display

8.0-inch, 189 ppi LCDPixel density at this size is stretched; text and icons are readable at arm's length, but fine detail is noticeably softer than on modern phones at the same distance.

performance

MT8169A, hexa-core 2.0 GHzHandles basic browsing, Alexa commands, and video playback smoothly; 3D games and heavy multitasking will stall noticeably.

battery

Up to 13 hours screen-onWith moderate use (streaming, browsing, reading), one charge easily covers a full day and then some.

storage

32GB or 64GB, eMMC 5.1, microSDXC slotThe 32GB model leaves roughly 20GB free after system software; a microSD card (sold separately) is nearly essential for books, videos, or apps beyond the base install.

camera

5MP rear, 2MP front, 1080p videoGood enough for quick document scans and Alexa video calls, but photos are soft and have no zoom or low-light control; not a tool for photography.

connectivity

Wi-Fi ac, Bluetooth 5.2, no cellularWorks only on Wi-Fi networks; you cannot use it on a commute or away from home without a hotspot.
