Sony is a well-established brand when it comes to mobiles. The recent launch of the Sony Xperia XA is another Smartphone added to the Xperia series. Transition from Xperia XA to Xperia X Performance  would mean better technology and features. Now let us see what this phone has to offer.

USP is one major aspect that attracts all technology users. The biggest selling point of Xperia XA is the technology that makes it phone water resistant. This technology renders the phone waterproof and even if the phone is suspended in water for 30 minutes then also you can use it. It is almost as if you can even take this phone in the shower without damaging it.

Let us now have a look at what Xperia XA has to offer as against  Sony Xperia X Performance  if one has to compare the features:

Water resistance

The Sony Xperia XA is equipped with a waterproof screen that measures 22mm. This phone has the compliance of IP55 and 58 making it highly waterproof. When compared to the Xperia xa you will be surprised that it is not graded as high when it comes to waterproofing technology. With the Xperia X Performance  , you will be able to shoot underwater videos and capture images. However, if you attempt the same with Xperia Z then you will end up with a completely non-functional Smartphone.

Form and size

Design and form of the two phones are slightly different. The form given to Xperia X Performance  is that of glass sandwich type. The design of Xperia XA is designed differently keeping the conventional approach. It is relatively smaller in size measuring at 131 x 67.4mm as against 139 x 71mm. Thickness measured is 22mm against the Xperia Xperia X Performance  with 7.9mm. This means that the Sony Xperia ZR is thicker. However, the weight is slightly less with 140g against 146g.

Display

The display for both the phones vary slightly. The Xperia X Performance   display measures 4.55-inches as against the Xperia Xperia X Performance  with 5-inches. However, both the screens are large in display but what matters most is the resolution. Xperia X Performance  has a sharp resolution of 1920 x 1080, the ZR measures 1280 x 720. Xperia Z seems to be better between the two as it is equipped with Full HD capacity. The only drawback it seems to have is the contrast of black that is not as dark as it should be.

Capturing Pictures

The Xperia X Performance  has a front mounted VGA camera that is 0.3-megapixels. The Xperia X Performance  has a 2-megapixel front facing camera. It is understandable that the phone with higher megapixel will give you better picture and video quality.

Memory can be an issue for those who store music and media files on their mobile device. However, both the Smartphones offer you the scope of memory expansion with a MicroSD card slot.

Which one to purchase?

Any technology user would give emphasis on better content display and sharper images. Other things like better internal storage memory option is what might appeal to users who store their media on Smartphones.
