Sony Xperia XA Review
Score: 67.9 / 100Sony Xperia XA is an incredible device launched in 2016, having a very fast 2 gigahertz Octa-Core processor, a quite big 5" display, a 13 MP back side camera and an 8 mega-pixels front side camera. Let's take a closer view of what this phone can give us.
Sony made this phoneavailable just in a variety of color options: black, gold, green and white. This cellphone just has 5.65" long and 2.63 inches wide, but it's still able to fit a a 5" display. The Sony Xperia XA is incredibly slim and practical, with a thickness of just 0.31". This cellphone feels much lighter than what you expect from a cellphone of this size. About its body design materials, this cellphone is mostly built with Metal .
Sony equipped this cellphone with a nice 5" screen, and a resolution of 720 x 1280 (HD), which makes everything look beautiful.
Sony ships this cellphone with a high-tech 2 gigahertz Octa-Core processor, bundled in the MediaTek Helio P10 MT6755 chip with a huge 2 GB RAM memory. This device counts with a quite large 16 GB internal storage and an SD memory slot, which allows the user to install a couple hundred apps and games without any trouble.
This device is equipped with two cameras, a 13 mega-pixels back camera and an 8 megapixels front side camera. Its back camera lens has an aperture of F2 so it can take clear pictures even in low-light situations.
This cellphone has a 2300 mAh large non-removable battery that provides this cellphone an average battery life. An issue to take into consideration is that this phone's battery isn't removable so you can't change it when it starts to lose its charge, although with its 2300 mAh you will probably buy a new device before that becomes a real problem.
This phone has WiFi connectivity (which it can provide to other devices acting as a mobile hotspot), LTE (4G) great performance connection and also HSPA+ data connection, which is a slower 4G network and fast 3G connection type, supported by HSDPA and HSUPA technologies.
