Sony's Xperia XA1 and XA1 Ultra might not be flagship devices, but their edge-to-edge displays are great. So much so that we'd love to have seen them on both the Xperia XZs and the Xperia XZ Premium. Just imagine how fabulous a 4K HDR edge-to-edge display...
Abstract: Going mid-range, which comes with more affordable price points, tends to be the route phone makers take to grind out a slice of the market, however thin it may be. Sony has had a tough time resonating with more expensive models it feels more befitting of...
Abstract: Amongst the new quartet of smartphones Sony announced at Mobile World Congress (MWC) in Barcelona, two of them are new iterations of mid-range devices from last year, the Xperia XA1 and Xperia XA1 Ultra.Sony seems to be doubling down on the strategy it we...

Vivid 6-inch display, Great front camera with OIS, Classy, elegant design, Solid battery life
No fingerprint sensor, A bit unwieldy, Lacks raw power
There is no denying it. At around Rs 29,000, (on e-commerce websites) the Xperia XA1 Ultra is a niche smartphone for a certain subset of users who want a device geared towards multimedia with great cameras. Smartphones like the Honor 8 Pro and OnePlus 3T...
