Just a nitpick, while 'brighter' belongs in objective Pros (as long as the minimum brightness is as dark or even darker than the last gen), 'bigger' isn't a Pro. People have different size preferences and we have spiralled so far beyond the smaller end of size preferences we're actually getting into 'too big for anyone' screens if we go much larger.
FFS, reduce the bezel and keep the screen the same damn size. I know some people love big screens but it is hardly 100% of customers.
I would add that I don't want a "premium feel". I choose to hold this in my hand for hours and I don't want it to be heavy. If I could have a modern mid-tier phone that was in a nexus 5x body I'd be so happy.
Cons: no chance of an unlocked bootloader in the US
I love how every screen supports hdr10+ nowadays but there is no content for it.
At least if at somepoint HDR content becomes widely available everybody will already have a compatible device to watch it
Yeah at 2030
No mention of headphone jack, no thanks.
They even removed sdcard expansion this generation. No way you get 3.5mm jack.
