Apart from the specifications, the Xperia X comes with a new specialcolour in the Xperia series – lime gold, that appears eye-pleasing and unique.
Although the Xperia X and XA comes with rose gold colour variant, both smartphones has a unique distinct colour and appearance due to the difference on the material used in the smartphone.
Sony Xperia X and XA will be available in all authorized Sony Mobile retail store on 22th June onwards. Xperia XA Ultra will only be available after July.
The Sony Xperia XA and XA Ultra comes with each unique hardware and features as well as colour that distinct itself from the rest. Priced at RM1199 to RM1699, both smartphone are suited well on the mid-range smartphone market. However, the Xperia X that priced at RM2499 is indeed an outlier in the mid-range smartphone industry. We wonder what does it offers before we get a chance to try it out.
