- Battery
- Lasts a day (about 13 hours 49 minutes in GSMArena's test), with 45W charging.
- Camera
- Decent 50MP main camera with stabilisation, but a basic 8MP wide-angle and no zoom lens.
- Speed
- Exynos 1480 is fine for apps and light games, but slow for the price.
- The catch
- After three price rises it costs ₹46,999, a lot for an older, slower chip; rivals are much faster.
