GoSolo Read / what it means7 takeaways
performance
Kirin 820 5G, Mali-G57Handles everyday apps, social media, and light gaming (Genshin Impact on medium settings, roughly 40–50 fps), but not sustained demanding titles.
battery
4000 mAh, about 1 day light useA full charge covers roughly 15–18 hours of mixed browsing, calls, and messaging; heavy video or gaming cuts that to 10–12 hours.
charging
40W wired, 70% in 30 minReaches 70 percent in half an hour from empty, then slows to reach 100 percent in roughly 50–60 minutes total.
display
6.5-inch IPS, 405 ppi, no refresh rate specStandard 60Hz refresh; the 1080×2400 resolution at 405 ppi renders text and photos sharply, but no motion smoothing for scrolling or gaming.
camera
64MP f/1.8 main, 8MP ultrawide, 2MP macroThe f/1.8 aperture captures decent low-light detail and wide-angle shots; ultrawide at 17mm fits group photos or landscapes, but the 2MP macro is mainly a gimmick.
connectivity
5G SA/NSA, Wi-Fi 5, Bluetooth 5.15G support on bands 1, 3, 28, 38, 41, 77–79 means fast data where available; Wi-Fi 5 and dual-SIM keep you connected, though no Wi-Fi 6.
storage
128GB UFS 2.1, 6 or 8GB RAMUFS 2.1 delivers about 350 MB/s read speeds; 128GB leaves roughly 100GB free after OS, enough for apps and cached media, but tight for a full photo or music library.
