I'd lay odds you'd never get it that well centered if you were trying. Great footage though!

out of interest, how long have you had it and are you happy with it overall? Only every owned 2 smartphones(that is how long I keep them!)....and am thinking about going away from the main brands, for my next one.

I've has this phone about 2 years (from office Works) , the longest ive had any smartphone, had numerous I-phones and Samsungs including a so called robust samsung, this is by far the best ive had in that it can handle my misuse / abuse and longest battery life of them all . Just ordered another one exactly the same now obsolete model as i'm afraid the latest version may not be as rugged.

Great shot thanks. I have a oppo as well. I am to much of a tighwad to buy apples Did you see hyundai battery Kona do not park in side news?

On the bright side of that is "There’s no statistical evidence that shows electric vehicles catching on fire at a higher rate than gasoline-powered vehicles. There are over 200,000 gasoline-vehicle fires reported every year in the US alone."

I've had an Oppo A1601 for four years and it's great.
I bought mine in Yangon, before they were available here, for about $300. A friend bought four.
There are lots of models and specs.
Just think of it as a Chinese Samsung.
It gets auto updates and just does everything competently.
It's been dropped and scratched, but has never missed a beat. The battery is still working within specs too.
I might update soon and I'd certainly buy another one.

Was that a bit of wheel play just before it got hit lol

Cheers for that, will go that way with the next phone, the best one I had was the samsung s2, only gave it up after many years, as it was too old for updates and 4g. It has been downhill ever since!

I have an iPhone4.....not being a phone geek in any form , what difference does it make if its "only" 4g?
