      This is a great phone:

      Good screen
      Good cameras
      AOD
      Long support

      The phone feels good in hand and not that heavy even it is more than 200gr it feels just not heavy. It is a bit thick though.

      No charger in the box but use the old charger from previous phone so not a problem with USB C. Also plenty fast enough so i don't understand the complaining about the chip set.

      It is expensive but very much worth it is a very good phone the most sustainable phone in the world. So worth the price because also good and very long software support and 5 years warranty. Also you can send back your old phone so they will recycle the phone for you.

      After all this phone is recommendable I am happy with it.

        It would be great to see its results in the new battery life test

              justasmile, 03 Nov 2023bla bla bla... Stop defending shit. 8 years is over... morethe targeted audience that buy a FF don't switch phones every 3-5 years but they use it for at least 7 years and then look for another phone, period. Therefore it makes very much sense.

Yes, 700 does seem a lot, but its probably the realistic price for tech these days. The reason we get such cheap phones is due to questionable practices!!

                    Their 8-10 years of updates are most likely for just making money. With mid range specs like this, it cannot even last 8 years before starting to lag like hell.

Can you replace a broken screen with a new one with only a screwdriver? Can you replace any parts of those phones without having your phone locking you out because "those parts aren't original"? Can you get those parts for cheap? Does the phone have an unlocked bootloader which you can switch to one of the many distros there are out there? Can you do ANY of those things with the average phone? I don't think you can.

                              Stop defending shit.

                              8 years is overkill for a poorly-specced phone. People would basically switch phones in 3-5 years, not 8 years.

Making phones that only last 6 month in the low end and 3 years in the flagships. Even if it costs 700 dollars, this phone will still be faster 10 years down the line than those cheaper phones that you say are faster that will only last you 6 months or maybe a year if you're generous.
