TLDR: it's a spec bump for the processor and RAM. One question I personally had is does that mean the motherboard is backward compatible with the og FP6?

It's a nice phone but I'm at a point where 350-400 is the most I'm willing to pay for a phone.

I'm still mad I had to pay almost $200 for the one I have now! The two phones I had before this one I think cost around $120.

But you get software updates for years!

The software updates are kind of hit or miss though. You usually end up on an outdated version of Android near the end and the upstream kernel goes EoL.
