Sony Launches New Selfie Smartphones: Xperia XA2 Ultra and Xperia XA2 | Pre-order Starts Jan 20th – 31st

Sony Mobile unveiled Xperia XA2 and Xperia XA2 Ultra – the latest additions to its popular super mid-range line, with Sony camera technology, elegant designs and powerful performance. Xperia XA2 features a Sony 23MP Exmor RS^TM for mobile rear camera and 8MP 120° super wide-angle Exmor R™ selfie camera, in a sleek and borderless design. While Xperia XA2 Ultra is the “dual selfie” smartphone, featuring 16MP with Optical Image Stabilisation and 8MP 120° super wide-angle front cameras. Xperia L2 also announced, with a 5.5” HD display, high-capacity battery and 8MP 120° super wide-angle selfie camera.

Xperia XA2 Ultra is the ultimate “dual selfie” camera smartphone

Engineered specifically for selfies, Xperia XA2 Ultra features 16MP with Optical Image Stabilisation and 8MP 120° super wide-angle dual front cameras, both with front flash, producing clear shots regardless of lighting or environment and for fitting more friends and surroundings into selfies.

With the same 23MP rear camera module as Xperia XA2, the large 1/2.3” Exmor RS^TM for mobile sensor is capable of ISO 12800 sensitivity for better low-light photography – and the 4K movie recording and 120fps slow motion video capture features allow you to preserve memories and magnify moments.

It features Sony’s most vibrant 6” Full HD smartphone display yet, with a wide and accurate colour gamut – built with strong and durable Corning^® Gorilla^® Glass.  It sits within a borderless design; hardware so immersive, the screen becomes indistinguishable from the experience.

Just as with Xperia XA2, unlocking is made easy with the one-touch rear fingerprint sensor. The “loop surface” design is also composed of anodized aluminium on the sides, with the same recognisable diamond-cut finish on the top and bottom.

The super-capacity 3,580 mAh battery means you can use the device for longer, and intuitive Sony smart charging technologies regulate and analyse power consumption and charging cycles, so it lasts and stays healthy over time – and the Qualcomm^® Snapdragon^TM 630 Mobile Platform ensures performance is seamless and multitasking is made easy. Quick charging is also supported for hours of power in just minutes of charging (requires Quick Charger UCH12W).

Xperia XA2 Ultra will be available in Dual SIM in four contemporary colours: Silver, Black, Blue and Gold.

Xperia XA2 – capture life’s beauty with sophisticated Sony camera technology in a sleek, borderless design

Xperia XA2’s powerful 23MP rear camera packs Sony’s large 1/2.3” Exmor RS^TM for mobile image sensor, with ISO 12800 sensitivity for clear low-light photography.

It features 4K movie recording, allowing you to create with colour and clarity – 120fps slow motion video capture is also included for dramatizing action and movement. There’s a 120° super wide-angle 8MP camera up front, so you can fit more of your friends and surroundings into selfies.

The 5.2” Full HD display is brighter, sharper and more colourful – it sits within a beautiful borderless design, taking the screen right to the edge. And it’s built to last with strong and durable Corning^® Gorilla^® Glass.

Unlocking is made easy with the one-touch rear fingerprint sensor – integrated into the smooth metallic back panel. Xperia XA2 is composed of anodized aluminium on the sides, with a diamond-cut finish on the top and bottom, accentuating the industrial beauty of metal. It represents an evolution of the recognisable Xperia “loop surface” form, with smooth screen curvature and a symmetrical layout for a sleek look and comfortable feel.

The high-capacity 3,300 mAh battery and the Qualcomm^® Snapdragon^TM 630 Mobile Platform, means you can do more of what you love for longer with smooth and speedy performance. And, Sony smart charging technologies; Smart Stamina extend usage during the day, with Battery Care and Qnovo Adaptive Charging ensuring the battery stays healthy over time. Quick charging is also supported to give you hours of power with just minutes of charging (requires Quick Charger UCH12W).

Xperia XA2 will be available in Dual SIM in two fresh colours: Black and Blue.

Xperia L2 brings a large display, long-lasting battery and advanced selfie camera

The 120^° super wide-angle 8MP front camera is built for selfies, with its 13MP F2.0 rear camera ensuring clear and crisp mobile photography.

Xperia L2 will launch in Dual SIM, in three colours: Black, Gold and Pink – each rendered with reflective surfaces, emphasizing the “loop surface” design, and unlocking is made easy with a single touch via the rear fingerprint sensor.
