PROS

  1. 50MP High-Res Main Camera: Delivers decent, sharp images in good lighting conditions.
  2. 5000 mAh Battery: Offers long-lasting battery life for all-day usage on a single charge.
  3. 22.5W Fast Charging: The 22.5W Huawei SuperCharge enables relatively quick battery top-ups.
  4. Trendy Design: Features a modern, boxy design with a star-effect, smudg-free back panel.
  5. Side-Mounted Fingerprint Sensor: Enables fast and convenient security unlocking.
  6. USB Type-C Port: Modern connectivity, replacing the dated micro-USB, for faster data transfer.
  7. Decent Daily Performance: Capable enough for smooth social media browsing and general, everyday use.
  8. 3.5mm Headphone Jack: Retains the convenience of using wired headphones without an adapter.
  9. 6GB RAM Variant Available: Provides decent multitasking capability (specifically in the Asia Pacific region).
  10. Storage Expandability: Features a microSD slot for expanding the 64GB onboard storage.

CONS

  1. No Native Google Services: Lacks preinstalled Google Play Store, making app downloading more complicated.
  2. Only HD+ Resolution: The 6.52-inch screen is limited to 720x1600 resolution, lacking sharp details.
  3. 60Hz Refresh Rate: No high refresh rate, resulting in a standard, less smooth scrolling experience.
  4. No 5G Connectivity: The device is limited to 4G LTE, making it less future-proof.
  5. Weak 5MP Selfie Camera: Produces mediocre, low-detail results for selfies.
  6. Outdated Android Base: Runs on older software (EMUI 12, likely based on Android 11 or 12).
  7. No Ultra-wide Lens: Triple camera setup includes macro/depth sensors, but misses the useful ultra-wide lens.
  8. Mediocre Processor: The unspecified octa-core chip (likely Helio P35/G37) struggles with heavy gaming.
  9. Plastic Build: The body is entirely plastic, which feels less premium than metal or glass rivals.
  10. High Price for Specs: Often feels overpriced compared to competitors with better specs in the same segment
