GoSolo Read / what it means7 takeaways
battery
6000mAh, about 2 days light useAt this capacity with the Helio G36 efficiency, you can expect roughly 2 days of light browsing and messaging, but expect to charge every evening with moderate to heavy daily use.
charging
18W wired, roughly 90 minutesAt 18W on a 6000mAh cell, getting to full takes approximately 90 minutes from empty, making it slow enough that you may not want to skip a charging session if you're heading out.
display
90Hz IPS, 500 nits peak, 267 ppiThe 90Hz refresh feels noticeably smoother than 60Hz when scrolling and swiping, the 500-nit peak means readable in bright sun with brightness cranked, and 267 ppi (720p on 6.6 inches) leaves individual pixels visible at close reading distance on small text.
performance
Helio G36, 4GB RAM, light gaming onlyThis 12nm octa-core chip with PowerVR GE8320 GPU handles everyday apps smoothly but struggles with heavy games (PUBG, Genshin Impact); expect 30–40 fps low-to-medium settings on less demanding titles like Chess.com or Subway Surfers.
camera
50MP f/1.9, 1080p@30fps videoThe wide f/1.9 aperture collects decent light indoors thanks to an auxiliary lens, but 1080p video caps your recording quality, and the 8MP selfie is standard for basic video calls and social media shots.
storage
64GB or 128GB, microSDXC expandableStorage ships in two tiers (both with 4GB RAM), and the dedicated microSDXC slot lets you add hundreds of GBs for media without eating internal space for apps.
connectivity
LTE, dual-SIM, Wi-Fi 5 (ac)LTE on multiple bands covers most networks in emerging markets, dual Nano-SIM lets you run two carriers at once, and Wi-Fi 5 ac is adequate for most home broadband, though not cutting-edge.
