What reviewers say

Good

  • Large, smooth 120Hz screen
  • Battery lasts 1.5-2 days
  • IP64 splash resistance
  • Decent daylight photos
  • Stable everyday performance
  • Quick fingerprint reader
  • 2 OS updates and 4 years of patches

Not so good

  • Soft HD+ resolution
  • Hard to read in bright sun
  • Plain plastic design
  • Weak low-light photos and basic video stabilisation
  • Single, average speaker
  • Many pre-installed apps
  • 4GB model struggles with multitasking
  • Smartprix (Hindi)75/100Dec 2025

    Good for buyers after long battery life, a big screen and steady basic speed; not for camera or display-sharpness fans.

  • Business TodayRecommendedDec 2025

    A dependable budget 5G phone for basic daily use; gamers and photo lovers should look elsewhere.

  • Big screen, long battery and steady performance, with cluttered software, a notch and so-so cameras as the trade-offs.
