So far yea. Battery life has been great, phone is very snappy, display is beautiful, sounds great. The only things I don’t like are that visual voicemail doesn’t seem to work (issue with T-Mobile moreso than the phone), wish the IP rating was at least 67 (it’s 54 I believe), and I wish either the fingerprint area was alittle higher on the display or just replaced with a rear fingerprint scanner. Other than that tho it’s been great.
On the software side, I’m surprised to see nothing is so proactive. When I first got the phone I posted on their discord about how we should have the ability to hide apps in the app drawer and group them into folders, and they’ve already announced hiding apps is coming in a later update. No update on folders tho. It’s very clean, and there are some nice features like native app locking and cloning apps.
I bought the phone 2 to test drive it for 30 days, but was leaning on returning it and waiting for the pixel 8. I’ve been slowly leaning towards keeping this tho. The overall experience is just so stable and smooth.
