no pt wasting money on this anymore
Vivo X90 series launch event tomorrow
Even if they don't announce a phablet this time, its only a matter of ~3 months before they do it
Yea, hopefully Xiaomi 13 ultra comes soon, looking to replace with a 7inch phone

Initial impressions:
  • MASSIVE size - the last time i saw a phone of similar size is probably Mate 20X ???? But i think this is definitely more handy than Mate 20X since this is curved screen
  • Very snappy OS - i think there was a revamp in the OS architecture after i stopped using iQoo 9 Pro???? It really feels very different from my experience with iQoo 9 Pro
  • Doesn't feel heavy - advertised at 216g / 221g but it really doesn't feel so.... maybe because of how they distribute the weight across the massive body
  • SD 8 Gen 1 concerns - this is probably the biggest question / concern everyone has.... i do feel abit of heat when multitasking to set up the phone.... but it seems to be dissipated quite quickly???? Will need more days to verify / test this
  • Battery life - Can't comment for now as i just received it today.... hopefully it doesn't disappoint
  • GMS issues / concerns - no issues here.... just sideload google playstore into it and login your google account and everything else will run by itself.... and you just have to download the rest of the google apps you need from google playstore
  • NFC payments / Google Pay - no issues for this as i've done a successful payment on 7-11's POS terminal

Push messages not an issue here:
1) Set the communication apps to autostart
2) Set the background power consumption of above apps to high background power usage
3) Download Google's Carrier Services from play store and do the same step 1 and 2 to this app
4) Download Push Notification Assistant from play store and do the same step 1 and 2 to this app
Thats all~

Is it recommended to buy this selling for 750. Can tell the one year user experience. How is the battery backup.

Just make sure you're getting a set with good battery health?
Other than that, be wary that Snapdragon 8 gen 1 is quite unstable and hot
If possible, i'll choose to wait for a successor to this model.... not sure if Vivo will make one
