The phone software is as important as the hardware.

The update to android 12 made several phones, including mine, very instable. I blame Google that 4GB went from plenty enough to barely enough to not crash the phone in a single update. Wtf is Google doing ?

I believe that since the companies headquarters are in Europe they can't have the same gain margin as companies in Asia so they're gonna sell crap specs / bad sensors at higher prices, although the phone spec isn't that bad for a 2020 phone but still it's a bit more expensive than it's worth at 290€. Them having a stock android ROM isn't because they care about the user but because they don't need a lot of devs like with a custom ROM. But apparently, It seems from what you said and the shocking comments on gsm arena that they had absolutely none .
