy a sony smartphone again!!

  • Same for me to after the nougat update

  • No luck.. Still stuck on 6.0. Just checked and it hasn't updated yet

  • worst battery, worst BT and WiFi connectivity. I have been using Samsung phone since then but I tried to use Sony because of the MP and the appearance of this XA ultra, but this is a living nightmare ! it'll take a lifetime to connect to Bluetooth and some time for Wifi! that's ridiculously irritating and frustrating! I have to sell my s7edge to buy s8 on December and I decided to use this phone first but that is my stupidest decision I've ever made!

  • Does this have heating problem?

  • Check if you're still on version 6...I've just received nougat update this morning

  • I am...f3215 in the philippines still stuck on 6..

  • Anyone else still stuck with version 6?!

  • I have bought this phone about 6 months back. Although, the looks and camera quality of the phone are really classy, the battery life is very low. Also, because of the battery issue phone device screen got patches internally and I had to get it repaired through Sony center. As the phone is under warranty they have replaced the screen twice and replaced battery also. However, still the battery gets heated very soon and it's not a good experience. I bought Sony phone for the first time and by this experience doesn't look like buying Sony phone again. Regards, Atul Mhapsekar

  • Its 7.0 update worst for jio users...

  • Same here. Post Nougat update, facing call volume issue with third party apps like IMO, JIO4gVoice or any other video/voice calling app. I beleive sony will resolve it soon in Nougat.

  • Im suffering with imo video calls & imo loud speaker calls . voice not coming, but they listening my voice clearly, after using of headphones it's clearly hearing.I format my handset ,but that problem not solve,please give me solution.Last month I updated my handset to android 7.0 ,after that I face this this problem, so as soon as possible I hope SONY will solve this problem?

  • WORST phone I ever had. I used it like 10 months and had to use its warranty in the second one ´cause the touch doesnt worked anymore. It comes full of bloatware and had a HORRIBLE BT and WiFi signal (constantly disconnects with no reason mostly pairing it with my car's stereo, other smartphones works OK but this piece of sh/&t doesnt). Call for assistence at SONY but they didnt helped me at all, same on their forums, I never used a Sony smartphone before and certainly I´ll never use it again. The only thing positive about this phone is the desingn Its very appealing.

  • all features r good ,but battery life is very poor......................only 2700mah!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! we cant go anywhere without charger

  • J7 for you not to face any issues and problemsems with this phone.

  • My prepaid load becomes lessen whenever I on my internet and use applications. Even i'm using wifi. Any help? Thanks f3212 :(

  • Same here

  • Low call volume with Jio4gVoice post nougat update :(

  • Better not as for now. Lots of bad cons in the air

  • Better not to do updating as for now bro... Lots of bad comment after turning nougat. Lets wait for a little time to let sony stabilize the situation. I almost there but i cancelled it after reading lots of cons. LONG LIVE NOUGAT. hahaha

  • Im not satisfied with the battery... Fast charging but Fast drain....

  • need to connect at pc or laptops and it will automatically pop-up the "xperia companion" box.

  • Not for me..

  • After update...its become sooooo hot even in normal use...and battery draining faster than android 6...made factory reset and still problems...what can i do? Mine f3212

  • it is good

  • The same here.. I don't understand how my Xa ultra got worst after the update to nougat. This is tertible.

  • After f3216 official update to nougat sometimes there is problem in media playback like music, youtube etc. no sound, no play. but after restart phone it solves. it happens continuously. any suggestions please??

  • Roughly 1 hour screen on time per 20% of battery of use. No gaming just for facebook, message and calling etc. Consider it have Qnovo so the battery wouldn't get reduce after years. If you are a gamer you must bring power bank like some iphone user.

  • how about battery life pls tell

  • Instal Sony Experia Companion on the PC.connect the phone to to PC.then open the Xperia Companion app on the PC.click check for updates..You can update to Android Nougat.

  • Same problem with my phone..xa ultra is not good enough..

  • I dont know about others but i got the upgrade just moment after i swithed it on.

  • I'm using version f3211 but still no nougat update

  • Anyone in the philipines on the f3215 version got the nougat update yet? My telco seems to be dragging their feet on this update

  • I have 3216 can I get 7 version?

  • really? my phone still 6. i checked the update software it says my phone still latest version

  • I'm here now in Indonesia i bought this phone in Singapore. i search for casing and tempered glass in Jakarta and Ternate there is no.. sad. until now my phone still no casing and tempered glass..

  • Sony Xperia XA Ultra model F3216 got Android 7.0 Update today morning...Cheers

  • When is android nougat coming to Xperia XA Ultra (version f3211) in South Africa??

  • If you want performance you should buy XZ or XZ Premium, XA1 Ultra is midranges with super selfie and big diplay and loud audio and slim side bezel and else, this is the selling points, does these fit your need?

  • Not worth the price..very disappointed with its performance..no more sony products for me..

  • battery is not good. up to the battery capacity...

  • Just in terms of the battery you might not be satisfied.

  • yes, what I love of this phone is the camera ♥, but is true this phone is not for gamers!

  • Absolutely yes, but the battery is not for gamers.

  • What is your model number? Only F3211 and F3212 received a nougat update. My model F3216 hasn't received nougat update

  • Hi Rana..did you try the phone..if yes how is it cuz im try to buy one..thanks..Tarek

  • I bought this phone a month ago, so far its the best phone i've ever had! Not facing any problems at all. The only thing I am concerned about is that they should made the battery 3k mAh instead. 9/10

  • Don't do any software upgration your phone will be down grade

  • Very bad

  • No online support

  • What is your favorite and most consider parts? If it's selfie, big display, loud volume, Qnovo battery charging tech…so it's a nice choice!

  • I want to buy this phone ,it is good or not ??

  • good day to day phone...camera is awesome.. battery depends on the user... 1 movie is 20 to 25 percent battlife... naot bad

  • XA1 Ultra has better battery endurance compare to XA Ultra.

  • Honest opinion from non-Sony fan. This phone is very decent. Liking the edge to edge screen though the top and bottom bezel is thick. Get a black one if you can. I personally having a hard time getting used to the on screen button. Display is beautiful. Camera is above average. Pricing is quite hefty. Not liking the battery life much. If you read gsmarena review its only 55hrs endurance rating. Overall a good phone if you a big fan of Sony.

  • XA ultra or XA1?

  • XA Ultra is good for youths and parents. The display is Brilliant and good sunlight readable, the speaker is ultra-loud. The selfie just easy beat any flagships. The battery with Qnovo charging tech. One day using is enough, two day mostly for receive call and message. Playing game a little bit is okay but not going too much, watching movie okay with moderate usage. It has Fast charge 3.0, easy and fast to get power. If you are whole day gamer you won't be happy, but this is still a great phone for youths and parents.

  • 16GB is enough to save a lot things. The photos and music file all save to the micro SD card and you can also play all the media with Xperia's Album and Music, it is awsome app better than any on stock apps with harass abs and bundle of permissions. You maybe use a Samsung so that you don't know what I am talking.

  • XperiaBlog announce the Nougat for XA Ultra with start with model F3211 & F3212, the rest have to wait until the update has been approved. source:

  • Which is your model name? 1- F3211 2- F3212 3- F3215 4- F3216 5- F3213

  • BTW guys , if you are really into technology , you should know the saying " there is no perfect world when it comes to technology , simple issue = simple solution , issues are so simple it will be really up to you on how you are going to use it , and if you have been working on a computers and technologies over the past few years these small issues wont affect your capability and day to day use .. I hate reading all these comments here in GSM arena that battery life sucks, go get A f@@KK33n life and buy your own computer since you have been using your smart phone wrong , if you are a gamer then focus your time on a computer game, games on your phone are just giving you the opportunities to kill your time and not being addicted to it , come on !! i cant just handle those homan who complain like they buy a perfect robot for themselves. and for memory buy an SD Card , your life should not be ended up by just using a smartphone , there are lots of resources out there like tablet , laptop, computer , ..

  • xa ultra performance good but battery is nott enough for 6 inc mobile. It should be 3500 mah.

  • Hi Liz, Connect to wifi or turn on your mobile data. Go to settings About Phone Software Update

  • got the update for android N here in Jordan & did a fresh install of the system & microphone issue is not solved yet, sometimes it works fine, sometimes not, like u're talking in a tunnel or you have a low voice & the other end of the phone call can barely hear me!!! I had high hopes for the update to fix this problem but apparently it didn't!! Way to go SONY

  • after upgrade nougat, battery also longer lasting... tx sony..

  • thanks for sony, after upgrade nougat display setting also changed and direct accept burma zawgyi font

  • I had it ( nougat) install, everything's work fine, great performance and all... But there is a problem when I try to connect to mobile Hotspot.. My laptop and other can detect the Hotspot but other phone can... Im in Malaysia... But now already do software repair and now back to marshmallow again...

  • after 3 days I'm hardly try to updated, daily 4/5 times. but result same, currently showing your software up to date. android 6.0.1. really funny....

  • How did u install it? I can't download mine.. :(

  • I too face the same issue

  • But the big deal you will face after updating to Nougat That this Android takes only 5.93 GB But actually you cannot update some applications as you want You will get this message (( please manage your space or delete some unwanted program before doing this )) That's mean your ROM 16 GB is not sufficient for this Nougat And you have to uninstall some applications before Updating them And that is disappointing

  • No I could update it from my country Syria Arab Republic Its full name Xperia XA Ultra Dual Sim ( F3212 )

  • Don't you think that you are exaggerating so much, i think this mobile with heavy usage you will need to recharge it once per day with initial charge, if you calculate it with me, full charge needs 2.5 hours, 3 charges will need 7.5 hours. Unless you have a defected battery.

  • it needs three battery charging cycles in a single day, worst. worst. worst. mobile ever i have seen

  • I'm facing same problem in BD.

  • i got 7.0 update , when i try install , a few second , it restart and said fail to install .... anybody got same problem ? please share how can I resolve it.

  • I already updated my XA Ultra to Nougat (Philippines) no new themes? :( I want the spiral theme

  • I update my xa ultra to nougat in egypt :) :)

  • When will I get the updates of android nougat in my xperia xa ultra in India?

  • Nougat update is only for European models, right?

  • factory reset and skip setup doesn't help ,, i still cant get the update going...

  • 1) Back up your phone 2) Do a factory reset 3) Don't set anything up. Skip set-tp altogether and run the System Update. 4)Nougat Or you can use your computer, but from my experience with Sony that's not guaranteed to be better.

  • same here huhuhu

  • i had the same experience upon updating..

  • I agree. The phone have a lot of problems.

  • i got 7.0 update , when i try install , a few second , it restart and said fail to install .... anybody got same problem ?

  • Guys nougat is on the way :) ­

  • It is not a better phone, battery fast draining - Sim range cut 3-4 time a day (restart it proper working) service Centre not customer friendly

  • Send it back, defected unit.

  • I had buy Xperia XA Ultra on Mar 2017. There are many problem are coming. Like Mic issue, Touch problem, Network Problem, Battery Problem, Heating Issue, Hanging issue and etc... Camera is better Good. But if the camera is on The batter is draining more.. I had use the camera for 15 minutes the battery is after that only 37% on first its 85%.. The model is tottaly waste more problem is coming.. Till now June 2017 i had handover the phone to the service center 4 times. But the same problem is repeating. they didn't taking any steps... So I recommend there are many good Phone instead of this model

  • Can sony reply? Or here any one can reply.... When will we get update of Android nougat 7.0 in our xperia xa ultra in india

  • Just buy j7 plus, more worth it. Infact, old j7 is waaay better than this

  • overheat, VERRY battery drainage, low quality spec camera with very dark brightness even in bright room(the camera itself as is) , too high screen brightness even if adjusted to the minimum! keypad sometime problem, my phone is burning hot when turn on camera or play 1 game! Overall, not worth it!

  • it is not well phone there are many problems over heat not water resist camera battary service centres

  • I've been using it for 6 months and these are the issues I'd got -Stock Camera is too slow -High RAM usage for no reason -Overheats and lags even when I'm not running any app -Low storage even though I only downloaded 4-5 medium sized apps -Programs stop responding randomly -low trade in value ( just in case you want to sell it)

  • When we will get android 7 updates

  • Do any of you use the micro sd card as a main memory after format them to this xperia, is there any problem with the application which is installed and with this setup are all the apps will be store in SD card or just some app? Thanks

  • Can Sony reply or comment to all the negative fedback and your following up action? I am considering the XA Ultra. Currently using Sony Aqua. Contract Expiring very soon.

