Buy Xperia 10 III while you still can. It's the best SailfishOS phone at the moment.

I have an Xperia 10 III, but it's running AOSP I built myself.

Basically none of this new restriction will bother me, since I don't run anything but stock AOSP and get all my apps from f-droid repos.

Eventually you will need a new phone and by then probably all phones will be locked down.

Hunting for one rn

Thanks for the heads up

It's really nice when you first use it but if you have to use it as a daily driver it's pure pain. Rather go for graphene.
