>The only thing I'm not a big fan of is the charging. Non-removable battery, already 8 or so years old, obviously the phone needs power to work. So I'm a bit worried about the fire hazard.

My family (n=3) owned the Huawei P20 (acquired at the same time in the same promo, perhaps the same batch?). This product line seems to have serious issues with battery swelling. Each phone had spicy pillows at some point within 2.5 years of ownership. Even outside the warranty period, Huawei was willing to replace the battery for free at their cost at their contracted Toronto repair centre. Each of the repaired phones had their spicy pillows return within 6-9 months. I strongly suspect Huawei was avoiding doing a voluntary recall.
