Quality Xperia phones

Hi

I'm really annoyed now. Today our third Xperia Phone (2 Xperia X and one Xperia XA2) died.

  1. first one: the touch screen had non responsive regions after about 4 month of use (no water, no crashes). warranty was gone because of the sailfish flash (i didn't backuped the TA partition)
  2. second: I went to swim ...my fault
  3. the xa2: while using android and waiting for the sailfish xa2 release, this morning the screen was frozen. Now the phone is off an I cannot get it to boot. After 3 month of normal use!!!

So 2 of 3 phones died after less than 5 month. My girlfriend has now a new xperia x, but I'm not willing to buy just ne more of these shitty xperia phones. The man on the sony support hotline was also very unfriendly :( ...and Jolla support also does not care about any issue with hardware probs.

I'm now wondering if its just bad luck or do the xperia phones have serious quality issues.... I'd really love to still use sfos, but with this creepy hardware, my very long sfos journey (since jolla 1) probably ends now. (the jolla 1 of may girlfriend is still working with a total chrashed display, after lying an afernoon in a puddle on the street....)
