Customer Review
Reviewed in India on 15 July 2023
Pros:
1. Display- peak brightness (1000 nits)works well in moderately sunny environments... 120hz refresh rate no lag in app shifting or video playback... Works well for mid size games but not a gaming mobile.
2. One UI- excellent camera software, customisable wallpapers, widgets, panels. Better multitasking and background app functioning
3. No problems of over heating so far even with a 500mAh battery smaller than M series
4. Under display finger print is highly accurate
5. Daylight/high light photography is excellent, even videography. Sensors are great, can easily focus on subject, adjust brightness and provide beautification options
6. Excellent device care, person well being and blue light filter options to monitor your usage and longevity of phone
Cons:
1.500mAh battery does not last over 3-4hrs if you're a heavy user... Lasts for about a day and a half if you are light user which is a confusing problem.. especially considering it has a better processor and chipset than it's successor a54..
2. Low-light photography is the worst.. 0/5. Phones of less than half price in Mseries have better sensors... main Camera does not focus and goes blur/grainy at night, selfie camera is nothing but grainy in low light conditions... Disappointing as it's such an easily fixable issue. Ultrawide camera is less than impressive, loses overe 40% detail and clarity in again low light situations.
3. Videography is great, but if using the super steady mode in against the sun conditions or in light shifting conditions, camera takes a good few seconds to adjust, about 20% clarity and brightness is lost in this mode as well.
Neutral:
Camera technology in the hardware is optimal (not impressive because it's easily expected of a mid range priced phone) but the AI and software work of the camera is surprising... Can't decide yet if it's good or bad. The photos which are presented are noticeably processed and beautified which in cases of portraits or night photos can be useful but at the same time an essence of rawness and reality is lost when checking landscape pictures or macro pictures...
