display
1080p, 90Hz, 800 nitsThe 6.5-inch AMOLED screen is usable in direct sunlight and scrolling feels smooth, though the 1080p resolution means fine text will be slightly softer than on 1440p rivals.
performance
MediaTek Dimensity 6100+, 8-core 2.2GHzThis chipset handles everyday apps, social media, and light gaming without lag, but demanding titles at high settings will require lowered graphics.
battery
5000mAh, roughly 6 to 7 hours screen-onA full day of moderate use is realistic; heavy users will need a midday charge.
charging
25W USB Power Delivery, roughly 50 to 65 minutesA full top-up takes close to an hour, which is slower than flagship standards but acceptable for a mid-range device.
storage
128GB UFS, microSD slot up to 1TBBase storage is tight for heavy video shooters or gamers; the microSD slot lets you expand for media and apps.
connectivity
5G and LTE across multiple bandsThe phone supports most regional networks globally and connects to both sub-6GHz 5G and older LTE frequencies.
