I've recently been looking for a new phone, this is the first one that seems to strike a reasonable balance between features and (assumed) price. On a OP 6t right now, and the ones that came after didn't seem very good.
OTOH, my 6t with LineageOS runs perfectly (except for the camera from time to time).
I like the design, reminds me a lot of the Pixel 2 / 3. Curious however what SoC they will be using. I don't have high hopes however, since they would have stated it if it was good.
