Well. At least you can say it’s different. I don’t know that I’d want a phone with virtually no water resistance.

The display is still gargantuan.

I guess it seems like a good deal for the price, if you’re in the $200 market. I don’t know that there’s anything better.

I think when it comes to this sort of modularity, Motorola had the right idea with their pogo pin magnetic attachments.

2 years of updates + 3 years of extended security updates

It’s 2 years of Android updates AND 3 years of security updates. This means 3 years of support total, which is pretty bad.

Honestly if they made an accessory that turned that little knob into a fidget spinner of kinds I would 100% pony up for it. As it stands now I can see myself screwing and unscrewing that thing and then losing it somewhere

seems like a cool phone, but its made by nothing so you either dont install a custom rom and get a potentially insecure experience, or install a custom rom and lose the cool branding of the phone
