As someone whos grew up on iPhones this feels reasonable for a high end product…

    Reasonable is $900. Just because apple made a $2000 phone doesn't mean everyone does.

    I had a Nexus 4 for $300 way back when, and that was mighty premium enough. We're all getting screwed and there is no savior. The water has been boiling for over a decade.

    My current phone cost $500 and it's more than powerful & capable enough. Android sucks to use but other than that I have no idea why anyone would get anything more expensive unless they need some really good camera.

    Android does suck but is superior to iOS. If only linux was realistic on a phone.

    I am intrigued for sure, I want to try them out but none of my drawer phones suit it or postmarket.

    There a few limitations, banking, camera, car projection. But they are getting better.

    Is it? It costs more than any (bar-style) iPhone. This is priced less than the Oppo X9 Ultra and Vivo X300 Ultra, similarly to the Samsung Galaxy S26 Ultra and the Xiaomi 17 Ultra, and priced more than the Apple iPhone 18 Pro Max and Google Pixel 11 Pro XL –the problem is the subsect of people who are happy paying this price and cares about privacy are abysmally minute.
