Sony Xperia XA1 Plus review

07 October 2017
So, what if one Xperia isn't big enough but the other is a tad too much? Well, you come up with something in the middle. Enter the 5.5" Xperia XA1 Plus, which is perfectly bridging the gap between the 5-inch XA1 and the 6-inch XA1 Ultra

Everything is good. I'm using Xperia since 8 years
I like Sony all products
But one thing not find Xperia screen protector
So sad 😔

    AnonD-633729, 08 Oct 2017So, sony will copy LG to use 18:9 ratio screen? Copycat sony heheHmm, so what if SAMSUNG changes from 18.5/9 to 18/9 aspect ratio, can I call them a copycat too? I guess so. Who can't copy in mobile division? If no one is copying why is everyone going bezeless after MI MIX? If no one is copying why are there USB-C smartphones?

              Sony Fanboy Bitches, 08 Oct 2017Oh, never knew that nonsense. Last time I've checked, Sony'... moreA multimedia phone with poor screen color accuracy, massive bezels with no stereo speakers? That is some achievement.

              I wonder were Sony got their ideas from for going bezel-less next year?

Last time I've checked, Sony's main purpose of producing this phone is to offer a fantastic multimedia smartphone that looks nothing like any other phones, and their main goal was to provide a high quality product that has a headphone jack, healthy battery that doesn't explode with amazing lifespan, and regular software updates to make sure that you're not left behind.

                    What makes me think is where did Samsung get the idea of waterproof smartphones and a glass back design phone.

                      Anonymous, 08 Oct 2017yes yes. sony fanboys really love to troll the other brands... moreYes yes. And most Xperia fans are not afraid to show themselves by providing a nickname for their account on GSMArena instead of keeping their nicknames as "Anonymous"

                        opt, 08 Oct 2017Sony should hire this guy. how come you are sure that Sams... moreWhy should I be hired when I can simply build my own company that will give users the best possible quality products that they want?

                        Anyways, I didn't make such claims that Samsung phones are the same way back in 2012, and I can provide several proofs to my own claims.

                        And I think I've sent enough links and proofs to show you what I'm saying. If everything is still unclear to you, then Idk what method will make it to you.
                        But what I'm doing is not trolling, rather informing.
                        It's not my issue that you are so triggered about what I've said, 'cause as far as I know, I said nothing else but just what is happening in the actual world.
                        I wouldn't say such stuff if only Samsung worked hard enough to give their users a worthy experience for the price that they're asking for their devices.
                        Have an awesome day! Peace

                                I laugh 20 times after seeing the last sentence LOL
                                ›No stereo speakers on a phone that's clearly intended for multimedia use
                                ›Fingerprint sensor not available in the US
                                ›Doesn't launch with the latest Android
                                ›Should we mention the bezels? Oops, we just did.

                                  I don't know why bezels are of so much concern or a primary factor in selecting a phone?
                                  Does thinner bezels improve efficiency of a phone? Then in that case iPhone X, Essential and Mi Mix2 have to be best performing phones.
                                  Bezels on this phone is acceptable, even in terms of aesthetics.
                                  Samsung is only fooling people by so called infinity display. It's just that peripheries of screen are curved on side edges so that one cannot see the bezels directly as it is seen on normal phones.
                                  Certain amount of bezels are required for construction of gadget body. At least with today's technology,it is required.

                                      Looks like XA1 plus is to rival galaxy A7. Sony copied the colors of A7 (black, blue, gold, pink). But, it is not a suprise because sony is a copycat company :-D