  • Everything is fine. The reason i bought this is because of it looks. I tell u fam this phone is very beautiful in personal. Just need to have a case to protect the back side from scratches. It can be easily scratched :/ i don't use screen protector. Been using this for many months and the screen is still smooth no scratches or anything. The only problem i getting is, the camera is too damn slow. You'll experience this after about 2 to 3 months usage. Especially when switching from photos after taking a video. The app will just lag, you can't tap anything i u close then open again, an error will, something like, camera is being used by another app.

  • How many apps have you loaded? I faced Storage problem with the Sony Aqua with only 2Gb. Still too low? Considering buying the XA Ultra at the moment....

When you are typing an sms then 4 lines are displayed at a time. As soon as you type the 5th line it shifts the first line and the last 4 lines are displayed. Now you can scroll it to see all the lines so far typed by you. You can edit it from any line by simply touching on the line which you want to edit. So next time check carefully before posting on gsmarena.

  • have a software errror

  • Ofcourse yes.... U can uninstall unnecessary apps.... It will create space also increase the speed of phone.... And also it will save little bit memory

  • u have to keep this phone 2.5 half hours for getting it full charge and the battery drains within 6 to 7 hours what a waste of time and money never buy a in build battery mobile i recommend samsung note 3 is still a best phone

  • You should upgrade the internal storage lol

  • How about the storage? are you satisfied with it?

  • I got the same issues, I cannot install applications anymore due to low storage when I only installed few apps. My other android phone with only 2 Gb ram can handle apps more than my xa ultra. I felt like I don't want this phone anymore.

  • can anybody tell me that when will we get Android 7.0 naugat update in this xa ultra

  • Your comments are 100% true. It is so surprising none of the others are offering these comments. I am not having any app and all the time the device is full. I am so fed up with the device. Shame on Sony to even have released this device. After six months of struggle I really want to throw this device.

  • its very good for playing VG. :)

  • it's an sdxc

  • Hii bro.. I want to knw abt 64 Gb.. Is that Micro SdHc or SdXc..?!

  • i just buy it, get HOT for no reason , not update it yet is is worm , video quality is great but pictures are just OK , take long time to focuses .

  • there is no such thing as clear cache in advance setting.. only KEEP CACHE, STORAGE, MEMORY.

  • like i said from previous post. NOT TRUE. transferring ur apps from sd card doesnt solve the internal. issue. ive been there.. done it. and still. the same. i have 82% internal. storage with little apps on my phone. THATS the only. MAIN issue for me for. this MOB.

  • I have the xa ultra since a week. And it has indeed. A software problem. But my mayor problem with the phone is the extern storge I mean the SD card. My phone. Dusn,t even support 128GB. It can only take 64GB. And according to the specifications it should be able to take on 256GB. What's the deal here?

  • 1hour 30mins charging time. for my. xa ultra

  • I have this phone since a week. And it has indeed a software problem. But the mayor

  • It's my second Sony Xperia xa ultra, and I'm still experiencing the same problem as the first one. A brown line on the LCD screen hardly 3 months I have the phone, the first one it was one month and I'm told it can't be repaired. The irony about it I'm on contract

  • Just wanna ask if XA Ultra will be good for gaming? My main game is Vainglory. I also want to use it as an alternative for laptop as my main anime watching device. Thanks!

  • Definitely not, xa ultra and xa1 ultra are the best when it comes to the cameras.

  • Buy the xa ultra but keep in mind, the battery is just average.

  • The Samsung Galaxy J7 Prime has better battery life for sure, but everything else is better with the xa ultra.

  • The Huawei Nexus 6p has better battery life but everything else is better with the xa ultra, note that the Huawei Nexus 6p overheat like hell.

  • Sony xa ultra is the only smartphone with a great features 2.5d screen is amazing.camera sound screen resolution battery ram Everything is good.Amazing Smartphone.Everyone should buy this mobile.

  • Xperia XA ultra or Huawei Nexus 6p? Which is best?

  • j7 prime has a strong battery but the camera is less than xa ultra

  • Get the prime. I have it since three days and it's been perfect in every way.

  • Major issues in battery and audio mic.. My phone heated like tawa 🙁

  • Yesterday I bought this phone (I had the option to choose a Samsung Galaxy J7 Prime but I chose this one because of the 21MP camera) and when I got home and my boyfriend called me, he couldn't hear me at all. The microphone wasn't working unless I plugged in the headphones. Today I'm going back to my carrier to find a solution. Should I get a new Xperia XA Ultra or should I get a Samsung Galaxy J7 Prime?

  • It's an amazing phone. It works just fine for me. It's camera is awesome. You are wrong

  • Pl dont purchase this phone. Its full of software n hardware problems with mic,touchscreen n battery. U'll regret investing so much just like I'm

  • now i wanna buy anew phone any advise comparing p10 lite and xa ulta

  • is there any mobile with a better camera in the same price range ?

  • Yesterday i bought this phone. But now this time i am face some problems. Battery power only 5/6 hour. Microphone going to damage. Why i face those problems? Give me suggestions please..

  • I too had same problem. Using call app to overcome this problem.

  • Amazing phone compared to its price. Poor battery but simply you can overcome this disadvantage by activate the stamina mode. Thx to Sony.

  • You can find updates on: Settings->About Phone->Software update If there is any update, follow the instructions given.

  • I wonder why are people complaining about this phone? I've used it and it works really well, pictures are really good as well.

  • Guys what is better xa ultra or huawei p9lite ???

  • I want to update my phones android version how to update plzzzzzzzzzzzzzz suggest me

  • is sonny xa ultra battery drained very fast?

  • Great! Everything is OK. Battery is draining little bit fast. Overall I'm satisfied with this!

  • Funny than 16gb, 2gb left, it's very funny for me, vilify do not stupid really,

  • Proper holding of mobile phone while on call is your left hand...

  • No happy happy about this phone. Waste of money. Battery drains too fast. Touch not working proper . No image crop option etc etc

  • Yes, i had the same problem . The problem is that you might be holding your phone with your right hand while on a call, which might cover the mic without you notice. try holding it with your left hand while talking and it worked fine with me.

  • My friend tell me about Sony Xperia xa ultra internal memory. It's only 2 gb user available after software update.. and no mobiles in 2017 has this less internal memory. It has the worst wifi connection and downloading capability. I had Samsung I phone. U can compare Samsung's 2005's mobiles with this phone

  • Try to remove scratch card in mobile .may be it will cover speakers..

  • I've come in search to see if anyone else had the same problem. With any incoming or outgoing calls, nobody can hear me (well they can, just extremely faintly) the only way to fix it is to use the headphones, or loudspeaker. Anyone else with the same issue?

  • I recently bought Xperia XA Ultra and it becomes overheated within very few minutes of testing camera? Is this a usual problem for this model? How about Sony Xperia XA dual with smaller screen? The same problem? In my sony phone, it is way much hotter than Xiaomi phone. Any solution for this?

  • Battery life my sadness

  • I bought this mobile. Usability very poor. Software usability very poor. Bad choice.

  • the person u are calling can't hear u well sometimes the touchscreen doesn't work probably low storage issue when Sony fix this problems >> Xperia XA Ultra will be a great mobile phone.

  • Good mobile nice camera nice running but battery is the major problem drain too fastly When it will get vote update and Android 7

  • Why only 2700mah..its 6.0" screen... Battery drained so faster.. Also camera not so pretty

  • Big fan but battery sucks Going to samsung a9 pro Gd bye sony

  • 2700 mh batt and mediatek chipset.. The mediatek chipset..

  • how long ? from 0 to 100% ?

  • I would recomend the xa ultra due to its display, camera and build quality. And software is point.

  • Please dont troll here on Sony's page... Go back to samsung rip off. Sony is king and its software is second lightest under stock android.. And the same goes to htc on the software side. Samsung has the worst software to date, hence the s7, and now s8.

  • How can u do this

  • How to get volte in my Xperia can ultra dual

  • I have used the Galaxy A7 and now using the xa ultra... All I can say is the xa ultra is shit... Software is a big mess

  • so long

  • Plz dont buy coz come another july but not update nuget

  • when will i get android naugat 7.0 in my xperia xa ultra.... please reply if anybody knows

  • when will i get android naugat 7.0 in my xperia xa ultra.... please reply if anybody knows

  • I am looking forward to by a new phone. Which is the best between xperia xa ultra and galaxy a7 2017??

  • need 2,5 hours

  • How is its battery time? Charging time?

  • Yes it supports 4g..so jio will be supported.

  • As i gone through ur selection of some models...let me tell you..the more u search for more models the more u will get confused..so i better prefer to ask u wat feautures u want in a particular phon..as u mentioned some demands regarding with phons..but every phon will lack in certian terms...now it depend upon u..if u want a good phon having good processor,ram ,camera etc in a gud budget then i will recommend u to go for others models rather than sony...becuse the one problm with sony ultra is that it has huge display as mentioned 6 inch and for that they had given only 2700 mh battery..thats quite low..it will give high speed performance but battery consumption will be too fast for this small mah batterty..and this thing will disappoint u...if u can manage with battery..then this is the best model for u in any field..

  • Same problem to my phone Sony xa ultra

  • Xperia x dual, i am using it, go grab it.

  • I purchase Sony xa ultra in Oct 16, I am facing problem for my voice not clearly hear to caller, I was submitted my phone to service center, however the problem is not yet resolved.

  • Listen u all..... U will not get 21MP BACK ND 16MP camera in other mobile.... And also u will not get that Edge to edge screen in any other mobile...... Now its upto u what to buy or not...... Xperia xa ultra rocks..... Superv mob

  • Use bluetooth headphones

  • Go for Sony Xperia x dual

  • Sir, I'm a student. For me, 23k does matter. I'm really confused what to buy that worth for me. I will buy it on "No Cost E.M.I". On Flipkart, I filtered it and found all these mobiles - Vivi V5, Oppo A57, Oppo F1s, Sony Xperia X Dual Sim, Sony Xperia XA Ultra Dual, Sony Xperia XA Dual , Gionee A1 , Asus Zenfone 3s Max, Asus Zenfone 3 Max, Asus Zenfone 3 , Asus Zenfone 3 Laser , So please suggest me within all these mobiles. I want all these features - Good Camera, Good battery backup, Hi graphics Game & Speed. Please mind my Budget. Thanks

  • Well if u looking for a high features at low cost then u can switch to vivo v5 and oppo f1s..they r providing almost the same features as compared to sony ultra..here it lags in battery and internal memory as comapred to both of the above models...but if u r a photogenic then i will recommend u to go for sony ultra as its powered with awsome camera ..forget about the selfie..it powerd with 21.2mp rear camera and its known as lord of the selfie with high speed performance..only lags with battery and that to it is with 6 inch display..if u can adjust urself with battery power then u can switch to sony otherwise will recoommed u to go for abuve two brands keeping price in mind

  • Should I buy this phone Xperia XA Ultra now ? Bec of many other brand offer more fetures at less price ... Is this devise work with Reliance JIO ? Please suggest me I need to buy a phone urgently ..

  • I think this device has great features and works well for me. I don't need 32 GB of storage when I can use an SD card. I came from a Samsung Galaxy S7 and I am really impressed with the Sony Xperia XA Ultra.

  • I Brought This Mobile From Dubai On Januvary 2017 After 90 Days Mobiles Display Is not working I contact With Sony Custemer care In India They Told Me I shuld Go to Dubai To Recify This Issue (One Month Dubai Visa Charge + Flight Ticket Charge) is Higher Than This Fuching Mobile Thanks For Great Servise Of Sony Custemer Care Indian Staff

  • I am also confused. Can we discuss? u can find me by searching "Dipayan Dipu"

  • No doubt sony gives brilliant camera clarity, sound and performance, but law internal storage always create problem, i am using sony from last 4 years, even having 32 gb storage card, internal storage always create problem. It should be 32 gb inbuilt, and 4k resolution, with turbo charging. not justify to the features.

  • Nothing like that..... You can transfer apps from internal memory to external..... Its very easy transfer..... Great design n great camera.... Fully satisfied.... Xperia xa ultra rocksssss

  • Hey there, you have 9 GB free of 16 GB and you can expand it with an sd card, good luck.

  • Do NOT purchase this phone! Internal storage is only 16Gb and will experience storage problems even if you have external SD card!

