What reviewers say

Tech Advisor and Notebookcheck praise the bright display, everyday performance and battery endurance, but find the cameras limited and dislike ads in system apps. Notebookcheck considers the build premium, while Tech Advisor finds the design dated. Notebookcheck also notes slow Wi-Fi transfers and limited performance in demanding games.
