On the rear, you get a 50MP main camera accompanied by a secondary sensor, with support for 1080p video recording at 30fps.

Additional features include a side-mounted fingerprint scanner, dual SIM support, NFC, an IR blaster, Bluetooth 5.1, Wi-Fi connectivity, Dolby Atmos audio, and an IP64 rating for dust and splash resistance.

The phone runs on Android 15 with HyperOS 2 out of the box and comes in White and Black color options.

Pricing starts at $189 for the 6GB/128GB variant, while the higher-end 8GB/256GB model is priced at $229, making it a compelling choice for users looking for long battery life and smooth display performance on a budget.