  • When will I get update of android 7.0 naugat in my xperia xa ultra in india

  • Sony xperia xa ultra is a big mistake to buy..not worth it..mine is only 8 months but the screen is damage the lcd is slowly burnt...

  • I'm still confused between one plus 3t or xa ultra.. Want to buy today.. Because my z ultra is damaged now.. I'm not able to listen song from that one because headphone jack is damaged

  • Sure it is a good in all aspects, unless you are gamer, in this case the battery may serve you for 2.5 hours of gaming only.

  • I had Purchased new phone from careefour Deira city centre dubai on last friday 14th april 2017.But calls is not clear no one can't hear my voice properly if i got any call and outgoing calls also facing same issue.

  • If big screen and media is all you want, might wanna look into XA1 Ultra, tho its not available in many countries yet. If youre not concerned about price then S8+ is the latest big screen

  • i think i want to buy the sony xperia xa ultra do you think i should? and why?

  • I am sony user when i was i\kid, still i love my last few sony set was C4, now XA ultra its feel ultra,, love the all thing if ur sony lover u can buy, battery is good , 3000 mah can me more good, but i am happy :)

  • one plus 3 or 3t is 100% better than sony xa ultra , even dont think about it .

  • My preference in a phone is music sound and videos quality and you tube videos and big screen.... I'm using z ultra since 2015 but now it's headphone jack is damaged so I want to buy new one but confused between xa ultra or one plus 3t Plzz suggest

  • Is that mbl having fast charging and may mbl battery drains too fast is there any solution for battery saving friends any suggestions

  • Xa ultra also have naugat.... It will upgrade soon

  • My preference are music and video quality and you tube videos... I'm using z ultra since 2015 and I totally loved using it... but now it's headphone jack is damaged..so wanna buy new phone But confused between xa ultra or one plus 3t

  • Plz suggest actually I prefer music and for video quality purpose and big screen I'm using z ultra since 2014... And I Really loved it but now its headphone jack is damage So I want to buy new phone But I'm confused between xa ultra and one plus 3t

  • XA Ultra is more for selfie and media while One Plus 3T is a powerful device for gaming (costs more than XA Ultra too) it depends on your preference really. If you are thinking of buying XA Ultra, you should wait for XA1 Ultra with better specs and Nougat.

  • Sony Xperia xa ultra or one plus 3t.. Plz suggest.. Wanna buy tomorrow

  • Hey dude,r u satisfied with xa ultra? I want to buy this .which phone i bought xa ultra or x . what u say

  • Clear your cached data in advanced storage that will free up a lot of space

  • I've had the phone a couple of weeks now and im incredibly disappointed in its performance. The OS and random processes eat so much of the ram it is unable to attach pics to emails as it has insufficient free memory. That is with minimal apps installed/running. The battery is terrible when it is being used, so care is to be taken. On the whole a decent phone,let down by poor memory management, greedy OS and a lacking battery.

  • hi bought this phone can you tell me if there is a wireless charger type you place the phone on available for ultra also how do you get notifications for text messages without it beeping all day to other notifications

  • My ear speaker is not working after the last update of the build number

  • apps cannot be transfered to SD card. tried it. but when restarted the phone ones. apps cannot longer be used. need to install it again

  • i have my xa ultra for 7mos. i love it.. i hate for one thing INTERNAL STORAGE! i have a few apps. and my Intrnal storage almost FULL. 80%!

  • Same with mine, front camera stop working since jan... Im olanningvto have this fixed in the sony services. Do you thinknit would be fine or just wait for the software update to nougat?

  • I owned this phone for three days and absolutely loved everything about it. Only one issue for me. The battery. While its not terrible and I could see it being adequate for a lot of people my usage is not right for this phone. I actually really miss it now though. Really everything about the phone is gorgeous.

  • It's mostly ok, with some very serious issues: - The front camera stopped working since the last firmware update. This bug affected many of Sony's models, and their support want helpful. Might be fixed on Nougat, remains to be seen. Meanwhile the 'selfie phone' can't take any selfies. - The screen loses its responsiveness every so often. Restarting the phone solves this, so i suspect this is due to the low memory & inferior cpu specs. - The battery is weak, but i was aware of that to begin with, i always carry a charger with me. Other than that it's mostly fine, and provides a fairly great value for the money.

  • Great looking phone. Good software and hardware package. Unfortunately let down by very poor internal memory,and ability to store apps on Micro SD.

  • Get the Ultra! It's big but still feels great in your hand because it's not too wide. Screen is awesome!

  • Should I buy xperia x or xa ultra??

  • I have a problem with this device, toutch does not working well some times till restarting the mobile, any one can help me?

  • Its a good phone with awesomr features. But little bit difficult to handle

  • Ofcourse yes.....i m fully satisfy.... Earlier before buying this I was also thinking like u..... But I m pretty happy with its camera.... Also with Edge to edge screen in this budget.... Awesome mobile

  • Hey buddy,r u satisfied with xa ultra? I want to purchase that one. So can I? Is it the good phone?

  • screen is okay.bt what about the specs and battery life?

  • Screen is oversized hard for single handed usage, even though it comes with screen minimising software, the large screen makes it an inconvenience if you have small hands

  • Do not worry abt battery.... I m using this mob from last 5 months.... I charged my mob in morning full.... N I surf internet, play games, chat n using messenger video calls.... At evening I left with 15 percent battery.... I charged my mob for 2 hrs and again it comes on 100 percent... And then at night I used to play games n watch movies.... Great mob.... Go for it.... It rocks...... Great design.... Specially awesome camera

  • dont blame the phone, do you think creator are that idiot like you to create phone that would also ruin their reputation, it is the user sometimes creates their unlogical things.

  • The battery is not suitable for mobile gamers. However, normal usage gives you about half a day of battery, so charging everyday is unavoidable

  • is it a great phone to buy......?

  • Hello, guys wan't to buy sony xperia XA ULTRA but just saw specification tht it is having on 2700 mAh battery.....so does it affect, is there any issue related to tht.

  • Support otg or not ...

  • Is the battery life ok? Or just like other sony phones that battery life sucks and it drains so fast?

  • Can only transfer certain apps to micro sd, and keeps maxing out on internal memory, pain in the bum.

  • Get it to service, probably it is defected.

  • They said that this is a lord of the selfie. But i bought my fon last nov. 2016 front camera always displys a black screen. Try to put in safe mode still the same, did a factory reset still the same. Im planning to have a replacement in my fon.. Very bad... 7

  • I'm using this Handset since last 4 month I'm very impressed about it's performance camera​ results and battery life. After last update..But one problem is that we can not move Apps in a SD card... Really it's not a good thing​..

  • Have been using the phone since december.Really immmpressed with the phone.3GB Ram seems to be sufficient to do all the days work.Playing high end games with this is no issue.No complaints about the camera performance.Really good all-rounder only drawback is the lack of the fingerprint scanner.Battery is enough to last a day with heavy usage.Definietely worth the money.

  • Go and check it out on flipkart

  • xa ultra users please help me. i need the full display sized tempered glass. anybody saw my comment pls reply me

  • when the camera is turn on the xa becomes heat then battery backup is too short .

  • This XA Siblings are the only Sony design that fascinates me I mean interests me. Phones with curves at the 4 corners sits well and comfortably in hand. I like this design.

  • are those shadows getting bigger?

  • These two cellphones are not related to eachother , Sony is monster in phone producing

  • If you got warranty then go let Sony store to fix it in your country. Just to let you know its the screen problem and one of the major screen problem this phone have is ghosting which mean it will be controlled by itself and you cannot even press any button to fix it including shutting down the phone too

  • hello i have a problem with my xa ultra . it has like shadows on the screen, any idea who to solve this issue???

  • I have bought this last November I love this phone however I am facing problem other party can't hear my voice ,battery drains if you keep on data , GPS not working since last opdate '

  • I bought this phone in January and it's March now my internal storage is already 90 percent full EVEN THOUGH I have a 32Gb SD card inserted. For an average phone user who uses many applications and plays games, this phone is out of the league. Although it boasts a 16Mp front camera and 21Mp Main camera, the storage and battery life are below average that of decent smart phones like the Galaxy J7 Prime. Too much bloat ware that annoys you with useless notifications. Go for the Galaxy J7 Prime friend not this egg fryer.

  • i do own a sony xperia xa ultra since the release of the device and as for my device i do have warranty from sony itself so for the overheating of device when using the camera or the screen ghosting which i have expected happen to many xa device so i will encourage those that have the device with warranty to ask sony to repair in your country and those that are considering to buy a new device this is not recommended to you. Buying a samsung J7 prime will be better in term of saving cost more battery and lesser installed default apps than sony. If you really want good camera under sony company but not Sony xperia XZ then wait for Sony Xperia XA1. Did regret buying this phone as i need to repair it twice ( they really change those parts to make sure it won't overheat or ghost again ) that each repair take around 1week. The device only have 16Gb for internal storage which facebook can take up to 500+ MB which is kinda sucks. Hope this will help in making decision

  • Never mind, this smartphone is so great, go to YouTube and check the reviews.

  • When the camera is on the mobile is heat faster

  • I think it has something to do with the settings, try turning off the image quality in the display setting..

  • htc M9

  • What exactly you mean when you say the worst phone ever??? what i read above sound great!@@@

  • The worst mobile i have ever seen. This mobile really sucks. Iam using this mobile since December, not even a single day iam satisfied with the mobile. My rating 0 out of 5

  • My wife xa ultra is fine though same as yours bought it at december maybe yours is defected product try bring it to sony service center

  • Is this better than the Galaxy J7 Prime??

  • To tell you honestly this phone sucks....I got it last December 2016 and to my surprise I bought a phone from hell!!!! Issues: 1. Bluetooth --- master of connect and disconnect very anoying 2. Youtube and videos--- hanging videos and sounds unsynchronization 3. Lastly, the very best, the signal just disappeared , cannot connect to any networks. so the phone now is totally useless. Note: I already done all the efforts to recover this garbage phone but to no avail. Last option: I will bring this worthless phone to sony store with my hummer and smash it in front of them. P.S. don't even think buying this garbage

  • is there any manual mode like in the xperia x ? if there is then can we control the shutter speed and all like the lg g4? thank u in advance.

  • is it a good phone for light user?some games videos and 8 hours in the office per day?

  • does it have a led notification and remote play support for ps4? thanks for the answer

  • probably because you have bought a duplicate device......sony phones above 20k benchmark dont hang..

  • Ive been using it for 10 months,,no hang,whatso ever problem,,nice phone ,,im using it for gaming and movies,,,super worth

  • how to use flash while videocall

  • very good phone. Specially Camera. Excellent. Can capture photo at distance of 300 mtr clearly. Only issue is low battery back due to big screen and high resolution but that's manageable. Charging is also fast. 9 marks out of 10. keep up Sony.

  • is sony xperia xa ultra support youtube 360 video?

  • screen touch sensitivity are quite good even after installing it with a tempered glass for additional protection.

  • How about the touch sensitivity

  • Such a disaster i have been using this phone from last 2,3 months n i n getting mad now, battery issue, nobody can hear my voice without ear phones, not able to turn off the screen overlay from settings, hang problem. now i have to buy any other phone bcs i can't bear this phone anymore.....

  • And i doubt if you really owned one.

  • Say you had problems with the battery or performance, is it cracked or whatever, but please don't talk about both cameras with badness, I have tested the cameras of the smartphone, they are ridiculously A.W.E.S.O.M.E..

  • The Camera clarity dropped drastically in a month. I bought the phone because of the Camera. Am disappointed 😞. Is there any way to correct this issue? Touch sensitivity very very poor. U have to hit the buttons in order to type. Worst Sony product I guess Secondary camera now more clear than the primary camera. I demand that you find me and fix it or pick your product

  • Don't expect badness from a 2016 smartphone, especially a sony smartphone, check the specifications sheet, is it compatible with your needs?? Yes?? Go go grab it!!

  • if your an outdoor type heavy multi-game user, choose the Xiaomi Mi Max (4000mah battery) but you get average camera quality. If your usually in office, Sony XA Ultra (2700mah battery) is okay with more premium look, even if you use the XA Ultra for gaming you have no problem with the battery life coz you can always charge it beside your desk. The hour consumption difference between a 4000mah and 2700mah battery for me was about 2.5hours when using the both phones for gaming.

  • Im excited to get my own XA Ultra... Actual review in youtube is more evident to have this one... Good luck to me..yehey.

