Agree. The back glass was not completely practical, but mine survived plenty of drops, and the whole thing had a nice weight/density to it, and a very premium feel.

The closest thing I have felt to its just solid feel is my essential phone. don't get me wrong - it is not a good phone, but the build quality is unbelievable.

Yup. I loved the almost analog feel to it, very industrial. Much like a Pagani Hypercar
