metal plate at the rear panel is very thin and get dented easily and can damage the battery inside.
happened with my phone but i opened the rear panel and straighted it up with some tools now its good as new

I have blue colour model. And it looks premium . The mobile is thin if we look at 5000mah battery . No manufacturing defects on body , perfectly smooth and feels good when we hold it in hand.The metal body is beautiful.

I can’t say that the glass is strong enough. Still got a scratch. Oleophobicity at height

Don't have complaints other than the glass. Already some minor scratches and chips on the glass which is noticable only from certain angles. Feels solid and premium in the hand.

This phone leaves a flagship class feel in the hand and pretty much tricks everyone into thinking it costs alot. It doesn't feel gross like most plastic phones. The black border around the display is a little annoying to look at though.
One of the better high quality feeling budget smartphones out of the other varieties because of the metal build. Very respectable design and quality from Honor.
High quality for the price range
Good feel in hand even though its slippeey
Metal unibody is looking awesome.
Good quality metal.
I'm amazed by this metal unibody design. I'm sure this is more durable than most phones out there.

Very good quality
Awesoem
Not bad, but black version has that matte black back, which easily scratches. Seems like screen doesn't have any kind of hardened glass
Not bad for a $200 CAD phone. I like the aluminum in the back and glass screen. Hate the plastic bands on top and the bottom though, easily scratched and don't look too nice. Also, the screen's not gorilla glass, just tempered glass which makes it a little more prone to scratching and breaking.
I'm going to put a tempered screen protector as soon as it arrives in the mail, the original plastic film it comes with will do until then.
Quite good as compared to others at this price. But The lack of gorilla Screen protection is tge main drawback. And secondly, the Charging port was so easily damaged..
Delicate, asthetic (gold and white version), precision finish adds a touch of quality. HOWEVER I was largely disappointed with how its software uses the hardware. My earlier moto g3 was far superior when it came to the software handling the hardware, especially the modem part, the modem in note 4 sucks when it comes to handling data. The octa core handling sure needs improvement. Xiaomi should spend more time in speeding up the core handling software to give its users a feel of the powerful ram and the usage of the 8 cores. If possible they should give the option for the users to use pure android or miui option.
MTK note 4. One piece billet case, lovely machining etc. Can't be beaten in this price range.

Soft screen glass
The overall build quality is ok. The only downside is the lack of gorilla glass. The hardened glass used on the Mi Note 2 scratches easily. Use of a screen protector is recommended.
I love the overall feel of the phone. It's very comfortable to hold in the hand, it's light as a feather. The metal sides feel premium, the glass display is a joy to use and look at while reading text.

Some good tempered glass should do the job

I have small male hands and even on the regular 4 it can be a stretch when going from top to bottom.
It's a great feel, even better than my 3a or the P3. I just wish I didn't have to have a thin clear glass case on it because it just takes a little away from it. But I simply can't afford to drop it and it break. It's a really nice device, even better than the iPhone 11 Pro which is larger and thicker.
Coming from the OnePlus 5 (which is a larger phone, about 10g lighter, thinner) the Pixel 4 feels much heavier and feels so thick..but i appreciate the small factor. Wish it had somehow rounded sides (not edge screen) and better weight distribution.
The matte white feels so good! So smooth and no fingerprints! Wish other manufacturers are offering this solution too!

Only complaint about build quality and aesthetics is that the Aura Glow back is such a fingerprint magnet. Like nothing I've been seen.
Here's my question: if Whitestone Dome can make a screen protector that collects virtually zero fingerprints, why can't Samsung use the same coating for their back glass?
Samsung is brand which makes great build quality phones with top notch materials (Eg: Display) which you can find in the market.
My aura white is premium build. Nice weight to it but does get tiring at times but something I can live with.
Feels much more premium than galaxy s models.
As for the finger prints, hardly any on the white but as for whitestone why cant they make a back glass cover?
No other device I have held in hand feels and looks as premium and well built as the note10+

Agreed! I was just thinking about how great the phone feels while resting on your pinky. Sounds super weird to say but the weight distribution is so we'll balanced and the flat bottom of the phone so smooth that I don't get the kind of pinky irritation and/or numbness I would get with other phones. I remember the iPhone XS Max being so heavy on my pinky it would cause discomfort after a while. I know this is the epitome of first world problems and even feels weird to say but I never heard any reviewer mentioning this tidbit.

Completely agree, quality build is really good. I just noticed how precise the side buttons are, for example the "click" on volume buttons feels really good.
This is a major point versus Huawei and other chinese brand devices that definitely feel like toys in comparison.
The phone is well balanced and very thin even a good case on it. Owing to it's a pretty much nonexistent bezel it spends 24x7 in a it's Bolt case.
With the right case it's pretty much a what the active phones should have been plus it can molt its skin if it's damaged.
It's pulled some descent G's in falls in the case and is none the worse for the tumbles.
In the case accidental touches just aren't an issue while still having full screen access. In the right case it has an open feel about it while still being well protected.
Using it without a case though is downright scary as it's a slippery bugger.
Water/dust sealing and buttons seem top notch.
The curve screen is perfect for One Handed Operation+ and now I'm wondering how I lived the savage life without it.
Plus it adds to the screen and overall phone strength in spite of what some think. No detectable frame flex.
A high performance laptop in my hand... too cool.
Build Q is excellent. This heavily used N10+ looks and feels identical to my new one.
Switches, jack, seams are all still tight as the new one. It's held up extremely well. No detectable display degradation of any kind. Only repair has been a replacement battery.
