Granted, you’ll probably put a case on it anyway so you won’t notice this all the time, but it’s worth mentioning since other similarly-priced phones I’ve tried have had more premium designs. Nothing included the exclusive MediaTek Dimensity 7350 Pro which offers better CPU and GPU performance than most phones in this price range, and in my testing, I haven’t run into any major hiccups. The rear 50MP main and ultra-wide cameras are passable during the day, but any sort of light degradation can made these sensors freak out and load up pictures with noise and unbalanced colors.
