Like, are you making this phone or are you not?

And, you know, this I feel like putting the number in it and they fulfilled the promise so far of like, we will update this phone.

We will put better stuff in it.

We will correct our mistakes quickly instead of like, oh, we made an SE, but the feature set isn't quite right.

I'll see you in three years when we try to fix it.

So that's great.

It does have an A19 in it with no cores disabled, which is cool.

The GPU is four core instead of six, which would be full.

So they're saving a lot on the GPUs there.

It gets the C1X modem, but it does not get the N1, which is interesting.

It just has Wi-Fi 6, not even 6E, and it has Bluetooth 5.3.

They do mention stuff about in their comparison list of features like next generation portraits with focus and depth control.

I think that's just a software change.

Because it's as compared to the 16E, which said portrait mode with depth control.

But this says next generation portraits.

I think it's a software thing, but I'm not entirely sure.

It might be A19 powered with like the image processor.

Speaking of screens, this does have the ceramic shield to front durability thing, which does, I think, make a difference in scratching.

So it's good that it gets that even if the screen itself is not much better.

Yeah.
