I bought 1 VII and returned it after a week of use. Even though I'm using a mirrorless camera for photos, I still needed the camera on my phone to be good enough to make utility "point and shoot" photos of some docs, tables and etc. and... it's really bad (or how marketing team calls it - a camera for PROs), especially in low light - image is not sharp, white balance is way off.
There is a headphone jack, but sound quality is equal to my cheap 10$ chinese dongle..
Also it has basically stock android and only 2 major OS updates..
If they cared, they could ship it with some emulated PSP/Vita games at least..
SD card, screen without notches and true stereo speaker (although sound is not great either), build quality - it's all good, but not 1500$ worth it. For like 600$ I'd buy it, but otherwise it's nowhere near the modern flagships..
