73/100Oct 30, 2026

Mid-range phone with record battery life and a good AMOLED screen, but cut corners on chip, RAM, camera, speakers and display brightness versus its predecessor.

  • Very long battery life, over 21 hours in Wi-Fi test
  • Large 120 Hz AMOLED with accurate colors
  • microSD slot and IR blaster included
  • Solid build quality
  • Long software support promised
  • Sluggish performance on Snapdragon 4 Gen 4
  • Limited RAM, 6 GB
  • High power consumption for its battery size
  • Ultra-wide camera and stereo speakers removed
  • Ads in software and only 12-month warranty

A solid mid-range phone for buyers who prioritise battery endurance, though it regresses on chip, RAM, camera and audio versus its predecessor and carries heavy ads.

  • Very large battery with strong endurance
  • Good screen colour accuracy in Standard profile
  • Stable performance in stress tests
  • Bright manual display, over 680 nits
  • Larger 6.99-inch screen, plastic build keeps it lighter than feared
  • Snapdragon 4 Gen 4 is a downgrade from previous generation
  • Ultra-wide camera removed and lower sensor resolution
  • Single speaker instead of stereo
  • Heavy, thicker body than predecessor
  • Intrusive preinstalled apps and ads in interface

Verdicts, pros and cons are short summaries in our words of each publisher's review; scores are as the publisher gave them. Specs are taken from the reviews' spec boxes — where they differ, we show the value most of them give; price is the US launch price of the base model. Read the originals for the full picture.
