GoSolo Read / what it means7 takeaways
battery
5000mAh, roughly one day light useA 5000mAh capacity with a modest 6.7-inch AMOLED display means about 6 to 8 hours of screen-on time on a single charge, or approximately a full day if you are not streaming video or gaming for hours.
charging
25W wired, about 1 hour to full25W charging on a 5000mAh battery takes roughly 50 minutes to 1 hour and 15 minutes to reach 100%, so a quick top-up before heading out takes 20 to 30 minutes.
display
90Hz AMOLED, 800 nits peak brightnessThe 90Hz refresh rate makes scrolling through apps and feeds noticeably smooth, and 800 nits peak brightness means the 1080x2340 AMOLED screen stays legible in direct sunlight, though not as bright as flagship AMOLED panels.
performance
Dimensity 6300, handles everyday apps wellThe 8-core MediaTek Dimensity 6300 (2.4 GHz) with ARM Mali-G57 GPU runs everyday tasks (messaging, social media, browsing) smoothly, and can manage light gaming (puzzle games, casual titles at standard settings) without lag, but not sustained 3D gaming at high frame rates.
durability
IP54, splash resistant not waterproofIP54 rating means the phone resists splashes and dust in light conditions (a splash from a tap, dust in a pocket), but cannot survive full submersion in water or heavy rain exposure without risk.
connectivity
5G sub-6 bands, dual SIM nanoSIMThe phone supports 5G on mid-band frequencies (2600, 2100, 1800 MHz among others) where 5G is deployed in your region, plus dual nanoSIM slots for two phone numbers or two carriers on the same device.
storage
128GB internal, microSD up to 1.5TB128GB of fixed storage handles apps and photos for casual use, and a microSD card slot lets you expand by up to 1.5TB if you store large video libraries or archives locally.
