battery
5000mAh, roughly full day normal useWith moderate to heavy daily use (social media, messaging, occasional video), you'll likely stretch from morning through evening without needing a charge.
charging
18W wired, around 90-120 minutes to fullExpect a full recharge from empty to take roughly two hours, slow enough that you'll want to plug in overnight rather than grab a quick topup before leaving.
display
6.5 inch, 1080p, 90Hz refreshThe 90Hz panel keeps scrolling smooth compared to 60Hz phones, though the 1080p resolution on a 6.5 inch screen leaves text slightly less sharp than higher-pixel-density displays at the same size.
performance
MediaTek Dimensity 700, everyday processorThis 8-core chip handles messaging, browsing, social media, and light gaming without lag, but will struggle with demanding 3D games above medium settings or heavy multitasking.
connectivity
5G support, multiple LTE bandsThe phone can connect to 5G where available (FDD and TDD networks across many bands), though real-world speed gain depends entirely on your local network coverage and carrier deployment.
storage
64GB or 128GB, microSD expansion to 1TBThe base 64GB variant fills up quickly with apps and media, but a microSD card can add storage for photos and video if your carrier or region supports it.
