I bought this phone nearly a year ago, after owning an iPhone 8 Plus for several years. I can't stress enough how much I loved switching to Android with this phone. Phonecalls are crystal clear and loud when necessary, the screen brightness is absolutely insane and a blessing under the Greek sun (which used to cook my poor little iphone), internal storage rocks and the RAM does even more. You can expand the RAM by using part of the internal storage, which I found crazy impressive for the price of the phone.
The photos attached were taken with this very phone, and ALSO edited with the phone's software in the regular photo gallery editing tools! Very impressive tools offered, and very nifty once you toggle around the settings a little bit.
One thing I sometimes do not like is the stabilization giving up on me when I zoom in too close, but again, that's fair.
Games run like a dream, I virtually never have to worry about downloading a game and/or having to pay for extra storage (looking at you, apple...).
Battery life is CRAZY!!!!!!! This is coming from an iPhone user that was never, in fact, glued to a charger. I never had any battery and was usually never reachable, despite having my phone on battery saving mode all day long. I use the phone Very (and I mean VERY) heavily and end up having to plug it back into the charger when I wake up in the morning, after scrolling on tiktok for an unreasonable amount of time.
Fast charger makes it get to 100% before I'm even done making my coffee. Yes, the charger does look like a brick. Yes, it also looks like it could pass as a weapon and the cable is comically thick. It has proven to be very durable in spite of this.
Lastly, one thing that somewhat bothered me when I was thinking of making the switch was the aesthetics and the UI. This is practically so similar to iOS that it hardly matters. It combined the good parts of iOS that I liked, with all the nifty android features I wanted. Very easy to get used to and also very very fast and pretty.
If I were rich and VFM meant nothing to me I'd buy a ridiculous touchscreen flip phone. As that is not the case, I bought an Oppo Reno10 Pro. Can't recommend it enough!!!!
P.S.: I'm pleased to say that the purple colorway is indeed ridiculously glossy in real life, and I would say even more gorgeous. Also surprisingly scratch-resistant so far... It's also a very unique shade of purple that compliments nearly all colors for cases.
Please do note, however, that cases for this phone have been a bit of a nightmare to find for me. I hope you have more luck. There are a few sites that carry very pretty ones but shipping takes a while.
