I have flashbacks to using external storage on Android. It was such a shit show of an API.
That being said, external storage, to break away from cloud storage is the next needed thing. We need to own the data.
You can with very basic root tools, but really that just solidifies your point. It’s an easy thing to do, but they’ve intentionally taken away the ability for no good reason
Ah, I had the Experia XZ Compact before, the performance was awful, even when I didn’t have high expectations.
It even had trouble just web browsing static, textual webpages.
The camera was really good, but that was the only thing I was happy with.
Either way, the fact that your good Sony phone is around € 1200 speaks volumes.
We need SD cards more. They removed them so they can charge you 300 $ to upgrade 128gb and to force you into shitty cloud service.
Again, just anti consumer bullshit spearheaded by Apple and gargled by Samsung.

When you design an OS to pretend there’s no such thing as a file, it ends up being bad at handling files.
Yeah, even today, browsing through files on Android is a fucking mess. And there isn’t an SD card.
So the SD card wasn’t the problem
I was trying to figure out recently how do I copy files into application user data directory, it turns out you just can’t, lol.

It’s perfectly fine on Sony Xperia.
Which did away with the headphone jack and asks €400 for crap performance.
Nah I’m sticking to my Samsung XCover
Xperia IV aren’t crap performance but they are 3x €400
It was the SOC that wasn’t great. Nothing to do with the manufacturers.

Mobile Linux seems to carry it really good
Samsung was actually one of the later Android manufacturers to drop it is my recollection.
Yeh and fuck them
Agreed
