To recap
This might be one of the best bang-for-your-buck phones we’ve seen. There’s fast-charging, a long-lasting battery, a great display, and powerful internals. We’re not keen on the side-mounted fingerprint sensor, but the plastic frame hasn’t bothered us, nor has the absence of 5G. However, the camera results are inconsistent, which feels at odds with that being the phone’s big sell.
