Each minor variant has it's own release. The release intervals vary randomly for 37 to 120 days, and the security patches are at least a month old when an update arrives. Several Xperia mark III/IV phones are still Android 12 with the October 2022 security patch.
There are no bug fixes. Android 12 broke 4k display, system settings, and cellular C-bands. They're still broken today. Many phones still have fake 5G, no VoNR, no VoWiFi, or even VoLTE.

                      21:9, on the other hand, is clearly a mainstream aspect ratio that is used on basically every single movie you've watched in cinemas.

                              21:9 is industry stardard like 4:3, 3:2, 16:9 and 17:9.

                              18:9, 19:9 and 20:9 are not.

                                This is of course good, but why do they make smartphones with too elongated form factor, and not only them. I want to throw away such a smartphone, because the screen seems too large and it is not good. I hope the time of crazy marketing will pass soon
