-I haven't found a way to change the default app icons, but it doesn't bother me that much with all the other apps I end up having.
-the camera app is plenty good for general use. I don't use it for social media or anything, I use mine for work for taking pics of machinery and I use it to take pics of my kids and stuff and it's plenty good for that. I can't say how much tinkering it let's you do, someone else will have to give more detail
-Battery life is plenty good for me. I have a pixel 6, and I go to bed with it at like 45-60% most days. I'm sure the newer phones are a bit better, but can't say for sure
-I wish I could give more detail on the sandboxed apps, I use a few apps that use google play services and they work well, bit idk how it works behind the scenes
-honestly it just works like your phones OS should, it's really quite good
I wanted to know if the icons color is based on wallpaper or it's black and you can't change it. Not sure if I'll keep the default launcher anyway
I'm not looking for professional picture quality so if it works good, that's great!
Still thinking if 7/7 pro or 8 (no white so probably no)
Organic map is a cool project but the fact it misses a lot of places near me is something I don't like, I need it for work 🥲
Not foss but if you need good maps and a ton of features look into locus maps. I really like it for hiking as you can save offline maps and with brouter you also have offline routing.
For now, it looks like it it has some features I'll never use, like: forecast or other specific data but I have to try it before saying anything about it
