battery

5000mAh, roughly 1 full dayA 5000mAh cell with 10W charging means about 6 to 7 hours of screen-on time for moderate use, and topping up to full takes roughly 2 to 3 hours—aim to charge overnight.

charging

10W wired, 2–3 hours to fullAt 10W, you're looking at 2 to 3 hours from empty to full, so this is a phone you'll want plugged in when you're not using it rather than grabbed quickly before heading out.

display

6.5", 90Hz, 270ppi, TFT LCDThe 720p TFT at 270ppi is noticeably soft up close; 90Hz scrolling is smooth, but the screen dims in direct sunlight because TFT doesn't hit the nits needed for outdoor legibility.

performance

Snapdragon 480+ 5G, everyday appsThis mid-range processor handles browsing, messaging, and basic photos, but struggles with heavy games or multitasking; 4GB RAM (entry model) will feel cramped, 8GB is more livable.

camera

13MP main, f/1.8, 1080p videoThe 13MP f/1.8 sensor captures decent daylight shots and handles low light better than a smaller aperture would, but 1080p video at 30fps is strictly social-media grade, not video work.

connectivity

5G, Wi-Fi 5, Bluetooth 5.1, FM radio5G and Wi-Fi 5 (802.11ac) cover fast networks where available; Bluetooth 5.1 is solid for headsets and speakers, and the FM radio works if you have wired earbuds to use as antenna.
