It works very well, with occasional stutters (dunno if due to OS or specific application, in my case Instagram). Regarding updates, you can freely update it to latest available OTA version (7.0 base OS, Dec 5 2017 security patch here in Europe), Sony is very diligent and tests stuff before releasing it to users, hope they will deliver promised upgrade to 8.0 (Oreo).

vikram, 14 Jan 2018bad battery also connectivity Battery is better than any of Z5 family for example. It has the best 2300 battery backup adaptation for a 5" display. One day of medium usage it's there! 40.0.A.5.66 system user.

New Christmas present and trying to get to grips with it. There is probably a very simple answer to this, but what do the flashing red, green and blue lights mean?

Like it but connectivity is flaky for texting, wifi and bluetooth. Patches have improved the situtation but this phone seems like it was shipped before being well tested. Seems like the connectivity problems are related to the device trying to conserve power because times that it goes power crazy it has no connectivity issues at all. Too bad because it works well when it is working and the battery life is very good (too bad it comes at the cost of getting texts/emails promptly).

Jaja bink, 09 Jan 2018if do factory reset to xa1 can the touch screen issue solve ?Did you drop the phone before? Did you buy it secondhand/brand new with warranty? Are you a clumsy user or you let someone borrow the phone who couldve damage it but didnt tell you? If not then update it with the latest available firmware Dec. Patch, then do a Full Wipe/Reset... Else if it fails return the phone where you got it coz its defective.
