My opinion

Edited: Aug 30, 2024, 4:35 PM

Phone owned for less than a year

I am happy with phone. But overall I expected more. At least SD card slot.
Otherwise, camera is good, good picture's quality. The big problem is overheating when phone is on charger. Specially if you charge your phone with wireless charger.
