Sony phones are a lost cause but happy they push the envelope for phone cameras

They're great tho. If I had the money, I would buy it.

Software support for their phones is abysmal like multiple other brands. 1.5-2 years of support and that's it.

Let's not get started about their camera auto mode either.
BUT they have an SD slot, headphone jack and fantastic media quality. And if you know how to handle the camera, you can get some high quality pictures out of it and even though it doesn't do as well as eg Samsung in low light conditions, it can put out some very natural images which samsung sadly never does.

If they had better software support and pricing then I'd jump immediately.

Ya no excuse for the lack of support. I can't drop that kind of money on a phone that's not garunteed to work more than 2 yrs. Especially for a phone that's probably not popular enough to have a lot of homebrew support either.

Sony phones all have an unlocked bootloader so there are plenty of options for running your own OS once you stop getting official updates (which is actually 3-4 years with the 1 5 10 range)

Support has been upped to three os updates plus two years of security patches for new generations. Basically the lifespan of the hardware. Plus they make it easy to load your own OS if you want to after it stops receiving official support.

Well that's a much welcome development I didn't know about. Happy to be wrong in this case, especially with loading custom Roms after support ends.
