+ Strengths

  • Super AMOLED-дисплей обладает флагманской контрастностью
  • Есть объектив со сверхширокоугольной съемкой
  • Корпус защищен от влаги по стандарту IP54
  • Производитель обещает 6 лет поддержки программного обеспечения
  • Может похвастаться хорошей автономностью в играх и звонках

− Things to consider

  • Совершенно не подходит для фото или тем более для видеосъемки
  • Экран нельзя назвать ярким, а также он лишен поддержки HDR
  • Отсутствует стереозвук – смартфон оснащен одним динамиком
  • В повседневном использовании устройство подвисает и тормозит
  • Гибридный лоток усложняет использование двух SIM-карт, если необходимо установить microSD
