What reviewers say

Good

  • Telephoto camera is genuinely useful
  • Night shots beat its rival in their comparison
  • Attractive, comfortable design
  • Very long battery life (21 h PCMark) with fast charging
  • Smooth, customisable ColorOS
  • Gaming warmth stays modest
  • Eye-catching design and build

Not so good

  • Performance is only average for the price
  • No 120 fps in BGMI or COD Mobile yet
  • Screen less convincing in harsh sunlight
  • A bit expensive for what you get
  • No NFC
  • Weak, buzzy haptics
  • Always-on display turns off after seconds
  • 91mobiles80/100Jul 2026

    A stylish, camera-led phone with a useful telephoto and huge battery life, let down by middling speed for the money.

  • The Mobile Indian83/100Jul 2026

    A dependable everyday phone with a lovely screen and standout looks, but not for those chasing top speed or the best cameras.

  • CashifyRecommendedAug 2026

    After three weeks, a strong pick for buyers who care most about looks, stamina and portraits, if you accept some bloat and a premium price.

  • Croma Unboxed70/100Jul 2026

    A good-looking all-rounder with capable cameras and dependable daily speed, though the build and cameras are not the best in the Reno family.
