I have had the mobile phone for 1 year and it took me a while to write a review, but I was trying to understand why it was giving me overheating issues.
Let's start with the positives, which are many and expected for the price category.
Screen
One of the best panels in the flagship category. Excellent brightness, color accuracy. Viewing videos, games, photos, etc. is amazing.
Operating System
Coming from Android devices, it takes 2-3 months to get used to it. At first, you might curse it, but then the user experience compensates. Flawless integration with banks, POS, etc. The categorization of photos is much better on Android (on Huawei, where I was), but as I said, it's a matter of habit. The operating system is smooth and the transitions are excellent. Of course, there is no lag.
Battery
Don't look at the mAh. It doesn't matter. I use it heavily for work and entertainment, and it easily lasts a day. And I come from Huawei, which had reached a very high level in terms of battery management.
Cameras
The wide and telephoto lenses are excellent. Especially in pro-raw mode, they are hard to beat. Along with the ultra-wide lens, there is no difference in color between the cameras. I didn't expect that. All Android devices, as soon as you switch cameras, mess up the white balance. The only problem is the ultra-wide lens, which, although good, has a lot of noise in low light. Unacceptable in this area. The video quality is the best on the market, by far.
Processor
Of course, it's a beast. It doesn't lag anywhere. But there is one serious negative, which I will mention below.
Speaker
Not the loudest on the market, but very high quality. I haven't heard any other phone with such quality.
Negatives
Apart from the quality of the ultra-wide lens, it has a tremendous issue (at least in what I do) with overheating. For example, when I open OneDrive where I have stored files, within 4 minutes, the phone gets extremely hot and dims down the screen. I go for a run with Runkeeper. When the outside temperature is 30 degrees, it heats up and dims down the screen, so I can't even see it in the shade! The same problem occurs when taking photos or videos at the beach. UNACCEPTABLE temperature management for a phone of this price. That's why I gave it 3 stars. I took it to the service center to show them the problem, and they said they don't see any issue. I didn't expect Apple to have such issues with processor heat management.
