While using features like, Photo, Live Focus, Video, Slow-mo, Super Slow-mo, Pro, Panorama and Night and Food, the camera produced good and sharp images. As the device captured detailed images in bright light, however, in low light photography, the images produced were not sharp.

The device offers video capability with 4K recording, hyper-lapse, slow-mo and super-steady modes. While recording videos, the device did produce some good videos.

Despite packing in a mega battery, the smartphone is just 8.9mm thick and weighs only 191 grams, making it lightweight and comfortable to grip.

While the right edge of the device has the volume rocker and power buttons, the left one hosts a dual-SIM slot.

The lower edge of the phone houses a 3.5mm headphone jack, primary microphone, USB Type-C port, and speaker.
