XA2 memory is at 1333MHz vs 933MHz on X.

Having it in hand now, i can not wait to have edge swipe on that thingy. The left and right edges feel like made with edge swipe in mind tbh. On Xperia X, only the glass is curved but on XA2 i get actual N9 feels! (- the size)

The XA2 is only marginally bigger than X, but 20g heavier, 170g vs 150g.
The screen size of 5.2" fitted on near same space than 5" Xperia X makes it look more advanced. Less bezel overall.

Ah, and connectivity options are more recent. Cat13 LTE (600Mbps) is possible on XA2 vs Cat6 (300Mbps) on X

@mosen you have the Dual-Sim version, don't you?
Is it true Dual-Sim? So are you able to put in two SIM-Cards AND a Micro-SD or is it just like: "You can decide, if you want to put in a second SIM OR a Micro-SD"?

No, 2 Sim + Sd is NOT possible.
It is one of those holders with only one dedicated sim and one sim/sd "slots".

Re: Sailfish OS (officially) on Sony Xperia devices

Yeah, with dual sim XA2 has only 32GB instead of 64GB on X.

Ok, so if I dicide to switch to a XA2. I can go for the Single-SIM version. To forgo extra space is a no go for me.

By the way: I'm thinking about a switch because of the following reasons:

Battery Life: While battery life on the Xperia X is quite good I expect a further significant improvement. Processor on XA2 should be more efficient and battery itself is way bigger.

Thicker phone: Xperia X is to thin. Without a sleeve I can't hold it really save in my hands.

Design: I never liked the Design of the Xperia X - it looks so trivial. The XA2 looks more special in my eyes quite attractive.

Why do I still hesitate?
Well, I'm still hoping that Chen presents a QWERTZ Slider anytime soon.

Re: Sailfish OS (officially) on Sony Xperia devices

I've already got XA2 - the design is very similar to N9 :)

Probably, but unfortunately it wasn't as brilliant as the N900. :D:p
Fu**! I'm missing a modern qwerty slider with a stylus...
