Google removed jack from Pixel, and I went shopping for an alternative when my last pixel broke down. Here is my filter: https://www.gsmarena.com/results.php3?

Google removed jack from Pixel, and I went shopping for an alternative when my last pixel broke down. Here is my filter: https://www.gsmarena.com/results.php3?chk35mm=selected&sSIMTypes=4&sIPCerts=6&idCardslot=1 https://www.gsmarena.com/results.php3?chk35mm=selected&sSIMT... Ip68 is important. I went with xperia 10, and am positively surprised. Fits all the checkboxes and less undesired software than google. I don't have the mandatory search bar in the front screen!

Your filter includes only eSIM but if you also include nanoSIM, you get 183 instead of only 5 results which is quite a lot. More than I expected.

  I need the eSim. :) Obviously removing the filter yields more.

    Thank you for sharing. You convinced me to create my own list, which is also slim pickings https://gsmarena.com/results.php3?chk35mm=selected&chkAccelerometer=selected&chkGyro=selected&chkCompass=selected&chkProximity=selected&chkBarometer=selected&chkGPS=selected&chkUSBC=selected&nBatCapacityMin=5000&s5Gs=71&sIPCerts=6&idCardslot=1&sWLANs=7 https://gsmarena.com/results.php3?chk35mm=selected&chkAccele...

      For whatever reason, Xperia phones are given the cold shoulder in these discussions. I secretly wish everyone who has complained about headphone jack/card slot/hole punch/screen size would buy one, and then limit their complaining to only whatever remains that an Xperia phone doesn't provide.

        They are ignored because their prices are not competitive. I really like their design but can't justify the cost.

        I just cracked the screen on my Pixel 5a yesterday and ordered an Xperia 10 IV this morning to replace it thanks to this thread. I've owned an Xperia Z3 Compact and Z5 Compact previously and was quite happy with them. In fact the Z5C still does bicycle computer duty today. I paid all of $340 for the (brand new) Xperia 10 IV. Not sure how that's not a competitive price for the features and quality you get.
