What even counts as old? Technically even the S23 Ultra is "old" and that will also obviously get more software updates than this. Not everyone wants iOS, or even One UI tho.

And not to mention iPhone and Pixel, those are just way ahead.
Finally, the battery life on this one is a beast and full screen 💕😍

Phone will still be useful for years if I want to keep it for years, just like the previous (android 7.1 when current was the 13)

Right after it:
"If you badly want these specs at about the same price, opt for an older flagship instead."
You managed to contradict yourself in the very same comment of yours, that's actually amazing. So basically what you've just said is: "if software updates are important for you, get an older phone", see how you aren't making any sense?
From Chinese reviews the rear cameras seem really good on this, probably the best of any phone in this price category. The ultrawide in particular is top class and is using the same sensor as the main camera on the Redmi k70 and k70 pro. Basically the ultrawide is almost on par with the main camera. I think it's also a good choice to have an 18mm ultrawide when the main camera is 35mm. Looking forward to the review
Xperia Z5 backside on steroids 💪😎
Paying 700 euros for flagship specs, but with the poor 1 software upgrade and 2 years of security updates by ZTE is a joke. Unless you don't mind installing custom ROM, this phone is not for you, nor is it for almost everyone else.
If you badly want these specs at about the same price, opt for an older flagship instead. (the only tradeoff is the 1-2 year older chipset but who cares)
