My Sony Xperia 10iii still has that light as well as a heaphone jack, SD card slot that can be removed by hand (no ejector tool needed) and full waterproofing. These are literally all the features missing on newer phones. Plus it has a genuine 3 cameras: wide, ultrawide and telephoto - no fake "macro" BS here.
Best of all it's successor the Xperia 10v can be bought on the UK Sony site for just GBP299! Incredible price. But alas I don't live there but if one had a friend there you could have them order it send it to you via courier.
Yup, even though it's camera software is ass, I bought sony phone to "vote with my wallet".
Also you missed extremely important detail, no notch, pinhole or any type of that BS.
Can't you just use a different camera app? Or are we talking firmware?
I've had an Xperia for years. It's indestructible I swear, never had it in a case and it's been dropped, kicked, smacked, and generally knocked around for all of those years with hardly a scratch on it. I want to say I'm due an upgrade so I could think about a newer one, buuuut... Honestly it's just such a trooper I don't see why I'd bother. The XZ1 is nearly 7 years old now so the camera frankly sucks, but that's it.
I was thinking about getting a new phone and then I just picked up another 10 III. It's honestly just everything I need.
I'm really glad that there's a company making decent lower end phones that still have a niche and aren't just crappy versions of the flagships.
It would be nice for you to get a new Sony with better cameras and better life 😊
Sonys always made such cool phones. My Z3 was probably my favorite phone ever.
Yes. My first one was the Z2. Coming from iPhone the Z2 was a revelation! So, so far ahead.
Same, I recently upgraded from the Sony Xperia 1 to the 1 IV, it burns my hands at times but love all those features!
It's not a cheap phone, tho.
