Reception

In a review, GSMArena criticized the design and the quality of the device. They claimed it lacked high-quality materials compared to other phones in its class and that people weren’t happy with its flush design. The IPS-NE61 display was praised for its black levels and pixel density of 424ppi (pixels per inch). However, the ARM Mali-T628 GPU isn't as powerful as its competitor GPUs. The audio output is good in quality and has average loudness compared to flagship phones. The device was compared to the 2014 Apple flagship as well as Samsung's Galaxy S5, Galaxy A7, and LG's G3.

Common issues include the reported loss of Wi-Fi and poor battery life. [6]
