Features: 

  • 4 GB RAM | 64 GB ROM | Expandable Upto 2 TB.
  • 15.9 cm (6.26 inch) Full HD+ Display with Notch Design.
  • 12MP (f 1.8) + 5MP (Depth Sensor) | 13MP Front Camera.
  • 5000 mAh Battery.
  • Qualcomm Snapdragon 660 Octa Core Processor.
  • Pure Android 8.1 Oreo (Stock). 
  • Dual Nano Sim Slot with Dedicted Micro SD.

Pros:

  • The phone comes with a Full HD+ notch design and most importantly the notch is very small and due to this reason the look of the phone is much better.
  • In budget phones we normally get old Gorilla Glass, in this model we are getting Gorilla Glass 6 (Latest)
  • The phone comes with a very powerful processor Qualcomm Snapdragon 660 SOC with is under clocked at 1.96 GHz instead of 2.2 GHz.
  • Due to Stock Android the phone is free of bloatware.
  • There is no such heating issue in the phone.
  • The Auto Brightness calibration is much better than the previous version.
  • The batter backup is superb due to 5000 mAH battery with 2 day battery backup with normal usage.
  • The Finger Print scanner is much improved than M1 Pro. (Old Version)
  • The camera is much improved than before. In outdoor condition the camera performs decently but in indoor lighting the camera performs on an average side.
  • The weight is very light in-spite of 5000 mAH battery.

Cons:

  • The back side of the phone is made of plastic and not glass, as a result the back side is scratch prone.
  • It supports only 2.4 GHz Wifi and not 5 GHz.
  • No Fast Charging Support.
  • The C type Port is not available and Micro USB type is available.
Verdict: This phone is one the best budget phone that comes under 15000. If camera is not the top priority but the performance is the priority then one should go for this phone positively.
I won't say the camera is bad but its average. 

Price: 12999 (32GB), 14999 (64GB), 16999 (64GB with 6GB RAM)
