super tempted cause of the free xm5 but the os n security update only 2yrs? tts abit short for flagship phone?

2 years ago was for last version. this one idk..

2 years support only is a shame indeed, esp for flagship

If you're eyeing the xm5 can camp for cc sign up rewards ah, don't need spend 2k for it lol. I just redeemed mine last month.

Yea hopefully they don't prematurely close the preorder, reapplying for a citi cc to get dyson fluffy LOL, dunno why approval so long

Yes, this. Was hoping for at least 3 since Sony likes to advertise their battery capacity only depletes by x% after 3 years. So in that sense there's some expectations the phone is gonna be used for 3 years at least.

I was under the impression 2 major version upgrades and 3 year security updates. But can`t find any official statement on that.

So far the 2 major versions of Android part seems to be true from experience (Xperia 1 III from Android 11 to 13). But somehow after the 2 years mark updates just stop entirely altogether for my 1 ii. Not sure if it's an oversight on Sony's part and have yet to see what happens for 1 III beyond the 2 years mark.

last version was 2 years and 2 major updates..

so i would presume if android 13 had been late, it would be more than 2 years lor

for THIS model, nobody knows. sony didnt say anything

Same. Buying a cheap glass protector as insurance. Breaking a glass protector is always better than the display glass that costs few hundreds to repair.

There was once I was traveling in a train overseas. My phone was in my jeans pocket. When I stood up, my thigh was caught in the seat handle with my phone in it. The pressure caused a horrible crack on the screen protector. The phone itself was unscratched. So yes screen protector has its uses.

You can buy an apple 3.5mm to USB c dongle

It works on most android phones

 

[ecneret_eel]

just to confirm, the deal now is $1,969 as stated on website, with pre-order gifts being XM5 with leather case

we don’t have visibility on what the case is like yet right

 

[ecneret_eel]

[jt2901]

the 3.5mm should never have been removed.

If had purple would have been purple, but oh well someone at Sony wanted to change for the sake of changing
