What reviewers say

Reviewers praise the speed, adaptable software, screen and improved battery life, with good daytime camera results. Low-light photos fall behind the best rivals, and losing the headphone socket is a common criticism. TechAdvisor and Android Central find the in-screen fingerprint reader slower or less consistent than a conventional sensor, while Expert Reviews finds it effective.
