Hi @N4KITO, Welcome to the community. I am sorry to hear about this

Are the SD cards able to be read in other devices? Are they formatted in exFAT or NTFS?

Yes I tried on other phones Samsung Galaxy 7 and a Lumia 950 XL and the cards is recognized by both. I try both formats but nothing works

Try reformatting one of them from inside the Xperia phone.

To format the memory card

From your Home screen, tap .
Find and tap Settings > Storage & memory.
Tap , then tap Advanced > Storage > SD Card > , then tap Settings > Format > Erase & format.

It may be incompatible. Do you have another SD card you can try?

Yes I tried another card but same result. Are there cards to avoid or to prefer?

Not really, they should be pretty universal. Is it still the same in safe mode? If so, try a software repair using Xperia Companion.
