The Verge Editor-in-Chief Daniel Rubino noted, "While none of those may blow anyone away, it's the little things that matter for the user experience. We recently hard-reset one of our phones and having Wi-Fi available during the setup/out-of-box experience was tremendously helpful for restoring our phone's settings, so we're glad to see it there."
