    Nice to see a new flagship with a MicroSD slot and a headphone jack. Also, Sony have a good track record with opening up their Android phones.

    But yeah, shame about the price.

          Yeah, slightly better now, but still lackluster in a phone of this class.

          Especially considering that eventually every phone in the EU starting June 2025 will be required to offer at least 5 year updates. You’d think that they could offer that level of support slightly earlier to someone willing to drop well over 1k€ on their phone. Unless of course they plan to pull out of the european market at that point.

      Although interestingly the price of the 10 series continues to fall quite significantly. I’m not quite sure what Sony’s strategy is but it seems they are trying something at the moment.

    I really like my tall boi mark V so I’m a bit disappointed they’re moving away from the 21:9 aspect ratio.

    Edit: Not that it is utilized at all. They’re after all a Japanese company. Implementing really cool things with no clue as to why they did it or why anyone would be excited about it is kind of their thing.

    It would be so cool to be able to snap photos in this format but no.

    Too bad no good trade in values. That is how Samsung continues to dominate in North America.
