How's the phone temperature in general. Do you notice it to be more warm/hot compared to your previous phones?

For watching videos, surfing the web, and doing most phone things it doesn't get warm at all, and that's with the fan (and 90% just there because it looks badass liquid cooling) turned off. The phone has a processor that can put out some heat, but regular phone stuff just uses such a small amount of it's maximum that it doesn't get the least bit warm.
It will get warm when speed charging (the fan and liquid cooler will automatically kick in when doing the speed charging) but not anything I'd feel like calling hot.
It will also get warm when playing more in demand games. Like I've been playing red Dead redemption on it with the highest settings. I have the options selected to turn on the fan and liquid cooling when in game mode, but it doesn't go beyond warm or make my hands sweat.
I haven't tried any games more taxing than rdr. I'll have to install genshin impact or something to see.
Should definitely keep a camera roll of Tienamen Square for the Chinese spies to scrape.
Lol. At this point I'd bet they're scraping info from all the non Chinese phones. Besides, I'm more worried about my own government spying on me and violating my rights than China's government.
I've only ever seen them on Swappa, but they seem cool.
I wouldn't trust any third party sales so soon. They've been a bit back ordered since release. Took me about a month to get mine. It's a gaming centric phone but I don't even do a bunch of phone gaming. It ticked a lot of my wants in a phone. Huge battery, fast charging, headphone jack, a 1 TB drive, low cost than other flagship phones, and an IR blaster. What I don't like is they lock their bootloader and don't promise more than 2 android version updates.

Well that's a major letdown.
Yes. But I figured that even if it was unlocked, there would be low odds of a good custom rom going on it that could still run the fan and liquid cooler and lights on the thing. Still definitely sucks.
Yerh. It sounds like it could be amazing with a custom OS.
