I've been using OnePlus 8 for the last couple of years and it is incomparable how worse the software gets with every update. And the problem is they won't let you NOT to update, so having NO update for this phone seems like a better option.

@alexkatz9047 10 ай бұрын
@AutoDaily596 mostly sharp edges of the case and generally slippery back. It's really awkward to hold without a case. Also the fingerprint scanner on the side is much better than the one under the screen. Zenfone was much better but there were issues with software and I generally preferred Samsung. I had to buy s23 again after numerous attempts and now I'm using it with the leather case which makes the phone really big and therefore i wouldn't say it's a good phone. But it's the best available phone in 2021-2023 I'm trying to go around the terrible design with skins now and the leather sticker did make it better. But basically it's a good phone that is very awkward to use. And yes, just in case, I have big hands but I never use my phone with 2 hands.

@@Soundwave857 Still, it'll get way longer software and service/repair support, the build will last longer, and the resale price will hold up better if anyone's considering reselling. Aside from that, zenfone 9 wins in battery life, cheaper price, and the build and software isn't something a skin with a little custom rom can't fix.
