AnonD-246723, 20 Mar 2017xperia L1 74.6% screen-to-body ratio your iphone 7? 65.6... more~74% using 5.5 inches is not that impressive, it's the equivalent of having 66-67% when using 4.7 inch screen. So year the bezels of both are biiig.

By comparison s7 edge has a BTS of 76% at 5.5 inches and certain sharp phones are nearing 80% (using 5.5 inch phones). The bigger the screen the easier to push the BTS rato high(ly).

That big display, irregardless of the resolution used, would stump on that teeny battery. Sony always hated autonomy, they're now approaching new laws. This phone may not make the day even at release day...

      Its just for people who are unable to buy a flagship or midranger. chill down guys.
      Well i wish it came with sd 430. but it will be successful.
      comeon stupid people don't care about processor and all .sony wants to sell this device well and profits. If it came with a guaranteed android 8 update it would have been perfect.

        This is one of the lowest end phone we can get currently. But surely Sony will introduce a mid range price for this. I like Sony but their pricing divert people to other brands.

                  Wow, looks very good. But

                  1. they could also have made it smaller to success the Xperia L
                  2. The specs are unpromising, so the price should be sub 100 $. But as I know Sony, it will be more expensive.

Go check the Honor 8, Honor 6x and Redmi Note 4 before coming to a conclusion that this device is ''the best of Sony'', because it obviously isn't, and there are way better budget phones than this one :)

Big display and with that screen quality I think it's great for battery life.

                              Let's wait for the pricing. The specs are not bad for "budget smartphone".

                                Is this a joke? 5.5'' display with a resolution less than FHD? And that pathetic MediaTek processor? Sony, go home. You're drunk.

                                  Price this at around $100 then you'd be good.

                                    Oh... It has more battery than the XA1 and even it can outlast the XA1 Ultra!

                                    Screw it Sony!
