What reviewers say
Distilled from the video reviewers — the score, what they praise, where they push back.?
Reviewers praise
- Aluminum frame and Gorilla Glass Victus+ front give it a genuinely premium build that rivals flagship feel
- 5,000 mAh battery delivers strong all-day endurance across multiple reviewer stress tests
- 6.6-inch Super AMOLED display is sharp, bright, and smooth at 120 Hz
Reviewers push back
- Exynos 1480 chipset shows throttling and struggles with demanding games at high settings, running noticeably warm under load
- Under-display optical fingerprint sensor is slower and less consistent than ultrasonic alternatives
- No headphone jack, no charger in the box, and limited flagship AI software features
A well-built mid-range phone with a premium aluminum-and-glass frame, strong battery life, and solid cameras, held back by a middling Exynos chipset and a few software annoyances.
Thermal performance divides reviewers: GSMArena found no meaningful throttling in stress tests, while Gadget Sidekick observed throttling to 74% of peak performance and sustained heat above 44°C during gaming
