Display — panel quality holds up in long-run threads, with no recurring reports of burn-in, tint shift or brightness loss at this stage of ownership.

Battery — battery behaviour is the theme owners return to most often after 3 months: capacity loss is described as gradual rather than sudden, and daily endurance still lands where it did at launch.

Charging — charging speed keeps its reputation over time and is repeatedly cited as the feature owners would miss most if they switched.

Gaming — extended gaming is where owners notice ageing first, with longer sessions reported as less consistent than at launch.

Software — software is where dissatisfaction concentrates: update timing and interface clutter are raised repeatedly by long-term owners.

Camera — camera consistency remains contested, especially in low light where owners report results they cannot reliably reproduce.
