Hi @Ghost91, welcome to our forum!

Your question has been translated to English as this is an International forum, please post any replies in English.

I'm afraid that the Xperia XA1 Ultra does not have a function that you can use to record your screen, however you can take a look in the Google Play store and see if there is one of more applications that you can download that will enable you to record the screen on your device.

I hope that answers your question!

Yes, it's easy

Hold the power button for about 2 second.
Select Take screenshot on popup.

Hi @Petabytes, thanks for helping out!

That will only take a screenshot of what is shown on the display. @Ghost91 wanted to record the screen and to do that in our later models, you will need a third party application as there is no inbuilt feature to record the screen!

Yes, if you want video recording on the screen motion, that's another thing. Must search one from play store and install.

Hi @Djordjexperia, sorry for the late reply. I have been out of office due to vacation.

You are correct, this feature was able in previous models, however from the Xperia X-series and onwards, the feature is no longer supported and you will need to download a third party application from the Google Play store to record your screen.

There are plenty of options available in the Google Play store if you search "record screen" or "screen recording".

Have a nice weekend!
