- It's one of my favorite phones I've used in months, and it's tempting me away from my iPhone.
- I love the design, the display, the camera, and - surprisingly enough - the interface.

For the past five years, I've been aboard the iPhone train.
I switched from Android to iPhone shortly after graduating from college, purchasing a gold iPhone 5S that served me well for about 2.5 years. I later upgraded to an iPhone 6S, and these days I'm using an iPhone X.
Lately, however, I've been experiencing a bit of iPhone fatigue. Sure, there's still a lot to love about iPhones and Apple products as a whole. But sometime last year - perhaps around the time I had a rough experience with the Apple repair process - I started to feel like I was ready to at least look around for a device outside the Apple ecosystem.
I'm lucky enough to try a lot of different devices, and have raved about my love of the Google Pixel 2 and Pixel 3 in the past.
Still, I haven't been able to find "the one" - the device that would make me give up iMessage, FaceTime, the App Store, regular updates, beautiful, high-end design, and the various other iPhone perks I've come to love and depend on.
