Sony XA1 Ultra Problems galore

scoobylyn — Wed, 07 Feb 2018 17:34:44 GMT

I have the XA1 that is approx 6 months old.

1. From day 1 I have had signal problems despite being near the mast. I rarely get more than one bar. Provider sent out a booster box which has made no difference.

2. Phone regularly drops calls on a daily basis.

3. Phone often turns itself into flight mode during calls

4. Regularly hangs and then reboots

5. Camera is laggy and blurs

6. Often will not connect to any wiFi network in the house and often then doesn't connect to the mobile network or if it does it is unreliable.

I have done a factory reset which hasn't solved any of the problems. I have done all the software updates which haven't cured any problems.

I am thinking this is a bad handset. Any thoughts please?

I had the Z5 premium before and that was the best phone I have ever had hence going for another Sony. Big mistake it is looking like.

1, 2 & 3 because of BAD cell signal, buy new sim card from other ISP (AT&T better signal than Tmobile for me)

4)because of bad apps installed (check for restarts is safe mode)

5)camera is bad-confirmed

6)someone has a issue with connection BT +WIFI together. If only wifi in use and cant connect---change to wpa2-psk at router settings.

do not compare Z5 premium to middle level phone. completely different phones

What would you say is the new eqequivale to the Z5. When I upgraded I was told this was the new repreplacem to the Z5.
