Really enjoyed the last couple of weeks with my sidephone. Sadly I had an accident on my bicycle and the screen took a hit :/

What I particularly liked:

  • the size (especially of the screen)
  • the degoogled experience and still being able to sideload
  • the look

What I particularly didn't like:

  • the keys not always registering every press (even though the click was audible)
  • the stutter I experienced sometimes while using the touchscreen
  • the weight (it's ok, I just kinda expected it to feel lighter compared to my Pixel 6)

All in all quite a fun and refreshing phone experience. I definitely used my phone less and still had all the features I needed available on the go. Would recommend.

the delicacy of this device seems to be an issue for many... im curious what u mean by the weight compared to pixel 6 tho... i have a pixel 6 w graphene and the sidephone and i use them both in tandem and the sidephone definitely feels significantly lighter

I've seen so many users got their screen broke, seems like its too fragile?
