It’s actually compact, cheap, has oled, in-screen fingerprint reader, stock Android, NFC, Snapdragon SOC, supports GSI and has unlockable bootloader. Seems like a perfect phone (well except nonexpandable storage), so what’s the catch?

    The catch is probably Motorola’s lackluster software update commitment (I think it’s around 2 years. It’s already been updated once, so you only have 1 big OS update left.) and the terrible chipset. The Snapdragon 695 isn’t that much better than the Snapdragon 732G and the Snapdragon 732G phone I had was constantly dropping frames in the simplest animations even 2 years ago. This is not a good buy.
