Solid build quality. The camera sticks out a bit but I am not fussed. The phone is almost featherlight relative to the nexus 6 I used immediately prior. However, when you stick a stigen gunmetal cover onto it, the weight almost balances out. And I recommend you do.
Very fast processor(I do plan on buying the google pixel as well to test the new snapdragon processor but that’s for later) - the i10 processors works like a charm. I have close to 80+ apps loaded and several running in the background. No phone overheating issues and neither is the response/speed sluggish in any manner.
From what I have seen, the battery is very good. It’s now 4 hours since a full charge and I am down to 90% despite some more than average usage. Not sure if this will hold but early impressions are promising.
Call quality is excellent. I spoke to my wife(same city), mother(another city) and friend(another country) all the time switching between speaker and headset. No break in quality so yes, a big thumbs up for that.
Haven’t tested the camera yet so no comment.
As a little crib, Navigation takes some getting used to if you’ve been a stock android user. It’s the simple things for example, the ability to correct a misspelt word by just clicking against that word at the wrong spot and being able to rectify it. Immensely useful. The iPhone doesn’t have it. A few other niggles like volume buttons on the other side etc but they are more design than functional. Got to move with the change folks.
