Global sales of foldable smartphones rose by an impressive 49% in the first quarter of 2024, but Samsung's sales fell by 42% compared to the same quarter last year, meaning the technology giant was unable to maintain its position at the top of the market.
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.
Only for security updates.
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! 😂😂😂😂😂
No shame in that! We gotta have something to die for these days. Haha