  • I want to buy sony xperia xa ultra. Because this mobile has high lavel camera. I dont know this mobile is good or bad. So please suggested me what can i do?

  • Big mistake buying this phone. Wish I had paid extra and bought a Samsung. The camera is poor quality, taking blurred shots that have to be retaken until you give it up as a bad job! The wireless connection is rubbish, and takes forever to load anything. The phone spends half of its life crashing and freezing, making it impossible to use for work purposes. The internal space is minimal, so you will need an SD card. If you update an app, it moves it back to your internal memory, thus causing more time wasted constantly moving apps back to the SD card. The screen is not always responsive, and has to be pressed/touched more than once. I can not wait to save up and buy a new phone. I will not be buying Sony again, as this phone has put me off for life. I should have stuck to what I know, Samsung all the way.

  • This is a good phone but it's battery. Backup & storage. Capacity is very very poor. Within this phone is not supported to Jio Sim. So in this price I found very latest smart phone in the market.

  • my vision in this phone which i tried it for 3 days only . its more hanging while i use google search several times . is this common problem in this category or my device only has problem as private case? . please i need your opinions .

  • my vision in this phone which i tried it for 3 days only . its more hanging while i use google search several times ./ is this common problem or my devive only has aproblem . please i need your opinions .

  • Phone is good, great camera and battery performance good for one day ( Stamina mode lasting about 1.5 days and ultra stamina mode about more than 3 days). 16GB Storage Capacity is not convenient. After installing NOVA 3 , Asphalt 8 and some social media apps, I now have 1.5GB remaining internal storage. You can move some apps to SD Card though. Gaming performance is good. If you have Barry Allen's eyes, you can detect some frames dropped(whoosh!). It's okay for me thatXA ultra is not waterproof, its unlikely for me to drop the phone in a bowl of cereals, toilet bowl, swimming pool, drop in the ocean while flying, or exposed to rain when I'm at Sahara. Better if you will have a thin clear plastic case to protect the side bezel from sudden bump and overall scratches.There's a minor update on February 2017 and I think its a prep for Nougat. If you are planning to root this device, you better stay at Marshmallow at the moment. If you want more extra care, buy an armor case with an auto deploy mini parachute to protect your phone from sudden drop.

  • Im using xperia ultra and for me its good... Camera is good... But battery life its a no for me .

  • Could you upload that photo to the google+ to let me see the result and details, because you words can't show anything, I better review from the photo you taken.

  • You are upgrade to a selfie rocker, but Z3 has the flagship features in all way except Qnovo adapting battery charging tech and awesome selfie features.

  • Z5 premium is a flagship device, xa ultra is midrange.

  • It's a $300 phone, a midranger... You got a Z3, you should've went for the Z5 or the X Performance. Of course you're going to be disappointed by a lesser experience.

  • Inferior in pretty much every single way to the Z5 Premium. Its a shame, because I love the Xperia brand, but these new phones are a complete crock. They're going backwards, and also losing the amazing, professional look and feel of the devices,

  • Upgraded myself recently from Sony z3 to xa ultra n m very disappointed. Human beings are creatures of habit so I was surprised to find xa ultra without the double tap to wake up phone when z3 had it n I'd used it for over 2yrs...instead there is double tap to sleep here n I wonder how they expect me to wake up the phone? Have to press the power button to bring me to the unlock screen. It's a hassle. Second xa ultra is lagging... Simple task like deleting msg takes couple of seconds, much longer than z3. 3rd how can a phone time out in 2min if you are using it? Isn't the timeout for when phone is inactive? Overall, I miss my z3 n think I'll b going back to it...

  • xperia xa ultra have features hdmi? to connect to tv?

  • so close to be such a nifty phone to own one, but 3 GB and 2700mAh crap. great camera, by the way.

  • Fellow Canadian here on Freedom also with sony xa ultra. The poor signal in basements is common for freedoms network and not specific to this phone. My XA ultra, Moto G Play and BlackBerry Z10 all have terrible reception when in places like basements. It's because freedom is using older network, that's why the rates are cheaper compared to the competitors. You get what you pay for kind of thing.

  • How about in low light sir?

  • Yes, I did, and the results was more than what I was expecting, offcourss it is not as the rivals xz, Google pixel, htc 10... But it was so great to its range.

  • I bought SONY Xperia ultra dual mobile 2 months ago.... N fully satisfied by camera, screen size, ram, n specially the design edge to edge curved mobile..... I have only one problem that is the caller end sound and battery backup issue from day…

  • I have a question sir, do you personally saw the quality of the image that taken by XA ultra? Thanks.

  • I appreciate your concern sir, but any suggestion/opinion is appreciated.

  • I've had this phone for 4 months now. I have a feeling I could have done much better. I bought it in Canada, so the price was still very high. The most annoying feature is the low battery. It needs to be charged at least once a day unless it is completely idle. It I use a demanding function, like tracking a jog with GPS while listening to music, I lose half the battery. Also, the two times that I didn't manage to charge it before it went to zero, the phone lost it's back light, and I had to send it in for repairs. With my carrier, all Sony's have to be sent to a designated SONY repair centre, and both times it took 6 weeks to get my phone back. I find that with my carrier Freedom (wind) mobile, the reception is very bad when I'm in a valley, or my basement apartment, so I cannot use the phone's data while I'm at home. The picture quality is very nice, except in low light where everything is cast in a red light. The phone is so pretty as well, I love the speaker volume, and although sometimes the web apps can be slow, the non-data using apps always work well. Overall, I'd try something different next time, but this one will do for now.

  • In general, it was awesome, in lowlights specifically I don't remember :(. Why don't you go to YouTube, you find million review there.

  • Ali Bashir doesn't own this phone, so you are asking the wrong person. He owns a Z3 only. But he is in every Sony forum acting like a owner.

  • How about in the low light sir, is the quality of the image still good?

  • I had a problem with my camera, especially in the low light. What are the settings of your camera? It might be helpful to me, thanks in advance.

  • How about in the low light sir, is the quality of the image still good?

  • Not surprised you sold it in 20 days,any phone or most of them need at least 2-3 weeks to settle down,that means to update OS,apps and so on.Sure CPU first month work hard(overheating effect),plus you enable every thing,BT,WI FI,data+youtube,music just to try it.That phone is not flagship one,but come out with really good specs and affordable price,so use it wise and it will thank you with great experience.

  • Amazing fon.. You will never regret onea you own one.. Before im a fan of samsung because of the battery isues. This is my 1st time buying a sony fon. I super love it.. My next fon will definetly a sony..

  • I had been using Z3+ until it recently got stolen. I got another phone as replacement and trust me when i say, I miss my Z3+ a lot. I've been looking or a phone in that price bracket for quite a few days now and have not had much success. Z3+, even though a little low on the screen brightness scale, offered an amazing 20.5 MP primary camera and a very powerful 5 MP front camera. Because I am fond of phone photography, I was very satisfied with the specs this phone offered. The screen resolution was great, display was fine, even though the reds were a little muted. The pictures were clear and crisp, with amazing inbuilt filters and other options. Other than that, the storage was great, RAM was great. The phone ran smoothly, without giving me any trouble as far as the speed and operating the phone in general is concerned. Sure, it did heat up quite a lot, sometimes too quickly with gaming but it cooled down equally fast. The battery life a decent,lasted me more than half a day after moderate usage. The battery saver mode allow for battery life extension. Even when the battery drained quicker than I expected, the turbo charger made foe quick recharging. However, I would have appreciated a stronger battery. The UI was beautiful, with a lot of essential pre-installed apps. The phone, because of its dual glass panel, was a little slippery but the in-hand feel was beautiful. The glass was sturdy and did not damage itself even after I had dropped it a few times. Personally, I would recommend the phone based on my experience with it. I too am thinking of buying the same phone again. There's no such thing as a perfect phone but this one got as close as it could get. The pros outdid the cons. I don't know what the various experts would advice you to do, but as a commoner using the phone, I really liked it. :)

  • XA ULTRA is Third category fone. Worst fone ever in my life. Sold it within 20 days of purchase with loss. It was over heating, all d applications were not supported and unfortunately application doesnot support while opening gallery also. Battery drains very quickly. A9 pro is superb fone.

  • if i were in your shoe try to pick the xa ultra it han an insane specs and a really good quality when it comes to the camera and for a really reasonable price

  • i need to get a new sony phone and i was considering either this or the z3+ any advice

  • hey I bought a sony xa ultra and also bought a sd card but I cant program the phone that all new info of apps go into the sd card

  • Since the z3 including, this issue doesn't anymore, pretty sure.

  • except the great sony z ultra....

  • I have been a Sony phone user for over 10 years. I reckoned that the main problem of Sony products is either the Touch Screen Sensor problem overtime and the speakers. Camera and sound quality has always been fantastic. But The Screen touch is so annoying.

  • I am facing with overheating problem. I given the mobile to service center they updated software but still problem not rectified.

  • Get it to service, i have tested the camera of this smartphone, it is fantastic, i don't know why reviewers spots the lights only on the selfy camera, the primary also is awesome.

  • I have no case, sir, I think the problem is the led flash. I compared my two unit, the xperia M2 has whiter flash and the xa ultra has reddish flash. I don't know why it has a case like that.

  • I have this cel and have problems in the screen, it activate himself, add news gadget and other things, anybody happen same?

  • You're welcome. Playing MP3s with Bluetooth while driving for around 6 hours and of course cellular signal and data are still on: from 90%+ charge, it did not went below 40%. I guess if you'll be playing pure music and not using any other "signals", "apps", I think this will last 24 hours :) To achieve this, just turn on Stamina mode. Stamina mode ensures that only the App you are currently using gets full power allocation, the rest are like almost in sleep mode ^_^

  • Release the smartphone from the case then try another shot again with flashlight.

  • When it has led flash only sir. It is doing good in daylight, because no need to use the led flash.

  • I know it has flashlight, i meant to ask if it takes reddish pictures always or only when using flashlight??. I am not xa ultra owner, i just want to help you.

  • Does this phone supporys volte

  • It has flashlight sir, how about the performance of your camera sir? And may I ask the settings of your camera, thanks.

  • I am very disappointed with the camera. No good in low light, I don't understand why the image has reddish on the each side. I am talking about the back camera. I thought this one is a beast in taking a picture but the spec is just a joke. My old unit sony xperia m2 is much better than this one.

  • With flashlight or without??

  • Thanx Mate for replying,but I have a another question how much time/duration does it take for the battery to drain off completely if you only listen to music,without using data or do anything else

  • Good day! I just bought my XA Ultra, the reason why I have this device because of the camera. But I felt disappointed, in low light the quality of the image has a reddish on the side. I don't know if it is the settings or the device itself. Hopefull someone can give me some piece of advice, thanks.

  • Do not expect a 2016 bad smartphone, offcourss it is great, but check the specifications of this smartphone, is it compatible with your needs?? Especially the size 6 inches, the battery life looks for lite users....

  • Sony xperia XA ultra Android phone not playing videos in Dolby digital sound. Sony corporation is requested to send updates accordingly.

  • Can anyone using xa ultra without screen guard.. Is it scratch easily without guard.. .

  • i had bought xa ultra for my wife last august 2016 Design = Excellent (really beautiful for gold colour) Camera rear = Good Camera front = Excellent (LED flash & OIS) Speaker = Excellent (Clear & Loud 80db++) Mic = Excellent (can hear very clear everytime i call my wife) Screen = Excellent Signal = Average (weak compare to my xperia E3) Battery = Average (55h testing by gsmarena) Internal Memory = Average (10GB) If u like selfie, like to listen music and watch movie using ur phone XA Ultra will be a good choice

  • This product overall good or bad tell me pls..I have to plan buy this phone

  • Just make sure to buy from legitimate seller so that you will have the Sony warranty :)

  • If reading e-books, listening to music (radio or MP3), add watching movies, add taking pictures/selfies and occasional gaming: Xperia XA Ultra is a must have. Your eyes will thank you because of the video quality and screen size, PLUS great audio quality. The ONLY fault in the design of XA Ultra is the battery power. You can extend this by enabling Stamina mode all the time, but you might miss notifications from e-mail, facebook and the like. I own a black one and I bought a 10000mAh power bank, solved the battery problem :)

  • true ... was looking to upgrade from my Z3 ... but unfortunately, the XA Ultra only has 16gb ... and after deducting about 5 GB for the OS, left only about 11 gb for data and apps .... which is not enough at all ... same problem I am having now with my Z3. if they had a 64gb model I would definitely get it !!

