I did not regret the purchase, everything is fine.

Good telephone.
Personally, after a phone with 5.5 "16: 9, the screen width is a bit lacking for me, in the iPhone X it is literally 1-2 mm wider, but psychologically it is already noticeably more spacious. And just right in height.
And don’t put the application of the site you are currently on on it - it eats up a huge amount of battery in the background for some reason on this particular phone.

Pros

It lies well in the hand, does not weigh down the pocket. Camera: The photos are gorgeous - the algorithms, the dynamic range, the percentage of successful photos, the quality of night shots and, of course, 8x zoom are very pleasing - no one else has this yet. I started taking a lot of pictures. It's nice to see pictures on the big screen. The camera opens quickly: starting to get the phone out of your pocket, you can prepare the camera by pressing the lock button twice, immediately take a photo (by the volume button) and put the phone back, and all this in three or four seconds. Video in this device is usually scolded, but as for me, it’s normal, although I shoot a little video. 1080p 240fps (1/8x) slow motion video with more detail than iPhone X Sound: very pleasant for the phone, does not make you want to rush for headphones or substitute an edge to your ear. There are lows and a good stereo panorama Tactile feedback is a complete thrill, typing and editing texts is very pleasant. Performance - everything is smooth, fast, does not freeze The smoothness of the screen, with TrueTone, the white balance is better than on the iPhone (they turn yellow). After scrolling to 90Hz, all phones with 60Hz screens are rejected as aliens from the last century. But between 90 and 120Hz I don’t see any difference even with a direct comparison. Pleasant appearance, even without a cover in the white version is not slippery (but I wear it in a cover). Bright flashlight with warm light Some features I see for the first time: Squeeze the device to snooze the alarm (or turn on the flashlight, with an additional program) In hotspot mode, you can distribute Wi-Fi through Wi-Fi! Killer feature as for me. The phone also turns on very quickly, "like Windows on ssd" - I don’t know how important this is, but as a fact.

Cons

The battery is not great, but not critical. From 3 to 6.5 hours of screen time depending on the usage scenario, 4 hours on average. Always on Display eats up the battery very much, abandoned in favor of the notification LED emulator. Gestures are noticeably worse than iPhone ones, the back gesture prevents the side menus of some applications like Gmail from being pulled out, annoying. And the classic 3-button navigation eats up useful space on the screen. Face ID is a little worse than iPhone, in some situations it may not be recognized for a long time. Indoors, the white balance in the camera goes into a strong yellow if something bright white or blue appears in the frame. Screen: When switching from 60 <> 90 Hz (occurs when touched with a finger), the screen slightly changes brightness and colors, unpleasantly. We have to force the use of 90Hz all the time, which affects the battery. In 90Hz mode, the dark gray background turns green, I made a comparison with the iPhone X. But all of the above is noticeable only in the dark. In the standard launcher, the bottom search bar opens exclusively the Google App with news from big brother, tracking and other joys. An alternative is the Lawnchair launcher, which sometimes glitches. The price in 2022 is inadequate, no guarantee
