Got to agree with the conclusion of the review, while this seems like a decent offering (and I personally like the "retro" look), for Є400, you might as well get a A55 with a much better screen and probably longer security support (Android OS updates aren't that important these days).

But the A55 doesn't have a headphone jack, this can be a game changer for some.

I had to import a xperia 1V because the offering for high end phone with 3.5mm jack and an SD card slot is pretty much non-existant where I am (Canada).

I am in Canada, from where did you import it?

In 2021 I ordered from mi4canada, they were legit at the time, shipped in about a week

I also ordered from mi4canada. No issue here with them

While I am a big supporter of having the headphone jack (I see no reason to have another device requiring charging), I feel like this is one smartphone feature that unfortunately doesn't stand a chance to survive in the future (I think SD card support has a somewhat better chance, but I could be wrong).

But yes, the headphone jack is a good differentiator relative to the A55.
