performance
Dimensity 700, Mali-G57, 4-6GB RAMHandles everyday tasks and light gaming, but demanding 3D games will require lower settings or frame drops.
display
90Hz LCD, 400 nits, 270 ppiScrolling feels smooth, but at 720p resolution on a 6.5-inch screen, text and icons are noticeably pixelated up close.
battery
5000mAh, about 1.5 days light useModerate use (video, messaging, browsing) will drain the battery by evening; heavy users will charge daily.
charging
15W wired, roughly 2 hours to fullA full recharge takes most of a morning or afternoon, so don't plan on quick top-ups before you leave.
camera
50MP main with f/1.8, 1080p videoWell-lit daytime photos look sharp; low-light shots will be grainy, and video is capped at standard definition.
durability
Gorilla Glass 3, plastic back, 195gThe front is reasonably scratch-resistant, but the plastic back and frame are prone to dents; this is not a rugged phone.
connectivity
5G Sub-6, Wi-Fi 5, USB 2.05G support future-proofs the connection in areas with coverage, but slower USB 2.0 (not 3.0) means file transfers are sluggish.
