What the reviewers said

PC-Welt DE

2/5Oct 26, 2026

A powerful, long-lasting phone with an excellent display and good sound, but bloated software, a plain design and a basic camera undermine it.

  • Strong performance from Snapdragon 8 Gen 5
  • Bright, high-refresh AMOLED display
  • Large 7,100 mAh battery lasts two days
  • Fast 90 W wired charging
  • IP68/IP69 water resistance and shock testing
  • Angular, plain design that is uncomfortable to hold
  • Basic camera, weak in low light
  • Excessive preinstalled bloatware and aggressive apps
  • AI features work unreliably
  • Only three Android updates, five years of security patches

86/100Oct 21, 2026

An affordable flagship-style phone with excellent battery life, a sturdy aluminum body and a bright 144 Hz display. Storage is limited to 256 GB and update support is modest.

  • Nearly 28 hours battery life in testing
  • Affordable price for its class
  • Premium aluminum body with IP68/IP69
  • Bright 144 Hz AMOLED display
  • Fast UFS 4.1 storage and fast Wi-Fi
  • Only 256 GB storage, no expansion slot
  • Update promise is limited and was inconsistent
  • USB 2.0 without wired video output
  • Significant heat buildup under full load
  • No zoom camera; weak ultra-wide camera

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.
