I absolutely love this phone. I swapped the black with a blue back and the black definitely wears nicer. The blue has scuffs on all four corners after a week. I still like the way it looks better though.

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.

OnePlus 8 is the perfect phoen for Custom ROMs. And it looks like it would fit your usage better.

Did you use a screen protector? Loving it without one curous as to your experience

I want an update: Have the bugs been fixed? Especially the caller screen and speakerphone that you mentioned about?

Great review!

Where to import it from. Any website(s) you can recommend?

Hi. About that fingerprint scanner + power button. Does it always unlock as soon as you touch it? Is there any option to change the behavior so that it unlocks when you 'click', or something else?

from where you get the case?

Sir. Where to buy??? Help plz

How much did it cost you bro ? I'm thinking of importing this from either Dubai or US. Liked this compact phone, but seems like Asus is trying to slowly stop selling any smartphones whatsoever.

Hi, I am having a problem with the Asus device. When I take a selfie with flash, it takes a long time, about 7 seconds, until the device takes a picture. Is there a solution?

Hey @TQNet, having used the phone for 3 months in India, did you face any issues with cellular connectivity/compatibility with Indian SIMs/networks? I've been pretty apprehensive about it so wanted to ask. Also - did you buy the phone from the US? Thanks!

The list of things I hate about my S22u is long and varied. Especially compared to the older OnePlus device it replaced. The only thing it seems to do correctly is in having a long battery life.

I mean the phone is still like 6 months old or something. Of course you can buy it in 2023. Hasn't even been discontinued yet, you don't even have to go to the resale market. It's like ask " would you still use the iPhone 14 in 2023."

What wrong with S23 ?

@alexkatz9047

9 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.

The screen size is too small. Made a mistake buying this for my mom. I think I might return this and get her the OnePlus 10 pro or 11 for the same price.
