The Xperia XA2 sits in a slightly odd place. It offers solid specs and performance for the price, but the 16:9 screen and chunky body are already out of step with the competition, and the camera just can't keep up at all.If 4K or slow-motion videos are mu...

The improved screen resolution, larger battery, latest software and addition of a fingerprint scanner means the XA2 is well equipped. If it inherits the price tag of its predecessor, it will be a handset to keep an eye on...

stable, fashionable case, Full HD resolution, bright IPS display, precise GPS module, good 23-MP camera, USB-C connection, fast during everyday use, no throttling, long battery life, Quick-charge funktion
hybrid Dual-SIM only, a lot of bloatware, not waterproof, USB-2.0 speed only, mediocre selfie camera
Awesome battery life, Snappy performance, Great image quality in good light, Fingerprint scanners, finally
Somewhat plasticky build, Design doesn't feel particularly modern, Displays could use more accurate colors, No waterproofing
So, what's the verdict – yay or nay? Well, let's take a step back and first examine Sony's pricing: in the US, the Xperia XA2 will cost you $349.99, and the Xperia XA2 Ultra will set you back $449.99. This pricing is actually reasonable as it's on par wit...
