Sony Xperia X Performance Review

Score: 72.3 / 100

Sony Xperia X Performance is an extremely powerful cellphone launched back in 2016, equipped with a high-tech 2150 MHz Quad-Core processor, a pretty large 5" screen, and 2 cameras, a 23 mega-pixels back camera and a 13 megapixels front-facing camera.

Sony decided to equip this cellphone with a Qualcomm Snapdragon 820 MSM8996 chip, holding an extremely powerful Quad-Core processing unit ticking at 2150 megahertz and a huge 3 GB RAM memory. An excellent aspect of this phone is its 32 GB big internal memory and a slot for SD memory cards, which allows you to store hundreds of applications without thinking about running out of space.

Sony only offers this phone in 16 777 216 color. This phone is a bit heavy comparing with today standards, weighting 5.82 ounces. The Sony Xperia X Performance is just 0.34" thick, taking it to the thinnest phone's category. This device is a compact phone, taking into account that it packs a 5 inches screen and it's just 5.67 inches long. Talking about its body design materials, this cellphone is mainly manufactured with Metal .

This phone has two cameras, a 23 megapixels back side camera and a 13 megapixels front-facing camera. Its back side camera has a f/2 aperture so it can shoot excellent photos even in low light environments. This phone also features time lapse video and auto-focus.

This cellphone has an amazing 5 inches display with a 1080 x 1920 (Full HD) resolution, which makes it impossible to even distinguish the pixels composing the display.

The Sony Xperia X Performance comes with a big 2700 mAh Li - Ion non-removable battery that can keep this phone running for many hours and even reach the end of the day without charging it. An issue to consider is that this cellphone's battery isn't replaceable so you can't buy a new battery when it begins to lose its charge, although with its 2700 mAh you will probably replace this device before that happens.

This phone counts with wi-fi capability (and it can be shared with other devices acting as a mobile hotspot), 4G LTE-A high bandwidth connectivity and also HSPA+ data connection (a slower 4G variation) and the fastest 3G data connection, over HSDPA and HSUPA technologies. The Sony Xperia X Performance has two Nano SIM cards so it can to use two different phone numbers and even different carriers in the same cellphone.

This device also comes with a great numbre of cool features as Fingerprint unlock, NFC (Near Field Communication), Bluetooth (enables communication with other bluetooth devices, computers, and accessories) and GPS Geolocation, and multiple sensors like Light Sensor, Proximity Sensor, Accelerometer, Gyroscope, Barometer and Compass.
