  • Not for everyday use

    This phone is quite good but has drawbacks such as it gets hot easily, the battery runs out quickly and the performance is not very strong even though it is a gaming phone.

  • Always problems

    At first it was a nice phone, heavy weight, but big. But after a while the performance declined... Crashes op the system... Had big problems with double sim, especially with double whatsapp, after a year or two it crashed, the second whatsapp didn't work anymore, changing the second sim into another phone gave loss of all the chats!!!
    Later more system problems, freeze, especially Google maps.... And since a few weeks total crash of the simconnection... It doesn't see the inserted sim.. And notifications after some action in an app disappear only after 2 minutes..... So the system has crashed... I did a reset to manufactury settings.... The systems works smooth, accept for the two big problems : NO SIM, and two minutes appearance of notifications..... Also big problems with changing WhatsApp to another phone, but I think that's also due to WhatsApp...
    Can't sell it anymore. worst smartphone ever,
    besides samsung..... ☺

  • A strong and wonderful phone, but its screen is fragile and from the first fall it will break

    Unfortunately, it fell to the floor from a height of no more than 100 cm (a table). It broke down at the time:
    Side vital game buttons + fingerprint.
    After less than 4 days it suddenly stopped working..
    It was checked by a technician to repair it. He concluded that the battery is not responding and that it is impossible to find spare parts.

    Because, unfortunately, the Middle East region is not among the markets in which a phone is offered for sale.

    Pros
    • Great screen, high quality
    • sound quality of the DIRAC speakers is fantast
    • Powerful speaker sound
    • Powerful processor and strong performance in games
    • two type-c charger ports
    • 65W fast charging
    Cons
    • Fragility
    • Excessively long
    • heavy weight
    • It cannot be controlled with one hand
    • It heats up quickly, but performance is not affect

Ki Cost-effective
Score
Not available
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.
