Pros and Cons
On the plus side, you get a sharp 2.5K display, impressive quad-speaker audio, excellent battery life, and expandable storage. The build quality feels good for the segment too. On the downside, the display has some uneven backlighting and noticeable contrast shift at angles. Charging is also quite slow at 18W, taking around three hours to fully charge that big battery. The front camera was also downgraded to 5MP from 8MP on prior models.
