Sony Xperia XA2 Plus Announced

sound10 — Tue, 17 Jul 2018 09:48:06 GMT

Hi everyone, found the following phone on the Sony UK website :- https://www.sonymobile.com/global-en/products/phones/xperia-xa2-plus/#gref

However once again, Sony are not listening to their customers and this new phone again does not have a headphone jack. When are Sony going to understand the basic concept that wired headphones sound better than wireless ones. From what I've also read on the web, Sony's lastest smartphones have sold poorly. To be honest I'm not surprised. Please Sony start listening to your customers and introduce a phone similar to the XZ Premium with smaller bezels, headphone jack with a higher voltage output, great sounding stereo speakers and finally great hardware. You are then onto a winner in my humble opinion.

Hi, thanks for your reply. It looks like a headphone jack ! Just to add that on the Sony website under specs, there is no mention of a headphone jack. If Sony have brought the headphone jack back, then they are listening to their loyal customers and I will definitely be considering buying this phone !

@slv815 as far as I can tell a headphone jack isn't mentioned in any Sony spec sheet. you can't find it on the XZ1 page, and the phone definitely has one https://www.sonymobile.com/global-en/products/phones/xperia-xz1/specifications/

It's XA2 family, they have always included the headphone jack

Hi, thanks for all your replies. My mistake. If Sony can bring back the headphone jack on all it's mobile phones, then that would be a fantastic move and I'm sure they would sell a lot more phones. Will have to see though the XA2 Ultra and the XA2 Plus side by side in a shop to see which one I like better.
