Review of the Oppo Find X3 Pro

TL;DR:

Pros -

* Good build quality
* Great screen
* Fast CPU
* Waterproof
* Few annoying ads in the system (unlike samsung/huawei)

Cons -

* Rattling top speaker
* Poor battery life

* Selfie camera tends to give faces a weird hue
* Battery life is not great

​

I've had the Find X3 Pro for around a week now, imported directly from China. Prior to this device, I have owned and used:

Nostalgia...

I’m interested in hearing everyone’s favorite android that they ever owned.

The first android I purchased for myself was a Nexus 6P and, to this day, it is my favorite device that I’ve ever owned. I’ve had LG’s, Samsung, Apple, OnePlus, Pixel’s..... nothing compares to the cold metal of the 6P and the stock UI.

What’s the android phone you’re most nostalgic for?...

DISCUSSION When do you think 32-bit apps will be totally abandoned on Android?

Considering how Google has made it clear that they won't show 32-bit apps on the Play Store when accessed via a 64-bit compatible device post August 2021 and the way ARM has announced that post 2022 all their CPUs will be 64-bit only (no backward compatibility for 32bit apps). When do you think 32-bit apps would become a history on android?...

Android needs native battery health information an a way to limit maximum charge to reduce wear.

I hope future version of andriod does bring this battery health.
