So, I am in the process of switching from android to sfos and I have a choise to make. Since the Xperia 10 III is out should I wait? I have no idea of how long porting time is from jolla and I can wait some months.
I know similar quentions have been asked, But I’d like to know your opinions.
Related previous-data-based guesstimates on possible timeframes from another thread (Xperia 10 III support - #9 by Mazoon): 3 weeks from initial GitHub import to announcement of addition to Open Devices Program by Sony, first SFOS release 6-10 months after that.
The way I understood it, the Xperia 10 II took extra long because of the new Android base and the new architecture, but future devices should (comparatively) get Sailfish support a bit quicker.
As long as they do not change their behaviour regarding the usability of dual SIM and SD card, this is not an option (for me) and I would need to keep my XA2 plus, only/last one with this possibility?
(if I ever would switch to this huge glass bar slab!)
I have a rare possibility to buy new Xperia 10 III at very good price. But I’m not happy with it running android. So, is official support for 10 III comes anytime soon? Should I buy it now?
If you’re willing to wait a few weeks, or a couple of months, and you have a good price now, then go for the X10 III, it’s better (bigger battery, better CPU, camera seems better).
I got my Xperia 10 III in mid November (approx. €170 with a 2 year plan at €35 a month). I would love to flash it tonight, but I’m happy if I can have SFOS on it some time this summer, hopefully this side of Midsummer’s Eve
