    Unfortunately phone itself is not impressive especially from OS update standpoint

    I swear to god manufacturers do this on purpose so that they can point to the low volume of sales and claim “See! People don’t really want these features” when in reality they’ve just slapped a couple good features onto a completely dog shit device.

      Unfortunately phone itself is not impressive especially from OS update standpoint (only 2 year support for major Android versions).

      Companies with a smaller market share tend to do that (with Fairphone being the exception).

      Why spend resources to support devices for 5 years (or more) if you can keep selling newer phones and redirect your devs to work on the new phone. Its just capitalism 🤷‍♂️
