What reviewers say

Reviewers praise the long battery life and smooth display for the price. Everyday performance is adequate, but demanding games, secondary cameras, the single speaker and slow charging disappoint. Tech Advisor found the fingerprint reader reliable, while Android Authority encountered inconsistent recognition.
