PROS

  1. Stunning 44MP Selfie Camera: Features a high-resolution front camera with Eye Autofocus for sharp, detailed selfies.
  2. Sleek & Premium Design: Exceptionally thin (approx 7.4mm) and lightweight, making it very comfortable to hold.
  3. Vibrant AMOLED Display: Features a bright and crisp 6.44-inch FHD+ AMOLED screen with HDR10 support.
  4. Excellent Matte Glass Finish: The back panel uses AG Matte Glass that looks premium and resists fingerprints well.
  5. Fast 33W Charging: The 33W FlashCharge technology quickly refuels the battery, reaching near full charge in about an hour.
  6. Good Rear Camera Performance: The 64MP main sensor captures high-quality, detailed photos in daylight.
  7. Ample Storage/RAM: Comes with 8GB RAM and 128GB internal storage as standard, allowing smooth multitasking.
  8. Dedicated MicroSD Slot: Supports storage expansion up to 1TB without sacrificing a SIM slot.
  9. Decent Day-to-Day Performance: The Snapdragon 730G (2021 model) offers reliable, lag-free performance for daily tasks.
  10. 3.5mm Headphone Jack: Retains the traditional headphone jack, which is rare in slim, premium-looking phones.

CONS

  1. Dated 60Hz Refresh Rate: Stuck with a 60Hz screen, lacking the 90Hz/120Hz refresh rates common in this price segment.
  2. Modest 4,000mAh Battery: The battery capacity is small by modern standards, leading to average, not-quite-all-day battery life.
  3. Older Processor: The Snapdragon 730G/720G is decent but considered underpowered compared to competitors offering 5G chips.
  4. Plastic Frame: Despite the glass back, the frame is made of plastic, slightly reducing the premium feel.
  5. Average Low-Light Photography: Night shots can be noisy and often require tripod mode to get good results.
  6. Mono Speaker Output: Features only a single bottom-firing speaker rather than a stereo setup.
  7. Bloatware and FunTouch OS: Comes with pre-installed third-party apps and some unwanted, spammy notifications.
  8. Overpriced at Launch: Often considered overpriced for the specs provided, facing stiff competition from better-equipped devices.
  9. No High-End Features: Lacks competitive features like faster display refresh rates or wireless charging.
  10. Slow Under-Display Fingerprint: The optical scanner is accurate but generally considered slower than competitors.
