Another major bad thing about the Xperia XA1 Plus is the screen. Even on full brightness outside in the sun you can't see anything. Not only the screen in general but if you are taking pictures or videos it is rubbish because you can't see what you are taking pictures or videos about.
The battery isn't good either it will only last a few hours if you play games and watch videos on it.

The Sony Xperia Xa1 Plus is the worst phone you could buy for a mid-range phone. The only thing good about it, is the nice square design otherwise it is rubbish in all aspects. Even with 4gb of RAM the phone is slow. It lags, sluggish and even crawls.
One of the worse features of this phone is the camera. It is very slow to save the images onto the phones internal storage. Before you can take another photo you have to wait a long time. The buttons are all the in the wrong place on the right side. The camera button, power button, sound button. If you even just hold the phone it automatically opens up several apps like the camera or other apps even if you dont open them. The side is very sensitive on the buttons side. The phone signals are always weak.
In general, apart from using the phone for making calls, you can't really use it for apps as the phone gets very slow and drags.
I regret spending £330 on the phone. Absolutely rubbish. I will never buy a Sony phone ever again. They might have some new high-end models but that is all hype, marketing and advertising to steal your money for some crap.
I beg of you, please do not waste your hard earned precious money to buy Sony's crap. They are better suited to making what they were once good at in the ancient times - tv's, VCR's and radios.

Sadly I thought it was going to be a better team than the one I had (p8 Huawei) but it is not, I have to stay with this team until it comes out worthwhile, I do not know whether to get a Sony, I'm doubting it, it's very slow in everything, load, take photos, to open contacts, etc ... Bad decision

Farid, 29 Mar 2018Worst mobile which I used upto now. Battery charging takes ... moreLast year I bought the Xperia XA1 Plus as an upgrade from the Xperia C3. But the phone was really slow, the processor was made for budget phones but it's a mid range model. Navigating the home screen was a horrible experience, it was slow, laggy, and unresponsive. Whenever I connected to my bluetooth headsets, sometimes audio will not play through the headset, so I had to restart the phone everytime used my headset. Also, occasionally the phone will hang for a minute or 2 then showing that ”system” UI has stopped working”. On more serious occasions, it will go black and reboot after 5 or more minutes. I don't know if it's only my unit but the phone is quite heavy and pop sockets won't work with it the adhesive isn't strong enough. All together it sucks, don't buy it.

I have purchased an Xperia XA1 Plus two weeks ago. This phone is utter rubish, and Sony won't take it back.
What they didn't tell you in the highlights is that they have totally cheapened out on the reception module of this phone. I NEVER get reception better than 3G if I am further than 50m away from a tower. Let alone while you are commuting....
My Xperia Z3 Compact, that I had to replace because of a failing battery had LTE reception everywhere this thing only have 3G
It's a totally useless piece of glorified photo taker and paper weight.
Sony should pull this from the market, and refund the customers who have bought these phones.
Stay away, you have been warned.

Worst mobile which I used upto now. Battery charging takes minimum 4hrs,too much of hanging problem, camera quality poor, lot of software issue.
Too slow processing I am confused whether my mobile having 1gb ram or 4gb ram.
I am not providing fake comments if you need to prove my comments I am ready
