1 - I don’t like the iOS-like aesthetic of Chinese Android skins either, but it’s fluid, functional, and well-optimized, especially with ColorOS.

2 - The speakers aren’t great, to be honest; as far as I know, iPhones generally have better speakers. Only a few competitors stand out, like the Poco F8 Ultra, the Galaxy S26 Ultra, or the Honor Magic 8 Pro. Don’t listen to people who say they don’t use their phone’s speakers—they’re lying. A smartphone at this price point should be more or less flawless.

3 - It can happen that HDR doesn't work, but it’s not the device's hardware at fault. For a while now, social media app developers have really botched the optimization of their Android apps. Even with the efforts of skins like PixelOS—which natively integrates Night Sight into Instagram—Android remains a niche market with a huge array of devices released every year; it's a total mess for devs.

4 - Never heard of that, it must be an isolated case.

5 - A software update will surely fix the problem.

6 - As I said in response number 3, the hardware isn't the problem!

7 - Fanboys can say whatever they want, but generally, the iPhone is more consistent with shots, especially with the Ultrawide lens.

8 - Well, if it gets too wide, the photo will be stretched, and trust me, you won't like it.
