For example? I mean, it is expensive but there are literally no other phones with the same chipset, an sd card slot and a headphone jack. Vote with your wallet, etc.
Tbf, I also got it for about $600 so in my case it wasn't that expensive.
I wish it was 600 when it came out. In Europe it was 900€ and still is in many places, although it can be found around 800€.
As for features around the same price, for example Samsung s24 offers 7 years of software support compared to 4 at most I guess from Sony and 1 generation newer snapdragon.
But the s24 has several drawbacks for me: shitty bloated software likely with e-fuse blown if u try to root it, larger screen (6.2"), crappy underscreen fingerprint sensor(I love side-mounted capacitive), no jack, no sd.
I guess I will be stuck with the s10e for little while longer.
