No support, but I was impressed with the LeEco S3 for $88 a few weeks back. Very similar specs, with a larger 5.5" screen and smaller bezels. Metal build, 1080p screen, 3gb of ram.
I'd prefer the Moto X4 with the same CPU, all 4 carrier support, ip68, and (if ordered from Google) Android One. I'm glad this option is now roughly the same price for those that want a choice (minus the X4 $200 @ Newegg recently).
Also, while the OG Sony fans love the side fingerprint reader, it's nice to see it have one that works out of the box, even if it has to change location (to the back)
I own the Xperia X and it is basically this phone with a different body and less battery life. The improved battery life would certainly be a big plus as it is the biggest drawback of the X. I think this is one of the nicest looking phones you can get at this price. Especially since the XA3 will not look nearly as slick or be as compact as this device. Better yet, no stupid notch!

Have they added any Lineage support? I wasn't a fan of the UI and aggressive battery management when I tried the Pro 3, even with a different launcher (which really only helps the first point)
I will say it was physically a nice phone with great battery life and some shortcuts. I returned it mainly due to the poor camera. At $300 (or was it $400?) that was the Poco F1 of a couple years ago, had the camera and UI been better

There is Lineage support, but with some camera hiccups. So I'm just using stock with Nova Launcher. Everything works great, and I found some nice cases on eBay, but on a slow boat from China.