  • Z5 premium absolutely.

  • I want to but this phone,so I can use it on occasionally ebbok reading and Listening to Music,how is the battery on these activities,how long does it take for the battery to drain completely???

  • I just buy my sony xperia XA ultra when i try to open the device ,i experience the battery is heating,while using to open the camera,is it normal guys or the battery is bad.what should i do?Or i will return the device ,,

  • Hi.Does this come with the latest security update & Marshmallow 6.0.1? Would you say this safe in minor splashes and light rain?

  • Witch one is better?Xa ultra or Z5 premium?

  • He said that he bought it already, and in general the battery is not bad, he didn't even claim about it lol.

  • don't buy it, the battery sucks, needs stamina every time

  • hi i just wanna ask you guys with xa ultra if u experience heating on your device when you are playing online games. is it normal or my device is defective? because i just bought my xa ultra 3days ago

  • Thank you for your response. Will do that ASAP and will give feedbacks.

  • Buy a screenguard film. It has something to do with static electriciry

  • It has something to do with static electricity. Consider buying a screen protector

  • Its 79db the loudest with clear sound ,Jeolusy will come to this phone owner huhh .cant wait to have one

  • I'm going to buy this phone tomorrow. Any information that I need to know? I don't want to waste my money.

  • I am having problems with ghost touching. Is anyone experiencing the same? Turning to stand by mode and turning it on again does not work anymore. I need to completely restart the device to temporarily solve the issue. Do you know any permanent fix? Thanks

  • Hi, I'm experiencing ghost touching with my XZ Ultra. Is anybody experiencing that as well? At first, putting the phone on stand-by mode then turning it on again works. But recently, it got worse. I need to restart my phone to temporarily fix it. If anyone knows a permanent fix, please let me know. Thank you.

  • yes

  • Dpi is not 367 it is 480

  • u lair

  • Camera is best screen best but very very bad thing is internal memory 16gb

  • is this phone are good for gaming like NBA2k17?

  • The very thing I want to say is that... If you are a brand addictive.. And love premium brands... Then it is the best midranger...

  • This phone is so good.

  • Battery life is average but over all it is good..

  • Is there any solutions for network issue for this phone ?

  • This phone so great, the battery is average, my tip for you is do not let the battery life stands between you and this amazing phone.

  • Is this phone good? I'm only planning to use it for text, music, facebook and instagram. What about the battery? Does it drain fast? Do you guys think this will be perfect for me? Sorry for my bad english. Thank you in advance.

  • Why so many negative comments? Im planning to bought one. Now ,so disappointed :-(

  • 16gb internal? How come that mine is 10gb internal memory only ?

  • may i ask is this a good phone?

  • Really? well you got unlucky then! cos mine has the best battery life I've ever had on any phone! Ive not once had bad signal either - I love this phone , one of the best Ive had. cwertainly by far the best battery life by a long shot - you probably never had battery save turned on or had too many shit apps running in the background !

  • should have bought i phone 7 wihtout the headphone jacks lolololol

  • do anyone know where can i find xa ultra lcd?

  • DONT BUY this device...this is my first and last handset from sony ..I used sony xperia xa ultra for 2 months..very bad gps signal always lost thats because it has weak antenna.also the battery drains too fast you may charge it 3 times if you are a heavy user..also touch screen not so good sometimes heavy...you can use the mobile phone for photography ONLY...I SOLD THIS PHONE AND I WILL NEVER GET SONY product AGAIN...NOW i got infinix zero 4 plus and i can say it is faaaaar better than xa ultra although infinx is not from higher brands like sony

  • 16gb internal? How come that mine is 10gb internal memory only ?

  • Is xa ultra suport volte .... I see a post in fb someone post there updt to enbl volte which is resld in mid of febry It true or not

  • What?!!!! Impossible, the primary and secondary cameras of these two beasts are amazing, the Xperia xa ultra has the best selfy camera in world.

  • Back and front camera not good in low light. Sony X, XA, Ultra are phones that carry the brand sony but not as good as the previous creations. Mediocre

  • Not poor at all, and you don't own any of these two smartphones, my xa can last 4-5 hours sot with moderate usage, not excellent but definitely not poor, just average.

  • Both xperia XA and XA ultra have a poor battery. Design is awesome but battery is terrible

  • You mean advertises?? Some applications cause it, check which application is causing it and uninstall it or disable it.

  • Not keen on my new phone constant pop ups even in the middle of a text it's driving me nuts wish I'd stuck with my I phone

  • this phones battery is not very good

  • super phone but battery problem

  • Sure, but keep in mind, the battery of this smartphone is AVERAGE, if you are a kind of people like me :) who spends a very long time by using their phones, the battery may not last too long.

  • Is it ok to buy sony xp XA Ultra?

  • Sony phones are not meant for every Tom, Dick and Harry out there. If you're not a true Sony fan kindly don't buy it.

  • I couldn't agree more.

  • Purchased in the month of August. Others are unable to hear my voice, if I restart my phone it is working fine. Battery I don't know how it is behaving..... 🙃 now headphone jack not working..... Please help me to troubleshoot the issues.

  • Tq for your information..i just use sony c5

  • Not waterproof..if you like to use waterproof phone with sony brand just use sony z1,2,3,5..also m4..

  • Did i talk to you.

  • dude.. dont tell me how to use a cellphone.

  • Don't know if you got permissions fixed. A screen overlay is an app like Facebook Messenger Chat Heads, or a dimming tool like Twilight or Lux. Close any chat heads and temporarily disable the dimming tools.

  • Thanks for the information ;-)

  • Ask him if he has it,in general review like that come from ppl who didn"t use the phone,or bought replica-cheep from eBay.My friend use this phone from July 2016,Zero problem,100% satisfied.Restart and clean the catch once awhile or after update that"s it.

  • YU, the problem is with your device, this device is selling in millions like hot cake, people are mostly satisfied with it, you are just bad luck :(, oh..why don't you send it to service?

  • DO NOT BUY ! DO NOT BUY! Lock button problem! Mic problem! Battery problem! GPS problem! Touch screen sensitivity problem! My life is a mess since having XA Ultra!! Hope sony make a better phone. still loving SONY

  • Hello guys,I wants to bought xa ultra can u suggest me guys can I bought or not?????

  • Have u connected ur mob with high speed network? Try it once n update ur mob.... Then everything will b alright... My mob is working awesomely..... Enjoying camera quality n sound..... Specially its design that is edge to edge.... Xperia xa ultra rocks..... Great n awesome mobile

  • Nothing wrong with this phone,well done Sony,but wrong ppl bought it.When you paid 300-400$,don"t expect from device to work like 1000$ device,want big battery-pay,amuled-pay,the last CPU-pay and so on.Don"t complain,but learn to use it wisely and then you will enjoy using it.

  • is this phone suporrrted with fast chargeing?!

  • Your xa ultra was definitely defected.

  • Good Phone!

  • please guys dont buy sony xperia xa ultra dual phone. it is like wasting money. i purchase this smartphone in november. but within 15 days it started heating like shit and started rebooting all of sudden. sometimes i am on call and it just goes off and get restart. suddenly its mic stops working and again after restart mic works properly. its battery is like hell. not works even for six hours. phone becomes hot and battey goes empty. i am really disappointed with this phone. i feel like i wasted 28000 rs.

  • Anybody knows what's d date of nought update for sony xperia xa ultra dual indian version please inform or reply...

  • My head hurts after I read this opinion.

  • People, first of all I 100% disagree, this smartphone with its specifications are made for kind of people with kind of usage, if you are not that kind of people then this device is not yours, and this doesn't make sony Xperia a fool company, just not yours...

  • how to open album?

  • Agreed

  • Hey there, what do you mean by make it always on??

  • Ok bro...

  • Before telling Sony to do anything..please learn English

  • Disable any pre installed Sony applications that u don't need/use and use stamina mode and make it always on, adjust the light to lower. Just readjust it if ur gonna use camera

  • The best you can do is use stamina mode and make it always on. Disable those pre installed Sony applications that u don't need like news, what's new, and etc

  • Friends tomorrow I will going to buy Sony Xperia xa ultra May I right or not?? Please tell me what I do?

  • I bought my phone 6 days ago, my phone is good, regarding the battery life you can go to settings click battery,click stamina mode and choose always on, i hope it helps.

  • Non-curved tempered glass will leave the edge uncovered,which leads to problems in viewing items at edge as well as in sensitivity of touch screen

  • Is it work???

  • Same problem here... Battery life easily drained, and the overheating thing.. Its sucks!

  • I'm buying sony xperia xa ultra it is good but sometimes the automatically sound increase every time and touch also not good. What I do any solution for this problem tell me any one thanks

  • Problem with the front camera.. Always error hep

  • dont buy it. battery life is very poor n phone hangs too much. i bought it two months before, not a good idea to pufchase it

  • Hi. I got my sony xa ultra 3 weeks ago.. but I recently noticed overheating and the battery is easily drained in less than 24hrs.. can somebody help me resolve this? is this still good unit or defective already? somebody help, pls? thanks..

  • I advised not putting screen protector. It looks awful. I had mine removed. Unless there will be available protector that is curved too

  • Got my phone just last night. At first I got problem with headset jack. The headphone wasn't working. I tried using 3 different headsets,same problem. Then i tried to push it harder down inside,then it worked! Dang! Don't scare me like that. When I checked the jack,there was a tiny scrap metal inside😂😂😂 My place is 45mins away from where I bought it! The taxis here are very expensive! 😂 Anyways, I love it, except that within 10mins of charge(the stamina mode was ON),from 100%,it down to 88% !!! 😭And I was just reading manga!

  • I bought it and at first I had problems with curved temper glass but on of the shop keeper had an idea how to fix it he put two rubber bands above and below the touch screen and not to take for atleast 12 hours

  • The phone is excellent ...i consider the best buy of 2016

  • XA Ultra

  • Yes for sure, but keep in mind the battery life is average, just good, definitely not poor, both cameras are amazing...

  • is this really a good phone? bcoz m planning to buy it

  • The battery sucks. The rest is fine!

  • Why I will be careful next time? It is not something can broke with take SD card inside. It was broken from package opening. Even if I was broken. That part should fell down.

  • the answer is NO. you need to change to 3G or 2G to make a call

  • what is better screen xperia c5 ultra or xperia xa ultra plz answer me

  • Next time be careful, this place is very sensitive, you had to insert it slowly and carefully.

  • I bought new Sony Xperia XA Ultra. I opened phone. After updates. I put SD card inside. It did not work. I gave back shop which I bought. They send it Sony guarantee. Sony send me answer with photo. Which broken part inside SD card slot. They said I broke :) It is like joke. I definitely do not recommend Sony phones! I will never buy. I will not let people around me buy! Advice from me you do not buy too. If your phone will be broken from package opening. It will be your fault. And they will want money from you. Just they did for me.

  • The phone is all good except it's battery. Really frustrated with the battery performance. Even my $33 Amazon tab lasts 3 times longer than it.

  • Hi all, I am a Sony fan. Previously I was using xperia TX, its was awesome. About 10 years I was using different Sony mobiles. I was so glad about the phones. Then I bought xperia XA ultra on November month. Sony disappointed me by launching it. Other then selfish camera & loud speakers the rest are worst. 50% satisfied...

  • The primary camera of this smartphone is fabulously amazing, it can compete with the rivals easily, unbelievable!!

  • It supports volte or not ???? Plz reply

  • This product has 2 major problems... 0) WIFI is weak. I got this phone just a week it came to my country. this was my first impression after I filled up all the warranty notes at Sony Store, the next few hours I need to connect to my mobile / pocket wifi. and believe me, i have a pretty hard time connecting to it. though after few weeks and months they got more system updates. still they never corrected it. I have my other phones with me but wifi connectivity is good and have no problem but his phone sucks at it. This phone and my pocket wifi is place side by side but the wifi bar is weak and interment. 1) it says 16GB internal but it is only 10Gb usable in total. so you need to very very very careful on saving storage. Though it has option to transfer photos / videos to SD, it is just up to that. While not all android app supports moving to SD, then you have that very big storage problem. 2) takes 3 minutes to BOOT. imagine that. with the useless Xperia logo animation. Good thing they removed the PIN before you boot. RESOLVE the wifi.

  • C5 ultra also have display problem... All 6 inch mobile have display problem..

  • What are the two signing in's that you have to do on the sony xa ultra.

