I use Sony Xperia phones, they aren't as big and still have the same features I love - SD Card and Headphone Jack
Good luck finding new ones in the US.
I either get them from Amazon or Sony directly. I'm glad they moved from the glass back to a textured back.
I've eyed some Xperias. How are the security updates?
None, Sony makes no promises of long term support. The most they usually support a device is two years if even. Typically they only commit to one version of Android upgrade and then you are on your own.
Apparently they're up to three years now. Woo.
That's not bad. I usually keep a Pixel around to AOSP Style ROMs just in case nothing compelling comes out between big vendor releases. I'm already dreading the day my Galaxy Flip4 goes OOS. Have a Pixel 7 running Graphene as a backup/ travel burner currently.
Only for security updates.
... you mean that thing we were talking about?
They will give you updates for about 2 years. Every device I had was upgraded from 13 to 14. I personally don't have a problem with it. Sometimes new features you don't like so you stick with the old.
I couldn't care less about the major versions, but announcing they'll stop with the security fixes three years after the release date for a device that I can't update reliably any other way was a deal breaker for me.
That and the fact that they, too, are just too damn huge. Yes, even the 5 and 10. No, their aspect ratio doesn't fix that. Thank you for coming to my ted talk.
Everyone has their things to look for, I have the 1, it's slightly larger than the 5, but for me it was headphone jack and SD card slot.
I gave up on expandable storage and a headphone jack. Bought a nice portable player with a DAC, but I respect dying on the hill.
I'm on the hill! ๐๐๐๐๐
No shame in that! We gotta have something to die for these days. Haha
