Title: Sony annoys Xperia users by making previously free feature part of subscripton
Post by: Redaktion on September 02, 2025, 00:12:22

First a major defect unseen in any flagship phones, and now a paywall. Sony is digging its own grave.

No thanks, Sony, I think I'll pay ONCE to Atomos for a Ninja, the industry standard and a larger screen to boot.

I don't have a camera, and have never used the app, but yes I am outraged (although I think I can still use the app on my Xperia 5v)
