What reviewers say
Reviewers praise the slim design, bright screen, main and portrait cameras, smooth performance and quick charging. Both find the ultrawide camera less convincing and miss an official water-resistance rating; Gadgets360 finds the portrait light occasionally useful, while IndianExpress sees little practical benefit.
