The phone itself is amazing. Very responsive, very lightweight compared to my old S21. In all the ways you'd want a phone to be an improvement it pretty much hits those--camera is great, speakers fantastic and the transfer process was relatively smooth and easy. However, figuring out how to disable things so they don't operate or operate closer to my old phone is always annoying. I don't want to learn about 4 new apps a week and figuring out to disable that so I didn't end up with games/apps I would never use was a pain. Same thing with some of the notifications. I get it, downloads and apps are how they make more money but I wish there was a "I just want the phone to be a phone" setting on new devices so I could plug and play the whole thing. I might pay extra for a device that worked in that way.
