What reviewers say

Tech Advisor and TechRadar praise the performance, sharp display and battery endurance, but criticise preinstalled apps and the weaker ultrawide camera. Tech Advisor is happier with the main camera; TechRadar finds photography less competitive. Both reach two days with lighter use, although Tech Advisor expected more from the large battery.
