Introduction & Design
The Xperia XA Ultra Dual is the dual-SIM version of the Xperia XA Ultra. The front of the device is totally covered with glass, while the rear of the device has a frosted metal finish. The device has an edge to edge display which provides it with a sleek and modern look. The device measures 164 x 79 x 8.4mm and weighs a hefty 202 grams but the weight is distributed evenly to provide a comfortable feel. The Xperia XA Ultra Dual is available in White, Graphite Black, and Lime Gold colour options.
Display & Camera
The Sony Xperia XA Ultra Dual provides an amazing multimedia experience with its large 6-inch full-HD display with Mobile Bravia Engine 2 that is aimed to provide true to life colours. The display has an average pixel density of 367 PPI. Same as all the other Xperia X devices, the display has a scratch-resistant glass on it. The device is aimed at selfie-loving users, for which it uses a 16-megapixel sensor with autofocus and LED flash, it is also equipped with optical image stabilisation (OIS) to provide a shake-free image. The primary camera is a 21.5-megapixel shooter with phase detection autofocus and LED flash, but it does not feature OIS, which is odd as the front-facing camera has it. There is no 4K recording option either but the primary and selfie camera can record full-HD videos.
Software & performance
The smartphone runs on Android 6.0.1 Marshmallow operating system. The user interface has a clean and modern, customised look to it; it also has plenty of added features. The Sony Xperia XA Ultra Dual is powered by octa-core MediaTek MT6755 (Helio P10) chipset. The chipset houses eight Cortex-A53 cores clocked at 2.0GHz. The graphics are handled by Mali-T820MP2 GPU, which contains two graphics cores. The RAM and internal storage on this device are 3GB and 16GB respectively. The internal storage can be expanded to 256GB by inserting a microSD card.
Battery & Connectivity
The Sony Xperia XA Ultra is fuelled by a 2,700 mAh battery, which is rather low considering the screen size of the device. However, Sony claims two days of battery life. The device supports quick charge technology that provides 5 hours of usage with just 10 minutes of charge. The connectivity options that tag along with the device includes dual-SIM 4G LTE, Wi-Fi a/b/g/n/ac, Bluetooth v4.2 with the aptX codec, DLNA, NFC, GPS and a microUSB port for charging and syncing.
