An excellent upper mid-range phone with strong cameras, especially the telephoto, but pricing is steep and competition is tough.

  • Excellent 5x telephoto camera
  • Compact and attractive design
  • Feature-packed software
  • Solid battery life and fast charging
  • Bright OLED display with good colour
  • No wireless charging
  • Software support shorter than some rivals
  • Plastic frame feels less premium
  • Higher price than last year
  • Ultrawide camera weaker than other lenses

A capable, well-priced Android phone with strong performance and a great HyperOS experience, held back by a plain design, muddy blacks and a grabby screen.

  • Fantastic performance for the price
  • HyperOS is a smooth, clutter-free Android skin
  • Capable and versatile three-camera system
  • Well priced considering the specs
  • Around three days of battery life
  • First-party apps are largely useless
  • Screen feels grabby when scrolling
  • Black tones look muddy and too dark
  • Design looks plain and closely resembles iPhone 16 Pro

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.
