What reviewers say

Notebookcheck and GSMArena praised the long battery life and smooth 90 Hz AMOLED screen but found its HD+ resolution limited sharpness. Notebookcheck found the display particularly dim outdoors and criticised slow storage and charging; GSMArena valued the stabilised main camera for the price.
