What reviewers say

TechAdvisor and TechRadar praise the slim, textured design, battery endurance and quick charging, while finding demanding games and prolonged camera use less smooth. TechRadar was happier with the speakers, low-light cameras and clean software; TechAdvisor found weak bass, declining low-light detail and unwanted preinstalled apps. Both liked its everyday performance and display.
