I will soon be able to order my Sony Xperia 1 VII in purple orchid to replace my 1 VI. In entertainment electronics since the 80s I always buy Japanese. Panasonic Technics first or otherwise Sony (I have the Technics EAH-AZ100 headphones). I live in Switzerland and if next year the Sony Xperia are no longer available outside Asia (?) (we are at least sure that they will not stop immediately in the world) I think that I will buy another color next year to be able to keep them for several years. Honestly I would not want any other brand at the moment among those available. Sharp or others are even less available. but I hope that the Sony Xperia remain available in Europe even if it is only in the official Sony store<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/08\/1b5ae2a640d08ac2f84d72b7b5d3a971\" alt=\"\"\/><\/p>\n<p class=\"uopin\"><a href=\"#3107255\" class=\"uinreply\">DeepIn2U, 5 hours ago<\/a>Sure they do&#13;<br \/>\n&#13;<br \/>\nWhich has audio features in 3.5mm headset jack? &#13;<br \/>\n&#13;<br \/>\nWhich focuses on.

As I said, other controllers can have drift issues after long periods of usage. However, the Joy-Con drift issue occurs very early such as only in 2 years or less. That was the problem. When people talk about the Joy-Con drift issue, it is understood that they mean the widespread, early drift issue.

After using my Sony 2 years it got really slow and annoying. Never played games but it was heating and the back panel started to come out of the frame. My first Samsung was S6 Edge. Great at first but laggy after that. Then bought A52. For a midrange phone it was great. Still works my aunt uses it now. My current phone is Samsung S24+ large and great phone in all aspects. Yes lags happen sometimes but overall works really fine. Tried Google Pixels but they are boring and basic. Another good alternative is Oneplus.<\/p>\n<p>o<\/p>\n<p class=\"uopin\">What\u2019s the point though?
