Having a lot of experience with various Android and iOS devices, Sony Xperia X features a lot of great stuff. Lightning speed fingerprint scanner which unlocks the device in an instant. Full HD display with wide viewing angles are awesome especially with the front dual speakers. Picture quality has no flaws, it's simply gorgeous. Simple and smooth design although, the position of the volume rocker and the headphone input seems a little odd and especially uncomfortable when held in hand.
However, Sony claims that this device lasts up to 2 days of normal usage. As you probably know, Sony Xperia X suffers from frequent overheating problems which seem to impact the battery life. While recording a full HD video you soon would receive a message informing you that the device is getting hot, it temporarily turns off some of the features, in the end as you continue to record, the application simply shuts down. Features die at approximately 3 minutes and completely shut itself down within 10 minutes. Moreover, the device does get hot even when in use, I have played a simple 2-D game and the device wad hot like it has been left in the sun. Sony has also decided to abandon the waterproofing on the "standard" xperia X, I quite miss it as it seemed to be Sony's signature.
This device would be good for some people which don't use the phone as much. It probably would last longer if not due to the overheating.
Overall, Sony has went the right way regarding the new features. Unfortunately this particular device definitely is lacking improvement, that would include the software and the hardware capability. These little flaws affect my user experience greatly, compared to iPhone 5s (which is an old model) it presents itself better with the design and hardware.
Should you get this phone?
Do you you camera frequently, on daily basis?
Do you want a waterproof device?
Do you listen to music through headphones?
Do you kill time by playing games daily?
If you have answered Yes to the above, your user experience might not be as good as on other devices. Yet it is completely your choice, I've made my mistake, thanks to Vodafone 30 day guarantee I do not have to live with this for the duration of the contract!
No, I do not recommend this product.

This is a lovely phone. However, battery life is down to half after half a day just browsing social media and listening to a bit of music. The saver mode doesn't seem to change much. Sound quality also not as good as previous sony phones. Easy to use though and some good features.

Had a xperia z2 and upgraded to the X was so excited as 2years on my Z2 battery still lasted me a good day and a half. With my new one i have had nothing but problems, settings changing on me no real difference in tech from my other phone other than the finger reader and better camera.
Battery is useless within me been up a couple of hour the battery saving mode is coming on i have mine set at 60% and thats me just using my radio and going on social media in a morning. So disappointed that im looking to downgraded to the Z5 as that has better reviews
No, I do not recommend this product.

Unless you have very good hearing aids i would not recommend this phone. Sound quality for a Sony product is dire to say the least. Expected a lot more from this flagship phone. Cant hear it ringing too well, as not loud enough, whilst on calls find myself listening extremely hard to hear person on the other end, and no i don't have poor hearing.
Other than that a nice phone, let down by poor sound.
No, I do not recommend this product.

In love with my X. Got it in Rose Gold which is just gorgeous! The camera is Amazing on it, definitely up there with the best (used them all before) I am getting well over a day with my battery too. Result as I Facebook a lot! :)
It fits really nice in my hand too, being a girl sometimes phones are just too big, this is perfect. Definitely a Sony fan now!
