To recap
On the whole the Pro 7 feels like an “almost ready” phone. It has so much promise and so much potential, and yet silly little things like the tap-to-focus in the camera, and changing wallpapers don’t work. The fact we had to figure out how to install Play Services was another added bit of frustration added to the mix.
