For the foreseeable future, Sony is holding on to both the microSD card slot and the 3.5mm headphone jack.
3 years of updates for flagships is not great.
I mean, might as well just go for the budget Motorola phones, they also have MicroSD card slot, headphone jack, IP68/69 water resistance, they are also at 3 years of security updates.
What's all the processing power even for, the Moto G Power (2025) (USD $300) is capable of doing most tasks.
Lack of updates isn't a killer as much as you think. I'm intentionally running a 5 year old version of Android (11) and never once have any security issues. The best defense is being smart about your usage no matter how old your software is.
