no stereo speakers ☠️
There are a few criticisms I have for this phone (should've had a 1.5K display imo), but I will just say this: That back design is super clean! I love the smallness of the camera array, it reminds me of phone cameras from 2018. And the color shift effect is simple yet just enough to stop it from looking boring. They don't design backs like this anymore.
And also 3.5mm jack and microSD does this phone justice.
jgblanco88, 12 Jun 2024This is not a bad product bro. Just overpriced. Like many recent motorola phonesNot overpriced bro. Compare with honor 200 with same chipset. You get 3,5 jack and micro sd slot. Very rare features in todays flagship.
I warn everyone getting a bit too excited about the chipset. It's a 7 gen 3 which is a great midrange chip, but not 7 plus gen 3, which is actually a flagship chip disguised as midranger, in case that's what you were expecting from this phone.
Either way, it's one of the top 3 purchases in a smart, or rather dumbphone world dominated by garbages, especially when in a few months it's going to cost less than £450. But Xperia 5V 256gb can be imported for a little over £550, so it's a tough choice. Cannot guarantee if an imported Xperia 5V will have satisfactory network coverage though.
Overall, it's a spark of hope to have a phone with decent chipset having microSD card and headphone jack at the same time that's not a Sony and hence within most people's reach. It's been a long time since there's been something wholesome like this in smart, or rather dumbphone world. I'm eager to see a full review very soon.

Htc U11+ was much better designed phone than 2 xl that google choose. But anyway, all the other smartphones will be dead for me as soon as Htc releases Snapdragon 8Gen4/5 chipset phone. I just can't wait for Htc to make a come back for proper flagship level entry specs. Their software, camera and sound were amaing. I loved my U12+ :)

Buy this phone to support HTC. We should have good manufacturers instead of greedy ones like apple and samsung that purposely give you 128gb storage to then sell you 256gb for 200€ extra or leaving charger out of box and call moving the cameras 0,2 inches down an innovation, or spying on you and having ads on operating system like Xiaomi.

You are one of the main spammers in this website for such features and now this is a bad product. Go cry me a river.
Anonymous, 12 Jun 2024Priced more correctly than iphones and Xiaomisi'd rather this be maybe 350-400 something tbh
S I R E, 12 Jun 2024A product is not good simply because worse exists, the Redmi K70 Pro is an order of magnitudes... moreSure, you're right, but Redmi K70 Pro doesn't sell in my country...while HTC does.
HTC really nailed it. Bit concerned about curved screen, maybe the 4600 mAh battery but otherwise, wow! Sony has a competition!
Finally a worthy upgrade from Motorola G100.
ThatOneWeabo, 12 Jun 2024good phone, priced wrong.Priced more correctly than iphones and Xiaomis

Hardware is good as hell ..including jack and SD card support in midrange segment is defiantly amazing..,Chipset is no doubt great ! But what about Software policy? that's matter the second apart from hardware
This costs way too much for a 7 Gen 3 when the Poco F5 exists for 400 with an 8s Gen 3 and way better software support.
Phones like this existing is is only going to strengthen the mass resolve against 'legacy' features (headphone port, notification LED, SD card slot which admittedly isn't nearly as useful because they constantly die), and nobody should be supporting HTC for using them as the sole selling point of this phone.