  • Thank u for the reply... I m using the same but bro ordinary glass makes the mobile looks simple just like other mob... Anyways I m not discussing....

  • No you can't use curved tamperd glass on this mobile... It has glue only on sides and it will automatically gets detached from screen when you remove mobile from pocket.. Better use ordinary tamperd glass with back cover... Im doing the same and it solved my problem...

  • What about the camera of sony xa ultra. What will be the rating out of 10 for camera from u guys

  • got the phone for a week now. think it´s great but i seem to have a problem with transfering the apps the sd card. any app bigger the 70 mb won´t transfer to the sd card. it say´s there is not enough memory. that´s strange because i got a 64 gb sd card in there and only used 2 gb so far.( anybody have a solution for that ) beside that the phone work great with games. the sound is the loudest i ever had on a smart phone.yes the battery drains quickly but just put it in stamina mode and you will go on the whole day.

  • I Want to use myanmar font with sony xperia XA ultra . How can i get myanmar font.

  • Hi Guyz,, is it safe to update the software for Sony Ultra XA, Do you guys recommend to update the software or it will just slow down the phone and more problem with the battery. I am having hesitation of updating it since previously, I have seen comments that when you update the phone it will just be a head ache.. Thanks!!!!

  • where can i buy it ... link ..pls or other than any other is besr like qualcomm2.0 quick charge

  • Got my new sony xperia xa ultra last nov.. I switch frim samsung to sont since it got a heating issues on battery.. I super love the fon. I didnt encounter problems.. I definitely go for sony phones. Next to buy is the sony smart watch..

  • sony uch12w

  • what type of quick charge should i use for this phone any suggestion

  • I just bought my xa ultra this week, while i rebooted my phone, the screen suddenly display red streaks, after a while when it rebooted completely, it was gone. what seems to be the problem on the phone? Is it a glitch or what?

  • I love this phone. This is my first Sony and what attracted me was the big screen, decent cameras and less than half the cost of lot of the flagship phones. I have zero complaints for this phone really. Storage is a non issue as I'm using SD card. Camera is something I use a lot on my phones and pleased with both the front and back camera. Battery hasn't been an issue for me as many suggest it is. It gets me an entire day without issue and charges fast with the included charger. Stamina mode can also get me through two full days between charge if needed. This mode can be customized as well to suit your needs. Indicator LED also has multiple colours which is nice. So happy with this phone and Sony. My next phone will very likely be another Sony, I'm hooked!

  • good

  • 2700 MA bettary is poor

  • 16 GB is too low

  • Use a memory card to store stuff on instead of the phone's internal memory. You're making a case about nothing.

  • Do xperia xa ultra have a gyroscope, so i can use it on a vr... Thanks

  • Hey Ali, is it possible to download apps in sd card? I thought its still a problem for apps to be downloaded in sd card.

  • Use SD card!! Lol

  • Amon dark...... I m fully agreed with u..... Xperia xa ultra rocks..... I want to ask something.. Have u got tempered glass for this mobile.... I need fully curved means Edge to edge

  • I Waited long for such kind of Premium Selfie Capable Phone to upgrade my HTC Desire Eye. but however finding out that there is only Poor 16GB storage version (Same as the HTC which is 2 years old) disappointed me badly. Imho Sony should Update it with 64GB version and discontinue the current model. what a waste.

  • Been using this phone for 3 months already. The phone has small battery lifespan but it has built-in Stamina mode, which when activated would make your phone last up to 55 hours. The camera is good compare to its same-class phones, it's bevel-less on left and right sides. If you're into gaming, this phone is also a good use.

  • lol what's with these people... xa ultra has 2700 mah, any phone using a mobile data can drain its battery in short length of time... lol xa is ultra is fabulous and its an amazing phone.. it is natural that the front camera is capturing blurd images, it is maybe u have enabled the auto focus function. lol hahahaha ive been using this phone for almlst 4 months and i dont see any problem with its features.. and besides if you really want to have a longer battery life, just activate the stamina mode of your xa ultra..

  • Just maintain the current status of your internal memory. Evrytime you install an apps, transfer it to the SD card. Also, save photos and videos on SD card.

  • Thanks man, for telling us the phone's battery and antenna is bad. I was about to buy it. But won't now.

  • Sony Xperia XA Ultra is a awesome mob :)

  • Love the phone, Love the camera, but hate the memory in the phone. Sony supposedly gives you a 16gb memory in this phone but fills more then half up with apps we don't use! What am I supposed to do to have enough memory in my phone for apps I DO need??? All my pictures and music and videos are in my memory card. I've cleared my msg. And I've cleared my emails. What else can I do??? Pls help!

  • DONT BUY THIS PHONE..I have for 2 months .the battery is very weak for this monster , drain very fast which made me hate this handset, ALSO the GPS Is too weak, anntena is very bad, always lost the signal ,,, This is the main problems of this phone , any thing else is good but i dont advice any one to get xa ultra

  • Would like to ask if XA Ultra is OTG ready? Thanks

  • Me too. :-(

  • It's not waterproof.

  • My Xperia XA Ultra takes blurry pictures with the front camera???? That is a huge dissapointment. I always take pictures on "auto". Camera on my previous phone ( Xperia Z1 )was much better. I always had razersharp pictures with my Z1.

  • Battery runs out pretty fast and charging is slow ( unless you use charging dock or UCH12). Phone hangs sometimes but still usable. Some minor bugs exist but still an awesome phone.

  • The big difference of those phones are the size and updates... the XA Ultra have 6 inch and the Honor 7 5.2 inch. In the update part i think most likely the Honor 7 will be stuck on Marshmallow, the XA ultra will have Nougat.

  • I am very confused! I cannot decided...one of my choices is sony xperia xa ultra...I don't know what to do.My second option is huawei honor 7.What do you think ; do you have sth else to recommend;

  • Do you problem with battery;

  • Same problèm, but me, its too sensitive !

  • Please buy j7 prime, interm of battery life, it is superbs. But the opposite only display bcoz its use tft screen only..but not too much different with super amoled. Battery life i can tell you it can hold 14 hours of using with data plan enable.

  • You must be a new born baby to consider the Xperia Z2 as "prehistoric" phone... is old but still very capable than most current low even mid end smartphones, but I agree that battery can get old and not provide enough juice after all those years.

  • The battery is too weak for the size of mobile and Alasae to use the Internet was a necessary battery is less need 3,600 bear Xue on a screen 6 inches. . . . if possible change for a larger battery 🔋 best

  • please provide the accessories for XA Ultra

  • XA Ultra, i'm already using it...its the best out of those you mentioned

  • Hahaaa... Ur just type of user that should hanging a desktop or notebook at ur neck... So that u will have all those function available... Pity for u...

  • which is better,htc e9+ vs xa ultra

  • hey which one is better hawawi mate 8 or x a ultra or htc x9??????

  • I just bought sony x a ultra mobile. I m ok with it but the problem i m facing with it is when i m using skype or viber and if i minimise and jump to home screen, it stops working. If any one have any suggestion or idea to fix it. Plz

  • Lol, Xperia z2 and z3 batteries are legends, probably your battery is old in age or not genuine or defected....

  • You have z2? That is prehistoric old phone. Ofcourse battery is weak if your phone is 5 years old

  • sony battery is weak , my xperia z2 is crap cant use my phone in long hour of gaming and browsing and the battery is heating so much, does your admin make some improvement, now Im shifting in other product I prefer htc or Lenovo I want longer battery in gaming and surfing..

  • I have this phone the battery is not the best

  • How can you put in a high end device that crap chinese cpu ?

  • What's about heating.?

  • You need to make sure all background apps were closed and that your timeout for locking the screen is at most 5 minutes. Phones having greater than 5" screens drains battery fast. XA Ultra's 2700mAh is good for medium use for one day charge. If you play games, you will need to charge twice or more daily...

  • Thanks! Will post how it feels.

  • I've had the phone 3 days, apart from the battery the phone is amazing.

  • Hey guys , i wanna buy a new phone, do you recommend which phone to me ? Sony Xperia XA Ultra Or HTC ONE X9 Or Samsung Galaxy J7 prime?

  • XZ

  • Been using this phone since 3weeks ago, i feel so sucks since the first day i bought it. Battery runs out so so so fast when i don't even touch and using. Lol how many times do i need to charge in a day? Fully charge at night but then left half when i wake up at the next day.

  • Xperia x for sure, but keep in mind no waterproof and 4k video recording like z5.

  • So... I'm days away from buying a new phone and I have no one to ask this, Which phone is better: Xa Ultra, X, Z5, I'm only not so sure of the Z5 because it's already 1 year old. Please someone clear my mind, Which one should I get and why? thanks!.

  • Very bad 🔋 battery

  • No sombo, you will charge it one time during a day if you exhaust it on purpose.

  • for wifi disconnect that from saving battery when u don't download or uplod throw the wifi it disconnect for saving battery this is Stmania mode u can solve this in setting > Battery (Power)

  • the battery is so small, you need to charge 2 times a day maybe.

  • Wifi connection always disconnected. Very annoying as I don't have such problem with my other devices.

  • Glad to see you happy with your phone.

  • I just bought this phone. I love it. my gaming experience is amazing

  • This is my 1st sony phone, since i had my previous fon which is all samsung, because of the battery issues in samsung so i switch to sony,ive been using this fon for about a month already. So love this fon, i didnt encounter problems.. I go for sony... Love it!!!

  • I think you got a fake

  • Are you new to mobile. In other words, are you going to buy your first mobile in your life. I wonder how can one compare Android with Apple. Both are different experiences. I can agree this question only if you are a first time mobile user or if you are a kid, who wishes to try his/her first mobile. It is just like asking a question, "Chicken or mutton".

  • Camera is very good when compared with this rage phones. I can send picture no problem.

  • In my opinion, this is very good phone, Exellent picture clarity, Both front and Back Camera are vary good, Battary is not good. Battary is not enough for heavy use. But it is enough for modarate use. I give 9/10 (Mark)

  • Hey guys , i wanna buy a new phone , do you recommend this phone to me ? Or iPhone 5s which one deserves ?

  • I agree :).

  • All reviews are not true. Sony Xperia XA Ultra dual phone is really world 🌍 class, I am using this phone. Really amazing, not any issue. Superb mobile phone

  • It's a nice mobile .. Better battery life Go for it

  • Hey there, be careful, the most of negative posts here are only trolls, overall, this smartphone is very good to its price, the battery is not poor like some people are arguing, it is not the best, but good.

  • You will like this phone!

  • This phone is better than Xperia Z Ultra, I don't play games.

  • Scratch resistant glass!! Not even gorilla glass. Ate they joking? And the battery!!!! For 6" it should have 3400mAh atleast.. and not water resistant!! Why sony why?? . Conclusion: good for only those who wants to buy a digital camera!

  • I am not a techie person nor one who has/have gadget(s) coz my purchasing power is limited. But I want a new smartphone. I want it big and with Android OS. Then I saw this XA Ultra while at the mall and realized I like it. But reading your comments, it seems that it doesnt live up to your expectations. Now I am bit discouraged. :(

  • Xperia XA Ultra is very disappointing. I am writing a review based on my personal experience in using this phone. I have never been so disappointed like this before, I love Sony Xperia phones and I have been a Sony user ever since but this particular unit disappoints and annoys me big time. 1. WIFI connection failure. This is unit is very poor when it comes to WIFI connecting. We have several gadgets at home, laptop and other phones and they can perfectly connect to the wifi. XA Ultra would always kick out itself from the connection. Our WIFI at home has an excellent connection and I never had a problem connecting my other phones to it. 2. Battely life is poor. (If you really wanna have this unit, make sure you have powerbank) 3. Brightness of the phone isn't really that much. If you're used to other xperia phones, you'll get upset with XA Ultra's brightness and display. 4. Blurry camera. 21 mp rear camera, nope. Images appear blurry and the quality of the camera is not flattering. 5. Errors in sending photos using apps. This is what really annoys me. You take pictures, then try to send it to a person in messaging apps and wrong picture would be sent. I thought it was just a glitch or just human error, I keep testing it and everytime I send pictures, the picture that would be sent is not the one that you chose to send. So, yeah I don't recommend this phone. So many wrong things and it's not worth buying it.

