Top-notch performance and butter smooth experience

+ Camera setup is probably the one reason to get it

+ Finally zoom capabilities using Cinematic Video mode

+ USB Type-C opens up so much possibilities

+ Battery is definitely not disappointing for my usage

+ The curved edges definitely feel so much nicer to hold

+ You can now set the default camera lens to load every time you fire up the camera

+ Customizable Action button and we all love customizability

Boring design. Can't differentiate easily with the previous generation
- The heat is rather significant at least before iOS 17.0.3
- Not digging the "Contact Poster" and "Name Drop" for how it works
- External storage mounting methods (or supported FS) need to be improved
