Sony Xperia XA2 Ultra Specifications, Features and Price
Today is what I will tag Xperia day as Sony officially unveils three new phones at the CES 2018 in Las Vegas. Two sizes of mid-ranger phones, the Xperia XA2 and Xperia XA2 Ultra, and the entry-level Xperia L2 that comes in a new design language and an emphasis on endurance.
The Sony XA2 Ultra is powered by a Snapdragon 630 chipset which is supported with 4 GB and 32/64 GB internal storage. The XA2 Ultra comes with a 3,580mAh (up from 2,700mAh), with QuickCharge 3.0 support.
The Xperia XA2 boasts of 3GB RAM and 32GB of storage, which is expandable via microSD (hybrid slot on the dual SIM XA2). As far as camera is concerned, the Xperia XA2 and the Xperia XA2 Ultra have the 23MP, f/2.0 primary camera from the last generation. It’s the former flagship-grade unit replaced at Sony’s top-tier with the current 19MP shooter. On the front both smartphones have an 8MP ultra-wide fixed-focus camera to get all your friends in the frame. Enough selfie prowess for the Ultra, though – it also has a 16MP shooter with less extreme FOV, 16:9 aspect, autofocus, and OIS.
The Sony Xperia XA2 runs on Android 8.0 Oreo out of box, and comes with Sony’s negligible customizations on top.
Sony Xperia XA2 and Xperia XA2 Ultra will start shipping from February 2018 with pricing to be confirmed later on.
