display

4500 nits peak, 144Hz AMOLEDThe 4500-nit brightness and 144Hz refresh make text and scrolling sharp in direct sunlight and quick enough for games, though daily scrolling needs only 60Hz.

performance

Snapdragon 7 Gen 3, Adreno 720This chipset handles mid-range gaming (PUBG Mobile, Genshin Impact at medium settings) and everyday multitasking without lag, but not at maximum detail.

battery

6000 mAh, roughly 1.5 days light useWith typical mixed use (messaging, social media, calls), you will likely reach a second day before needing to charge; heavy gaming cuts that to a single day.

charging

80W wired, roughly 30 to 45 minutes fullFrom empty to full takes around half an hour over USB-C, which is standard for this price; the 7.5W reverse wired is too slow to rely on for another phone.

camera

50MP main, f/1.8, 1/1.95 sensorThe wide aperture and large sensor gather enough light for daytime and moderately dim indoor shots; a 2MP depth lens is present but adds little real value.

durability

IP64, water splashes onlyThis rating blocks dust and handles accidental splashes, but it is not waterproof and will fail if submerged or caught in rain.
