GoSolo Read / what it means6 takeaways
performance
Snapdragon 460, 3GB RAMHandles everyday apps and light games smoothly, but will stutter on demanding titles or heavy multitasking.
battery
5000mAh, roughly 1.5 days light useWith moderate screen time and typical apps, you'll reach evening; heavy video or gaming cuts that to a single day.
display
6.5-inch, 270ppi, 720p LCDText and icons are sharp enough for normal reading; the 720p resolution means video and photos don't look as detailed as newer phones at this size.
camera
13MP main, 1080p videoDaylight photos are acceptable for social media; low light is grainy, and you cannot shoot 4K.
charging
10W wired, roughly 2 to 3 hours full chargeSlow by modern standards; plan a long wait if the battery runs flat.
connectivity
LTE only, no 5G4G works fine in most cities, but you will not benefit from faster 5G networks if available.
