I have it - packaging was top notch and very cool. Didn't have time to do any pics because I had to grab it off my own porch and run back to work.
I have been fiddling with it a bit desk side.
I've transferred the SIM from my Google Fi LGV35ThinQ phone. Voice, data working fine. The Google Fi application itself where I get to see my family's data usage - that one app doesn't work so much yet. It refuses to properly register. I'll have to fiddle with that more later - maybe on the Google Fi website.
Typing is at least as good as it was on my Gemini. Maybe even a bit better.
Battery life - I've gone through 40% of the battery inside of 4 hours - but then I've been abusing it quite a bit and haven't charged it fully yet. Just using it on the charge it had when it came out of the box 4 hours ago.
I was able to get Blackberry UEM running on it fine - which means this device will be able to be used for corporate work.
All in all? Top notch device. It is HEAVY compared to my old LG phone - but I have a Gemini too so I knew what that would be about.
When closed it -looks- like the worlds biggest bezzel smart phone. That small screen on the back looks like it has GIANT bezels.
Opening and closing the device has a bit more resistance to it and 'snaps' a bit harder than the Gemini did.
Fingerprint reader works! Having this is a big thing for many of us.
There is a lot to this phone. One of the first things I had to do is to lower the volume and screen brightness to tolerable levels AND turn off keyboard key sounds AND keyboard keys vibration. I'm not sure who would want those on - the keys themselves give plenty of tactile and audible feedback.
