I would like to buy a Sony phone as I hear they are some of the best devices for LineageOS and are long-lasting. I am in the market for the best-value Sony phone that is supported by LineageOS officially.
My device would have to work with the Tracfone BYOP program (which I think should be just about any phone? correct me if I’m wrong).
Ideally this Sony phone would be:
- As new as possible to ensure longevity
- Have a minimum of 8 GB RAM
- Have a minimum of 128 GB storage
- Be at most US$300-400 (can be used in good condition off EBay or the like. No links needed, but just a tell of if the price range is possible for the device)
- In the US$200 range
- Have a headphone jack
- Have a microSD slot
(Italics is ideal but not essential)
What phones would fit this criteria? Would love to have a discussion on if my desired criteria is even possible (I’m open to a reality check 😂)
As far as I know, yes.
I have a Xperia 1 VI (XQ-EC72) and bootloader is unlockable.
For best results, don’t go with the US/UK versions, go global.
