TLDR: it's a spec bump for the processor and RAM. One question I personally had is does that mean the motherboard is backward compatible with the og FP6?

I respect it. But $650 is more than I'm willing to pay for a mobile device I'm guaranteed to drop numerous times.

I think I got my Pixel 4a for $300-400 years ago and it's still kicking ass. And I don't feel terrified when I drop it. Shave a couple hundo off this phone and I'll buy it.

It really depends on the phone quality. I don't know how this one will behave, but I have for example a phone just that was just a bit more expensive and almost every week hits the floor at least once. It's now 2 and half years old and there's only a few bumps in the corners.
