Cons
Our editorial view of this model’s strengths and limitations.
There is no dedicated telephoto camera. Distant subjects rely on digital zoom, which loses fine textures as you zoom further. A phone with optical zoom is more convenient for concerts, wildlife or portraits from a distance.
There is no microSD slot, so storage cannot be expanded with a card. The system and apps use some of the 256 GB. If you record plenty of video, you will need to move files to a computer or cloud storage periodically.
The USB-C port is limited to USB 2.0 data speeds. That is fine for charging, but large videos and backups take longer to copy over a cable. Keep this in mind if you regularly transfer tens of gigabytes to a computer.
