    I honestly thought it would be a good phone, but I haven't even had it for a year and it's already disappointing me. It freezes a lot and it's annoying.

    It can't handle common apps like TikTok or WhatsApp; after playing a game, it freezes and sometimes overheats badly. It's annoying when it freezes, and I really don't recommend it at all; I'd say it's a rip-off to sell a phone like this. Plus, I'm a student, and it's frustrating when I have to do homework and can't even switch from WhatsApp to ChatGPT without it freezing. And switching between apps is a nightmare. You're better off saving your money and buying a better phone because its RAM and processor can't handle the software it has, and every update makes it slower. I wish they would stop making phones like this, but unfortunately, they're going to release more like the 15C, which is the same garbage but with a bigger battery. And they don't include anything that actually improves the phone.

    It's not highly recommended.

    Even with daily use and minimal demands, it lags or freezes at the slightest touch. It's no secret that it works well for the first few days, but after weeks or even days, its problems begin to surface. I wanted to test this myth and see if it's true. The only redeeming feature is the battery life, but the rest of its characteristics are subpar. Obviously, you don't expect too much for this price range, but as time goes on, the apps become, or already are, demanding, as are some elements of the operating system. Combined with the poor optimization of the operating system, this phone is failing much more frequently and creates a stressful experience even with basic use. Therefore, for anyone reading this, it's better to look for other, more effective options or increase your budget for other, more worthwhile options that will last a long time.

    Bad

    Honestly, it's not good even for social media, and if you want it for gaming, you're better off looking for something else. Besides taking forever to open, the camera is very basic.

    scam

    Not recommended for everyday use, nor do I recommend the 15c because they're both garbage.

    Pros
    • The design is nice.
    • The cameras are meh, they're barely decent
    • screen more or less
    Cons
    • IT FREEZES WITH EVERYTHING, even the interface
    • It comes with pre-installed garbage.
    • The only game you'll be able to play is Geometry Dash
    • The 120 Hz is useless because of the helium g81
    • It even gets stuck because it exists

    It was good, but nowadays it lags even on TikTok.

    If they put in a Qualcomm Snapdragon 820, it would last another 3 years smoothly.

    It's bad, plain and simple.

    It's a complete disgrace, go for an honor or something else, it crashes on TikTok, WhatsApp, everything is a complete mess, it's underground quality

What is a Ki score?
Ki is an automatic score based on the specifications and prices of devices. It is calculated using over 200 variables to rank smartphones, tablets and other devices from best to worst.
How do we calculate the Ki?

In this case, to determine the score we evaluate 5 general aspects:

  • Design and screen
  • Hardware and performance
  • Camera
  • Connectivity
  • Battery

Once these 5 factors have been rated, we introduce the price variable. This means that any two devices with the same ratings get a different Ki score for quality vs price.

Even a device objectively worse than another may have a higher Ki score if it has a better price.

Does the Ki score change?

The Ki varies as time goes by. As new devices with better specifications enter the market the Ki score of older devices will go down, always being compensated of their decrease in price.
