The panel grants a 6.4-inches AMOLED screen, so the color and contrast would pop out from the screen. It’s quite better than the regular IPS LCD. However, it didn’t have an advanced refresh rate, gorilla glass protection, or HDR support.

Memory and Internal

Under the hood, the Helio G85 chipset performs multitasking without any problem, but the processing power can feel a bit underwhelming. Though the processing power only reaches up to 2.0 GHz cloaking speed, with this setup, you can easily play smooth settings games. But on the other hand, you can’t play the game at full potential.

The ultra-wide camera quality feels mediocre, but it does the work and provides wide-angle photos, while the macro photos detailing is average. In terms of video recording, the phone can only record up to 1080p with no video stabilization software support.

Battery and Others
