The bright 120Hz display is praised, though the panel details differ slightly between reviews. — Tech Advisor, PC-Welt, Trusted Reviews
Software is criticised for bloatware, with too many preinstalled apps. — Tech Advisor, SmartWorld, PC-Welt, Trusted Reviews
Where they disagree
SmartWorld and Trusted Reviews also flag specific issues like the virtual proximity sensor and background battery drain, which the other reviews do not mention. — SmartWorld, Trusted Reviews
Build is praised for IP68 or IP69K rating and an aluminum or elegant design, while Trusted Reviews calls the Iron Man finish cheap and lackluster. — SmartWorld, Trusted Reviews, PC-Welt

Excellent performance and battery for the money, with compromises in software bloat and cameras. A strong budget gaming pick, though not an instant recommendation.
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.
