    First mistake was...They ditched comm provider contracts in so many countries, including mine, only to rely on just certain webshop sales and YT commercials. That strategy only works for low and midtier OEMs selling cheap devices with minimum marketing needs, but not for hightier and premium OEMs like Sony. Guess it was due to marketing cost cutting starting from back in 2016.

    The other mistake is...If one tracks up for ex Xperia YT reviews, one can notice many of them exclaim at start that they got their device from Sony for a short review period of time, with a return policy, and that they were in no way paid to say good or bad things about the device. You dont hear that kind of claims from other phone reviews. Certainly its the same policy with all, big or small subscr reviewers, and Some just meh them with their pretty shallow revs, others just love them after doing some proper deepdives. And therein lies the second Sony marketing problem.
    So, While I acclaim their obvious marketing integrity, I am certain that in todays web marketing circus, messed up as it is, there is no space for integrity, but only agressive incentivised marketing. Honesty can take them only so far, to fall short.

    Im perplexed how even with that bad marketing, they achieve profits from their mobiles.

      ASJ1901, 30 Jul 2021People sometimes underestimate the role marketing plays in sales.Yes. SONY is dumb. Don't know why it ended up like that but SONY currently has no sense of Marketing. The reason for drop in SONY sales is not their products being inferior(which they are not, SONY has best products out there in the market) it is their non existent marketing. And for some reason there is not even a single person seated in high enough position who realize that and address the issue.

                            Sony is like Apple have own designs. I think Sony should make SonyOS based on Android or own OS.
