O.G, 04 Apr 2017Hey Random Girl, Just charge your device around 5%-10% a... moreIt can survive 24h without any problem, and I don't use stamina (yet), but I've noticed it's already better. Do you have a curved tempered glass or regular one? I've found on the Internet that there are curved ones because of its design but they aren't available in Bosnia, so I wonder should I just get just a regular one, it's better than non. Just want to protect it as much as possible.

    Queen, 06 Apr 2017hello i just bought my sony xperia xa 2 days ago, so far i ... moreHey Queen,

    I am very happy to see that I have manage to give you a more positive approach of the Xperia XA. (the 8 april will be my 3rd month with this device since I lost my Zenfone3)

    I am very very satisfied with the device.Never had any issues with the system or battery life(I have a daily schedule and a life also...which I am trying to say that most people who complain about the battery life is people who would do nothing of theirs days or being at school and just browsing the web)

    The only big issue I have is the Screen Overlay Detected ...I have to reset some permission on my device before it allows access to some app...(album, photo, music, messenger, snapchat etc.(if someone can help me it would be appreciated.)

    But whatever,

    The device is sleek and sexy, runs really smoothly if you do not over use it or add a lot of unless apps.

    Everytime I look at my device, I fall in love with it.

    I manage to get a famous French dj to sign the back of my device so since that day, I sold my flip case and purchased a silicon case so we can the back of the device including the signature.

    All of my apps runs smoothly and Its help me with my daily socials needs.

    It is forsure, that when I will be eligible for an upgrade, I will go toward a xperia.

    Take care of your device and enjoy the product !!!!!!!!

      My XA regularly last 2 days and sometimes 3 if I really push it on a charge with light use. Couple of calls a days, some mail, whattsup and car Bluetooth handsfree for extended times in car. No games, minimum surfing. I do keep mobile data off and only use as required. WiFi on when available. Best phone battery life ever for me. Interesting to see such wildly different results as far as battery life is concerned.

                After 5 months of usage and updates, The Battery life have improved. No battery draining at all. Credits goes to sony for listening to its users.

                Phone is very Robust. I have dropped mine like 3 times and only had bumps on the corners.

                Overall its a fine phone, fast and good for its price.

                  To everyone who has a fast battery drain..
                  You all should upgrade the SONY On the Air OTA updates
                  Especially; the latest update with over 9900MB is excellent to battery life span and also improve camera
                  Now my XA has good battery life and standby time and best camera performances

                    There is some tips for mass bettery drain
                    1-adjust screen light
                    Setting>Display>smart backlight control : off
                    Image enhancement:off
                    2-close location
                    Setting>location>off(disable location)
                    3-close sync
                    Setting>account & sync and disable auto sync data
                    4-close vibrate
                    Setting>sound&notifaction and disable also vibrate for calls
                    Other sounds and diisable sounds
                    Notifaction and disable notifaction light
                    5-remove all widgage on screen
                    Much widgage would also drain your
                    battery
                    6-wifi
                    Setting>wifi and select off
                    For more detail watch this video :

                      sg94, 05 Apr 2017Plz suggest me,Which one should I go for? Xperia XA or J7 prime?Hi sg
                      Galaxy j7 prime has Fingerprint with the better battery performance.
                      Xperia xa has better camera(specialy front camera) and PIXEL DENSITY.
                      don't forget xa is cheaper than j7 prime.
                      I had bad exprience with galaxy phones.they are good on the paper but when you test them in your hands and see their performance with your own eyes you will regert for buying them.
                      You can spend more money and buy xperia xa ultra.xa ultra is more better than j7 prime.

                            Just charge your device around 5%-10% and try to not use the device while its charging( it can affect the battery life)

                            Every month since January I got it, once a month I charge the device to 100% then use it during the day and at the end of the day I discharge the device until it hits 0%, the device shuts down and then I just plug it in WITHOUT powering it up until it reaches 100%.

                            This will help the battery life to extend it.

                            Take care of the device and make sure to clean your device regularly :)

I had to do an update two more times and now it's fine. How should I treat the battery so it could last longer? I don't want to use stamina right a way, just to see its performance. How often should I charge it (when it gets to 0%, or? ). Everybody say different things

                                It is normal, because we have to update the software as soon as we open up the device for the first time( I went through it also!)

                                No worries, mightbe 2-3-4 updates related with the xperia software or security :D

                                Have a great week and take care of the device !! I still love my device

                                  I just got this phone. After a few days I'll write a review. I only have to ask something about software update. (O.G. Could know the answer) so, it popped out "software update", I clicked yeas, then it restarted and when everything was done (it said you have the latest one), it showed me again do the system update?? Is that normal or do I have to keep updating it till I get the latest one? (there were 3 updates since last July, I think)., so anyone knows what is it (I don't know a lot about these things, I'll be very grateful if someone replies)

                                    Don't believe everybody, but my main concern is the battery life, but its average. And you can get a flip case in any store that sells phone cases :D

                                    I have left many comments about the device, you can read them :D

                                    Have a great week

                                      I Had an galaxy j5 2016 too before my current xa, one of the worst phone i ever had.Now got a xperia xa though, best value for money phone I ever had tbh
                                      wish I had a cool phone like z5p or xz but financial situation....

                                        I have had this phone about 2 to 3 weeks. Whilst I am not too happy either about the battery life, it's a reasonable handset for the money.
                                        Pros - cheap(ish). Does everything expected from a smartphone
                                        Cons - poor battery life, even under Stamina mode. I can make it last 2 days, but the same usage on my other phones would get me 4 days on a single charge.
                                        The camera is not too great with the flash in dark conditions. When outdoors or in decent daylight, the camera is fine. But forget the flash - the pics come out utterly crap.
