Gyroscope in XA1

[Ubercool]

 Greetings, 

Please tell me, if there a hardware gyroscope inside new xa1 dual, vr apps tell me that device doesn't have one, also i can't install google cardboard app - market tells me 'device is not supported'. 

Android version 7.0

I believe you can test this by looking for 360 videos on YouTube. 

If gyro is present, you can move the phone to change viewing angle.

Angle is not changing in 360 videos neither in VR apps.

Contacted Sony offical support, there is no gyroscope in XA1.

Sony Xperia XA1 is useless for VR.

You didn't checked the sensors/features before buying the phone?

Es inaceptable que con este precio no incluya giroscopio cuando celulares de la. mitad del precio lo incluyen me has decepcionado una vez más Sony por algo vas en declive cuando hablamos de smartphones

 is unacceptable that with this price do not include gyroscope when cell phones. half of the price include you have let me down once again Sony for something you're going downhill when we talk about smartphones
