  • The hardware of Sony phones has been so attractive over the years. I had the Z3 & XZ1 years ago and they were great.

    However, the software is lacking. They don’t commit to long term OS/security updates.

    The price is also far too high for just a slab.

    This means that there are no ROMs that support recent flagship Sony devices.

    Honestly they don’t have to lower the price. If they just opened up the software I would make the jump.

    I’m holding onto the OnePlus 7 Pro for dear life because newer devices feel like such a compromise; great hardware and software is locked down to hinder ROM development or great ROM support and weak hardware.

    I feel a law that would go a long way would be to force companies to release code, drivers, and designs of any product they no longer support. That includes Intellectual Property. If you no longer support a product, then you don’t need the IP used on it.

    We either get everything we need to use EOL products however we want, or companies support products much longer to protect their IP.
