What reviewers say

Reviewers liked the everyday performance, quad speakers, long software support and battery life, but found the LCD less appealing than competing displays and missed a fingerprint reader. TechAdvisor criticised value and camera quality; Notebookcheck considered the price fair and the cameras adequate for simple snapshots and QR codes, but found Wi-Fi speeds unstable. Their charging results differed: about 90 minutes in TechAdvisor’s test and more than two hours in Notebookcheck’s.
