I think that Android, being based on Google's own software, is still far behind the Samsung and OnePlus versions, which are modified versions of Android, each with its own features, many of them practical and also more aesthetically pleasing. And that's what's missing in a phone of this range, with the prices it's launched at. I think Google needs more ideas to make it a true top-of-the-range device.

It's a good phone if you get it at a good price because it offers a completely clean and pure Android experience, and it receives a lot of updates. The camera is excellent and the screen looks great, although the main drawback is that the automatic brightness adjustment is very unintuitive, so I always have to adjust it manually. One of the things I really don't like is the sound; it's poorly regulated. I often have to adjust the volume keys to hear a WhatsApp audio message or video correctly. Also, the placement of the screen lock button, unlike how other Android phones usually have it, takes some getting used to. Otherwise, it's a great phone, although in terms of processing power it might fall a little short compared to competitors in the same price range.

View answers - AutoGood phone but with limited hardware
The battery can last a day if you don't use it for demanding tasks, but sometimes it doesn't, and the hardware on those phones is very limited because it overheats and the FPS drops.
Pros- Photos that look very sharp thanks to AI
Cons- Hardware and battery

I got it on sale for 700€, but it's not worth more. I have slight slowdowns when multitasking, the frame rate drops while filming in 4k 60 for more than 20 minutes. The OS is really empty, and I find that a bit disappointing, there aren't many customization options or anything else, it's really very basic. It doesn't have many AI options either for a phone that's selling for it. And the screen is way too cold in its colorimetry, so I have no other choice but to leave the reading mode activated all the time
Pros- The brightness
- The speakers
- The photos
- The battery, even under intensive use
- Haptic feedback
- The design of the bone
Cons- The performances
- The video
- The options
- Personalization
- Poor AI functions
