GoSolo Read / what it means6 takeaways
battery
5000mAh, roughly 1.5 to 2 days light useWith the Snapdragon 439 and 720p screen drawing modest power, light to moderate daily use (messaging, browsing, calls) should stretch past 24 hours on a charge.
charging
18W wired, roughly 1.5 to 2 hours full chargeUSB Type-C 2.0 with 18W input means you are looking at around 90 to 120 minutes from empty to full, slow enough that overnight charging is the practical route.
display
6.22 inch, 720p, 400 nits peakAt 270 ppi and 400 nits, text stays legible in indoor and partly cloudy light, but direct sunlight washes out the image; the 19:9 ratio gives you a tall, narrow screen for single-column apps.
performance
Snapdragon 439, 2GB or 3GB RAMThis 2016-era chipset and RAM pair handle calls, messaging, light browsing, and basic social media, but juggling multiple apps or any gaming will stall and stutter.
camera
13MP main, f/2.2, 1080p video, 8MP frontThe 13MP sensor with f/2.2 aperture captures daylight photos and 1080p clips at 30fps; low light and distant subjects suffer, and the 2MP depth sensor is cosmetic only.
durability
Gorilla Glass 5, water-repellent coating, plastic backThe front and frame are tougher than most budget phones, but the plastic back dents and the water-repellent coating (not IP rating) will not save it from submersion or heavy splashing.
