performance

Exynos 980, 6–8GB RAMThis 2020 chipset with Cortex-A77 cores handles everyday tasks and light gaming (think MOBA, racing on mid settings), but will struggle with sustained heavy workloads or the latest 3D games at high settings.

battery

4500mAh, roughly 1 dayAbout 6 to 7 hours of screen-on time depending on display brightness and app use, so you'll need to top up most evenings unless you're a light user.

charging

18W wired, roughly 90 minutesA full charge from empty will take approximately 90 to 120 minutes, so it's not a quick top-up—plan ahead if the battery runs low during the day.

display

6.44″ AMOLED, 409ppi, HDR10The 1080×2400 pixel density (409ppi) is sharp enough for text and browsing at normal arm's length, and the AMOLED panel gives true blacks for video watching, though sunlight brightness is not specified and likely falls short of current flagships.

camera

48MP main, f/1.8 wide angleThe wide-angle sensor with PDAF and f/1.8 aperture captures well-lit daytime shots with good detail, but low-light performance is limited; the 8MP ultrawide (13mm) and 2MP macro are extras rather than reliable tools.

connectivity

5G SA/NSA, Wi-Fi ac, Bluetooth 5.15G support (bands 1, 3, 41, 77, 78) works where available and will switch to LTE (bands 1–41 including midband) in most areas; Bluetooth 5.1 with aptX HD is solid for wireless audio.

durability

8.7mm thin, 181g, optical fingerprintThe slim, light build (6.35×2.94 inch footprint) is pocketable and comfortable to hold, but there is no stated water resistance or Gorilla Glass protection, so everyday drops and splashes are a real risk.
