Customers are positive about the XPERIA X Performance's camera quality, compact size, good price, and impressive specifications. They appreciate the phone's high-quality camera, manageable size, affordability, and powerful features that surpass many newer mid-priced phones.
I've treid several phones but overall this is my flat out favorite phone. I wouldn't trust the reviewers because I now know they're biased and flat out wrong. The phone is great. The screen is a great size/responsive (and quite honestly it isn't ginormous like 5.5 inch phones and fits nicely in my hand). The main reason I love this phone? The camera! It launches lightnig quick unlike other phones, has tons of features for smile detection and other features to take great pictures. It can auto-focus lightning quick and the processing is quite good (it's not an oversaturated image quality but you can always slightly adjust this later if you'd like -> which is my own preference). I have tried several phones before and found a lot of phones would be super slow with taking pictures and when trying to take a picture of my sister's kids (1-3 year olds); they'd either be a blurry mess or the pictures would be worthless. With this phone, I now have a great camera in my pocket for those life moments which can take great pictures as well. The anti shock stabilization really helps as I am a jittery person and take pictures quickly such as the ones I attached on a hike. I would consider giving this phone a chance. I wouldn't scuba dive with it but the water proofing is a great peace of mind in the event I drop my phone in water by accident as well and so far I can't imagine going away from this phone or Sony phones in the future. I did try two other very popular phones that came out earlier this year and I always had issues with parts of the phone (if you're looking for a phone to be a phone or camera this is a great choice especially with the dedicated shutter button).

I used this phone for about 2 years and worked well. Got infected with malware - and messed up by the android and sony updates. I tired to make a manual backup of the photos on the phone to a hard drive. I met some resistance backing up my photos. But, luckily I was able to back it up. Then the phone became useless after further software updates and loads of android malware. Forced to move on to a much more expensive iPhone....

Needs to be left alone for first two days for all the updates from the 2 years since this was released... Warranty info updates during that time too. Really wish best buy had the bespoke Sony case for this, but available elsewhere. If you don't need latest & greatest, this is an excellent choice with specs above most of the newest medium-priced phones.
