          I was thinking buying Sony Xperia 1 V but update promise is just so bad(2 years of android updates and 3 years of security updates).

          3 years of android updates and 4 years of security updates should be mininum for a smartphone.

          Google could force oems for that if they want to use Play store etc.

              pl2rts, 08 Jan 2024Why so weird article title like Sony is doing something out... moreLimited budget.

              Samsung mobile makes almost same amount of money compared to entire sony group.
              Apple makes 3x more than samsung with iphones/ipads

                Why so weird article title like Sony is doing something out of ordinary by pushes new updates for less then 2 years old phones.
                When Sony have like stock android on there phones and also promise more then 2 years of updates

                  All the Mark 5 got the updates, so does the Mark 4.

                    Just got andriod 13 on my moto phone, I don't think A14 is that different so I wont care anymore.

                      Bravosixgoingdark, 08 Jan 2024Sony needs to make its own android skin or at least it'... moreSony adds stuff to android. They dont think it is worth to have certain own apps over some GApps

                      I wish album was back. Google Photos is awful.

                        Got A13 in January last year too, seems to be a consistent thing, atleast in the UK. Shame it isn't anything huge or new. Also hoping it won't create any large bugs.

                          Sony needs to make its own android skin or at least it's own device app suit, stock android is getting even more bare bones and most new features are pixel exclusive
