What reviewers say

Reviewers praise the bright OLED screen, responsive performance and long battery life, but find the ultrawide camera and lack of optical zoom limiting. Their low-light and software impressions differ; Frandroid gets useful night photos but dislikes MIUI’s clutter, whereas Notebookcheck finds low-light results weak and its later MIUI 12 software well optimised.
