    Decent sound, disastrous photos, very mediocre screen

    The IPS screen is of very poor quality. It can hurt your eyes if you spend too much time looking at it. Yet it's an IPS, no flickering, no PWM. There's a slight pinkish tint to it. As a result, the color rendering is unrealistic... disappointing. The camera: saturates the light, washed out... even in broad daylight. So when the light disappears... Audio: the quality is decent. The "ear" sound is sufficient. Hands-free is also good, but the quality is less exceptional. Reception: seems a bit hit-or-miss. Sometimes it works. But the person on the other end hears me as if I were underwater. While at other times, there's no problem... even in the same location. Battery: for very limited use, mainly for calls, it easily lasts two days. I hesitated for a long time between getting an "old" processor and an IPS screen. I chose this phone for its exceptionally low SAR rating. So, I'm not disappointed; it lets you make phone calls without frying your head. However, for everything else, it's close to a zero.

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.
