What reviewers say

Reviewers praise the sturdy body, bright 120 Hz screen, responsive performance and battery life, while finding the secondary cameras limited. TechRadar reports shutter lag and faulty processing of moving subjects at digital 2× zoom. Speaker opinions differ; TechRadar likes their fullness, whereas Notebookcheck finds music thin and lacking bass.
