4/5May 17, 2023

A well-built, lightweight mid-ranger with a fast 144Hz pOLED screen and a strong low-light main camera, undermined by heavy heat during demanding gaming.

  • Lightweight, thin design with grippy vegan leather rear
  • Vibrant 144Hz pOLED display with HDR10+
  • Versatile main camera with wide f/1.4 aperture
  • Fast 68W TurboPower charging with charger included
  • Strong low-light photography for the price
  • Overheats noticeably during demanding gaming
  • Auto refresh rate never reaches the full 144Hz
  • Some bugs within the software
  • Selfie camera images look washed out
  • Fixed 144Hz mode can drain battery

Verdicts, pros and cons are short summaries in our words of each publisher's review; scores are as the publisher gave them. Specs are taken from the reviews' spec boxes — where they differ, we show the value most of them give; price is the US launch price of the base model. Read the originals for the full picture.
