Design

The first thing is very noticeable is the design. The Ultra-thin design makes this phone a premium look. The body is full metal unibody. It also has “grippable texture” that makes a different look. The Dimensions are 7.3mm Thickness, 158.7mm Height, 75.4mm Width and 168g Weight, Which is really good. To make this phone thin, they also removed some useful things that we really need. They removed 3.5mm jack and external SD card slot system. So you have to use a type-C Audio adapter that they are giving you with “Package Contents”. On the other side, the sd card slot has also removed. So you can’t use external sd card storage on your phone.

Camera

The most attracting side of this phone is the dual AI camera which takes really good photos in daylight and as well as low light situation. This is the best camera in this budget till now. The rear cameras are 20MP and 12MP. The 20MP camera has 2.0μm pixels and f/1.75 large aperture with SONY IMX376 sensor. The 12MP camera has 1.25μm pixels and large f/1.75 aperture with SONY IMX486 sensor. They implemented a new photo processing system called “4-in-1 pixel binning technique” which reduces the noise of the picture.

The Front Camera is 20MP with 2.0μm pixels, large f/2.2 aperture, and used SONY IMX376 sensor. They also implemented the “4-in-1 Super Pixel binning technique“.

In the video recording section, you can record video in 4K at 30fps and take slow-motion video in 720p at 120fps. The EIS only supports on 1080p recording at 60fps.
