i had this one 3 times, and the XA Ultra, Horribly fragile phones, i remember once i drop it litterally from 25 cm and the front crystal completly shattered, then the second one lost signal on the Nougat update and i had to downgrade to restore the signal, the XA Ultra had camera problems at the 3rd month of new, went to waranty and at the 9ht month failed again, and tbh the cameras were awful compared to iphone or samsung (even when they had Sony cameras inside)

I used my SONY Xperia XA as my 'daily-driver' from December 2016 to October 2018. Throughout the 26 months of ownership, I must say that I was considerably happy with my handset. Even though I was happy with my handset, I shall say that I had a few issues with it. From the very beginning, when I started using my phone, I instantly noticed that it wasn't a very fast phone. Whenever I even performed the simplest of tasks, the device would occasionally freeze or close the application (crash). If the device were to perform any complex tasks, the CPU was guaranteed to thermal throttle. I must say that I am an admirer of the skin which SONY applied to the version of Android that was installed onto my device. I was also impressed with the camera quality of the SONY Xperia XA, but I know that SONY likes to equip their phones with great camera technology. I was unimpressed with the display quality, but it was acceptable at the time when considering the price I paid. I do not own the phone anymore, but I am looking at purchasing one again to add to my collection. As of October 2018, I upgraded to an iPhone SE (1st-generation), but I will save that for another story...

I had a Redmi Note 9 which was 128 gigabyte storage and 4 gigabyte ram and it lagged a lot. Before that phone i had a Xperia XZ1 and it was amazing. The XA is a low end phone and that is why it is not good.

Very bad phone. Display is very weak. If a small pressure is applied to display it becomes damaged. I have replaced the display 4 times. When 5th time display becomes damaged I kicked the phone and moved to Xiaomi. In my life I will never buy Sony phone again. Now Sony is like "But bad product with high cost".

Ive had my sony xperia xa since 2018 the first one i got in december 2016 the headphone jack stopped working but i got the phone replaced under warrenty its not the best phone it does work really well 80 percent of the time for such an old phone the camera is good enough for social media if you know how to use it properly the battery will still last about a day if you use it for phone calls games and other apps. Though only having 16gb storage is not good at all but having a micro sd card inside does give you a little more storage display is reasonably good for watching if you turn wifi and data off brightness down all the way and flight mode on you can watch a movie or 2 and only get down to 70% battery life. over all this is a decent phone but not really worth it in 2022 i will say being a sony device it does out perform other brands.

My biggest pet peeve about this phone was the sound. It has the weakest crappiest sound of any device I ever used. Only a dog can hear the speakers on this.

I have it for 3 years now. I am a SONY phone user ever.This phone is really okay except for a few things i have to mention below.
It does not accept fast charge as its technology is on Android 7!in any attempt, the battery will over heat tremendously
On thing i really dislike about this phone & shocked me is that of all Nokia phones i have bought over 13 years now (most previous one being Z3 compact but got stolen) & being a music enthusiast, the voice recorder under any app installed to record voice is very poor on this phone.
For new buyers, looking for good sound output on speaker even on earphone/headphone...even at full volume on radio...this is a great disappointment i guarantee you. The sound output is very low....i guess being a low buget SONY Xperia phone could be reason they compromised on sound & also camera is not as razor sharp!

I've had this phone for around 4 years now and still working perfectly.
Never had any issues with it, nice smooth performance.
As others have mentioned the battery life isn't the greatest but it's not that bad either, I usually manage to go 4-5 days before it drops to around 25% from a full charge.

Had this phone for 3 years now. Battery won't last 12 hours even on Stamina Mode. Ear phone port/jack stopped working after a month(not exaggerating). Got to use it once before malfunctioning. Camera is quite poor. Apps aren't even supported by Sony or Android anymore. Might take you a handful of times to swipe just to unlock the phone. I don't use my phone for media storage, I don't take many pictures or videos, and I don't put music on it yet the memory storage was full after a couple of months. It's the first and last Sony phone. Reading through the people praising this phone was stomach-churning. Sony's shills are very active on the web.

Utter crap phone born with Ghost-touch that neither Sony nor reseller would acknowledge despite sending video-recording of it. Sony used to be quality. Looking for other brands now.

I hated this phone. I was happy that it got defect after one year. ;-) So my parents bought a new one for me.
I had it from 2016 to 2017.
The sound was very poor, this was the main reason, why I hated this phone. It didn't look good optically, but this would'nt have been a big problem to me, if the sound had been great.
The highs were very bad and the dynamic normalizer didn't work that well as it did on older sony phones. Louder songs still were much louder (I had dynamic normalizer on) than quiet songs, it should have been nearly the same noice level.
After one year the on/off button got stuck inside the phone. I couldn't turn the screen on or off anymore. - And because I didn't like the phone either, we looked for a new one.
