    Some of their phones are guaranteed to get 1 OS update. 1.

    Sony seems to be a king in the mid range recently. More expensive than Motos and Xiaomis - sure.

    Sony Xperia 10 V

    • 5Ah battery.
      " Sd card slot.
    • headphone jack.
    • SD 695 and not some Exynos or Mediateks in Motos
    • decent camera.(sideloading a gcam may improve results)
    • No Glass back(almost all Motos have this BS).
    • No curved edges.
    • 1 month back with security updates.
    • Some phones, even mid range, get 3 OS updates.

    Almost Pixel at home

      All Sony phones (including their flagships) get two years of OS updates and three years of security patches. That’s rumoured to change this year but the Xperia 1 III and 5 III are not getting Android 14.

        Sony lists software updates history. Some devices get proper updates like Pixels or Samsungs.

        Which to me was really surprising. Japan can be really weird about software.
