What reviewers say

Notebookcheck and GSMArena praised the bright 6.7-inch OLED screen, slim build and long battery life. Both found the cameras less impressive in low light and noted the lack of water resistance. GSMArena judged the update over the A70 worthwhile for its faster chip and camera range, while Notebookcheck found the improvement modest.
