Let me start by saying this phone is a BEAST. The 6800mAh battery? It legit lasts me 2 full days with moderate use—streaming, scrolling, and even some gaming. No more frantic charger hunts at coffee shops!

The 6.8" HD screen is *chef’s kiss*—watching Netflix feels like a mini-theater, and colors pop like I’m holding a Samsung flagship (but without the price tag). Magnesium aluminum body? Sleek, but fingerprint-prone—keep a microfiber cloth handy.

Android 13 runs buttery smooth, and 6GB RAM handles my chaotic multitasking (10 Chrome tabs + Spotify + Instagram? No stutters). The 256GB storage swallowed my entire photo library with room to spare—though the expandable storage option is nice for future hoarding.

Now, the CAMERA. That 108MP lens? I took sunset shots that made my friends ask if I used a DSLR. Low-light performance surprised me—less grain than expected for this price range. Pro tip: Clean those raised lenses often; they attract smudges like magnets.

Dual SIM is my MVP feature. Work number + personal number on one device? Game-changer. Both slots supporting 5G simultaneously means no more ‘Oops, wrong SIM for data’ moments during travel.

Cons? The buttons DO rattle if you shake it (weird but harmless), and data transfer was fiddly—I ended up using Google Drive instead of cable migration. Also, that titanium orange back? Gorgeous, but screams ‘steal me’—get a case.

Verdict: For under $300? Absolute steal if you want flagship-esque features without emptying your wallet. Just don’t expect iPhone-level polish.
