What reviewers say

Reviewers praise the bright display, long battery life and versatile cameras, while finding the large camera module awkward and extreme zoom less useful. Performance and software judgements differ, with TechRadar finding smooth gaming and manageable preinstalled apps, while Tech Advisor encounters app stutters and a clunky interface. Tech Advisor also finds the ultrawide weaker in dim light.
