Taking the opportunity to shill for Sailfish OS, which supports various Xperias.
My daily driver since 2020.
edit: only a few select models. Don't get your hopes up.
As an Xperia 5 III user I'm feeling very left out

Meh. I have a 10 VI. The phone is good, compact and great battery which is all I want. Except the software is bad. And it's a software issues the hardware isn't slow enough to explain why it takes a couple second everytime I unlock the phone before I can actually interact with the screen. Or lock the phone again.
Makes something like replying a simple "ok" to a message a chore. L
OUCH. I had Z1 and what I liked about that phone was how buttery smooth it was

All the good phones are dying. I still quite enjoy my 1 IV, and honestly the Xperia line would probably be my choice in a couple years when I am ready to upgrade if they are selling them in the US at that point.
I'm hoping Fairphone gets US support at some point because they seem like the best option.
It really feels like design peaked a decade ago. Headphone jacks, micro SD card slot, removable batteries, front-facing speakers. Everything good has been removed and the phones are 5x more expensive. The few phones left with some of those features are the cheap weak models for people who only use their phones to call and text.

Their midrange phones were never good

They stopped selling them in NZ years ago, I have a grey market mk6 and it works fine here and in the US
I heard the VI works fine in the US but I guess not the VII? The Xperia subreddit seems to constantly recommend against it

Need more non-American companies making top of the line phones!

Any idea what their support lifecycle is? Wondering how long they usually support a device.

The one I started with 5 years ago, the already venerable XA2, is still fully supported - since 2018.

Most phones are Japanese, Korean, or Chinese.

Owned an Xperia 5 III and liked it enough to replace it with a 5 IV. Miss having options for a compact flagship like the 5 IV or Zenfone 10. Headphone jack ftw.
Owned that phone as well but had to return it twice due to the pink stripe issue, otherwise I'd probably still use it to this day

I would instantly buy an Xperia Play 2 at any price.

We already have a Korean mega-conglomerate.
