I agree, to some level at least. It is not good enough in its current state as my daily driver, but i do believe the hardware is good. Not €700 good (more like 300 good, if we don't talk about 'fair' products). If the software was better, i would've used it as my daily driver.

I don't care about the fingerprintreader and camera for example (but i do understand that it is a dealbreaker for some). I think the camera is actually pretty good (again, not €700 good, might be somewhat software related). I think the vibrationmotor and battery are the things that are the worst on the FP5.

I just wished they focused on software and better new parts for once, instead of earsbuds, new versions of phones etc. They can improve what is already there, for the most part...

I wished i tried out the FP4 first, because for now it is 700 not very well spent. Hope that can change in the future.

Well, that might go a little far, but they need to step up their game when it comes to software: that's where they currently lacking. Too many bugs, bad optimization and unpolished designs. That's why mine is now my secondary device, which i probably want to use to try out custom ROMs. Hope they find a way to improve their software team (better and more developers, perhaps more colabs with Nixos, Graphene etc.)

Agreed. Up to ~8 were good times. After that, meh.

This is probably the least exciting Android "update" to date, for me at least. These are basically all just options that could've been added with regular updates. Charging to 80% is nice tho. Hate the new, Apple-like, default bluetooth setting (thank god that you can turn that off, although it doesn't look good for the future...)

I don't have any experience with SOG, but when it comes to specs, it seems very decent! D2 is a great steel in that pricerange.

Unless you are buying one of these to throw in your trunk after opening a package or whatever (even then i would not get one of these), i would:

Skip any Smith&Wesson, especially at that pricepoint. They are not the same Smith&Wesson that make guns etc. The brand has been aquired (well actually just using their name) by Taylor Brands, which is not really known for quality products (a typical how-to-make-as-much-money-possible-without-spending-to-much company).

Gerber has some great ones i believe (the fixed Strongarm for example), but i would skip this brand too in this pricerange.

With these options, the CRKT or Buck would be most trustworthy, but i will still recommend spending 10-20 bucks more and get something like a Spyderco Tenacious, Buck Spitfire, Civivi Baklash/Elementum/etc or anything in that range, which aren't the best, but a whole lot better then anything you suggested.

Poor updates (policy), overpriced for the specs. I mean, 400-500 for a phone with a SD695 and 60hrz? Come on... Such a shame, because they are the only ones with a screen without a punchhole/camera cutout...

I guess Settings App -> System -> Feedback. But i think this is an OS feature request (like Jet in the other comment said), which is being handled by the manufacturer of the device you're using instead of the actual AOSP. I'm not sure where you can leave feedback for AOSP, if that's possible at all. Hope someone else can add that here.
