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.
Shame that for that price it will only give you 2 years of updates like a 200€ phone.
Apparently they give 3 years of OS + 1 year of security updates now
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.
As always, price is ridiculous
Meanwhile s24 ultra base version is 1500 euro where I’m from
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.
Too bad no good trade in values. That is how Samsung continues to dominate in North America.
