Google’s Pixel Leaves Little Room to Breathe for Sony Phones - Bloomberg
After a decade of loyalty to Sony, I surrendered my Xperia smartphone in favor of a Google Pixel last year, and it looks like I’m far from alone. But first...

I had several Xperias before switching to Pixel. It was the lack of updates that did it for me. Offer 7 years of updates in a repairable package and I'll buy an Xperia again. At this point the only two trains that look acceptable with their own pros and cons are Pixel and Fairphone.
I recently ordered a display and a battery for my Fairphone 4. Replacement took me about 10 minutes. She's still humming on /e/OS!
I keep hearing about /e/OS, I might give it a try! How is it for the banking apps, does it work as standard Android, or is there any issue?
No issues here, I use it for banking almost daily.
Sony will do the bare minimum that they are forced to. So 5 years due to the EU. Repairability idk about that. Parts are hard to source outside of Asia for Xperia phones.
5 years? That must be new. 🥹
I don't think Sony had said they will do that though.
Just as likely they will pull their phone from Europe lol
