A Snapdragon Elite phone with giant 7000 mAh Silicon Carbon battery, 100 W charging, 144 Hz refresh rate and even a 3.5 mm jack. All of it is let down by the fact that it’s promised only one major OS upgrade.

    You mean the circle below the cameras? That is not a button, this phone has an active cooling system, yes you heard it right. The “button looking” thing is the fan’s protective grill, and the blue “ring” is the built-in RGB lights inside shinning through the gap for air to flow through. There is another set of openings on the side of the phone that gives another opening for air to flow through.

    Because of active cooling this phone has no IP rating at all. Based on benchmarks and reviews I’ve seen so far they managed to allow the GPU to have nearly no thermal throttling, with the active cooling system. However, disappointingly, it does throttle the CPU a LOT still.
