Pros & cons
The 90 Hz display feels smoother than a basic 60 Hz panel when scrolling through apps and social media. Peak brightness of 840 nits also helps outdoors.
The 50 MP rear camera with autofocus and an f/1.8 lens is well set up for clear daylight photos. It is a solid camera setup for everyday family shots and documents.
The 5000 mAh battery is the standard sweet spot for this budget and should comfortably handle a full day of calls, messaging and video. 15W charging is usable for overnight or top-up charging.
Stereo speakers, a side fingerprint sensor, headphone jack and expandable storage make daily use easier. These are practical features buyers at this price will notice.
eMMC storage is slower than the faster storage used in better budget phones. App installs, updates and opening heavier apps can feel less snappy.
15W charging gets the job done, but it is not quick by current budget standards. A big top-up will take patience.
With 4 GB RAM and entry-level overall speed for this price, it is better suited to calling, chat, video and light apps. Heavier games and lots of multitasking will feel limited.
