Where are all those smartphone camera "experts" who kept telling me a shutter button on an XPERIA was a bad idea because shutter buttons shake your photos too much?
I mean that was never true, and it was a silly criticism of an awesomely useful hardware feature, but I'm SURE we can expect all those slobs to be internally consistent and recommend against using Apple's version of the shutter button.
Right?

@[email protected] It's kind of a running theme on tech YouTube these days. Tech "enthusiasts" motivated to comment on videos only appreciate the popularity of product.
If a company is less popular, it doesn't matter if they have useful or fun features, those features are never "worth it". Especially if those features aren't on a more popular phone.
So an XPERIA is often made fun of for having a headphone jack and memory card expansion, and a shutter button has to be mocked.
It's all fanbois and bias confirmation. The rational people aren't leaving comments like they used to, because why would they?
Ah I see. Yeah I always wanted an Xperia for those very reasons lol.
@[email protected] People with taste often appreciated what the XPERIA could do.

@[email protected] they were great phones but once tmobile dropped them they dropped the weird frequencies tmoble uses and so I had too many dead zones.
Were they only on T-Mobile? I bought a used one years ago but only to play PlayStation remotely in my bath lol. Never activated service on it, plus it was cracked.

Huh. I think you have to go a ways back for T-Mobile support. Like the X Compact?
I think the last carrier they worked with was VZW for mmWave on the XPERIA pro. Other than that, theyve only been unlocked devices over the last six years.
That's why I asked. I remember them being unlocked which is awesome

@[email protected] yeah it was a while ago. I bought some post carrier unlocked devices and they worked great when they had service but some places they didn't while carrier phones worked.

@[email protected] I'm not sure, I thought on more but I don't pay attention to other providers
