This model we decided to put in the rating higher than the Xperia X Performance Dual, becausethe price of Xperia X is 8 thousand rubles less, and reviews about it are much better. As for the technical specifications, 32 GB of permanent memory will be enough for most users, and those who do not have enough of them will need the support of an external memory card. So, to overpay for 64 GB of permanent memory, Xperia X Performance does not make much sense, although it's worth noting a more modern processor in this model.
