Good value for money, I recommend it.

It makes no sense to repeat TTX. I have enough of everything. I have not overheated, as many have complained. But I don't play games. Gets hotter when charging wirelessly.
The specifics of Samsung (applications, shell / immediately replaced with Nova Launcher /, organization of settings) - here as you like. I would prefer a bare Android and this hardware.
The protruding camera module always infuriates, but there are simply no options, and you can’t write it down as a minus.
I would write down the fingerprint scanner on the screen as a plus, but many do not like it - taste.

There is no SD slot. And that's great. Firstly, there is already memory here, and secondly, it only creates the illusion of the possibility of "memory expansion". SD work much slower, often fall off, often die (and I'm not talking about noname). And then people complain that the phone is buggy.

I wanted modern hardware, wireless charging (it’s convenient in the car), a large screen, moisture protection, a good camera. Received.

Summary: A well-packaged phone at an appropriate price. But you always want cheaper.

Pros

Great camera. Sometimes twists with processing, but overall very good. Great screen. Packed with almost all currently relevant options and technologies.

Cons

First. Too heavy. They were given this glass from behind. And with a cover it's also thick. This is the biggest downside for me. Second. NFC-module - in the center of the back. It is very inconvenient to hold when paying, especially when it is heavy. Here I miss the old phone, in which the module was on the top edge. Next is the nitpicking. The buttons on the side are too tight and clicky. I would like more control in the camera. Including a primitive choice of resolution for photos. Exinus, in my opinion, still lags sometimes. But so, light. Not at all like previous versions. With its potential power, this is not clear. In my opinion, they were too smart with the scheduler.
