The restrictions on apk access over the past 10 years have already been an annoying pita. Many of the best power user apks have had to gut themselves over their original functionality, all while obtaining root access over your owned devices has become harder or next to impossible.
Because it’s priced higher than it should be, it has a slightly lower performance chip, a much lower capacity battery, and older battery tech that will degrade faster and charges slower. The best redmagic out specs the samsungs in every way but picture quality and does it for $500 less.

Let them keep those. I hereby declare that if I don’t own the thing, I ain’t buying it. So no root, no $$$.
Yeah, but I still really like my micro SD card slot and pen on my note 20 ultra. Dunno what I’ll do when I have to replace it.
The pen is the only reason I have stuck with Samsung. If they made a Pixel with a smart pen that I could put GrapheneOS on I’d buy it in a second.
Yeah. Id pick up a redmi 10+ pro if it had a pen and sacrifice away the SD card slot. Id at least have a huge battery and awesome cooling.
If you would get that why wouldn’t you just get a Galaxy S2X Ultra?
I meant redmagic 10 pro plus. My bad.
As for the samsungs:

Sure, but the Redmagic doesn’t have things the Samsung does - one of which seems to be a dealbreaker for you, the built in stylus.
Yeah, but I’m not paying an extra $500 for a stylus. Either way I think I’ll have at least another year out of this thing.
