Why spend $800 for this? Really? Really? Is there a point to spend $800 on a device that in a showroom or a friend's hand was not feeling ok and needing to charge four times per day?
Decent camera (would have been called world-class 2 years ago), battery charged once every 3 days, stock Android, 2 SIM card sockets, 64GB SD card, 5.x sized screen.
But there are still things the camera phone can't do: Longer range/landscape photos. Interesting to see which manufacturer is able to put a quality detachable lens on a cameraphone, or when Nikon/Canon put SIM cards and telephony in their already Android-enabled equipment.
- mustacheemperor 10y agoYou're spending at least $800 on any "flagship" phone, it just might be through your carrier contract. I agree, I often wonder why the hell this is supposed to be worth the money. It was not marketed as "not feeling ok and needing to charge four times per day," and as I recall it even ran great the first few months...Until the initial hardware warranties started running out, at which point my aux jack started disconnecting, the memory issues became apparent, etc...
