For me, major upgrade from Xperia 1 IV. Suffered from terrible Snap8 Gen 1 chip and overheating.
Now can get signal in places previously die die also can't receive lol.
Features wise still getting the hang of it, Honor AI is quite helpful, Triple tab screen is crazy lol.
MagicOS is almost like iOS, so just have to get used to it.
Was deciding between all the China phone OS for so long until realizing V5 is launching
Steep price for phone, but am really satisfied so far.
Otherwise I'd probably holding a Find X8 Pro right now lol.
definitely a major upgrade, I used Xperia 1 IV as well. random overheating despite changing a few in settings just not to make it overheat.Now can get signal in places previously die die also can't receive lol.

its a great device, but it being brought down by its chipset and expensive AF price.
steep price but it do come with good warranty coverage tho

Better than I had expected, otherwise I would have traded in by now. And I'm coming from pixel and Samsung. I did research from reddits and hardwarezone forum on the pros and cons of magic OS.I checked out Reddit and HardwareZone to see what people were saying—the good and the bad—about Magic OS. YouTubers review were mostly very biased. Can't expect much from paid partnership.
Hopefully more apps are optimized for foldable viewings, which is no fault of android. Lazada and shopee look so messy and horrible in foldable mode, even after changing the aspect ratio.
And I would have preferred the biometric finger print scanner to be on the screen similar to pixel, not at the side frame.
i would say if honor decide to place biometric fingerprint scanner on the screen, it wont achieve the thin ratio that we are enjoying right now.Hopefully more apps are optimized for foldable viewings, which is no fault of android.

its a compromise that user have to take.
i wish more local seller bring in accesories for the v5, but most of the seller is located in China lol
