The ZuPick verdict

3.8out of 5

BuyBest at performance, weakest at battery.

This is a strong combination of display quality, speed, camera versatility and charging technology for ₹21,290. Battery endurance is the main compromise and prevents it from being an easy recommendation for every buyer.

Based on specs, expert reviews and owner discussions.

Performance4.3

It scores about 969,000 on AnTuTu, comfortably above what most phones at this price manage. The Snapdragon 8 Gen 1, 8 GB of RAM, UFS 3.1 storage and 5G deliver fast multitasking and strong gaming performance.

Camera3.7

OIS, 8K recording, a 32 MP front camera and a genuine telephoto lens make this a versatile camera setup. The 50 MP main camera's f/1.9 aperture is less advantageous in difficult lighting than wider-aperture alternatives.

Display4.1

The curved AMOLED panel, 1500-nit peak brightness and 1440x3200 resolution deliver excellent sharpness and visibility. Its ordinary 120 Hz refresh rate keeps it just below the very best displays around this price.

Battery2.8

The modest 4600 mAh capacity and 9-hour-51-minute tested endurance limit time away from a charger. The excellent 120 W charging system offsets this by reaching full charge in about 18 minutes.

Value4.2

At ₹21,290, the 8 GB and 256 GB configuration delivers excellent hardware for the money. Its high-resolution display, strong performance, telephoto camera and 120 W charging outweigh the limited endurance.

Pros & cons

What’s good

Sharp curved AMOLED display

The 1440x3200 curved AMOLED screen is sharper than the Full HD panels most rivals use. Peak brightness of 1500 nits supports outdoor readability, while 120 Hz keeps motion smooth.

Very fast everyday performance

The Snapdragon 8 Gen 1 delivers quick app launches, fluid multitasking and strong gaming performance. The 8 GB configuration also has fast UFS 3.1 storage.

Exceptionally quick charging

The 120 W system can fully charge the phone in about 18 minutes. Wireless and reverse wireless charging add useful flexibility.

Versatile triple camera system

The three 50 MP rear cameras cover standard, ultra-wide and telephoto shooting. OIS steadies the main camera, while 8K video and a 32 MP selfie camera broaden its creative options.

Useful connectivity extras

NFC supports contactless payments and quick accessory pairing. Wi-Fi 6 and 5G provide fast wireless connectivity.

What’s not

Weak tested battery endurance

The 4600 mAh battery lasted 9 hours 51 minutes in testing, which trails stronger endurance-focused alternatives. Heavy gaming or camera use may require a recharge during the day.

Heavy for prolonged use

At 205 grams, the phone can feel tiring during long gaming or video sessions. The curved screen also benefits from a protective case for a more secure grip.
