What reviewers say

Both reviews praise value, smooth everyday performance and dependable battery life. YugaTech likes the design and daylight photos, but finds video stabilisation weak and dislikes MIUI's advertising. Notebookcheck highlights connectivity and stamina while criticising camera dynamic range and night shots. YugaTech is more positive about the improvement from night mode.