  • SERIOUS ISSUES WITH THE HANDSET: - 1) Unwanted and Nuisance creating and spece occupying Apps are preinstalled & occupy a space of approx 7 to 8 GB out of total 16 GB. We never even i tend to use apps like sony LIV, Amazon Kindle, Hungama Play, Midnight Pool (Game), Lounge, Weather, Play Station, Facebook, Play Movies and so on. 2) A user can not Uninstall the Apps. If u disable it, your phone starts malfuncting or it wont work properly. 3) Anything you download, goes to Internal memory (there is no option for saving the downloads directly on SD card , so within minutes, the internal memory becomes full. Moreover, there is only one option to transfer photos and videos to SD card, however most of the times, it does not detect the data which can be transfrtted to SD card. So all the process has to be done manually. 4) The available internal memory is very low. any app a cutomers donloads from Play store goes to internal memory only. some apps have the option to change the storage from Internal Memory to SD card, but the application apps can not be transferred. 5) The Photo or Videos saved on SD card can not be shared via whats app / Facebook etc. There is no method to transfer from SD card to Internal memory 6) The placement of Volume Key is absolutely wrong. The key gets pressed when a customer holds the phone in hand. 7) When a customer types an sms and reaches the 4th line, then it can not scroll up to the 1st line. So when the sms is typed, one can review it in edit form from 2nd line only 8) A video player with very old version is pre-installed and set as default. The video can not be fast forwarded or reversed unless dragged by a minute pointer. The virtual keys for Adjusting Brightness, Volume or zoom in and out are not available. A customer can not change the default video player. 9) Whatever customised setting a cutomer does for ease in regular operations like keeping regular apps shortcut or default ringtone etc, all these is automatically modified to factory Default whenever there is Software Update / Software Repair with SONY Companion Tool etc. Even after reporting all these problems on various platforms, representatives of SONY CORPORATION have not buddged at all and just keep repeating about their Policy and Framework. No one has given any solutions to the problems yet. Even a low end CHINESE handset has got all these features now a days and with lots of other facilities. Its a challange to see whether SONY CORPORATION a Japanese Copany can resolve these issues

  • Returned my GN7 last month and have been tossing up getting another large phone. It's a shame that the XAU battery life is so terrible and it is only 16GB internal :-(

  • it has really scratch resistant glass??

  • Coc suck battery very fast and overheats the smartphone like toast, i am playing this game from two years, the problem of this game that it doesn't have a graphics options...

  • Of cours.... AndroidRock, keep in mind this app will affect the multitasking performance.

  • may i know which developer for the said TASK KILLER APP. ty

  • Little bit disappointed. The battery drainning very fast. 2 hours playing COC consumed 100% of battery life.

  • It comes with fingerprint sensor. But not in the US since it wipl be a copyright to HP. (Fingerprint scanner on power buttons) Just flash custom firmware

  • My first XA ultra had a camera error problem. Randomly making message tone. Also had a yellow stain top right corner. I recieved my brandnew 2nd XA ultra today through warranty and now the problem Is camera error. N extremely hot. Could be a hardware issue for all models. Sucks ;(

  • no, it doesnt have a fingerprint sensor

  • i have some doubt about its performance beacuse of "media tech" chip set any help here???

  • Nope.

  • Is that phone avai. With fingerprint censor unlocking feature?

  • Definitely not.

  • Generally any mobile phone will consume power if your mobile data connection is always active. So is the case with WiFi too.

  • Its not water resistant

  • Are you going to take under water photographs or videos or just you want to insert your phone in water and play with it. Actually, the water resistant feature of a phone adds up it's cost further. Generally, one can use an android phone for the maximum of 2 years or less because either the battery will die or the software will become obsolete. Moreover no one would drench their phone in rain. Now to answer your question Sony Xperia XA Ultra is not water resistant.

  • i have received my xperia xa dual yesterday and its awesome phone look very nice and sleek design and performance was too good no hang problem and battery backup is 12 to 13 hrs without stamina mode on thank q sony and amazon

  • hey guys alrdy upgrade to Android nougat? i have one problems with this phone when i insert earphones or headphones they not show any notification above screen.. this notification bug or what.. any 1 have this problem? help thx :)

  • in the store, they said it's Water resistant. in other store said it is not. can someone tell me the truth? tHANKS

  • thanks, it's confusing because this web site says it hasn't. bun in other pages says it has gyro

  • Either you have huge background processing "application working in the background" which means that you have to use stamina mode, or it is a bug, update the version or wait for an update. Be careful, some applications may cause this issue.

  • Guys i just bought this phone few days back..... Everything fine except BATTERY.. its discharging very fast and the main culprit is "CELL STANDBY" Last night left at 100% and morning when i woke up found the battery level at 72 % 28% in 8 hrs...freaking insane..... how to get rid of this ...???????? PLS HELP FOR CAMERA THOSE WHO HAVE PROBLEM ILL SUGGEST TO DOWNLOAD OPEN CAMERA FROM PLAY STORE ...ITS THE BEST CAMERA APP FOR XA ULTRA.

  • I just bought my new Xperia XA ultra earlier and my camera is so blurry. what to do?

  • Sure dude that's why thus cell has very good User Reviews! Bottom line,,,, just imagine Excellent Sony reviews for there Flagship Beasts!! Haha

  • I am an avid user of sony xperia for years now. It has been my favorite cellphone brand, from xperia p to xperia C, from c3, I never had regrets until now. I bought my xperia c5 ultra on April 2016 and I loved it, it was the best for me but 2 days ago, the phone suddenly shut down and I cannot turn it on. The system crashed, it was weird because It was perfectly working then all of a sudden I can't use it anymore. So now i have to send it to the service team, glad it's still under warranty. Then I bought a new one which is the xperia XA ultra and I have never been so disappointed like this before. The display quality is poor, camera is blurry and the battery life is terrible. I very particular of the camera app because I love taking pictures and I bought this unit because of the camera features but I very disappointed with the quality and I Truly regret getting this phone.

  • does this phone have Gyro? some sources says yes and others says no. I want to know if is compatible with VR

  • I have Sony Xperia XA Ultra for 2 months and really I am very happy with this phone. Screen is nice, good speed in internet browsing, battery consumption acceptable, speaker sound level really high, camera takes very good photo, I use it almost all days and nights and could not find any issue.

  • You can change it from internal to external. On settings: 1. Click Apps 2. Click on the app you installed (ex. NBA2k16) 3. Click on Storage 4. Click on Change - it will show dialog box "Change Storage" - there you can change from Internal to SD Card. Hope it helps! :)

  • 16 gb memory, 8 GB free, but you can expand it by sd card if you want, so never mind.

  • Yes there is in the right side, it blinks when you have notifications, connections and battery. red when charging..etc.

  • What do you mean by saying no storage? Pls.specify..

  • Hey there, yesterday I found an application called "Task killer", this application has the ability to boost your phone and save battery power automatically on time, download it and activate auto task killer from its settings, try it, good luck.

  • In my opinion this phone is very good, so i suggest every one buy this phablet. i bought this and i satisfied from this cell as whole.just buy and dony doubt.

  • Dont buy sony xperia XA ultra.Its worst mobile i ever seen.No battery back up,no camera clarity,no storage,Voice disconnection,no netwrk.

  • To my experience using battery saver apps none., what I do is after full charge of battery I extend one hour charging I noticed it trickle up to 10mins in addition to its battery life

  • I just bought the phone 1 week ago today and I think it's good so far but here's my issue we pay anywhere from 400-1000 dollars for these bloody phone and they all come with shitty earphone the ones that Sony a brand known for superior audio won't even stay in my God damn ears I am so passed at this at least apple and Samsung sends the ones with rubber tips that stay in the bloody ears. I mean come on Sony seriously this is bloody ridiculous your cheap Pos. Earbuds have lousy quality and won't stay in the freaking ear.

  • And then you can now turn on your storage for the app for photos

  • What is main issues in XA ultra?

  • hi guys. just want to ask whats the BEST Battery saver you can recommend. and if its okay to have many battery saver app in your phone?

  • Ok go to settings then apps then press AVG Protection then press 'disable'. That's it turning off system overlay.

  • Nay use a fake poster on Sony cells,,, Sony has known for Quality, performance and durability!!! Hahaha

  • 3 phones replaced by warranty, all of them with yellow line in screen very close to power button. someone else with same problem?

  • Did you try turning off your Antivirus? This is one of those app this system overlay wants you to turn off, try this, and lets see what happens

  • When i am using it, sometimes it shows'ui system has stopped ' and screen turns into black. Then i have to restart my phone. Is it major issue. I buy i 4 days ago

  • I also faced the same exact problem. This is due to the high security feature of android 6 and above. The only way to turn it off is to factory reset the phone. Sorry but this is THE only way. Hope it helps Thanks

  • very bad cell phone very bad guarantee always the speakerphone to low volume low signal

  • what about battery?

  • I bought this phone yesterday and i am quite dissapointed when it comes to performance. I lost my xperia C5 ultra last week that is why I bought xperia xa Ultra since they have a lot of similarities and xa ultra camera has 21mp and 16 mp. Images were blurred and laggy. Battery life is really a mess. I'm not happy. I could swap this to my stolen c5 ultra if given a chance. Dont buy this phone.

  • I got 2 devices for me and my GF, 2 months ago and after only 25 days I found a very big yellow spot on It's screen up left side and for sure It's a very bad device I have ever had due to the following reasons in addition: -Over heating. -Very weak network strength. -Very poor material. -The software needs many developments. I contacted Sony Egypt manytimes and they didn't give any support and they already doesn't have spareparts because the mobile is new here. Finally, I'm going to sell this mobile and losing my money...

  • I bought this device and it is working perfectly fine If you are having issues in its battery there is a thing called POWERBANK man

  • I am confused between oppo f1s plus xa ultra or gionee s6s

  • Hey everyone....does anyone know id the dual-sim F3216 will work on Wind Mobile in Canada? I'm getting conflicting information online....I'd much rather buy the dualsim version but if it has to be the F3213 so be it...thanks!!!

  • Root it

  • "does the xa ultra have lagging issues ??? and is it a gwd for gaming and watching movies??" Certain apps can lag the cpu ( candy crush to name one) but with advanced task manager ( download in google play..highly reccomend it) you can simply turn off the app. if you don't the system gets a little laggy but nothing thats going to stop your gaming by no means. Is it good for watching movies ? HELL YEAH! full hdmi ( assuming the movie is in 1080p) gives you crisp and clear pictures. I would suggest turning on super vivid mode ( >settings / >display / >Image enhancment select super vivid mode to maximize colours while viewing photos and videos, giving you a surreal, vibrant and super vivid images. If your thinking about getting this phone, I would suggest it. I have had it for 4 months now and trust me, I have put this thing through it's paces. I develop apps on this phone and test them out ON THIS PHONE. never had an issue what so ever and I recently upgraded from my Samsung Galaxy Note ( yes the ancient original note which btw still works perfectly) to the xperia xa ultra and loving every minute of it.

  • Having a problem with my camera.more often displays error, maybe in use in other applications even not in use. Did a factory reset already but still the same. Help. Deos any one has a suggestion?

  • Thats makes a sense why your battery is draining very fast, disable these applications from the settings, apps....

  • Internal storage is at capacity and can't move apps onto SD card. Can someone show me pls

  • Wifi is fidgety on home and office routers. The exclamation mark comes on next to it. Did a reset too, still the same problem. Wonder if Sony would provide an update for this. Rest all is good.

  • Ever since, I love Sony mobile and I am not looking for other devices because I have given my trust to Sony. I bought this XA ultra last three months and its working fine, the design is awesome. The thing that disappoints me is the battery - it lasts only five to six hours for continuous internet surfing thru 4G LTE network connection. And the worst is there are TONS of bloatware. For a 3 GB RAM, you have only 0.9 GB available, almost 2 GB consumed by useless applications that you cannot uninstall.

  • Yes it has LED notification indicator

  • How do you adjust the power settings for battery to last?

  • Well i just bought it at few days ago at sony centre but i was asking the staff is it available in white color but they told me only lime gold and black, they said only this two color lol, and the first day i using and charging my phone, its kinda fast heating

  • This smart phone is super amazing very very nice. I am using this device since 2 months. Its just wow!

  • can view sinhala font?

  • Please advise if the Xperia XA Ultra has a built in LED indicator?

  • does the xa ultra have lagging issues ??? and is it a gwd for gaming and watching movies??

  • Uchiha, don't worry, the battery life of xa ultra is above average, battery capacity is not everything

  • Turn off the phone, take the SIM card out clean the SIM card re-insert the SIM card and then turn ON the phone. It's a guarantee that your phone will work after performing those steps.

