No it still exists.
Because no other manufacturer makes the phone people want.
Sony only re-entered the market to make phones for themselves, but it's apparently commercially sustainable to keep going.
There's a lot of people who dislike the enshittified entertainment/electronic hardware market.
And you know something else? Zoomers are collecting retro consoles and emulating old games, listening to old music from reissued vinyl pressings, driving old cars and learning to work on them, and doing so many more oldschool things.
It's not so much about bringing the past back. They're doing what made the past so nice hoping it'll make the present worth a damn too. God bless em.

You can hear that from auto manufacturers as well, not from the official bosses but from people lower down the chain: "our customers don't want touchscreens."
The harsh reality is that they never wanted it in the first place.
Manufacturers simply took 1 look at the Tesla interior and said "yes, we need this" without asking anyone if it's a good idea.
With buttons, you can press anywhere you want. You know exactly where every button is.
But with touchscreens, it's a gamble, a guess, and there's 0 physical feedback so you're keeping your eyes off the road and hit things while checking if the car agreed with your physical diplomacy and actually turned the fucking heat down.

I was once in a focus group for phones, this was before the IPhone came out. And I was presented a range of concept phones. There's a whole funny story around it because I was a retarded 18 yearold and had no business being there.
But, one of the phones they build was a camera phone with a viewfinder. It was pretty crazy.

Sony's still old school.
The brand might be a universal name, but the company is basically 5 or 6 different companies sharing the name in structure.
Whatever Playstation fucks up typically doesn't interfere with their camera or pro audio business, and what goes right there doesn't mess with their phone or other consumer electronics businesses.
When that retarded Indian manager pushed the firmware update for the 4th gen Bluetooth in-ears that forced overvoltage to destroy the batteries and risk explosion, that didn't fuck with anything else Sony was doing, just their headphones.
More corporations should be segregated that way. It makes it easier to do based work under the noses of Jewish faggots.
