What reviewers say
Reviews praise the smaller flat-screen design, main and telephoto cameras and battery life, while finding the ultra wide camera weaker. Digital Camera World and TechPP see improved software but still find unwanted apps and limited performance for heavy tasks. Portrait results differ; Amateur Photographer finds unnatural faces and poor outlines, whereas the other two like the camera experience and portrait options.
