Not surprised about this. I am surprised it took them so long to move to fully contract manufacturing.

Damn this stinks. I have an Xperia V 1 and its absolutely a fantastic phone. Sad to see another competitor, especially a high end one, go by the way side.

If this means all what they stand for at a better price, better availability and better software update, I am good with this.

The 21:9 aspect ratio on the modern Xperia has always felt like it adds size with very little benefit. Makes usage two handed very often. Such a shame they didn't keep a 16:9 compact.

What it means is that they will contract the manufacturing to someone else, they are not going anywhere

It has turned into this weird thing. The short of it is: antennas and battery, and a touch of telemetry.
There are so many bands across so many frequencies, as well as needing multiple antennas for MIMO that they all take space.
Large batteries are required to run the modems and ostensibly laptop processors, and also...
...All the telemetry gathering they do requires power, also adding to the desire of a big battery. (The last one is fascinating, a phone on GrapheneOS will last 2-7 days on a charge depending on use. The same on stock Android will barely last a day.)
