The best screen protector for Xperia XA1 Ultra, because of it's curved edges is from Supershieldz. From my own personal purchages this is the best. Oilphobic, smooth touch surface, curves with exact match, and no air bubbles. http://a.co/2xWD1oM

I don't notice lag. However I do have my own gripes about the phone.

Negatives

No Gyroscope. When I play this really good game bh3.com It doesn't apply the Gyroscope feature.
Because of Nougate, when I change the dpi size to 540 "smallest width" in developer mode; the 'Action Bar' is out of alignment. If I change it to 600 "smallest width" turning it to tablet mode; I cannot file management fails and cannot attach files.
No front facing speakers, it's on the bottom
No fingerprint reader (however XA1 Plus 5.5 inch screen Internationa Version does)
No stylist / any object to write feature
No Remote Play (only for flagships i.e. XZ5 Premium and XZ Premium)

Positives

There's a Dual SIM version
There's a 64GB internal version (G3226) and price point.
One of the best-itteration of the 6 inch phablet-phone in balance design and specs since the Xperia Z. It took quite a while.
Type-C connect and Quick Charge
1080p
Front face flash.

Yes. There are wireless communication problems which is extremely frustrating. See these posts:

Yes,the power button has gotten stuck on the second day. I returned it, and got another same phone xa1 Ultra. It's been 4 months and now the power button is getting stuck on this one. So ridiculous, and now I have to go through my camera to unlock my screen. It's not cool. They need to get better components...

I have been using an XA1 Ultra for the last 6 months and it has been good except for one issue - it keeps getting logged out of my wifi - and can only be re-connected by re-booting the phone. My wifi service provider reviewed the problem and suggested that I take the phone back to the dealer (Freedom) - who wants to send the phone to their service centre and it will take 3-4 weeks for it to be returned. I understand that others have also experienced this problem.

The issue with dropping WiFi will supposedly be solved with a new software upgrade. Unfortunately, depending on who your provider is, the upgrade may take some time to become available to you. I am also with Freedom, so I wouldn't hold your breath.

First thing to trouble shoot data (besides factory reset) is find mms settings.

Second is make sure your mobile data limitations are correct. So you're not cut off unnecessarily.

Obvious, but just to double check short icons: data, data saver, airplane mode. I only use data saver when traveling..

If you're a real data conscious. Google Chrome has its own data saver in mobile Chrome settings. Again, I only turn on while traveling.

Hope that helps in some way.

I use the app Timely. It can help the alarm go off even if the phone is off and silent. (I think).

It's a good phone in terms of cost compared to premium smart phones, good battery life, great screen size and camera but would never buy this model again due to malfunctioning of the call function whereby callers cannot hear me unless I turn my loudspeaker on.
