performance

Kirin 9000E, Mali-G78 MP22Handles mid-range to demanding Android games (Genshin Impact, PUBG Mobile at medium settings) without consistent lag, though demanding 3D titles at high settings will see frame drops.

battery

4200 mAh, ~1 day light useWith mixed browsing and messaging, expect 18 to 22 hours; heavier screen time or gaming cuts that to 10 to 12 hours before needing a charge.

charging

40W wired and wirelessFrom 0 to 100 percent takes roughly 45 to 55 minutes over USB, or about an hour via wireless pad.

display

6.5", 90Hz OLED, 402 ppiScrolling is smooth at 90Hz refresh, colors are vibrant on the OLED panel, but at 402 ppi text remains sharp only at typical viewing distance; no Gorilla Glass specification listed.

camera

50MP main, 3x optical zoom, f/1.9Wide shots in daylight and portraits at f/1.9 aperture are strong; the 3x telephoto handles mid-distance subjects, but the 8MP sensor is modest for cropped close-ups in low light.

connectivity

5G SA/NSA, Wi-Fi 6, NFC5G speeds arrive on compatible networks in major cities; Wi-Fi 6 pairs well with modern routers; NFC enables contactless payments where supported, but no Google Play Services means app access is limited.

durability

IP53, 8.8mm glass, aluminum frameSurvives dust and vertical water spray (sink-level splash), but not submersion; the slim 8.8mm profile feels refined but offers less drop protection than heavier designs.
