    I’ve had a Sony phone for my last 2 phones, so quite some time. Great units, WITH that delicious headphones jack AND microSD slot. Praying to the phone gods that this continues.

        I’ve own 3 Moto Gs. They are good budget bricks. But they do not age well as far as software goes.

      Didn’t know there was anyone still doing that. I assume no removable battery? Any pre installed bloatware?

        Hi mate, both Sony devices were fairly clear of bullshit software, but I used ADB to remove Facebook etc. Compared to Samsung Galaxy Tablet of the same year, the Sony is a clean dream. All my music is on the microSD card (almost all FLAC). Internal DAC is good too.

        Lots of Chinese phones definitely do IR blaster, dual SIM and SD card. I don’t think the headphone jack is as common since it steals a lot of room for something that most people actually do not use or want.

          mine is dual SIM. i don’t think i’ve ever used that slot since my cellphone telephone company moved to eSIMs. I’d rather have the microSD slot
