With 3GB of RAM to boot, daily usage of the Xperia XA1 gave me a much smoother and quicker overall performance as compared to the Xperia XA.
Powered with Android Nougat, the XA1 is capable of learning and understanding your daily usage patterns and will craft out a detailed plan for you and your daily activities, making your day that much better.
