If you've read other reviews on the Axon 7, you're likely aware that the device is not without faults. The lack of on-screen buttons means that I have to rely on muscle memory to find the closely-spaced capacitive buttons when using my phone in the dark. The lock screen hides notifications behind a bell icon in order to show off its (admittedly beautiful) gallery of lock screen backgrounds. The camera has pretty poor low-light performance. And the phone did take quite a bit of tweaking on my part to achieve a near-stock Android experience. I've left out some other issues, but only because they were so minor that I can't remember what they were to begin with.
But if you can work past the dicey software and the poor low-light performance of the camera, what you're left with is a truly premium product. Its internals can be found in most flagship phones: a QHD AMOLED display with Gorilla Glass 4, a Snapdragon 820 SoC, 4 GB of RAM, 64 GB of storage, and microSD/dual SIM support. Its 3250 mAh battery often has over 50% charge left after an entire day. On the audio side, it includes a very decent DAC and AMP, and two front-facing speakers that absolutely destroy the ones on most other flagship phones.
Once I worked around the software issues, this phone feels, looks, and performs just like an $800 phone. After using it for a month, I don't think I have a good reason to pay more than $400 for my next flagship phone.
