When will this arrive the Philippines? I was going to get the XA Ultra but was in distraught to find out they don’t have it in Rosegold. Lo and behold the XA 1 Ultra has rosegold! Sony’s specs are already awesome too.

I have the XA and with it is a promise of two full days for a single charge. I’m a light user and i still i cant last a single day per full charge. Imagine if it didn’t have this amazing “battery saving technology” and this “Qnovo Adaptive Charging”?

Listen Sony, i don’t want this fancy battery saving technology . Just give me a replaceable 3000mah and keep your amazing battery saving technology.

What the hell is wrong with Sony? The battery was the biggest complaint from the XA and XA Ultra and here they are again with new versions and still the same battery capacity.

I guess they made good money from the XA afterall that’s why they can do this stunt. It’s like Sony giving its customers the middle finger. They’re not listening at all to customer feedback.
