Shocksquash, 03 Sep 2023700 euros really? 💀 700 Euro's is definitely expensive, but to be fair you can use this phone at least 8 years, 5 major android upgrades, 8-10 year security updates. 5 year warranty.
That's like 5x as much warrenty as most companies (outside of goverment mandated warrenty times)
Like 2x as many android upgrades as a lot of phones
2-3x as many security updates
So when I thought about that I do find it worth the price, still on the expensive side, sadly a lot of phones are

Anonymous, 03 Sep 2023My brother has a Note 9 with the TikTok UI burned into it s... moreI have been using OLED phones since 2017, never had a single burn in. A friend of mine has an S20 since 2021, it has already been burned in. But it's not because of the technology, it's how people handle their phones. A lot of people that have burned in phones are people that keep their screens on maximum 100% brightness almost everywhere, they often leave their screen on for long times, no auto sleep or turn of the screen when they don't use it. Often don't care about static content, leave apps (like tiktok or Instagram) open for hours.
You don't get OLED burn ins if you are only a tiny bit careful with your phone / screen

People say it's expensive upfront but if it lasts 8 years with one or two replacement batteries then it's cheap over its life.

Great phone for a specific audience. To be fair, the majority of people on this website is not that targeted audience. However, the people who are in for this phone will buy it anyways, the Fairphone 4 sold very well. This phone probably will sell even better.

No problem, i have it from 5-6 years, i use it just for gaming(you can understand it not was used for hard games:) ), it was becoming hot, but i have no problems with him. If you want to be sure that you oled or amoled screen will have at least 5 years of life you just need to look for a phone with decent thermal management and use it at an half of his max brightes( just buy an very bright screen an use it at a half).
Sorry for bad english
