yeah the screen is very small but that’s kinda the point for my use case. I didn’t want all the limitations of a dumbphone (i.e. I wanted banking apps, gps, useful browser) but I wanted to add friction to my phone use to encourage me to use it less.
battery life is great, lasts me almost 2 days without a charge and will typically go from almost dead to almost full if I plug it in while driving to work. part of the battery life being so good is that I use it less and keep it in grayscale 99% of the time I figure though.
camera is great, it’s 48MP the same as an iPhone 14 Pro. the pictures don’t look great on the device because of the tiny screen but when I look at them on my computer or the pixel 6 I still use at home they look great.
speaker is pretty awful, it’s fine for calls but music, fuhgeddaboudit! I have a Bluetooth clip on speaker that’s great and I don’t really watch videos on it so non-issue, for me at least.
screen res hasn’t bothered me but again that might just be use-case. most of what I do is reading text and it’s fine for that esp with high contrast on, looks ugly but again that’s friction and I want that.

Yeah, sounds like they improved quite a bit, I might consider it, thanks! Still, lack of 5G means not so future proof
