Editorial verdict
Grounded in published specifications
Summary verdict: Six years of security patches is the longest commitment of any phone in this catalogue below flagship pricing, and combined with the Snapdragon 7+ Gen 3 it makes a strong case as the phone to keep. The unibody aluminium construction is unusual and genuinely feels different from the glass sandwich norm.

Holding up so far
Had this most of a year now, so this is not an unboxing opinion. Snapdragon 7+ Gen 3 with LPDDR5X and UFS 3.1. Still mildly irritated by one thing: IP65 rather than IP68. Known trade-off rather than a fault, though, and I would buy it again.

Fine, once I adjusted my expectations
Leading with the problem, because it is what I would have wanted to read: IP65 rather than IP68. No telephoto camera. Neither is hidden — both are listed on the page — but they matter more in daily use than they look on a spec sheet. I have kept it, for one reason: 4 Android upgrades and 6 years of security patches. That still outweighs the rest, but only just.

Wrong product for my situation
Genuinely my own fault. Posting so somebody else does not repeat it. The listing says who should avoid this: Anyone needing expandable storage or a telephoto lens — neither is present. That was my situation and I ordered anyway. It does what it says on the page — it just was not the thing I needed.

Matched my use exactly
The page describes who this is for, and it described me: Buyers who intend to keep a phone five years and want it supported that whole time. On that basis it has been the right call. 4 Android upgrades and 6 years of security patches.
