    I cant believe all the anger and criticism for 200 dollars. It is like you all are just programmed to bad mouth everything that comes out.

    That is why we have such shitty phone lineups every year in the U.S. Yall cant appreciate innovation.

          A phone with screws on the back is literally the ugliest thing I've seen in my whole life. I'd rather be homeless, on the run, or in jail than be seen with that poor excuse of a phone.

            Every reviewer is basically praising it, since it gives a lot for the price. Here in the comments is the only place I've seen backslash lol. Like a little sad echo chamber.

                The tragedy of a gimmiky. Why, oh why? All of that only for a removable back plate , and the battery is sealed. I actually was against this roumor when some guys talked about it, but whell is true apparently... and yeah makes no sense whatsoever, if i want a color i buy the color i want, is that simple. And by the way this is no way sustainable, more like wastefull. Funny cause fairphone, that is actually a true sustainable device was way to criticized for beeing sustainable, and this, device that is non-sustainable is called sustainable? Oh well.

                    Sam N8 808 owner, 08 Jul 2024This comment section is a striking example what happens, wh... moreThis comment section, and not only this one, is striking reassamblance of trolls and wannabe techies that know one thing CPU, and when that is the latest and the bla bla, then they complain about money and 3.5 headphones jack. But all of them have no idea why this devices actually work, and what faster cpu actually means...

                      While the specs aren't to die for, I think this phone is cool. Whether you interpret that "cool factor" as a gimmick is your own subjective opinion. But to me, it's cool and therefore gets my recommendation. Spec heads should look away.

                        Decent overall but the cons are really hurting it. An unimpressive speaker makes the good display weaker, no OIS is just bad in general and no.NFC is disappointing too, since it means you can't pay with your phone.

                          This comment section is a striking example what happens, when the industry ignores customers to satisfy governments and other needs.

                          3.5mm, the one easily replaced by an adaptor, is missed here.
                          Removable battery, hopes got up seeing the screws, but its missed.
                          If it didn't have microSD, we'd miss it too, but it has it somehow.
                          NFC is missed, even though Indians use it rarely. I don't atleast.

                          Customers always win.

                            Why didn't they put a headphone jack, nfc, and a more easily removable battery here? You already went and sacrificed good ingress protection, you have no excuse. Idk why you wouldn't just save the extra money and get a nothing phone 2a if you wanted one of their phones. Maybe their second try at this will be better lol.

                                afronoia, 08 Jul 2024"We wouldn't exactly call its control layout trad... moreI miss those days when volume buttons were on the left side.

                                  "We wouldn't exactly call its control layout traditional, mostly since the volume rocker is on the left side of the phone, opposite the power button on the right side."

                                  Almost if not all early Android phones put the volume rocker & power button on the opposite sides, so that's the "traditional" way. This started to change only 6-7 years ago. How old is this reviewer?
