Sony Xperia XA1 G3116 Dual SIM 32 GB Gold, New, unlocked international model
Gold is the finish on this brand new Sony Xperia XA1 G3116 Dual SIM with 32GB of storage, an international dual-SIM model sold without a carrier. Exporters supplying GSM and LTE markets in Latin America and Asia take the gold XA1 as a compact Sony with a 23 MP camera that lists well against same-price Androids, and marketplace sellers want it boxed and unused.
The Sony Xperia XA1, model G3116, is the dual-SIM version of Sony's 2017 mid-range phone: a 5.0-inch 720p IPS display with Sony's near-borderless side frame, a MediaTek Helio P20 octa-core chipset, 3 GB of RAM, 32 GB of storage with microSD expansion to 256 GB, and a 23 MP rear camera that was the model's selling point against other phones at its price. It shipped on Android 7.0 with an update to Android 8.0, charges over USB-C, and keeps a headphone jack and FM radio.
Dealers buy the XA1 from TG Wireless as a new, boxed dual-SIM LTE Android for export to GSM markets, for marketplace sellers who list compact Sony handsets, and for collectors of Sony's last compact mid-range designs.

Condition: New
Brand new units in the original box with the original in-box accessories as listed. Nothing has been activated or reconditioned. If your channel needs sealed retail packaging rather than open-box new, say so when you request a quote so the account manager can confirm how the lot is packed.
Network and compatibility
This XA1 listing is a dual-SIM G3116 sold without a carrier; see the network status line in the table. It is a GSM, HSPA, and 4G LTE phone, so it is not stranded by the US 2G and 3G retirements, but the G3116 is an international variant that Sony never sold through a US carrier. Whether a US network accepts it for VoLTE calls depends on that carrier's device list, so confirm with the carrier before planning activations. Outside the US, check the G3116 LTE bands against the local networks; in GSM and LTE markets abroad it is a straightforward unlocked dual-SIM phone.
Resale fit
- Export to Latin America, Asia, and Europe, where an unlocked dual-SIM Sony with a 23 MP camera and USB-C still sells at mid-range retail.
- Marketplace sellers who list compact 5-inch Android phones in new, boxed condition.
- Collector and enthusiast buyers of Sony's Xperia line, especially in the Gold finish.
