In the camera department, it has a 13MP Exmor RS sensor with Hybrid Auto Focus and an 8MP selfie camera with 88-degree wide-angle lens.  It is backed by a 2,300mAh battery which the company claims to give two days of battery life. The Xperia XA measures 143.6 x 66.8 x 7.99 mm and weighs 137.4 grams.Apart from the volume rocker and power button, there is also a shutter button on the right edge of the device.

Sony Xperia X

The Xperia X is the flagship device for the company in India. It sports dual front facing speakers and the power button on the right edge comes integrated with fingerprint sensor. The device is powered by the 64-bit Snapdragon 650 hexa-core processor.
