It was fine if you kept it in a case. That protects from the errant touch events I mentioned in another comment here, as well as making it so I don't have to look at the back cover.
Maybe unrelated, I've had the phone for probably two years (it supposedly came out two years ago as well - didn't think I bought a brand new phone but I guess I did). Recently (past month or so), it's started rebooting at random throughout the day. I'd do a factory reset if I didn't dread the thought of dealing with all of my 2FA stuff.
