I have had this phone for almost a year (I got it second hand) and I have had no real problems. My battery hasn't died like so many people have reported. It has never been ridiculously slow and I have had no issues with it not being compatible with any apps or anything.

    I have this phone for about a year and a few months now until I had to get the charging port repaired since it won't charge. One month later it's broken again. Do not buy this phone.

      I wouldn't buy this phone ever again and I also moved from Sony after this one and had been with Sony for nearly ten years before this. After only 6 months, it blacked out & wasn't worth it to repair so bought a new phone. Highly disappointing!

Can be adapted to its ram and to be fast. For those who know/care about that it's a great device. Your Nokia is lower in camera department than XA - at least.

            I have been using it for one year and a half until its screen went out, it turned black and couldn't find a solution to get access to my data. Also, one of my friends unrecommended it because he experienced the same issue which makes me assume that this issue is recurrent so I left my beloved brand, Sony, forever. Now I switched to Nokia 3.1, its more than good.
            My final honest decision is to NO recommend Sony Xperia XA (at least).

              I like the fact that it can be configured to suit how I want to use my phone.
              I like the fact that on Sony phones the 3 face buttons are contained within the screen and not on the black band at the bottom that you might want to hold it with (or use to pass it to someone else).
              BUT within a year it stopped working. When I submitted it for repair, then said it would cost more than the phone was worth, and they wouldn't replace it because it was damaged. What I was shown the damage, it was a hairline crack that was there when I got the (brand new) phone, beside the on/off button, which I had thought was there just so you could see from the front where the button was on the side. So I was left with no phone! Not impressed. In use I found it fast and easy to use, but beware - when getting any new phone, check it over very thoroughly to make sure it's in perfect nick before you take it away, otherwise it becomes your fault if it's damaged.

                  I bought this phone last year. In the beginning, it was awesome, but after a few months it became terrible and it did not function well. I recommend anyone who wants to buy this phone not to buy and instead of buying it, he/she can buy a huwaii's phone.

                      Sony is the best mobile

                        This is a good phone but you should know that there are certain loopholes to come across to get the best out of it. Nougat version makes all the Hazzard out of it and make it smooth and easy. Although android 6.0 makes the phone somewhat dumb in few aspects but 7.0 makes it all easy. Frankly it's always good to go for Sony if you know how to tackle it's cons.

                          I had XA since 2 years up till now, SONY released many software updates .. It's working like a charm due to its category as midrange phone of course

                            I've had this phone for one year and 3 m onths and the battery has died completely - and it is non-replaceable! Warranty expired, Minimum daily use of the phone. I would NOT buy again!

                              I'm using this mobile since a year and I liked a lot.. Both cameras are pretty good for the price. This mobile is simple but with a good look even while the material is not premium. I'am an average and sometimes heavy user and yeah, sometimes I need to charge it at midday or at lunch but I'm quite surprised about Sony's battery performance - just 2300 mah and using stamina mode (always on) last more than expected.

                              I'm pleased with this phone. I was hesitating to buy it or not but after a year I know it was a good choice. Buy it if you want it to social medias and average usage for you daily life. Not recommeded at all if you are gamer lover. You will need more space and better specifications.

                                I have bought new XA its good now.... Its Showing 7.0 update... Can I upgrade it.... What about battery backup in 7.0

                                  Everything is fine, but because it's midrange phone, so I have to adapt its low spec from high spec my Xperia Z3 Compact..

                                  Or maybe this nougat version make its phone a little bit laggy than marshmallow version??

                                        To all who are wondering about this phone here is my personal comprehensive opinion:

                                        It's a great phone, great features for the price - marvelous screen, two great cameras, great build quality, great performance.

                                        I have had issues too and had to visit service. These included a broken screen+unresponsive touch (my fault, the phone bent in my pocket during a concert), broken headphone jack (I see other people with this issue but in my case the jack actually wasn't broken it was stuffed with dust. The repair center just cleaned it and it worked) and there was apparently some sort of motherboard issue which caused it to freeze and boot loop randomly. Apparently the motherboard was faulty and had to be replaced. Luckily, the repair center changed the motherboard, screen and battery (I had no issues, but they still did so, no idea why, probably to extend the phone's life a bit more) and it was all covered by warranty, I didn't pay a single penny more and got a phone that is 90% brand new.

                                        TL;DR Great phone, it may break but all phones do that. No serious issues whatsoever, great value for its price. Although today you are better getting it's grandson, the XA2 which is a similar package but much more modern and with even better value
