3 days agoWell it was kinda logical when the PSN account was required, in the sense that you can’t activate it in the country it’s sold in because PSN doesn’t work in that country (another question is why it doesn’t but let’s not focus on that). But since there is no more PSN requirement then there’s nothing stopping people from activating it so it makes no sense to region lock it now.
I gave my old 4a to my father who enjoyed it tremendously. This bullshit update ruined the phone for him. Battery replacement helped but I really don’t see how such updates are okay to push for a company this big. They know there are two types of batteries and one of those can’t handle the update, because they’ve sent a warning to those phones. Maybe just don’t push the update to those phones instead?