  • Can anyone upload the preloaded photos in the phone which can be seen in the Album apps.

  • why sony always cut the battery capacity this 2700mah is small for 6inch screen and gpu

  • Why my xperia xa ultra got issue during video playback. The screen will stop moving while sound keep on playing. Not only streaming but local video also. Even i playback recorded video also same. Anyone can comment how to solve it?

  • Ok, Thank u so much .

  • how??

  • My xa ultra was delivered before 4 months ago, before placing a order i was worried about that its a new launched phone, is it work well or not. But now i m satisfied with its performance witgout any problem, battery is not bad 14R wid data, & very fast charging. No heating issue, Camera osum, I think its good for big hand at Rs 28k

  • The worst phone I ever had. Very bad signal quality.

  • i love the color and design but im pretty disappointed with battery life 2700 mah is no good for gaming and watching movies.

  • i love japanese technology

  • yes / its amazing phone i really impress with this phone nice look /good ram and camera is also best with compare to all samsung brands this is 6 inches phone

  • this phone is very nice and i hope that you will also become effected with this phone . its very amazing phone really nice

  • Yes , it does and can be customised too to give different colours for different notifications say , red for charging white for messages from a particular group green for missed calls etc etc. you can even specify it for a person

  • Sera, the Xperia xa ultra is twice powerful than t2 ultra, and the screen resolution of xa ultra is twice better than t2 ultra, and the overheat is a common thing happens with powerful smartphones especially when playing games, even iphone 6 overheats, so there is no need to worry, play games as much as you want.

  • Amazing stuff

  • did u already tried removing the tempered glass? does the touch sensitivity improved? reply is much appreciated. I am having the same issue.

  • Does Sony X peria Xa Ultra have led indicator?which means,when some notifications have come,on the face sony,it has a light to show its have a message or someone else..Hopefully anyone can answer my question.Thank you.

  • m using it and n its super awesome

  • I bought my XA Ultra one week ago. I bought this one to replace my T2 Ultra which became slower after two years of usage. What I really like with XA Ultra is thin bezel screen, excellent camera, good speaker and premium design. It is quite good on performance. I'm still trying to explore the capabilities of this phone. What I recently encountered problem is a minor heat issue on top back of the phone whenever I play games (this I didn't experience with T2 Ultra, I even tried to play COC with these 2 phones at the same time but only XA Ultra is giving this minor heat issue). The battery is really way low compare with T2 Ultra though they have difference of 300 mAh but still it will not last one day especially if your data is on or if you continuously play games (maybe the chipset of XA Ultra is eating too much battery than T2 Ultra). For the internal memory of 16 GB, you can have 50% (8GB) available for you to use for installing apps and you can move your apps to SD cards (not all of them like FB). It's is also hard to look for a tempered glass which can cover full front of the phone, for the meantime I have a tempered glass which covered most of the screen but keep 3mm of side screen bezel which the area of the curve/round bezel. I also encountered problem with touch sensitivity which maybe due to tempered glass (maybe I will tried to remove it in order to test it), sometimes I need to double tap the apps or the screen buttons before it reacts. It is also heavy compare with previous Ultra models - I'm really curious where they add that extra grams on the phone with a lesser battery capacity - maybe the camera?

  • I bought the Ultra Dual Hong Kong version of this phone with a lot of hope that perhaps I will be able to use this phone for at least 4-5 years - which faded as soon as I took an overseas trip to China. The damn phone does not allow you to switch off both the sims if you want to! What the hell! Why not??? What this means folks, is, that either I keep the connection to my home sim on when traveling overseas or activate the overseas sim in my home country in order to switch off the home sim. This is horrendous. Why is the user being forced to pay roaming charges on either one of the numbers...why??? Whats wrong with Sony software programmers? I've used many of the Xperia models which were good, but only because I did not know better, and after having tried the LG V10, there simply is no comparison between the Xperia and LG V series. The ability to select any Sim or number, and completely switch off the two without having to go into flight mode is convenience to experience. Plus the DAC circuitry for listening to Hi Fidelity music, 4GB ram with 64GB storage and expandable storage upto 2TB capacity and the switchable battery. A winner hands down without even mentioning the beautiful screen and the second screen utility. Viva LG! ... Life is really good with this product! I traded in my 1 week old XA Ultra for LG V10 which I already started to miss since I got the Sony XA Ultra Dual.

  • do u have a tempered glass?

  • Definitely not.

  • kenboi2 really appreciate that,going to try this,thanks. For some one who look for great phone for a good price this one is to go.

  • Go for chinese phone brand..cheers :D

  • A little story if I may..... From moto G, moto G3 > Sony Xperia X(returned as unit faulty...seemed speedy device ...even with fault). ;noted XA Ultra seemed similar...on paper Sorry to say seems not to be /or, XA also faulty out the box?! - Screen stuttering occasionally browsing chrome..ytube Screen brightness seems not adjustable past/below half way mark (various combinations: on/off adaptive brightness, screen enhancement(s) etc...) (Compared: moto G) moving apps / file management seems challenging at best Appreciate beautiful craftsmanship ofthese Sony devices an seems Sony may be edging forward with quality manufactured hardware ...Software imimentation seems 'off' and not quite there ime Nova installed pretty much immediately photo management album app appears mixed backup date arrangement ..following several fail attempts, looking at gallery apps.. Sorry Sony I may bail until nxt iterations... bit disappointed I guess. tl;dr Hardware seems good, software seems 'unfinished' ..bt ohso smooth inplaces ( rtn to moto?!...)

  • Hey thanks for your reply Apparently right now i can only afford C5 ultra or t2 ultra....coz i get discounts for the last stocks remaining.....among the two suggest one ...and give the reason too....? My only worry with c5 ultra is battery and my worry with t2 ultra is the camera quality in low light ?

  • I am using this phone from 45 day and this phone super amazing very very nice

  • Is xperia xa ultra have new headphone with box ???

  • Excellent phone! Comfortable screen superb camera good battery life. I use it a lot ... maybe too much for some and the comfortable screen makes a world of difference when you have to stare at it all day because of work (system analyst and constantly emailing with suppliers / etc. ) Battery will last day and some times I will recharge if necessary ... besides what are the external power sources for? super fast processor... I feel spoiled by it! highly recommend it!!!

  • No fingerprint sensor.

  • Xa ultra is great

  • Better in camera, ram, resolution & design in addition to that its upgradable to android 7 but no big difference in the battery, imo this device needs minimum 3600 mAh battery If you need big screen xperia go for Z5 premium its much better in everything

  • Coming from an iphone ofcourse you will find this better. and i agree big screen is better than small screens.....But it in todays world recharging a phone is not an option. Its funny.....most phones around 10000 indian rs come with 3000 mh plus batteries that after extensive use still last 1.5 days....that too power use ! heavy.......! thats the world today......since i come from such phones and not iphone i am scared to buy this one.......i mean,..... to see battery percentage drop after playing a game for 10 minutes will be heartbreaking for me.......

  • how is it better than c5 ultra....what about battery ?

  • Since you have used t2 ultra and c5 ultra...i wanna ask you ........ what i need is: Good camera Good battery thats it........if had to pick one among the two which willl you ?

  • Dude... sometime one in a hundred.. you might defective part.... Don't worry.. you have still warranty.. you can go and reclaim

  • this phone is just soo amazing totaly enjoying my firsyt android experience

  • are you sure it's not just some dirt on the camera glass?

  • Update the god damn phone and dont act like stupid

  • Totally damaged phone from Sony.. Low battery life, volume problems, mobile touch sensor not working properly. About a month before I purchased Sony xa ultra now i think this phone is totally waste of money... So suggest all my friends not to purchase this model...

  • How can i fix my my sony xa ultra frontcam? It became blurred? I dont know what happen.

  • Agreed..... Xperia xa ultra rocks..

  • I just bought the tray for the Sim cards for Mt Xperia xa ultra and it only goes in half way. Is it a single or double tray holder that I need

  • XA ultra or p9 lite ?

  • Hi Friends, Just 2 weeks before only I bought Sony Xperia XA Ultra. This is my first Android phone. Only sony now they give with 2 yrs warranty. Previously I was using Apple Iphone-4 for the past 6 yrs. First I though to Buy i7 plus, but due to price and there is nothing new when compare i6. Then my wife suggested to buy Andoid, So I decided to buy Android. While searching some thing new compatibility to Iphone IOS speed, stylish and latest configuration... I picked this Sony Xperia XA Ultra. I like this phone, B'coz the touch feel sensitivity is good, internal app speed, music, camera, videos, user friendly keyboard.... is awesome. You cannot compare with ZTE, OPPO, ZEN, Huwaei, Xioami, leanovo kind of chinese brands... I checked after complete usage of using Asault8 Game, watching youtube, facebook, whats app, Music, online banking, surfing.... you battery comes for one complete day. I started using continuously to test battery power from morning 8.00 AM to night 7.30 PM. Guys, if you start using continuously internet, videos and gaming... obviously your battery power will get reduce. So, it depends up on the usage and the person how he uses the phone... So, don't complain about battery is not good enoguh.. blah blah... I guarantee that you will love this phone for 1st in form of 6" inches phone, HD quality, HD gaming, 3d sound loudspeaker to listen Music, you can control any electronics through sony mobile app, app speed is awesome... Since 3GB RAM, Octocore. Also scratchless screen display... One and only disappoint the battery comes for a day... you need to keep charging... this is only apt for heavy duty users.. if your normal user, then battery power will rely more than a day. So, its really good to go for Sony XA ultra who loves 6" display and Midrange cost below 27000 INR. Posted by Kikicahaka (Indian)

  • Any smartphone is adjusted to stop charging at 100%, so no need to worry, BUT!! Don't leave your phone fully charged or above 90% for a long time as much as you can to extend battery health, good luck.

  • software update from sony service centre.

  • Does sony xa ultra get over charged?... I regularly forget checking my phone when i charge... Almost leaving it for 4 to 6hrs of charging..

  • What is the latest software update? Is Nougat out yet?

  • I just bought this phn before last 9 days and got some issues like overheating while I am using Cam the back panel overheating, please telme what to do...

  • is it worth it to buy XA Ultra ?? i need big phablet...

  • Nice phone but screen too small . 6.5 inches minimum . Memory too less . 64gb or at least 32gb minimum should be there . I want 100 percent screen to body ratio . Even if there is no earpiece it's ok . ALL screen from edge to edge.

  • Why my Sony Xperia XA Ultra doesn't have " Screen / Video Recorder" menu beside the "ScreenShoot" menu (when we press the shutdown button) just like my old Xperia C5 ??? It is same with the other Xperia XA ultra ...? Please give me some answer ... for make sure ... :) ... Thanks anyway .

  • My Xperia XA Ultra ... keep asking for ... Xperia (TM) system update Version 36.0.B.1.111 its better "ignore/disable" it ... or continue "Download" & install it ? Please can anybody help me ... it's save or will be making some same "big problem" just like my old Xperia C5 wich is already sale it to other person !!! Thank you.

  • This mobile is not supported virtual reality

  • Very good mobile, price tag is normal, nice design, nice charging speed, 3GBram, awesome display, beautiful.

  • try installing battery repair life made by: "another studio app". it will fix it promise

  • Hahaha! True I had one b4 and need to replace for it bloated and still u need to be so careful with it in charging like taking care of a child

  • is it a 4g mobile

  • Its a awesome phone, Music, Camera, battery charging superb. i loved it. Sony lovers go for it. selfie lovers its best for u.

  • It is awesome phone if unless finger scanner.

  • My C5 Ultra battery lasts for 1 to 1.5 days. What about XA ULTRA??

  • Only the shamesung s7 series over heats.

  • Incredible phone, there is no way back to an smaller screen. That is where all phones are going so why wait for future generations of other phones, just skip them with the XA Ultra. I love it. My wife purchased an Iphone 7 plus at the same time (I paid 1 third what she paid), Today she installed Google Maps... that says it all. Selfie camera is great, although even with less Megapix, the Iphone 7 selfie camera does just as good results. Battery last for a day, but its advised to recharge during the day (vs all night charging from 0 to 100%). Processor speed is lighting fast for day to day use, I only play Clash of clans, I wouldn't know about other games. Design is flawless, whenever I had other phones I kept imagining them without borders around the screen, finally, this one does not have them on the sides at least. My Highest recommendations to this one.

  • Yes we are experiencing it. :-(
