The ZuPick verdict

3.0out of 5

SkipBest at battery, weakest at display.

This phone focuses heavily on battery life and basic everyday usability, but it gives up too much in display quality and camera ability for this price. It fits a narrow buyer who wants endurance first and can accept clear compromises elsewhere.

Based on specs, expert reviews and owner discussions.

Performance2.9

This setup is fine for calls, social apps, streaming and regular multitasking. With up to 8 GB RAM, UFS 2.2 storage and 5G, it covers the basics well enough, but it does not look especially strong for demanding games or heavier long-term use.

Camera2.0

The camera hardware is modest for this budget. The 50 MP main camera should do alright in daylight, but the 8 MP selfie camera, lack of advanced zoom hardware and 1080p30 video limit how much this phone can do if photography matters to you.

Display2.0

The 6.9-inch screen gives you plenty of space, and 120 Hz keeps motion smooth. But the LCD panel and 720x1600 resolution are clear weak points at this price, so the viewing experience is well behind the better options available.

Battery4.3

Battery life is the main attraction here. The 7900 mAh cell is unusually large and 45W charging is respectable, making this a strong pick for people who want very long endurance over outright charging speed.

Value3.3

The value story is mixed. You do get standout battery capacity, 5G and useful extras like IP64, but the display and camera are weaker than what many buyers should expect around ₹24,000.

Pros & cons

What’s good

Huge battery life

The 7900 mAh battery is far larger than what most phones in this price range offer. It is built for very long days of use and can comfortably stretch well beyond a single day.

Smooth 120 Hz display

The 120 Hz screen makes scrolling and everyday navigation feel fluid. It helps the phone feel more responsive in regular use, even if the panel itself is not a premium one.

IP64 protection

IP64 splash resistance adds some peace of mind for daily use. It is a useful durability extra that not every rival includes.

Expandable storage support

The 128 GB storage can be expanded by up to 2 TB with a card. That is handy if you keep lots of offline media, photos or large files.

What’s not

HD+ LCD screen

At ₹23,999, a 720x1600 LCD is a major compromise. It looks less sharp than Full HD rivals, and it also misses the deeper contrast and richer blacks buyers usually expect here.

Weak camera setup

The 50 MP main camera is basic for this price, and the rest of the setup adds very little. Video tops out at 1080p30, so it falls behind stronger camera phones in both flexibility and output.

Average charging speed

45W charging is decent, but it is not fast enough to stand out when paired with such a massive battery. Refills will still take a while compared with quicker rivals.

Entry-level power

With 6 GB or 8 GB RAM and UFS 2.2 storage, everyday use should be fine, but this is not shaped like a performance-focused phone. Heavy gaming and demanding multitasking are not its strong suit.
