What reviewers say

Reviewers praise the aluminium build, bright 144 Hz display, clean software and Glyph Matrix, and find the main and telephoto cameras good in daylight. Inconsistent camera results are the common criticism; GSMArena found battery life excellent where TechRadar found it shorter than expected, and GSMArena questioned the premium over the cheaper Phone (4a).
