Hi. I just bought this phone week ago. I know it's kinda old phone but I bought it brand new and unlocked. Do you think I can use a new sim card on this phone? I don't understand what the customer service of straight talk told me. I think it's something about my sim card is 5g and the xa1 ultra is just LTE? Help. 😩

I have been using Sony Xperia XA1 Ultra Dual (Black, 64GB) for past 4 years prior to that have used the Sony Xperia XA Ultra Dual (Grey, 16GB) for past 5 years and both are still going strong as of March 2021 while I review. Sony mobiles are built like tanks and will never let you down. The quality and durability is just too good. I was looking for a good non chinese phone and since Sony phones are no longer available I had to settle for Samsung Galaxy F62 but there are lot of questions on the durability of the product. It does not look sturdy. I take a great care of all my devices and yet there are scratches on the new phone used just for 3 days as of today. Not very convincing. Also I checked the specs using Dev Check and Device Info apps and the specs do not match. Bad Experience with Samsung I must say.

Bought this fone in 2017, wished I hadn’t !! Within the first week I realised the camera was really poor, fotos turned out with blurred edges on the left of the foto, oversaturated colors, and lots of noise. I read the reviews and they were wrong, I used to take photos with my old Nokia and compare sided by side with fotos taken with Sony, sure if you blew them up you could tell Nokia had fewer pixels but overall the Nokia took better more natural/ balanced ones, say what you like about Nokia but the Carl Zeiss lens counts for a lot !
The Sony battery ? It was never up to the job and now takes 6.5hrs to charge from empty,
Sony lashed a few mismatched parts together on this fone and sold it as a big phone but it fails to deliver, now you can buy them for $60 off e-bay, yeah it sucks every way !

Great phone, everything works as it should, ultra reliable. Never updated OS because it would loose contact with Smartwatch 3. Highly recommended.

I had xa1 ultra since 2017, but it only started acting up a few weeks ago and now all i can see are vertical lines, can't read anything out of it, I tried the xperia companion on computer to try and repair the software but after following all the instructions my computer wont recognize the device. I'm really just hoping that the problem is in the software and not in the hardware.

Does anyone know if xa1 ultra have DRM keys? In my service test menu it says fido keys not provisioned. If someone is running android oreo on xa1 ultra can you please check the status of fido keys?

Both led flash lights are not working on my phone, does anyone have the same problem? I think it's also a software problem. BTW, is better for gaming than my LG V20

I've been using my Sony Xperia XA1 Ultra for about 3 years now. It's a decent phone, love the screen size! but I have been noticing some issues with the phone acting up, not responding like it used to, battery not holding it's charge like it used to.
currently looking into getting a new phone, just not sure if I want to stick with Sony or move on to something else?
Also, I'm glad to see that I am not the only one with this phone! lol

This phone is powerful for heavy internet users like sport betting, social media and the rest. But not for gaming. Mine overheated and melted the back cover while i was playing dream league soccer for a long time, and the battery got damaged. Now that i was lucky to find the replacement. I deleted all the games on the phone.
