What reviewers say

TechRadar and Android Central praise the sharp, well-calibrated screen, fast everyday and gaming performance, reliable battery life and rapid charging. Both see the auxiliary cameras as an improvement over cheaper POCO models, while placing overall photography below leading flagships. Android Central is more impressed by the main camera and finds the weight well balanced; TechRadar finds the main camera ordinary for the price and the design heavy. Both flag software clutter, with Android Central also concerned about slow update delivery.
