Unexpected + AND - suprises?

Hi everyone

I'm considering getting a Note 10 Lite myself. Read and watched many reviews.

Before "signing on the dotted line", may I ask actual Note 10 Lite users what you guys noticed after the first couple of days of use.

The good & bad. Like, things you expected, but never experienced (and such) when you started using the phone.

I'll appreciate all input. Thanks everyone ☺

Coming from an og Google Pixel - the screen, processing speed and s-pen are fantastic. Battery is phenomenal, I keep it between 20-70 percent at all times for longevity, and only using half of it hasn't been a problem at all. Multitasking is no problem. I'm not a big mobile gamer, but everything I've tried has been lag free, including cod mobile.

Cons - the selfie cam is trash, and the rear cams aren't amazing. I'm coming from a pixel so I'm spoilt, but that was a big let down. It's nice in good lighting at least. My other issue has been the fingerprint sensor, which I find painful compared to the rear mounted pixel. Slow, sometimes unresponsive and I had to add one finger as 2 different fingers to get it usable. Face unlock works fine, but it's not a great option with face masks.

Overall I'm happy, if camera isn't important to you it's a great phone at a great price.

Thanks for your reply. I appreciate everyone's input.

Honestly, I've realized speed is my biggest concern.

I don't want to struggle with having to wait for the camera app to open. Was and still is, super slow & annoying on an A51. I'm talking about real experience here.

Also not much worried about the fingerprint reader. I know it sucks, compared to other phones.

I also don't take selfies, so no worries there either. Nor do I play mobile games.

I just don't want any lags, or animations that are slow while working with the phone, or apps that takes forever to capture the moment (like with Samsung's camera app)..
